While this coffee shop doesn’t look like much from the outside, the interior is delightful. There are vintage movie posters for cult classics and nerdy favorites. It was a very fun spot to be for a cult film fan. The honey latte is to die for. I feel in love with this particular style of latte in Hawaii several years ago and so far, the best honey latte I’ve found stateside has been at Wormhole. The donuts were delicious and they had plenty in stock even late into the morning. Very LGBTQ+ and vegan friendly.

I was told to come here by a friend, and I am very glad I did! I absolutely adore the whole aesthetic of the place, a vintage look that really sets the atmosphere! Great service, the staff were lovely and while the menu had some high prices- it was worth it for the experience. I would definitely come here again to enjoy the layout and the area surrounding this adorable cafe. If you are out exploring Wicker Park, stop by and give them some support!

Excellent coffee with a great vibe for us nostalgia-obsessed 80s-90s kids. Impressed with the Covid layout changes. Great staff, fast service.

Great coffee shop with super cool decor! Came here for coffee, and loved how unique and delicious all of the drinks looked! I ended up getting a ghostly trio latte, (white miso caramel and black sesame) and my friend got a koopa troopa latte (chocolate peanut butter) They had lots of vegan options which was great. Coffee is local and tasty. Make sure you have a mask, they are strictly enforced. There’s plenty of seating inside in my opinion, and the staff was very friendly. -1 star because the coffee was quite pricey, but I’d love to come back and try some other drinks!

This place would be a 5 star if they didn’t have such pretentious and genuinely rude folks working behind the counter. I was in with my girlfriend this last weekend and a couple came in without masks. They asked if there were extras behind the counter they could have when the man behind the counter blurted “oh my god, you’re not carrying a mask during a global pandemic? How embarrassing for you!”All politics aside, there is no need to be shaming anyone. The way this guy treated these customers was unnecessary, unprofessional, and just plain ridiculous.I will never support an establishment that puts others down and makes them feel small - and I hope nobody else does either.Shame on you, wormhole.

Came in for the first time since I live near by and saw they had good coffee and other options. We came inside and there was no indoor seating so we stood and waited to order while the staff was having a conversation, when they were done thats when we were taken care of. The decor is nice and the latte was OK, perhaps they were in a hurry to get back to their conversation. There is paid parking on the street. Ill probably stop by the order Wormhole thats further away, but will give it a shot.

One of the best coffee ☕️ I’ve ever had 10/10👅

Favorite coffee place in Chicago though the barista was a bit rude last time I was in there. Hoping it was a one time thing though! Definitely get the koopa troopa

Awesome customer service. I got three vegan donuts. Ill definitely be back.

Super friendly staff and delicious coffee!The café has some neat decor, too.Definitely check this place out.

Tried the Vanilla Bean and it was divine! I also asked for cinnamon after the first sip, definitely recommend- elevates an already elevated experience. Will be back to explore the rest of the menu

Very quiet, which was fine for me considering I was looking for an easy Wifi and plug. The reviews online are spot on. Enjoyed my drink and a recharge of my machine.

Review Date: May 27th, 2015Let me preface this by saying I have two reviews for this place in my head. The coffee/baked goods would give this place a 2.5-3/5… but due to the 80’s nostalgic factor, I would give this a 5/5. So it averages out to about a 4/5.While browsing for things to do in Chicago, IL, I came across this nifty coffeehouse. It serves coffee and has an 80’s theme to it. So I figured I would give it a shot since it seems right up my alley.They have a very unique menu for drinks. It’s hard to describe, but I could only order what was specifically on the menu? So I grabbed a Peanut Butter Koopa-Troopa, thinking the Peanut Butter/Chocolate blend would be delicious. It really wasn’t. I also grabbed a muffin of some kind and that was ok.But where they lacked (imo) on coffee/food, they made up in the nostalgic 80’s theme. They have a freaking DeLorean… in a coffeehouse! On a couch was sitting an E.T. stuffed figure, so I sat next to him and just sat in awe. They really hit the nail on the head for decor.Maybe it was an off day. Maybe I was just expecting something different. Maybe a re-visit would nail this place a 5/5. As always, never subject your opinions to a review. Go and try a place yourself and form your own opinion.

I recently ate lunch with my father. Vegetarians and meat eaters alike ordered a number of dishes. I must say that we all had a good time. I finished with a cup of coffee and a delicious slice of cake, as well as beautiful food and outstanding service from the professional staff. The upstairs area was ideal for a cup of tea and a chat. Thank you incredibly much!

For real, I adore this coffee shop! Im glad theyve opened a new branch near my home. For my part, it was already simple to get my favorite coffee every morning and evening. Fantastic interior design! For the first time, it was a fun experience for me. Im sure Ill return to this location again and again. A5 stars! That has been proposed!

Ive been a regular and loyal customer of this coffee shop for years. It was my daily routine before going to work to sample their best-tasting coffee in town. I enjoyed their muffin as well, though it wasnt as sweet as other bakeries muffins. I still buy some extras for my coworkers because they enjoy it as well!

Love it! Cool but Rude was good blend of ginger and latte. drawing helps as well~

Great local coffee spot!! Im an 80s kid, so the theme and vibe took me back, wayyyy back. People are very friendly and gave a good recommendation.

The place is packed with 80s memorabilia so theres plenty to see and chat about. Its fun to look around the stuff in there. Coffee is good. Good vibe and friendly staff. One of my fav coffee shop in Chicago,

LOVE THIS PLACE! Cannot imagine my day or the neighborhood without it.

I like their interior because it was so cozy, and it can relieve your stress. I also like their drinks and desserts because it was all tasty and mouthwatering. I didnt regret my decision to visit your shop. A great job to all of you! You must be highly recommended to everyone! Thanks!

If I have free time, I like to go to this coffee shop since I really enjoy their coffee. Its quite delicious. I also like their stores layout.

A beloved fave of the neighborhood. Cant go wrong with their specialty drinks, so much flavor packed into one little cup! Try it hot or iced, incredible either way!

Coffee was tasty but the people working there were not friendly and the atmosphere felt weird and pretentious. Maybe I’m not cool? Idk lol. A little expensive too. The music and the decor were great, so I’ll give ya 2 stars for that.

Wormhole is a Chicago staple, & unlike some other “trendy” places they don’t slack at all on their drinks. Everything I’ve tried has been amazing!

It was alright. The espresso was good and priced a little higher than normal but reasonable ($4). They have more to offer other than just coffee (clothing, mugs, etc). Need to comeback once there are lesser restrictions because its takeout only.

Not only is their coffee some of the best in Chicago, but if you for some reason are a monster who doesnt like the taste, they have all sorts of crazy awesome flavors too; the café miel is particularly exceptional. The theme of the whole place is also a super fun, vintage sci-fi, and the staff are incredibly friendly!

The new standard for giving something 5 stars is - does this place have a Delorean hanging from the ceiling? If so, instant 5 stars

Always love wormhole, the decor and the atmosphere. The decoration on top in the foam is always fun. Was closed up to a VERY small area however and not limiting who was entering. Made it very crowded.

Its like a museum and coffee shop at the same time. Friendly service and the coffee tasted so natural (peanut butter, honey, etc.)

This is hands-down my favorite coffee shop in Chicago. Unique ambiance and amazing coffee and tea and a great selection of pastries. This is a place not to miss it visiting Chicago.

Great tasting coffee and very good service! Fun back to the future themed cafe

I visited here last month and the wifi was poor. You also couldnt use the bathroom. The person working at the time was unfriendly. I wanted to give a positive review as I am a Back to the Future fan but just cannot. The coffee is average (to be honest The coffee Dunkin Donuts is better).

Love the place!!! Hope they reopen completely soon!!! Is maybe one of the coffee places you have to go when in Chicago. If you feel bold try one of the specialties, you wont regret it at all!!

This place has plenty of character, and at least a few unique options for coffee drinks. I had the Cool But Rude and it delivered a pleasantly memorable coffee experience with strong hints of ginger and curry sauce. Health concerns aside, the overall taste was better with whole milk versus skim milk.Its also worthy to note that the decor inside the place was fantastic for any vintage 1980s fan. From the DeLorean from Back to the Future to the original Game Boy to an original Apple computer, there are plenty of bits of eye candy. Overall, Id certainly recommend trying this place at least once.

A major disappointment considering its lineage. The food was average and the atmosphere was just ok. The mussels, although prepared well were at best one half an appetizer portion with regular American fries. The bread for the average pate was entirely too massive the dessert offering was equally disappointing. I wont go back given the choices available in chicago

Coffee was mediocre. Price was too high, Over 5 bucks for a tiny little cup. Service was so so. Place is cute.

This coffee shop is super cool, the late 80s early 90s movie theme is very cool. They even have a DeLorean in the back. This place is very unique and has a ton of personality. The chai tea latte I had was great, as well as my ham and cheese croissant. They offer Wifi and some lounge seats where you can chill and get some work done.

One of the coolest places I’ve ever been to. As soon as I stepped foot into this place, I immediately felt like I walked into my own personal 80’s film nerd utopia. Came here on an early Sunday morning and was pleasantly surprised by how spacious it was. Plenty of couches and desks to sit in but it gets more filled as the day rolls on.Pretty good drink and pastry item selections. They even have bowls of cereal you can order. Feels like the type of place my teenage, movie nerd self would approve of.

This place wasn’t my destination, but looking for a nearby coffee shop I was ecstatic. Fantastic coffee and people. Great 80’s themed aesthetics. I want to live here :)

Amazing inventive drinks. This past trip they had 6ish lattes to choose from. Also the decor is super cool

Best coffee Ive had in the area. Service was kind & helpful. Definitely coming back

This the absolute coolest coffee shop ever. Video game, pop culture, 80s, and general nerd references abound, not to mention the full-size DeLorean time machine in the back! Oh, and the coffee and staff are fantastic as well. The Cool but Rude ginger curry latte is the nectar of the gods. Get up to 88 mph, collect the Triforce pieces, and get your butt in this place immediately.

Highly recommend this exceptional coffee shop. Its very comfy and I love the nerdy decorations, and most important they make a very good cup of coffee. Great place to hang out.

I had the latte and triple chocolate scone. Both were delicious. The barista was very friendly, asked how my day was going. We also brought our 3 month old and there was plenty of room for a stroller.

I love coming here before or after classes or whenever Im in a bad mood. The baristas and even the art put a smile on my face. I really enjoy the unique coffee options. Would highly recommend if youre looking for a cool place to chill with your friends on a rainy day too. :)

Absolutely LOVED this spot. The people. The attention. The 80s ambience (music and decor). And the cappuccino. Its the whole package and its reasonably priced too.

Wont make change for any type of cash. Drink was pretty good.

Nice, quiet spot. Feels like youre in your friends basement in 1986, in a good way. The coffee is top notch and the staff is helpful and friendly. Will be visiting again.

Great coffee, OG Wicker Park vibes

I take my tinder dates here and I don’t blame the place for the bozos I swipe right for

Good coffee, better than Starbucks:)

Marvelous! This coffee shop was a nice place indeed. They deserve great ratings. I need to come back because its a good one. They strive to provide us the best service that exceeds our expectations. From the beginning until the end of the day, I was extremely grateful to visit this place. Cheers to more customers in the future.

What a lil slice of awesome this place is! We stumbled in during a downpour, had an amazing cup of coffee, and met some random awesome folks! Definitely pop in if youre ever in the neighborhood.

Love their lattes!!

It was fine. The space had some cools things but it was really cluttered and there was only two people working who werent all that friendly. I wasnt impressed.

Fun drinks and the most delicious espresso!!! The staff is wonderful, too :)

This has probably become one of my favorite coffee shops in Chicago. Its tied with Sawada for sure. They were pulling on my heartstrings when I noticed that they were carrying Videri chocolates, considering the fact that Im from Raleigh, North Carolina! The lady who took my order was super kind to me, even though I arrived right before they closed. The cold brew was delicious! So was the iced Triforce that I order! I will be returning here weekly when I visit the city.

Amazing foods .sweets and salads fresh every day

Cozy and dark coffee shop. Traveling down memory lane with posters of Heathers, beetle juice, and Big Trouble in Little China. Drank the Koopa Troopa peanut butter mousse dark chocolate latte, a peanutty slightly sweet delight. Although I didn’t tasted much in the chocolate flavor. The Cool but Rude wine me over - slightly sweet, tasting almost more tea like overtones than coffee flavoring. The ginger and curry flavor is fantastic. Would definitely come back for this.

Love the retro look and especially the NES and the awesome coffee !

Cool spot, lots of seating, cortado was great.

So finally visited this amazing coffee place and got to know what the fuss is all about.I must say pretty diferent interiors 80s theme, thats in their bio too. Thing I loved is plenty of seating spcly the couch at the back with old school gaming, thats the thing which I grabbed my attention.Now coming to the coffee, and I can they are darn good at what they are doing.Highly recommend.

FANTASTIC coffee shop! Such a unique vibe, welcoming space, and amazing coffee to boot. Friendly baristas and delicious lattes = a win in my book.

Good coffee. My parents got hot chocolate and it was amazing!! Unique atmosphere that makes it feel welcoming!

I’ve tried to call this place 5 times and no answer…

I met a friend, a long-last-seen one. We had some coffee and a tasty carrot cake slice. Inside the atmosphere was cosy, calm and welcoming.

I wish I could see this place pre-pandemic. Lots of cool stuff to look at in the shop. Atmosphere is relaxing.

If you love stuff like Nintendo, Gremlins and Stranger things you gota go to this place, enjoy a great pour over coffee and just look around. An awesome place. Unfortunately Mario 3 wasnt really working but thats OK.

Great coffee and great place for hangout....

This place wins major bonus points for its 1980s-inspired decor. Movie posters, Nintendo gaming system and a DeLorean! Definitely stop by!The coffee was pretty good - try the Honeybear Soy Latte.But my favorite part was sitting on the comfy basement-style couch and playing Super Mario with my boyfriend and a stranger on a grandparents-style console TV.Its a trip to the past.

They are great energetic artists. Coffee masters. Eventhough wormhole is little crowded, the legitimate coffee experience is worth it. Comparably wormhole coffee is better than starbucks, in price-wise and experience-wise. They have sci-fi background with vintage video games, so you can enjoy your coffee with time worth entertainments.

Friends from Coral Sword in Houston told me to check this place out, they were right! Old school vdeo games, excellent coffee, yes on both counts. The koopa troopa is excellent. Get it iced on a warm day. Gotta visit if youre nearby.

The ghostly trio was amazing! One of the best coffee drinks I have had in a while.

I wanted to try Sansrival for them. I was pleasantly surprised at how buttery it was with a nice crunch and a good nut coating, too. Its affordable and tasty.

Delicious coffee! Welcoming spot. Cant wait to go again.

Fantastic spot for fans of 80s movies.

Stumbled upon this awesome little coffee shop in Wicker Park. Awesome vibe, very friendly staff AND... and and and... there’s a DeLorean, NES system and awesome seating options.Yup yup

It is located in Wicker park. I like this place becuz of nice staff and delicious coffee☕️

A wide range of snacks and drinks, a vegetarian option, a very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. They made a delicious cappuccino that was personalized.

This place was amazing and has so delicious food! Very old school and quick service. The food got cooked in order and they got all orders correct!

Variety of great looking sandwichs.

Definitely my favorite coffee shop in all of Chicago. Great coffee, kind staff, cool atmosphere. Can’t get much better. I’m obsessed.

The coffee is fantastic, the staff are friendly and each location has a unique vibe. Great atmosphere, amazing Capuccino! Will come back tomorrow. The coffee and the atmosphere are wonderful and we highly recommend it.

True warmhole. Delorian, 80 and 90s posters, original Nintendo to play on an old school tv. People were doing homework in there. Lots of couchs and tables

I could not wait to write a review for these people. Everyone was so sync with one another.Andreas was very passionate about the shop. Tory was so knowledgeable about her craft. I wish you all the best, I truly do.You guys have to check this place out. They have such an awesome theme, and even though it is dedicated too displaying different memorabilia, it still looks like a calm and Casual coffee shop.The decorations support the coffee shop feel and are not one bit overbearing.

When I went to Wormhole Coffee it was as if I was transported to another time period by the decor that is inside of the cafe.I consider myself a coffee critic, I know a bad coffee from a good coffee quite easily, and I get picky if the title of the drink says it is cinnamon or nutmeg I then expect to taste that in my coffee.After taking in the neat decor of the cafe, I went to order and I got the Honey Bear Latte to go and it still had cute heart on it, and it was sweet - but not overpowering. I know that I will be going back Wormhole Coffee, to try more of their menu items.Its a bit hidden on the block, but once you find it - you wont regret it.

Cool 80s & 90s themed places to get some coffee and play some vintage video games. But the only drawback is its not dog friendly 😕Why have dog treats if no dogs are allowed, oh well.

This place almost felt like a time warp with old video games, a delorean car, and movie posters all around. It was a pretty spacious place with some tables for studying or being on your computer. Prices were a little high, but I tried the Camp Firewood and loved it. Kind of a Smokey tea espresso coffee with maple in it..not too sweet but a new thing I hadn’t tried before. Definitely recommend!

Great coffee and good service. No indoor dining yet and masks required.

It was a very rainy evening, needed to find shelter so went inside. Very eye catching decoration which I loved. Ordered what seemed to be their most popular, don’t remember the name anymore. Not much of a coffee drinker but one things I know that coffee should be warm, unless it’s cold coffee. This coffee despite looking amd smelling great lacked the most important factor IT WASNT WARM. Service was borderline ok. Won’t probably never go back.

This place serves awesome coffee & creative teas but in the most sanitary way. They have the hippest Batista team who cares greatly for their clients food & beverage safety. Our company, Sanitized On Safety, enjoys being a part of their Food Safety Culture!

From the door, you can smell the smells of their good coffee and delicious cakes. This is the best coffee shop for me. All of their coffee flavors are so tasty. I would recommend this place.

It was a real pleasure to visit this coffee shop. I am profoundly impressed by how well they treated me as their client without any complications at all.

Another key stop to seeing what Chicago coffee has to offer. Serving up an array of Halfwit Coffee Roasters best in a retro 80s themed setting, this place is definitely a must see for any coffee lover.

The coffee, the atmosphere, the vibe, the service, and the coffee!!! This is one of my favorite spots in all of Chicago and I have been to all of the great coffee spots here. I may be more partial due to the 80s themed decor, but the coffee is what keeps bringing me back when I am in town.

Super cool place with an awesome poster collection and just a really cool vibe in general. Their coffee is excellent and the staff is very friendly!

Some of the best coffee and unique coffee inspired drinks in Chicago. Baristas tend to be expert level and do excellent coffee extraction and pours. Seating is the only issue with many people taking up table space to use their laptop and the WiFi. Classics are great, but I highly recommend the KOOPA-TROOPA which is a latte with an in-house blend of peanut butter mouse and chocolate. Its not too sweet, perfectly balanced and professionally prepared.

Great vibe served with great coffee. From the free Wifi to the tables with outlets and the 80s themed ambience - you have it all.

The waiter that served my order at that time was very accommodating and pleasant. It was clean, stylish, and cool. I will come back!
