Chicago's coffee culture is being enriched by a growing number of Latino-owned coffee shops that offer a unique blend of traditional and innovative beverages. These cafes not only serve delicious drinks but also provide a sense of community and cultural pride. Among the standout spots is Mi Corazón Cafe in Pilsen, where Xiomara Casas honors her grandmother with café de olla, a traditional Mexican coffee. Tasa Coffee Roasters in Humboldt Park, founded by Jackie and Pierre Marquez during the pandemic, offers a coco flan iced latte inspired by family recipes. Casa Cactus in Albany Park serves a creamy horchata latte on draft, symbolizing immigrant resilience. The Stockyard Coffeehouse in Bridgeport, run by sisters Mayra and Guadalupe Carranza, offers a churro latte and conchas that evoke nostalgia. Lastly, Pink Owl Cafe in Berwyn, founded by Alex Herrera, features a unique brujería iced latte and a supportive community spirit. These cafes are more than just places to grab a coffee; they are cultural hubs that celebrate Latino heritage and community.
