Reviews for Dollop Coffee Co. in Chicago, IL
The space itself is comfy, inviting. They appear to offer some delicious breakfast and lunch items. I was there, however, for... espresso... When I ordered, I had asked if they could recommend one of their roasts for an espresso which would produce abright, fruity profile. Unfortunately, I was told, they only offer one option for espresso. The shot was full-bodied and roasty,more of a classic profile - not at all what I was after. They sell and serve lighter roasts; really wish they would've dug alittle deeper to find the profile I was hoping for. Read more
Dori & Omar are wonderful, even handling rude customers, in this case, me. I was disappointed that they didn?t have pour-overs,... and only one batch brew: a blend ?medium roast?, whereas I?m an insufferable coffee nerd, and thus demand single origin lightroast. In town from Detroit for a conference, I had corralled my workmates to gather there, so I relented?with a scowl. WILLCOMPLETE LATER Read more
One of my favorite cafes. Basically go here 4 times a week. Their cappuccinos and ice chai lattes are my favorite. They also... have Beacon Donuts but you have to get there early or they will be sold out! Also delicious bagels and great outdoor seating! Read more
I?m not sure how this place has such great reviews. Got the iced coffee and it wasn?t great. They don?t even ask you how you?d... like it? Any syrups? Had to ask them if they had any to which the staff seem to grudgingly grab it under the counter andsquirted it into my cup. What?s up with the service? Rather give my business somewhere else to be honest. Read more
We have been their regular customers and usually buys bagel with coffee. Honestly, coffee was never great but it?s the closest... cafe which gives option of bagel and coffee. Bagel was something which I personally always liked. However, it?s been couple ofmonths, they have started adding a lot of salt on top of bagel. I ignored for a while thinking it?s not a big deal and mistakehappens from everyone. But the amount of salt has been increasing dramatically. I have to throw upper half always since last fewmonths. You can see in the picture I have uploaded. White granular visible on top of the bagel is all salt. It?s still less thanactually we received bcoz I heated it up and removed some salt by hand. Other than salt issue, Bagel is tasty and perfect chewywith the combination of coffee. So, deserves 2 stars at this moment. Another issue we have experienced is with female staff. Ican?t remember her name but she?s mostly rude with me and my husband. And always messes up with order. Nothing major though.However, I felt that she?s rude just with us and polite with others! What message are you trying to give.? I?ll be more thanhappy to edit or remove this review once issues are resolved.. Read more
Moved to Chicago last year, and found this shop to be convenient. Over the past few months, I've been met with rude staff.... Specifically a man with sleeve tattoos, who also wears glasses. I have never written a review in my life, because it's not thatdeep, and almost redundant. However, I feel this is not an isolated incident and have heard of more people being met with rudeattitude from staff. Read more
My favorite part of traveling is finding small businesses to support. Especially coffee shops. This coffee shop was a quick walk... from my hotel and had the cutest interior decor. I wanted it to be great. However, when I was met with rude and dismissivestaff members it quickly ruined the entire experience. The person I was with felt so uncomfortable with the attitudes of one ofthe staff members that they didn?t order additional items. I I easily would have returned to this spot every morning during theduration of my stay. Instead I made time to go much farther to a much nicer, friendly staffed coffee shop instead. Mysuggestion? check your staffing before you have no customers left. Read more
My favorite cafe in Chicago?.and I spent 18 yrs in Europe. Elia the manager becomes a friend to everyone in the... neighborhood!!! Omar says good morning and remembers my name and makes my favorite coffee ?? without me uttering a word. Thecoffee also tastes better - a Carmel taste to the black unsweetened drip. I bring all my friends here - they have fallen in lovewith the coziest best cafe in Chicago. Also summer can sit outside in a private courtyard. Read more
