"This charming little shop offers a delightful selection of artisan goods and coffee shop treats. I indulged in their banana bread latte and a breakfast sandwich, which quickly became one of my all-time favorites. The freshly made sandwich was a culinary delight, and the coffee was perfectly balanced, not overly sweet. The friendly staff added to the overall pleasant experience."

"My favorite spot to grab a matcha, and get thee most delicious sandwich the Bird 😋.Love the music, the staff is sweet & sincere, because the building is on the Northside of the street they get such pretty natural lighting. And its a micro convenient store, they have cat food, paper towels, fresh flowers, olives, lots of local stuff - its so cute."

"I’ve been to Spoke & Bird three times now, and while the first two were “just okay,” this third visit made it clear that this café doesn’t respect its customers or the neighborhood it’s trying to profit from. There were four people behind the counter, yet it still took over 20 minutes just to get our coffees and a breakfast sandwich. We only received our food after asking—where we were then handed items that had clearly been sitting out. The staff was polite enough, but there was absolutely no urgency, no work ethic, and no respect for the customer’s time. What makes this even more disappointing is that Spoke & Bird loves to advertise with the phrase: “Be local. Act local. Buy local.” But if you’re going to stake your identity on being a neighborhood spot, you need to actually show care for the locals who support you. Instead, what we experienced was exactly the opposite—a business that wears “local” like a marketing badge while operating with the same careless detachment that fuels gentrification: taking space, collecting money, but offering very little in return. If your motto is “Be local. Act local. Buy local,” then here’s mine after this visit: “Be better. Act accountable. Serve your customers."

"So happy this neighborhood spot opened back up in Pilsen! The team was super friendly and I enjoyed browsing all the local pantry items they have stocked while my to-go sandwiches were being made. The French dip is truly inspired and a big fan of the chicken Caesar as well as that Jambon!!! Fresh baked bread coupled with the highest quality ingredients make for a perfect sandwich. We are looking forward to trying the rest of the menu. See you soon :)"

"Great pastries. They have really great coffee around $4 a cup, very attentive to weight, brew time , temp...so if you're a coffee lover you'll appreciate how they make the coffee"
