We are inundated constantly with negative stories and images creating a cesspool of defeat and apathy that impacts our interactions with one another as well as the world. Its always exciting and uplifting to find people and places, especially close to where you reside, bringing an alternative to what many have excepted as the norm. This is one place: A non-profit Coffee House named Kusanya right in the heart of Englewood, known to the world as once the murder capital of Chicago (that title has now been handed to Austin, a community on the west side of town). Its cool upbeat progressive rustic chill vibe is welcomed in an area that has steadily over the last decade fallen into major decay. Its community owned and operated and offers a safe haven for many in the community who would like a place closer to home to interact with like minded people. We need more places like this in the communities to take over and "Change The Narrative".

If you like it quiet, go in the early a.m....if you like free #yoga with a complimentary mat, go on Saturdays at 11:00a.m....if you like foods named after #ComedyCentral TV shows and awesome #musicians and #entertainers, go any time...if you like #free #books, go all the time. Accept for not being open after hours, this place will not disappoint.

Excellent food, coffee and service! Forget Subway and McDonalds if you work, live or have a meeting in Englewood. GO TO KUSANYA! Its extremely affordable with good vibes all the time. I go there on my breaks most days of the week because you cant beat the comfort, company and music.

Good coffee, good food, good music. Always-friendly staff. Easy parking. Anytime youve found the place where the local cops hang out, you know youve found good chow.

Amazing coffee in a really, really big mug:) Worth the trek if you dont live in the area, and a daily staple if you do. Get your caffeine on for a good cause.

A friend took me to Kusanya a couple of weeks ago and I fell in love with the place. Had no idea it existed. Truly a gem in the area.
