Fast-casual Greek in the heart of Midtown on 16th — gyros, souvlaki and loaded fries with plenty of vegetarian and vegan builds. Cheap, quick and open late enough to catch the after-bar crowd.

Oak Park's community living room in the old Woodruff Hotel at 35th & Broadway: house-roasted coffee, breakfast, sandwiches and pastries, plus beer, wine and live music. More gathering spot than quick coffee stop.
