Coronas Coffee Shop

Today's adventure took us to Coronas Coffee Shop (located at 909 W. Irving Park Road.) When I stepped in I was slapped in the face with the most obnoxious smell! It smelled as if they had been cooking human flesh all day. I knew from that moment I had to make my review quick. I couldn't stay there to long.

Coronas is not the place I thought it would be. I assumed by the name is was a coffee shop but I was strongly mislead. This place is a sandwich shop/brunch spot with a few coffee drinks.

I placed an order for a mocha with an extra shot of espresso and the lady gave me a look like I had just ordered human brains on a plate. I thought, "This is a coffee shop right? Your menu does say you can make a mocha."

While I was waiting for the confused older lady to make my drink, I took a quick look around. I noticed their sitting area which wasn't to bad. It looked pretty comfy. As I continued to wait, I saw another 2 people come in. With a now total of 5 customers inside I started to feel a bit cramped, like just to get out I was just going to have climb over them just to get out.

After about 10 minutes I got my order. I ran out, climing over the other patriens to reach the door, which seemed so far away. I have never in my life been so excited to breathe the fresh Chicago air!

I started on my way home, and I took my first sip of my drink. I was completely shocked to discover that she had given me not a mocha, but coffee with chocolate syrup. I couldn't help but laugh. I just paid $4 for coffee with chocolate syrup.

Overall Rating: 2/5
