Pancakes near Gurnee, IL

“We were visiting from out of town and were fortunate to find this lovely place to have a Mother's Day breakfast. The food was phenomenal as was the service. They were very busy but you would have never known it by the attentiveness and smiles from the staff. The flower they gave to all of the moms was a beautiful touch. I am a little sad I didn't go back before we left to bring food home with us. We will definitely be back the next time we visit the area and I will have a cooler ready to take some of the delicious food back with us. Thank you for making Mother's day so special!!“

“THE BEST breakfast I have ever had! My family visited for the first time today (tourists) and Loved the atmosphere, our server (didn’t catch his name. But he had the PRETTIEST nails!) and food! 10/10 highly recommend if you are visiting Chicago!“

“I had not been there in years, because I no longer live in the area. I was pleased with the quick service and atmosphere and the new remodel.“

“Service excellent morning menu great very tasty breakfast.“

“Very tasty! I ordered the breakfast bagel sandwich and WOW, so good. I also ordered a few bagels to take away: plain, chocolate chip, cinnamon sugar, and pretzel w salt.

The girl who helped me was very sweet and recommended the house-made vegetable cream cheese. Mmmm. So good! Much better than a grocery store or chain bakery.

Unfortunately, I agree with another reviewer who said that some employees are unfriendly and don’t seem happy to be there. I witnessed an employee waiting on an elderly gentleman who needed more patient assistance. Ironically, the employee helping him was wearing a shirt that said “Be a Nice Human” 😕 In my experience, a genuine smile can go a long way. In customer-facing positions, it’s essential to be kind, patient and caring of those who are patronizing the business and possibly leaving a tip.“
