We have been watching the property at 5046 N. Clark since it was sold in 2024.
Renovations began on the long-dormant retail space earlier this spring, and we knew from local chatter to expect a new cafe concept of some sort.
It appears renovation work is nearing an end, so we can disclose the new concept appears to be a version of Humboldt Park's amazing sandwich specialist / liquor store Humboldt Haus.

Plenty of beautiful sandwich photos here on Instagram, a menu here (Toast link) and Google reviews here.
Name remains TBD (the working name is "Humboldt Haus 2") but the plan is for sammiches.
We don't have more info at this point, including whether liquor will be featured at this location.
We are excited for another new business in this growing stretch of entertainment and food options in "North Uptown," or "South of Foster Andersonville" if you prefer. "HH2" joins the recently re-opened Marty's, an expanding Chicago Magic Lounge, Meeting House, Sofo Tap and more.
Ed. Note for anyone watching these properties: readers have witnessed construction activity at 5044 N. Clark but that building is not part of this project. Per 5044's owner, the building was used as a staging area for construction on Marty's and will be available for rent soon.
