Fox & Obel Cafe

Just like the lively cafés of Europe, the Cafe at Fox & Obel is a gathering place for our neighbors in Streeterville and beyond. The staff is friendly, reliable and eager to please. Nowhere in Chicago will you enjoy such exquisite, accessible food and fresh-brewed coffee in a casual setting for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Or, visit the café for an afternoon snack to go with a relaxing glass of wine or a deep, rich cup of espresso.

Try signature dishes like our Cobb Omelet. The Grilled Cheese Sandwich was voted best in Chicago. Be sure to ask about seasonal specials and our handcrafted pastries. Every sandwich is made with artisan bread, baked fresh on site. Order for carryout if you can't stay. Browse the Fox & Obel Market for another gourmet food adventure.

"I love that the café has so many different personalities; from our regulars who come for a quiet first cup of coffee, to the bustle of a quick and tasty business lunch and then on to the comforting buzz of our supper crowd. Our hardworking staff thrives on our guests' happiness."
