TOUS les JOURS Chicago

TOUS les JOURS Chicago

Let’s talk about a place that accidentally earned its spot in the rotation.

TOUS les JOURS wasn’t even on the radar… until one of those classic Chicago moments. Walk up to the Starbucks across the street on Taylor, dog in tow, fully committed to a puppuccino… and it’s closed. Not late. Not busy. Just… not open. (RIP, because yeah—they’re gone now.)

So we pivoted.

That’s how the Taylor Street location,1431 W Taylor St (inside the Neighborhood Hotel), became the move.

First impression? Clean, bright, low-key elite bakery energy. Not trying too hard, just delivering.

The F’nAround Breakdown:

Latte game: Smooth, consistent, actually tastes like coffee (which shouldn’t be rare, but here we are).

Mango cake: Sneaky top-tier. Light, not overly sweet, and dangerously easy to crush without realizing you just ate half a cake.

Menu depth: This isn’t a one-trick pastry spot. Bread, cakes, drinks, variety, it’s all there.

But here’s where they separated themselves…

The Dog Test

They didn’t just say “no” or give a weird look.

They made a custom puppuccino, their version was a cream cheese cold foam.

And my dog?

Absolutely demolished it. No hesitation. No drops left behind. Full approval.

That alone earns respect.

Final Take:

If you’re anywhere near one of these, it’s worth the stop. Whether you’re there for a solid latte, a legit mango cake, or you just want your dog to live their best life for 3 minutes, this place delivers.

Some people chase the best coffee.

I’m just asking:

What are you doing for my dog while I drink it?

TOUS les JOURS gets it.
