My Half of The Sky Coffee + Coworking

Churro latte had the mildly sweet cinnamon taste, not flat. Good aftertaste. It was nice to see some handheld foods but here is the kicker, the Latin beef empanada was trash. MHOTS, please throw out whatever leftover empanada you have. It is no longer edible. Rancid. Brittle. Old tasting. I am even embarrassed sharing a photo since I bit into it but of course immediately spit it out.

I ordered the cafe miel and it was good, a nice balance of honey and cinnamon. It’s a typical drink that I order at any coffee shop and this one was on par with what I would expect taste wise. I came to work on my laptop and didn’t realize that the first floor is a “no working” zone and only for socializing. So I had to move upstairs which was EXTREMELY quiet. No light background music or anything. I can hear every single keyboard type, chewing of food, sipping of a drink…you get the idea. It was fine, but not my favorite experience. My preference is not library-like quiet while working. It threw me off a bit but for those that need this level of quiet for working or studying, you will definitely appreciate it. It’s just not for me. I would come back to pick up a drink to go or if I am mee

The coffee spot was great—everything from the atmosphere to the setup made it easy to settle in and get focused. This is definitely an ideal area to study, journal, or reflect quietly with a good drink in hand. I love that there’s an app where you can order ahead and pick up—it makes everything so smooth and low-stress. The place feels really cozy and welcoming

My Half of the Sky – Wheaton, IL What a hidden gem! I stopped by My Half of the Sky in Wheaton and absolutely loved the cozy vibe and mission-driven atmosphere. I ordered a latte and it was perfectly made—smooth, rich, and just the right balance of espresso and almond milk. You can tell they care about quality and community here. It's more than just a coffee shop—it's a place that feels warm, welcoming, and purposeful. Can’t wait to go back and try more from the menu. Highly recommend if you're in the area!

Went in for coffee and a quick snack, the coffee is wonderful and the service is great and I LOVE the mission and social justice work of this coffee shop. It pains me to write this because I wanted this to be amazing , but the food unfortunately was not great and I wanted to love it! The empanadas were dry and crusty crunchy pastry and the filling didn’t fill the space of the pastry. Ordered the ham and cheese and egg and cheese and they were dry. We also ordered the brown sugar scone and it was dry and tasted frozen. Go there for the coffee and the amazing ethos, eat somewhere else. There were great little trinkets and so much information on the walls about the work that this business does for the community.
