50 Best Breakfast Restaurants near Oak Park

“I did not feel like cooking breakfast this morning so I decided to order a breakfast burrito from here and it was delicious! The burrito was full of all the healthy good stuff. Scrambled eggs, red peppers, mixed greens, avocado and black beans all wrapped in a flour tortilla. The burrito came with a side of home fries (potatoes). You can get the salsas, the green one and orange one with a little kick and they both complement the burrito and add such flavor. I truly enjoyed it. It was the perfect size and quite filling, especially adding the side of potatoes. I've passed this bakery so many times and you notice it because it's so colorful and put you in the mind of an ice cream shop because the outside is so colorful. I want to try other items on the menu because their breakfast burrito was really good.“

“this place is so cute and everyone is so warm and welcoming. We have a huge group for brunch on a saturday so we were really thinking we weren’t going to get to try it but they really made space for us and accommodated everyone. Even the customers here that seem to already have a good relationship with the staff talked to us about why they liked it. The food was 10/10 too and very filling“

“My boyfriend and I stumbled upon the Garden Of Eat'n Restaurant last weekend for breakfast, and what a delightful discovery it turned out to be! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality, setting the tone for a fantastic dining experience.We both opted for dishes from their "specials" menu, and let me tell you, we were not disappointed. I ordered the red chilaquiles, being a lover of spice, and they certainly delivered on the heat! But beyond the spicy kick, every bite was bursting with flavor. The portions were generous, leaving us feeling fully satisfied and content.The ambiance of the Garden Of Eat'n is cozy and inviting, making it the perfect spot to enjoy a leisurely meal. It truly felt like dining in a hidden gem, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.Overall, our experience at the Garden Of Eat'n Restaurant was nothing short of exceptional. Delicious food, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere - what more could you ask for? If you're in the mood for a memorable breakfast or brunch experience, I highly recommend paying them a visit. You won't be disappointed!“

“Popped into this place for a brunch during our latest Chicago trip. Yummy! Very enjoyable experience!! Eggs prepared exactly as ordered, potatoes had terrific seasoning, and the whole dish was so warm and welcoming (hash)!! Other key takeaways...cute tabletops, extremely clean, and a friendly staff to boot. So glad we chose this spot. :)Kid-friendliness: My son who is medium picky also enjoyed the hash and ate all three bacon slices as a side!“

“Recently found Mary's thanks to my sister & Brother in-law and I love it! Only been there 2x but both times the food has been great!, I had the same server and she was very attentive and friendly, but not "annoyingly" attentive. Haven't had to wait more than 10.15vminutes for food, but I was also there during slow periods both times. The interior is ...Fun! And colorful!, BTW, the Jalapeno Bacon is awesome!“

“Support your local mob front!Food was kinda mid and def was hoping to try some Serbian food but they didn't have any. This is definitely a Eastern european take on American food and it feels like gulag food - reminds me of my time I had a nightmare about being sent back to to reeducation camp. Lady was super nice tho and I wish her the best!“

“One of my favourite breakfast spot! They have grits!!“

“Went in on a weekend morning. Thisnplace was packed, but they did an awesome job on service and getting folks seated right away.Our server Orlando was a stud and kept the kids topped off on drinks and kept checking in on our needs. Dude was moving non stop and holding it down. Manager was at the counter when we paid the bill and he was on top of everything.Food was excellent on all accounts and came out quickly.A nice extra is the location around the restaurant. If you have some free time and the weather is agreeable, please walk around and explore.“

“1st time visit and I'm going to give them 5 stars before my food comes because the smell of the strong coffee and food that hits you walking in the door...it can't be anything but amazing!*Update- cabbage soup and cauliflower soup were delish!“

“This was a great experience. The atmosphere was great and the service was to. I am a person who's experience is largely influenced by the service and this did not disappoint. Our waitress was very personable and made sure we has a pleasant experience. She's the one from Costa Rica, if you go their.The food was very good. I had the steak and eggs and the steak was cooked perfectly as I ordered.I hope they keep up the quality of service because if they do, I've found my new regular breakfast spot.“

“Always a great experience here. It can get crowded on the weekends but I never have waited a long time to sit or for service. The food is very good! They have a lot of different options including fun shakes! My favorite is the southwest omelet! I loved it as a skillet and tried is as an omelet and fell in love! They have lots of fun pancake options as well. Good meal options with lots to offer making it not that expensive!“

“Took the family out for Sunday breakfast and we were excited to visit this spot. I was looking forward to the Llpingacho Benedict, which I was so curious about. The flavor was very good and unique with the potato cakes and grilled tomatoes. Surprisingly, the most tasty item we had were the pancakes. My son ordered the oreo pancakes and I had a bite of it. I was floored by the rich taste and texture of the pancakes. I'd return just for those. Before ending this post, I cannot forget to mention that they have outstanding service and hospitality. Check this spot out, you won't be disappointed.“

“Great atmosphere and best Greek omelet ever!!“

“I've been a loyal patron of this place for practically my whole life, starting around 1980. The food here never disappoints, always delicious and consistently good with a massive range of offerings from the expected breakfast and diner sandwiches to my favorite 30 different skillets. And, their coffee is far from the usual diluted fare or overpriced options.It's a family-owned gem, run by folks who are straightforward, sensible, warm, and smart. The quality of their food, the service remains consistently high. They are always courteous and a pleasure to interact with, many having cultivated their own dedicated customer base within the community.“

“A GREAT cafe. Food is fresh and delicious. For breakfast, the brunch sandwich (with avocado, eggs, onion and dill) is terrific. The apple pecan French toast with homemade vanilla sauce is spectacular. The Vegetarian omelette and oatmeal with granola and brown sugar are also worth writing home about. They like serving fresh fruit! A real gem.“

“My friends and I, had breakfast here today and the service was awesome. I was seated quickly, and had many items, to choose from on their menu. The waiter was super nice and friendly and checked on us a few times to see if we needed anything. The ambiance was great, the food was fresh and a lot of it. I took my leftovers home. Thank you Dem and staff for a GREAT service. Take care“

“The Good - Service at this restaurant was excellent. This was a nice diner with a delicious breakfast. The Usual - Add ons are an additional fee - onions with hash browns were .95, for example. The Unnecessary- I did notice the "supplemental fee" for credit card usage. Those fees are just silly because that is the cost of doing business that should be factored into a business budget. We know you're paying to accept credit cards - negotiate with your CC companies instead of adding "fees" to your bills and surprising customers.“

“We stumbled upon Flying Saucer while visiting Chicago and are glad we did. The food is excellent and the atmosphere is fun with nice indoor and outdoor seating options. The staff were friendly, helpful and on top of it. This is the type of restaurant I wish I had in my neighborhood. If you’re in the area it’s a must visit.“

“My family and I went today and the service was amazing! There was this friendly old man server who was so kind and always asked if we needed anything. He was super sweet and made sure we got everything we needed. The staff is so friendly and welcoming to everyone. The food portion is so worth the price as well! Definitely they don’t skip out on anything. I highly recommend having brunch here and will be back again with my family!“

“Reasonably priced. Fast & friendly service. I had the lumberjack skillet. I’m not a fan of pork but it was pretty good. My waffles were delicious and the eggs were cooked to perfection. I would definitely return to try more options.“

“Awesome food and atmosphere! Loved the interaction with the owner! Highly recommend!“

“Mr. B and staff family are amazing and know the regulars. Food is GREAT quality and quantity worth the price. Through all the increases in life the prices stayed about the same. Joe's, is much needed in the community. Sometimes you have to wait because it's BUSY but, it worth the wait. You can call in and place your order. Remember to drop something in the tip jug, they work HARD from 7a-2p.Parking: There is free street parking around the restaurant and across the street that doesn't belong to Joe's but people often park there.Kid-friendliness: Kids are more than welcome and there regularly.Wheelchair accessibility: There are tables where you can remove the chairs and eat with a wheelchair. They will definitely accommodate you.“
