The Wormhole Coffee
As a new coffee shop in an oversaturated market, there aren’t a whole lot of ways to bring in business. Sure you can offer great food and gourmet coffee, you can hire a pleasant and professional staff, you can even offer free wireless service, but at the end of the day, the hardest part is just getting people in the front door. Wicker Park’s The Wormhole Coffee seems to have solved this problem by putting a life-size reproduction of the “Back To The Future” Delorean, complete with gull-wing doors and flux capacitor, on display in its front window. Step inside and you can sip some premium joe while looking over vintage movie posters, “Star Wars” paraphernalia and other relics of eighties pop culture. And while you’re there, don’t forget to try the Mocha Puffs (Cocoa Puffs with milk and added espresso), a Wormhole original.
