A barista stands in Heritage Chicago, a hybrid bike shop and cafe. Lakeview's brand new bike/coffee shop, can be summed up in one word -- local. Owner Michael Salvatore, a fifth-generation Chicagoan, strongly believes in the power of locally sourced, family owned business.
His innovative shop, at 2959 N. Lincoln Ave., is truly mom-n-pop. Salvatore lives in the space above the cafe with his wife Melissa and his newborn son Bennett. A baby monitor sits behind the counter just in case the little guy needs some attention while dad is busy brewing.
