Die besten Cafés in Lakeshore East

This was a lovely experience! The seating was comfortable, the tables far enough apart to keep noise and claustrophobia away, the food was outstanding, the service charming and kind, the drinks were brilliant. Food: Even simple seeming stuff had complex flavors, the steak was PERFECT, the sauces original. The cocktails had a LOT going on (we ordered what seemed like relatively interesting ones).

Julianne is the best!! Hopefully Starbucks Reserve is paying her well 😁 She is so fun, personable, and knowledgeable. I learned a ton about the art/technique of making an espresso martini!

My daughter and I had dinner at Chapel Street Cafe last nite and loved it. John, our waiter was a lot of fun, very knowledgeable and attentive. We had Chicago Restaurant week menu including the wine pairing- great choices! The whittlesea delish! The Carleton- Devine! St Kilda -exceeded our expectations, Lord Dudley - so big I took some home! Pannecotta - better and lighter than expected! All and all, a wonderful neighborhood gem. Worth the trip, even if you’re not from the neighborhood!! Come for a delicious Aussie treat, any time of day.

This is a gorgeous spot with incredible food. The space is small, but very atmospheric. I am thrilled to have found this place, I will definitely be returning.

Cool and eclectic atmosphere. Creative but grounded menu. Looking forward to trying at a time when i’m not overstuffed from late lunch.
