"Comfy community focused café featuring Palestinian dishes and lots of chamomile. Everything we got was pretty good, only downside for the place as a whole is if you have a high tree nut sensitivity it's either in a lot of items or there's a risk of cross contamination. Definitely worth dropping in if you're near by!"

"if i lived in chicago, this is where you would find me as a second home. the entire cafe is like a big, warm hug as soon as you walk in. i get emotional in such community spaces so maybe it showed on my face as i ordered, but the servers were family-like kind and sweet. it felt like i was home with my cousins who were making me tea in their home kitchen. i am in love with the grassroots decor, i could spend hours reading every sheet of paper, flyer, and picture inside. the leave a book, take a book concept only added to the connection. i enjoyed my iced mint tea, muhammara, and chicken fatayer. i asked to order zaatar to finish off my olive oil dipping and they provided it complimentary. since we can’t enter palestine, this cafe brought palestine to us and im so grateful."

"Nabala Cafe is a great addition to the neighborhood! The food and drinks are delicious and reasonably priced and the baristas make excellent recommendations. I also love that it’s open later than most other coffee shops nearby! My only downside is that it’s often tough to get a table, but it’s hard to fault them for being so loved and busy."

"I came here for the first time about a month ago for my birthday! Had a latte, a croissant, and a donut, all were super tasty!! The atmosphere was great. Smiles, everyone was friendly, and the person that checked us out on the counter was super nice and kept joking with me and my partner when we ordered the croissant (QUASSOONNN!) You don’t always find friendly people like that, and I appreciate that the staff was so nice!"

"The rainy July 4th morning has brought me here; got my feb decaf iced latte; trying to work a bit but mostly chilling. Nabala got everything for me- feb coffees, comfort atmosphere, soothing music! This a very friendly and welcoming place I often come. If you are around, or visiting Chicago- plz dont miss coffee here! 😊"
