Coffee Fest Chicago Anyone?

Is anyone else going to Coffee Fest Chicago in Feb? Not seeing much talk going on about it. Still trying to figure out if I will make it or not. If so, I'll probably be coming alone since I dont have anyone else available to come with me that weekend so I'd like to meet up with some of the Exchange folks & hang out. Specially since I've never been to Chicago!

The Brothers K Coffeehouse welcomes you if you come to Chicago. However, we chafe at the very mention of Intelly due to the fact that we serve the competitor's coffee(Metropolis). However, I do know that most of the Chicago Intelly folks are all more than decent folks, so if you stop by Chicago, be sure to visit both Intelly and the humble folks at The Brothers K. Believe me, an espresso from me will be well rockin'. Cheers!!

I'll be coming in from Maryland. Anyone know if there's going to be morning coffee served? If so, who's putting it on and how early should I show up?

Nathan, for the sake of traveling headaches, I'd say spending the entire day on Saturday might be easier. Let me know if you need some FREE passes. Contact me before the 30th of Jan or the price goes up. Kevin

No competition for me, I missed registration. My flight doesn't get in until 8:30 on Friday, so making the 9am competition would have been pretty tough anyway. Will I be cheering for you?
