I came here by accident, let me explain. Part of spending more time with the family meant going to places where other people take me, Osmium Coffee Bar, was a gift and a pleasure. First thing's first - I don't care how good your coffee is, if you have bad service - it's a no-go. Quite the opposite at Osmium. AMAZING SERVICE, AMAZING & UNIQUE COFFEE. Caps intended. This place has great vibe and great service and ever better coffee. Treat yourself and stop by if your in the area. ????????
The specialty drinks here are really good. My favorite coffee shop in the city!

The staff here is beyond friendly, and their coffee is far above par.
I do wish they'd do more of the 'single origin' coffees, but their blends are competitive with any other pour overs I've had in Chicago.

Got the Mayan Mocha and it was good! Excited to go back and try other drinks- the art of course is very cool and definitely worth a visit.

Phenomenal coffee and ambience. Everyone has told me to visit this coffee shop and it did not disappoint. The iced coffee they have on tap is delicious and the specialty barrel aged mocha latte hit the spot. Will be returning soon!

A different fun twist on a coffee shop. Enjoyed a breakfast sandwich and iced drink that were both very decent. Staff was friendly and attentive

Good tasting beans plus lots of tables to work/study and cool vibe. Love the compostable cups/straws

Returned a second time and the drip coffee was not as good as the initial time seemed a little watered down.
I would still return if in the area.
Very, very good coffee.
The art inside was amazing and I found an interesting mug and a bag of Dark Matter beans (which I haven't tried yet).
The service was very helpful as I stumbled around.
I would recommend.

Absolutely delicious coffee. If you’re looking for a Starbucks type place, this is not for you.
However, if you’re looking for a cool local place with a variety of very fresh beans, you’re in for a treat.
Whether you are coming to chill inside, or just grab and go, this branch of Dark Matter does not disappoint.
Just make sure you are not parked outside on Belmont during “rush hour”
(I have never seen a sign posted mentioning this, but I HAVE gotten a $100 ticket for this whilst running in to grab one of my favorite to-go coffees there - Vanilla Suburbs! Light & tasty nitro, loaded with caffeine, perfect for summer!)

The staff here was very kind and attentive! Coffee was great as well. Note: they check for your vaccination card :)

Excellent coffee. I also tried the old fashioned donuts and those were good too. The artwork on the walls is stunning. Get the barrel-aged mocha, it was super chocolatey and delicious. The gingersnap train wreck was also good but did not satisfy in quite the same way.

Great coffee place and really comfy ambient. On top of that you add great service and delicious products and there you have it a place I'd love to visit more. You can grab a free refill drip coffee mug for $3 and add a awesome donut for more $3.

Excellent coffee - Dark Matter- with delicious quick bites make for a great experience.
The staff is extremely friendly and very knowledgeable about the right coffee for you.
The place is cozy and is a great spot to take a break from the hustle and bustle of life.
I must mention the highlight of the beverage menu: the Mayan mocha. Definitely worth trying one or many more.
