Bourgeois Coffee

One of my favorite coffee places in Chicago is The Bourgeois Pig (or, affectionately, just "The Pig") in Lincoln Park. It's comfortable and relaxing, with really good coffee, cafe food, and desserts. They have a cute outdoor seating area, and two levels inside. The first floor is more like a traditional cafe, with wooden tables and chairs and eclectic decor, while the upstairs boasts several smaller rooms, one of which with a fireplace, and some rather comfy couches. Classical music (including baroque and opera, two of my favorite styles!) is often played over the speakers, which makes me love it even more. It's good for getting work done or just relaxing with friends. And to fit their name, there is both a pig and an Eiffel Tower above the entrance. : )
