What People Are Saying About West Egg Cafe
The Editor

In Short – This popular breakfast stop for businesspeople and tourists from nearby hotels also attracts a shopping crowd at lunch. Topping the breakfast menu are signature skillet dishes with potatoes, meat, veggies, cheese and two eggs. The filling Grabowski features a large grilled Polish sausage, topped with onion and cheese, served with two eggs and potatoes. Other morning options include omelets, pancakes and French toast. For lunch, choose from sandwiches, salads and the special rotisserie chicken.

Tasty but Tardy
by SusannaS at Citysearch
We live within a few blocks of the cafe. The menu includes a wide selection of "breakfast" items, which is rare to find in this area. The pancakes, biscuits/gravy, and eggs benedict are quite tasty. The potatoes are decent but lukewarm. The service is tardy and also lukewarm. The wait can be up to 30 mins. Other places in the area serving breakfast items include: P.J. Clarke's (better service, fewer breakfast items); Fox & Oble Cafe; and Panera Breads (both order at the counter, seat yourself).

Best eggs ever!!!
by patrickpayne at Citysearch
We went for breakfast on Sunday and had a blast. The staff was friendly and outgoing. Our server was awesome. I wish I could remember his name. The food was exceptional and great tasting. I have found my once a week place to go and enjoy a great breakfast. The atmosphere was robust with laughter and conversation. I loved it. I would recommend to anyone looking for that very metro feeling cafe with great food.

Best Breakfast in Chicago.
by JoBrBa at Citysearch
We are not from Chicago, but frequently travel there. We discovered the West Egg Cafe while on a trip and now we stop in every time we are in Chicago for one of the most "Eggseptional" breakfasts ChiTown has to offer. Always ask for Rod. He's always taken care of us and is a great host! No matter what your heart desires, you'll find it on their menu and there are no disappointments here. They have everything for the heart and healthy to the very scrumptious. The kitchen is skilled and expedites every order. You may have to wait on the busier weekends but it is worth it. The management is on top of everything and the service and quality are ALWAYS consistent. They have a great atmosphere where dining can take place at the breakfast counter or you can sit in a window seat and overlook the busy Chicago Streets. Go. You'll love it!
- Pros: Menu variety and consistent quality for food and service.
- Cons: Long waits. Expect 30-45 minutes on weekend mornings. Go early.
