Very interesting place and the name is a smart play of words considering it is located at the Divinity School. Such a classic University of Chicago thing to do.

Only the best: the coffee, the root beer, and the friendliness of the staff. Since the cafe is located in the school of divinity, it is no wonder that food tastes divine there. Ideal location for anyone who seeks a quick out-of-body spiritual experience in the 15 min break within lectures.
