Reprise started small—inside a train station in the Chicago suburbs, on the quiet side of town. From the beginning, they had one goal: to create a meaningful impact through specialty coffee. Not just by sourcing great coffee, but by challenging a supply chain that too often leaves producers behind—offering instead a model that can be a catalyst for a better life—a reprisal to the industry.
Now based in the supportive town of Evanston, Illinois, they are thankful to be surrounded by a community that not only encourages but advocates for these endeavors. Their flagship café on Main Street is a gathering spot immersed in art. It showcases an extensive pour-over menu that exceeds a dozen micro and nano-lot offerings, most of which cannot be experienced at any other café within the U.S. They celebrate the artistry of coffee and drink building by showcasing a variety of flavors that can only be produced with patience and the luxury of time.
