Forget Starbucks, go to these Chicago Coffee Houses

via GIPHY

These days, most people do their work in a coffee shop. Most people venture to Starbucks to abuse their free Google Wifi with a Venti Caramel Machiatto. I, on the other hand, like to give my money to local coffeehouses close to where I live. For one thing, I don't think Starbucks' products are worth their price points. Plus, I think my money should be invested into my community. Therefore,  below are a list of some shops on the Southside I think are worth exploring!
