Where to find Dark Matter Coffee - The Mothership
What's in the cup
“The Latin America espresso blend that they used for the Cafe Miel is called Unicorn Blood, and it went really nicely with the honey and oat milk in the drink.”
“I first had the pleasure of witnessing this awesome creation at a J&L Liquor Lab cold brew coffee tasting kit.”

“The baristas were both super nice and helpful in recommending beans for me, and the iced quad cappuccino was ACTUALLY that.”
What customers say
Cortado was excellent. Definitely one of the best that I have had. Barrel aged mocha was excellent. Unique flavor and subtle warmth. It reminded me of the warmth you experience after a whiskey 🥃 👽 The Mothership was such a cool experience. ☕️ Great coffee. Great atmosphere. Great service.
Dark Matter is known for their impressive specialty coffee concoctions. After multiple people told us we needed to visit while in Chicago, we went to their location known as The Mothership on N Western Ave.
The espresso was great. It was smooth and sweet and decently priced ($3.50). They had plenty to offer like mugs, coffee beans, and clothing just to name a few of the many things offered. Would love to make a trip back here and try their other offerings!
So fun. Delicious. My girlfriend loves the original Chicago location, so I wanted to stop by. The baristas were both super nice and helpful in recommending beans for me, and the iced quad cappuccino was ACTUALLY that. And yummy. Surprisingly difficult to get a solid iced espresso drink in this city.
