TRUCE Coffee + Cocktails sits at 1935 N Damen Avenue, built around a dual identity baked into its name: a coffee program that runs into an evening cocktail bar, all inside a small, cozy room meant for gathering rather than passing through.
The cocktail menu changes seasonally and has built a following for its inventiveness, paired with a craft coffee program that gets equal billing rather than an afterthought. Seating is limited, which keeps the space feeling intimate.
In 2025, the James Beard Foundation named TRUCE a semifinalist for Best New Bar.
