An Oak Park roaster sourcing green beans directly from farmers in Cameroon, where the owner is from. Air-roasted, single-origin, with a clear point of view.

Curator's Note

“Kribi has one of the clearest origin stories in the Chicago area — owner Jacques Shalo sources green beans directly from Cameroon, and the air-roasting setup gives the cups a distinct profile. Worth a trip even if you're not in Oak Park.”

The Cameroon single-origin is something you won't find at most shops. Distinct in the best way.

The coffee was absolutely delicious, and I loved that it was served hot! ☕️ I really dislike when I go to coffee shops and my coffee is already cold, so this definitely earned extra points with me. 😍 The pastries were delicious, and the service was amazing! Everything about the experience was wonderful. Definitely one of the best coffee shops in Oak Park! ☕️🥐❤️ I’ll definitely be coming back!

A charming coffee shop in a lovely neighborhood. Their coffee and baked goods are awesome, and the staff is super friendly.

I love the soft blues music that is low in volume, the air conditioning is perfect (not frigid like some other places), the seating area is well spaced--soooo comfy and the coffee is great 😊

We usually stop after yoga the coffee is always fresh and the menu is full of excellent things to choose from. The reason I’m writing this review is because Eric, and Adama have excellent customer service skills. Thank you for your professionalism, I can get coffee anywhere but you fast and prompt service keep us coming back. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

First time here because it was recommended by a friend. Went in this morning around 8am. A nice young man took our oder he was great and repeated our order back to us. This is why I'm sad to leave two stars because of him. We sat to wait for our drinks, shortly after they were ready and I realized my drink didn't have the cold foam like it showed on the menu. I informed lady that made them about my drink missing the cold foam. She seemed upset by her attitude and said "you have to pay for that" I replied saying it came with it and I showed her the menu. Her reponse then was "well there's three drinks there I don't know which which one you were talking about" when I clearly had told her which one. She then grabbed my drink with attitude, took the lid off and dumped some of the coffee to make room for the cold foam. Again, this left a bad taste in my mouth. How can someone like her work with people and be so negative so early on the morning. It killed the vibe for sure all I wanted was coffee and was excited to try a new place. I don't think I'll be returning. Didn't like her vibe and I don't want someone like her making my drink.
