The Lost Hours: Edgewater’s Inviting Coffee Escape
Step into The Lost Hours, nestled in Chicago’s Edgewater, and let time stand still. This family-owned coffee nook is more than a café—it’s a tribute to local spirit, born from the desire to revive the corner’s communal energy after the pandemic. Owners Tim and Mackenzie Wardyn have crafted a warm, welcoming space where every detail honors the neighborhood, from the art-adorned walls to the inviting aroma of expertly brewed coffee. The focus here is on true hospitality and celebration of Chicago’s local businesses, ensuring each visit feels like a gathering of friends old and new.
The Lost Hours is powered by the award-winning Happy Monday Coffee Roasters, offering meticulously sourced beans that shine in classic preparations—drip, lattes, mochas, and cappuccinos—made by passionate baristas. Partner bakeries like Sweet Rabbit, Phlour, Beacon Donuts, and Lefty’s Righteous Bagels stock the counter with irresistible treats, including gluten-free and vegan options. Guests rave about the ever-evolving menu and the serene atmosphere that invites you to linger. Whether you’re savoring a single-origin pour over or indulging in a fresh local pastry, The Lost Hours is a true oasis for Chicago’s specialty coffee lovers.
