The Scene – A laid-back mix of gay and straight couples and families converge at this cafe from the owner of neighborhood tavern Big Chicks next door. The long, narrow room is a tight squeeze, but mirrors, art and whimsical blue light fixtures make it cheerful and cozy. Brunch is crowded and lively; dinner nights (Wednesday-Saturday), it's low-lit, quiet and downright romantic. – – The Food – WIth organic three-egg omelettes, breakfast burritos, bacon, chicken sausage and even Jell-O, Tweet offers an extensive menu of tasty breakfast favorites. Buttermilk pancakes…

BEST CHICAGO BRUNCH SPOT

by thenubianbuty at Citysearch

You MUST GO HERE! FIVE STARS!!! You need to get some sort of poached egg here. This isn't the place where you go for pancakes and eggs unless you get the French toast which is HEAVENLY! You need to get out of your shell and try the different things on the menu.

I go her religiously every Sunday. Sometimes there is a wait. I ALWAYS order the Country eggs Benedict (the Vegetarian one ) but the meat one is probably amazing too. I have also tried to Eggs Florentine (with lox) and the Crab cakes Benedict is amazing! Do as i say and you will be there every Sunday too. You can also try one of their breakfast burritos. The wait staff is so fun and nice too. GO GO GO HERE! You will never go anywhere else. Trust me!

  • Pros: Vegan and Vegetarian Friendly!!!
  • Cons: Cash Only, bit of a wait, pricy but WORTH IT!!!

Great Sunday Brunch

by bethylou10 at Citysearch

Definitely worth the wait, which can be quite lengthy if you arrive during peak hours. Free coffee while you wait, though. The menu is huge and has a wide variety of options. I appreciate that they try to use local and organic foods as often as possible.

Great brunch location

by kmg8421 at Citysearch

Tweet remains one of my favorite places for brunch. The menu is very expansive, and in addition to any great meal you choose, you're also served fruit and delicious bread. The atmosphere is so cute and cozy, and I love the fact that the friendly owner, Michelle, is always making her rounds. Tweet is a great place to take out-of-town family and friends, too. It's so good, in fact, that there's often a wait. But worst case scenario, you can wait next door in Big Chicks where the mimosas and bloody Marys are delicious. Definitely worth checking out.

  • Pros: service, drinks, atmosphere
  • Cons: cash only, wait time
