This place is the ultimate breakfast stop! It’s insanely busy for a breakfast place but that’s because the quality is amazing! You can get decadent Nutella crepes and perfectionist savory fluffy omelettes! We invited our friends from out of state here and they were blown away that breakfast can be so delicious with so much variety! I indulged in chocolate like it was my cheat day! Goodness! And fresh squeezed grapefruit! And fresh blueberries!! Everyone got their favorite desires! Something to mention is that we drove 1.5 hrs to Libertyville from Naperville just for breakfast!! Haha and we have been to the one In Schaumburg but it was not as good as the libertyville one. So we always go to the original. Wish they had one down south. The server was not nice though. Not sure if she had a bad day or hormones but she was very snappy and kinda rude. Oh yea also note that 15% gratuity is already included in your bill so whether the server is nice or not you still pay same amount. But food is worth it. Oh and they serve intelligencia coffee omg it is soooooo indulging especially the white chocolate honey!

My husband and I went here for the first time! I heard about this place from my clients and decided to go for breakfast to celebrate our 1 year wedding anniversary, and everything was an A++++! I ordered a hot mocha with toffee and their specialty feta omelette. I was super happy that I was able to substitute the pancakes for crepes and the waitress was very accommodating and suggested I added toffee to my mocha, and she was right on the money! My husband got their OJ and it wasn’t from the carton, it was fresh! The color and taste was very fresh and bright! I can’t remember the name of his dish, but it was some kind of spicy Chorizo Benedict (I think). The food came out in 10-15 minutes, which was incredibly fast and SUPER DELICIOUS! The food was also well priced, the atmosphere was warm and inviting and as we headed out we could see their HUGE BEAUTIFUL KITCHEN and amazing juice/coffee bar at the entrance. The place was packed, but with the speedy spectacular service and fast delicious food/drinks you would think otherwise! Definitely coming back soon and recommending this to others!

We visited this place for breakfast for the first time, drawn by the many positive reviews. Here’s what we experienced: there were a lot of people. We arrived before 10 AM and were able to sit without any issues, but when we were leaving (close to 11 AM), I was shocked by the massive line of at least 20 people waiting for a table! The service was average, like at any regular café. We ordered two coffees and two portions of pancakes. The coffee was decent, but the pancakes were WAY too sweet—so excessively sweet that even the child ended up scraping off the toppings and syrup by the end. We do love sweet treats, but this was overkill. I recommend ordering plain pancakes and adding syrup yourself. The texture of the pancakes was okay, but they’re definitely not the best in the area. Overall, the experience was fine, but I find their tipping policy quite aggressive—the suggested tips are 20%, 22%, or 25%. That’s a lot! We left a $9 tip, almost the price of the two coffees we had. I have no desire to return, even though this place is one of the closest to our home.

I visited this restaurant for breakfast with my family and let our server, whose name was listed as Daniela F., know that I have a nut allergy. She acknowledged it and said the kitchen would be informed. However, my food was served on the same large tray as another dish that was topped with a generous amount of crushed pecans. Cross-contamination is still a valid concern crushed nuts can easily fall onto other plates. When I politely brought it up, I didn’t feel fully reassured that proper precautions were taken. I’m sharing this not to complain but to raise awareness. Food allergies require care beyond just not adding the allergen to a dish. I hope Wildberry considers improving protocols around how allergy-safe meals are handled and served. I would personally avoid eating here if you have allergies as I don’t think they take proper measurements based on this experience. I’ve personally never had this issue at any other restaurant before. Most time the staff is understanding and attentive. Really unfortunate.

Nice place to meet up with friends over the holiday season. They have plenty of breakfast & lunch options on their extensive menu. They can also tailor items to your dietary needs. It wasn’t busy on the weekday we went but I would say to put reservations in as it does get pretty busy at this popular place. We were greeted nicely by Riley and seated in a comfy booth. I had a Mexican omelette with turkey sausage vs pork sausage and selected fruit vs hash browns and pumpkin pancakes. The salsa was made inhouse and had a nice kick to it. The pumpkin pancakes were good although I would have preferred them without the sweet whipped stuff they put on top and on the 2nd pancake as it was waay too sweet for me. The omelettes were filled very generously. My friend had an omelette too with the choc. chip pancakes. The food was nicely presented by our server who was super at explaining the menu, serving our food hot, making sure we had hot coffee and checking on us.

Being on the road alot we try to find the best spots in every town we are in so naturally we don't often eat at the same place twice so we can see what each city has to offer... this is the ONLY place my colleges and I will go for breakfast every time we are in town. Service:10/10 never had an empty drink, plates were cleared almost as we finished our last bites, every server we had was very attentive and never made any mistakes with our orders despite a large group, best team we have had the privilege to dine with this year. Food 10/10 pictures above no further explanation needed. Atmosphere 10/10 the friendly service and amazing food are tied together perfectly by the upscale family dining atmosphere with tons of natural light it all kinda feels like home. Thank you everyone on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday crew for making us feel at home, you are all amazing! This is the only spot we will be coming to every time we are in town.
