"Mandala Cafe is a lovely spot with a cozy atmosphere and great service here in Pilsen. Their avocado toast is absolutely wonderful—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. I also tried their signature Mandala coffee, which had a rich and smooth taste, though it was a bit too sweet for my preference. If you enjoy sweeter coffee, you’ll probably love it! Overall, it’s a great place for a relaxed breakfast or coffee break."

"Mandala cafe Barista was a one woman machine. She made our drinks, the food and was the order taker. Hard working staff! Our various coffee drinks were well made. The bagel with lavender latte was tasty. The Nutella spread on the bagel was generous. The ice chai was spicy and good. Even the peanut butter was delicious. Espresso - on point. Pilsen deserves such a cafe. They have the internets here also."

"Disappointed on the bagel today. It was presented with having a reasonable amount of cream cheese but what we got was a very thin layer. When asked if I could have a bit more, I was told it would be an extra $2 on a $8 bagel already. Drinks were not worth the $7s for a small. There are definitely other coffee shops in the are by far better."

"Extremely expensive and not great quality food. I understand rent on 18th street may be higher but $9 for a latte and $13 for a croissant sandwich with barely any bacon on it is insane."

"I wasn’t in a rush, so it was the perfect vibe to sit back and enjoy my coffee. The barista helped me by adding hazelnut to the coconut flavor I picked for my cappuccino. Absolutely loved the smell & taste!"
