Café Tola

“The staff is always super nice, and their horchata latte is amazing.”

It’s a cute little spot in the busy side of Logan that deserves all the love! So many empanada flavors it was hard to choose but I decided to settle my sweet and savory cravings and got a salsa verde chicken empanada and a banana Nutella empanada. The chicken was so juicy and flavorful it was so good. The banana Nutella really helped get that sweet craving. So good! Only thing is I’m sad the lavender lemonade was mostly ice and didn’t really have a lot of flavor, I wish it had both more lemon and more lavender! Overall great food for solid prices. Yum! 😋

Incredibly friendly staff, fantastic service and amazing food. The empanadas were well made and flavourful. The best food experience during my Chicago trip. I’m telling my acquaintances to come here if they visit the city.

The best empandas! I crave their black bean, goat cheese, and plantain and get it at least once everything I am back in Chicago. Guava cheese is also delicious.

This Cafe Tola # 4 is more crowded and disorganized than other locations. I ordered the same as always: Cafe con Leche y la Empanadas De Guava con Queso. The coffee was identical, but the empanada crust had a different consistency; it was not smooth or warm and had less guava. The service was attentive, and the prices were the same. I will return and try the other empanadas; Cafe Tola offers at least ten different empanadas to discover. I spent $9.66 for a medium coffee and one empanada, similar to Starbucks prices but less corporate, with better food and a more pleasant atmosphere. I am gra
