A retro 80s-themed cafe in Wicker Park with a DeLorean parked inside and solid espresso drinks in a fun atmosphere.
“Wormhole nails the balance between novelty and quality. Yes, there's a DeLorean inside. Yes, the walls are covered in 80s nostalgia. But the coffee is legitimately good — Intelligensia beans, well-pulled shots. It's fun without being gimmicky.”
Love the vibe here. Great for casual hangouts. The iced coffee is super smooth.
My go-to work spot when I need a change of scenery. The DeLorean never gets old honestly.

Atmosphere is 10/10 I included lots of pics to show. The menu is also super cool there were plenty of creative drink options. Matt created the drink that we tried and did an excellent job! Service was great. Will be back!
What a great place! Delightful staff and delicious coffee and snacks Love the vibe! Star Wars and similar memorabilia makes for a wonderful spot to just stare quitely or discuss it all
It was BUSY! But the line moved quickly and the quality was great. The most chocolaty and moist donut ever! And creative coffees! Super friendly service. I can’t see why the line was so long. 🥰🤩 And the nostalgic score was great.
This is my favorite coffee shop in the city, hands down. Great vibes, great people, great drinks. The ghostly trio is the best latte I’ve ever had, and I’ve been trying to recreate it for months at home— but it just never tastes as good as their version! The matcha is ok, but what you’re really here for are the lattes— unique, inventive, flavorful, not too sweet, crafted with care. The playlist is always a vibe, the decor is nostalgic and fun, and the baristas are excellent at what they do. Bonus points for the trans flag in the window :) So, why not five stars, you ask? Because it is impossible to find a table. I’ve come to this shop at 9am on a Tuesday, 6pm on a Saturday, noon on a Friday, whenever I can/feel like it. It is always packed. But the people at the tables aren’t sipping drinks, they’re remote working. For hours. Every day. Now I can freely admit I’ve been a part of the problem as I have remote worked here once before, but I stayed for all of 3 hours. I get that if people want to sit there all day they can, but since that’s the case— you guys NEED more seating or a bigger location. I don’t mind getting my latte to go sometimes, but just once, It would be nice to sit down.
The Wormhole blew me away. This was my second time coming, and honestly, it’s still the same as my last visit more than 10 years ago. Pure 80’s nostalgia, the place is covered in movie posters everywhere and even a real DeLorean from Back to the Future 2 in the back. You could spend hours just exploring the decor from every corner and still find something new. The staff was awesome too, really friendly and down to chat while you’re there. I started my morning with a hot chocolate and a chocolate croissant. The croissant was flaky, crispy, but still soft inside, and dipping it into the hot chocolate… wow, just hits different. The hot chocolate itself was smooth, creamy, and rich, the perfect combo with the croissant. Honestly, this place is more than a coffee shop. It's a place where you can just sit back and relax.
