Brunch Restaurants in Chicago, IL

“Wildberry Pancakes and Cafe has got to hands down be the best food I have had in my 32 years of life. We just got home from a girls trip for my daughter's golden birthday in Chicago this past weekend and I'm ready to hit the road to go back. She ordered the kids Oreo s'mores pancakes of the kid menu. I got the 2 eggs meal which came with 2 eggs, hash browns, choice of meat (got sausage links) and either toast or pancakes. I chose toast. We then ordered her 2 dippy eggs, a side of biscuits and gravy, and got a side of bacon to share. The biscuits and gravy are hands down top tier the best recipe I have ever tasted (I ended up ordering 2 more sides to take home so I would have breakfast tomorrow 🤤). Even after stuffing ourselves with this delicious food none of our group felt miserable in any way. there was no belly discomfort whatsoever. We just felt full and nourished. I will be coming back as often as I can. The food is so hot, so fresh, so flavorful, and overall it was a wonderful experience. Everybody was so friendly , smiley, and just warm personalities. There is quite a wait on Sundays (not sure about other days) but I would wait 4 hours if they told me I had to. They do have an option where you can get on the waiting list online (we did not know that since this was out first time). Now let's talk about their preserves they make in house 🫠🫠 they make a triple berry compote with blackberries, strawberries, and raspberries. It was literal heaven. They sell jars as you are leaving for $11. Guys you have to try this place. I'm not usually someone who leaves reviews but it's so good I can't not leave one. If you want the best brunch food you have ever had in your life I can promise you you WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. Until next time wildberry keep doing what you guys do!“

“Been there several times since opening during the week and this past Sunday, took our grandson which was home from college , he loved it too, invited a good friend from church will be there Wednesday. Check it out proud to say its in our neighborhood.“

“This diner was small but nice. The staff were all very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. There was no wait when we arrived about 12pm on a Saturday. Food was delicious I wanted to order everything on the menu. The food didn’t take long to come out maybe 20mins. The atmosphere is nice my only reason for 3 stars was it was a little crammed and cluttered and the bathroom was in the back with the freezer and it was a line. But I would definitely return“

“We came in near when they were closing the kitchen and still received the best possible service. the food was incredible, highly recommend.“

“Great food n service loved it😋“

“The place is quite lovely. It would have been nice for the staff or waiter to explain the menu and options. I didn’t even realize they had teas as an option with the teapot at your table, until I someone else. The menu has a lot of options but a bit disorganized.

The Valentine’s menu item with the chocolate crepe filled with strawberries and blueberries Iooked good at first. The strawberries inside were old and discolored. The crepe itself was good but I couldn’t stomach eating it after I saw the strawberries.
Of course they charged me for it but I would have appreciated them offering to remake one of another type or not charge us.

The mocha latte with cherry foam and the pink hot chocolate were delicious and adorable.
I was pleasantly surprised how good the burger and fries were.“

“I just love this place! Just a nice vibe, great friendly staff, and super delicious food! The Almuerzo Francés keeps me addicted; it's so simple but it's perfection! Can't wait for summer to have it on the patio!“
