Chicago Hidden Gem Brunch Spot — A Delicious Find! 🍳
After trying popular brunch spots like Wildberry and Yolk, we decided to test a new one — Egg Harbor Cafe, a breakfast chain. Even at 12 PM on a weekend, we had to join a virtual waitlist 30 minutes ahead — plan accordingly! What We Ate 🤤 🍳 Traditional Breakfast Simple sunny‑side‑up eggs, bacon, and potato cubes. Bacon was quite salty, potatoes mild — together they balanced nicely. 🥘 Matt’s Meaty Skillets Highly recommended — cheesy potatoes with savory meat and a touch of salt. The side jam (sweet‑savory combo) was a win. 🥞 Chocolate Pancakes You can order pancakes as a side for a smaller portion. Fluffy, decent — not mind‑blowing but satisfying. Key Details 📍 🍴 Restaurant: Egg Harbor Cafe 📍 Address: 220 E Illinois St, Chicago, IL 60611 💰 Price: $15‑20 per person. Seems very popular with Americans — menu is extensive with lots of choices. Only downside: service was slow (ordering and paying took a while 😇). Alright — what other great brunch/breakfast spots do you recommend in Chicago?
