Casa Cactus
Chicago · Albany Park, United States
Why it’s on the route
Casa Cactus is run by Ozzy Gámez and Juan Quezada, who also own Plant Shop Chicago a few doors away, and opened in Albany Park around the end of 2023. The coffee is an exclusive blend roasted for the café by Chicago's Backlot Coffee, served in drinks such as a dairy-free horchata latte on nitro and café de olla in a clay pot. The plant-filled, sunlit room plays vinyl and doubles as a community space.
