Close and convenient. Their Mexican food may not be 5-stars, but their horchata is to die for! A large horchata should be about $3, but it's massive and well worth the price!

Quite the trendy place for brunch. They don't take reservations and are very popular, so be sure to plan ahead if you want to stop by. There's a smaller room off to the side for coffee, donuts, etc.

The Lula Cafe is a great spot for coffee and a pastry. People seem to love this place, and it's located in the heart of the square. Try to get a seat on the patio!

A bit further of a walk than Intelligentsia, but the atmosphere is very unique. Lots of mustaches, and at the moment they have an awesome display of paintings of various Adventure Time characters.

A great hole-in-the-wall Thai restaurant for those nights when you don't want to go far from the condo. BYOB!!! It's usually not very busy, but the food is very good. Most people carry-out.

This bar has quality cocktails and often features live music. Definitely a distinct ambiance here, with dim orange lighting and a throwback vibe. There IS a cover charge, but it varies based on live music and possibly day of the week. I hear it ranges from $0 to $10.

The California blue line stop is an elevated stop (the Logan Square stop is the same train, but the stop is a subway, which might be better on snowy days, etc). Lots of food and bars around this station!

This is the stop to get off at if you're looking to explore Wicker Park/Bucktown. There is SO MUCH to do in the area, especially foodwise, such as Big Star, Piece Pizza, Geekbar, and more. Sometimes referred to as the (new) six corners.
