Really cute coffee shop with lots of nerdy charm to it. Has lots of video game memorabilia and an old school vibe. Interesting coffee flavors too! Try the honeybear latte .

Jonathan Ferrera

This place is wonderfully decorated like the ceiling has a portal linked to the 80s dropping knickknacks everywhere. The coffee is also excellent. The wifi password is printed on the floppy disks.

Lattes are awesome, made to look awesome, and while you wait, look around, the atmosphere is awesome. I love this place. Don't forget to tip! They deserve it for being so awesome :)

The Wormhole is now my favorite coffee shop in the world! It'll bring you back to your childhood days w/ the 1980s nostalgia decor. Kid friendly w/ an NES. Koopa Troopa & Cool But Rude were delicious!

Michael Morgan

Love this place! The vibe of it is so eclectic and unique compared to most modern styled coffee shops . Their seasonal drinks were also very interesting. I ordered the Cool But Rude and it was amazing

Kaitlin

Check out the DeLorean while enjoying a Koopa Troopa latte ! Simultaneously an amazing coffee shop (legit roasting operation, skilled baristas, cool signature drinks ) and nerd paradise.

One of the best places for coffee at Chicago. My current favorite is iced Homemade vanilla bean . Always super crowded and not enough places to all people . Works until late nights .

Amber

Their non-coffee drinks are big winners here. I highly encourage you to try the cruel summer if it's available - refreshing, unique, and still highly caffeinated ;) Bonus points for the DeLorean .

Tyler Chartier

Great vibes in the one of kind cafe for comic book and 80's movie lovers. Also great coffee . Barista was sassy which is kinda great. Not the best for work but great to meet up with people. Wifi

Heitor Tashiro Sergent

The decoration is truly amazing, and a geek's paradise. From the walls, to the R2D2 mugs, to the not-so-hidden time machine, all the way up to the hanging menu. Just keep in mind it's really crowded .

Maike Plotnik

Coffee tastes good .. Really hipster-like but a good atmosphere though.go strait on up to the right corner and play the REAL Tetris like back in the 90s ;)

Erik Rowley

The greatest coffee shop I've ever come across! All of my childhood fantasies with my favorite caffeinated adult beverage , free wifi , and they built a time machine out of a Delorean !

Eater

While you're there, grab a signature coffee & tea concoction , such as the The Chronic — juniper tea made with grapefruit peel, grapefruit juice , and tonic water reduction. Read more

Adam London

Busy on weekends (making it less than ideal for work.) But delicious drinks and fresh brewed coffee are well worth it. A must visit Chicago coffee shop .

John O'France

The Latte is just delicious, as well as the almond croissant , filled with frangipane-like stuff.I'm French,maybe that adds a point for the croissant ? :D

Aaron Cruz

Hit up this coffeeshop in the WIcker Park neighborhood . Get the peanut butter flavored coffee . Lot's of sci-fi stuff throughout including a DeLorean in front. Yeay to Back to the Future !

Yamilet Cortés

"Superb coffee , roasted by the best artisans in the bean community "... This is so true, Try the Vanilla latte and Chai te!

Casey Vickers

The wonderful coffee is enough of a reason to go, the Nintendo is amazing good fun, even if you're awful (like me). The coffee shop is a hike for the loop and a pain from the red line but worth it.

Robbie Siron

The vibe here is amazing. Guest espressos make for a community atmosphere. Plus, the nerdy decor and the DeLorean are on point.

CollegeFashionista

The Wormhole is great to study in because it has large tables, free wifi , great music and coffee . The '80s theme is more unique than the average coffee shop .

Matt Dicker

Make sure to walk around and look at all the fun artifacts of the 80s and 90s they've filled the place with.

Find a Coffice

Work alongside a DeLorean and in sci-fi heaven, with a Koopa Troopa coffee alongside for the ride. A comfy place to crank out some work in the Wicker Park neighborhood . (via @elatlboy) Read more

Time Out Chicago

This time-travel-themed (it has a DeLorean in the front) coffee shop has a small selection of baked goods from Fritz Pastry , Cheerios and other assorted cereals; and talented baristas.

Aubre Andrus LLC

This. Place. Is. Awesome. Not much for food BUT here's what they do have: original Nintendo , my favorite 80s movie posters, Star Wars merch, a DeLorean , and obviously free wi-fi.

Tracee Kline

Unquestionably, the best coffee shop in the area! I’m so thankful that finally, I was able to find this spot for some good coffee just in time.

Josh Scianna

Chill environment with a nice retro theme. Their drip coffee is on point and they make a good vanilla latte as well .

John Shrimp

Nerdy little coffee shop , plenty of room. A must visit if you're visiting Chicago, especially if you're e a child of the 80's.

Abril Vela

The honey bear latte is my go to drink, I absolutely love it. It's a must try if you're not sure what to get.

ben m

Great coffee , friendly staff , free wifi . Only drawback is it can get really crowded so seats can be tough to come by.

Fallon Leyba

I know the miso caramel black sesame latte is scary but it is SO good dude just try it

Great atmosphere to try some of their hand crafted coffee treats... in one sitting.

Aaron Cruz

SweetCaroline Newman

This place is crowded , but definitely worth getting your drink "for here" and doing some people watching . Lots if nerd memorabilia to check out, too!!

Serious Eats

The steady brews here are by Metropolis, but featured roasters, like LA's Handsome Coffee Roasters , regularly fill the extra grinders .

Jillian B

Great atmosphere to get some work done and/or relax. The baristas are awesome, and they have almond milk .

Olivia Barrett

This place is so lovely! Wi-Fi connection is reliable and relatively fast. The rumors about the Delorean are certainly true! It’s the greatest geektopia.

Lucas Repullo

Delicious Iced Coffee , Aeropress and Espresso in one of the coolest coffee shops in Chicago.

ENGMA

Cool place to step inside to even if you don’t get anything to drink.

Emily Bolton

I'm obsessed with Wormhole. Get the "cool but rude" iced latte (don't get scared about the curry - you'll love it)

lauren barrett

The vibe is awesome, besides, what coffee shop do you know that has a Mr. T board game and a throwback Super Nintendo ?!

Bill Sindewald

Special drinks are amazeballs. Honey latte & peanutbutter chocolate !

Gehlen Exum

Coffee !!!! Pastries are yummy too! Very funky-hip. 80s themed fun.

Nadia Chilmonik

Their soy is good. the cappuccinos are a bit foamy. Espresso is good tho not very bright/citrus. Decorations are a kick. Great place to do work.

Susan

Vanilla bean latte is the way to go! Never had anything else like it

Brittany Nicole

Such a cozy spot . I get a lot of work done here. They also have a good selection of teas

Paige Kaliski

you can play super Mario brothers and other N64 games here which is awesome. solid coffee too

Kellen Terrett

Get whatever is on Areopress. They seem to be one of the only places in town brewing this way, and I love it.

Thrillist

This cafe 's decor lovingly pays homage to pop culture gone by, w/ knicknacks like a Castle Grayskull strewn about, a real DeLorean parked in the front window, & an old TV hooked up to an Atari 5200. Read more

Connie Tzeng

Honeybear latte is delicious and made with local honey ☕️
