I really wanted to like this place over the past year, but the prices keep on going up and up compared with when it first opened. Hopefully they can come back down to a more reasonable level or have a reason to come back often. The atmosphere also feels less welcoming because there are signs everywhere telling customers what they can and cannot do. It comes across as passive aggressive, especially with rules that make it seem like people are only allowed to stay if they keep ordering. It also feels like customers are discouraged from bringing their own water or outside food, which makes the space feel more restrictive than relaxed. Today the server said the beer on tap was $9 and I was given a bottle of beer instead. That feels misleading and overpriced. Overall, the space has potential, but the high prices, restrictive signs, and unclear pricing make it hard to enjoy the experience. Price per person: $20–30 Food: 2 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 5

Thank you for visiting Nimble. Our pricing is displayed on our menu before ordering, with a range of drinks available at different price points. We make pricing very visible so guests can choose what works for their budget and preferences before placing an order. The table signs are small, polite reminders of our house rules. They are not intended to be passive aggressive. They are there because shared spaces need simple guidelines in order to stay clean, comfortable and respectful for everyone. For food safety, cleanliness and courtesy to other guests, we also do not allow outside food or drink. Nimble is a café that serves food, so we do not think this is an unusual or unreasonable to expect. To clarify, Nimble does not sell beer on tap and does not advertise beer on tap. Our beer offering is bottled. We appreciate you recognising the potential in the space. We also understand that not every café, atmosphere or price point will be the right fit for every guest. We wish you the best in finding a place that better fits your needs. - David, Owner

Nimble is exactly the kind of place every neighborhood wishes it had. I originally stopped in for a coffee and ended up staying for over an hour. The space somehow manages to feel both beautifully designed and genuinely welcoming. The staff were warm, knowledgeable, and seemed to genuinely care that people were having a good experience. The coffee was excellent (one of the best cold brews I’ve had in Chicago), and I loved the blueberry danish. The concept is incredibly clever: part cafe, part market, part gathering place. I definitely need to come back on an evening for a cocktail. What really stands out is that Nimble feels intentional. Every detail from the products on the shelves to the music, lighting, and service. It feels thoughtfully curated. It’s rare to find a business that feels so independent and personal in a city full of chains and cookie-cutter concepts. River North needed something like this. I’ll be back often!

Hi Landon, Wow—thank you for such a thoughtful review. When we first imagined Nimble, we hoped to create the kind of place that feels woven into the fabric of the neighbourhood: somewhere you could stop in for a quick coffee and unexpectedly stay awhile. Reading that your experience reflected that vision means a great deal. I'm especially glad you enjoyed the cold brew, blueberry danish, and the overall atmosphere. Our team puts a tremendous amount of care into every detail, so it's incredibly rewarding to know those efforts are being noticed. Thank you for your support, and we look forward to welcoming you back for that cocktail soon. - David, Owner
