📍 1066 W Taylor St, Chicago, IL 60607

Demitasse Cafe is a small, breakfast-and-lunch-only counter tucked between the bigger names on Taylor Street, the kind of place locals mention before tourists do.

$

Stuffed French toast topped with whipped cream and strawberries is the dish people keep coming back for, and the short hours — closed by mid-afternoon, closed entirely on Mondays — say everything about who this place is actually for. It doesn't run a happy hour or a promo code; it barely runs a website.

What it has instead is a loyal neighborhood following and reportedly one of the better Google ratings on the whole strip.
