Jun 15, 2026"I live in Pilsen but will take the 21 Cermak bus specifically to go to Buenos Days and Tamales Uruapan afterwards At Bueno Days, they have a rotating menu of experimental drinks as well as core everyday menu items. I tend to get an iced latte and an experimental drink each time I go in - I can’t just choose one! My favorite so far has been the Confleis. It was the best drink I’ve ever had in my life and I need it to be around permanently The hibiscus cold brew is also unexpected and delicious, I wish I tried it with some milk to make it a bit creamier (can run a bit acidic), but it was still fantastic. Please run don’t walk to Bueno Days and support this amazing business en La Villita"

May 26, 2026"Another coffee shop I’ve been meaning to go to for months. There was mixed reviews about the confleis drink, I wanted to see what it was like but they ran out for the day :( definitely want to come back for it! Instead, the barista recommended another latte that was the perfect substitute. Definitely one of the better coffee shops I’ve been to this year. (-) For the price point of about $7 I only got about 3-4 sips in because of how much ice there was. I don’t remember the name of the coffee that was suggested but they have so many great options, I’m more than happy to give it another try. The atmosphere was perfect for remote work, genuinely amazing designed merch + decor was fun."

Like the milk that’s left over when eating cereal. The elotito was interesting and tasted a lot like corn to no surprise but it was smooth and flavorful, I really enjoyed it. The variety in drinks, the vibes of the lounge area, and their radical and empowering beliefs of unity and community will have me coming back for sure."
