Nice general set up just like other general coffee spots. Staff is welcoming. Coffee was too acidic or rather bitter for me. My order was cold as I received my coffee more than 5 minutes after it was served to me. I would have thought if I ordered a pair as such it would be wise to prepare the food shortly before the coffee is ready. It seems like the other items on the menu may be good and I do NOT discourage anyone from giving it a shot! Everyone has different preferences and tastes! Ill stick to Live Fresko a few blocks up by the Oak Park Library.

A wonderful addition to Oak Park Ave with great ambiance. The staff were friendly and the place was full. It just opened so I think this will get worked out, but both my friends and my drink were incorrectly made and very bitter. We both had flavored lattes, but nothing that complicated. I think with a little more time & practice this wont be a problem. The food did looked good, but we didnt try any that day. In the mean time I will be back, but sticking with hot tea.

L!VE Cafe and Creative Space provides a wonderful venue for them to do such service. The atmosphere is beautifully addictive, The food is scrumptious, The drinks are delectable, the service is warm and professional , The entertainment and artistic opportunities are phenomenal, and those two owners are Gods gifts to our society.

This new vibrant community space feels like you are walking straight into someones living room. Refreshing art work, spacious, and a creative atmosphere. An incredible staff, ready to welcome you and make sure youre entire experience is worthwhile. Great place to walk in to grab your cup of joe to go or stay a while and try the delicious GF cookies!

Love the concept and space. But service here tends to be slow. Our iced coffee was served with lots of coffee grounds in the bottom and was bland. The hot latte I had was not steamed properly, and tasted like warmed milk. This place should have River City Roasters train its baristas or something.

This place is real cute, and everyone is very nice, and the coffee is decent, but they are SO. SLOW. I know its my own fault that I am a cranky city man who is always running late, but after trying to fit this place into my routine several times, its clear that its not going to work.

Great food, even better coffee. The space is open and bright. The owners are around most of the time and they are so kind. Love having meetings here as well as getting work done! They also rent out the space so if you need a place to host an event, shoot them an email!

A great addition to Oak Park. A cafe menu with a focus on simplicity; just enough food to showcase their excellent coffee and relaxed but lively space. Friendly staff and enough room to maneuver around other patrons makes this place a winner in my book.

Quizza quiche is delicious. Staff is friendly and helpful. I enjoy the look of the space, the artwork on the walls, and the cafes relationship with the Austin and Oak Park communities.
