Top 3 Chicago Brunch Spots – Beautiful, Delicious & Affordable 🥞

1️⃣ Mortar & Pestle – Aesthetic heaven! From the decor to the plating — everything is Instagram-worthy 📸 Food is just as good as it looks — Benedict, French toast, truffle eggs are all solid choices. Cons: Can get busy on weekends; portions are a bit small (might need to order extra). 💰 $30–40 per person 📍 3108 N Broadway St, Chicago, IL 60657 2️⃣ Wildberry Pancakes & Cafe – Chicago’s brunch legend! Beats The Original Pancake House in looks, variety, and flavor. 🍓 Signature Berry Bliss is a must-order. Savory options are also great — skillets, Benedicts, sandwiches, omelettes — huge portions! Note: No online waitlist now — line up in person. 💰 $20–30 per person 📍 130 E Randolph St / 196 E Pearson St, Chicago, IL 3️⃣ Egg Harbor Cafe – Healthy & tasty go-to! Similar to Wildberry but no pancakes. 🥗 Salads are huge and delicious (often can’t finish!). Sandwiches and burgers rarely disappoint + seasonal specials. Only con: Coffee isn’t the best — beans lack aroma. 💰 $20–30 per person 📍 220 E Illinois St, Chicago, IL 60611 Honorable Mention (but didn’t make the top 3): 📍 3 Arts Club Cafe – Gorgeous space and plating, but lower value for money. Tried their most expensive steak — ordered medium-rare but came overcooked and bitter. One-time visit is enough for the photos! #ChicagoEats #BrunchGoals #TopBrunchSpots #ChicagoFoodie #AffordableEats #BreakfastLovers
