By Citysearch Staff, Chicago
From meatloaf and mashed potatoes to grilled cheese and chicken pot pie, find delicious comfort food at these five Chicago restaurants.
-
Atwood Cafe
1 W Washington St, Chicago, IL
Piping hot and topped with a flaky buttermilk biscuit crust, the chicken pot pie here is brimming with carrots, celery, potatoes and mushrooms. So good. -
Nick's Pit Stop
2011 N Damen Ave, Chicago, IL
The roast chicken at this take-out joint is nothing short of amazing: tremendously tender, popping with flavor and moist without being at all greasy. -
Silver Cloud Bar & Grill
1700 N Damen Ave, Chicago, IL
No other meatloaf we tried compares to the Cloud's: two patties of moist, dense loaf with mashed potatoes and green beans, all given a healthy dousing with dark, subtly sweet Bell's Amber gravy. -
Soupbox
2943 N Broadway St, Chicago, IL
Big bowls of potato-leek, lobster bisque and cheddar-broccoli soup will keep you warm inside when it's brutally cold outside. The best part? Eating the bread bowl the soup is served in. -
Stanley's
1970 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago, IL
Crusty and cheese-caked on the outside, toasted macaroni and cheese oozes inside--great as a side or a full meal.
-
Dixie Kitchen & Bait Shop
5225 S Harper Ave Ste A, Chicago, IL
Get reeled in by very good Southern food at this casual Hyde Park spot.
