Backlot Coffee

Cute little cafe right off the interstate offering plant milks and a few vegan baked goods. I thought the coffee was a little sour and I didn’t care for the oat milk used (it was not Oatly). I’d try something else next time.

Neighborhood Highlight

Love getting oatmilk mochas from Backlot. Enjoy their vegan scones and the 3 vegan donuts (from do-rite) they provide.

Pros: Quick and Easy.

Cons: If they are busy make sure you watch your cup , to make sure you're getting the "milk" you request

Only one regular vegan pastry

I live within walking distance to this coffee shop and I’m not much of a coffee drinker so I usually go for the pastries. The vegan donuts are pretty good but they get them fresh from elsewhere and run out really quickly in the morning. I’m rarely able to get donuts past noon. But! They ALWAYS have the vegan scone and it’s really really good so I’m never too disappointed.
They have many vegan milk options, namely Oatly brand oat milk which is amazing. But no vegan creamer like Nut Pods or something. Hopefully one day they will.

Pros: Many vegan milk option, Delicious breakfast scone

Cons: No vegan creamer , Vegan donuts are usually only available in the am

Best coffee spot in Evanston!

You haven’t lived until you’ve had an Oatly oak milk latte and a vegan scone from Backlot :)
