Blueberry Hill - West Coast Benedict with sweet potato fries - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Darien, Illinois

See all

Breakfast for 4 about 9:45am on a Thursday morning. The restaurant was about 40% full. We were seated quickly and our server came right away. Service was efficient and courteous. Our breakfasts included the Eggs Benedict Florentine with hash browns, the seafood omelet with hash browns, and two Blue Plate specials, one with poached eggs, ham and potato pancakes and one with poached eggs, bacon and potato pancakes. The coffee was excellent and the food was good. We wish that the hash browns were crispier and the potato pancakes were just OK. I would go back again but go to several other places first. read more

Ok so this was one of THE best breakfast destinations in the area! No lie! Came out from LA to watch the Cubbies ROCK the Pirates and this little breakfast gem was awesome! Server Natasha was not only super helpful but easy on the eyes as well with a great personality. As to the food... The pancakes were the best in the area, the potato pancakes were kickin', the chicken fried steak rocked, a side order of eggs has 4, and they have Texas toast...how can you go wrong? Oh yeah one last thing...these guys know how to do coffee. A multitude of creamer choices...all around winner! read more

My family and I have frequented the location in LaGrange, but my parents live closer to the Darien location, so we thought we'd check it out. This location appears run down and could use some sprucing. Wait staff was nice, still prefer the LaGrange location though. That being said, the food was the same as we're used to. Portions are enormous-I can never finish my omelette, and we ordered s'mores pancakes for the table of 7 adults because one person should never eat that much sugar in one sitting. Everybody enjoyed their meal-its a good breakfast place overall. read more

I love this place! You feel like you're going to Grandma's house, it feels so homey and comfy. Weekend mornings I suggest early arrival it could get packed, but with the latest expansion it's not too bad. Service is great, you get your food in a timely manner. Suggestions: Country Omelette, Avocado Turkey Club, and Chicken Dumpling Soup. Overall- Cleanliness: A Food: A Presentation: A Prices: A Service: A ----------------------- Grade- A read more

Love this place! The service is great, I got there just before the sunday brunch rush and almost as soon as they took my order It was being delivered. The pancakes are well worth it but the hash browns aren't my fav.. read more

Tried this place off its reviews after getting stuck sitting on the interstate. Really glad I got off at this exit. Very Convenient, friendly staff, cute building & decor. Sit down to your own craft of water, assortment of creams for your coffee (which was delicious). Atmosphere and service was impeccable, and the menu unbelievable. Homemade deliciousness in every bite. Highly recommend this little hidden jem to everyone. read more

This restaurant is really a 3.5er, but because of the awesome service and the sheer amount of years we've been coming here, I'll round up. Blueberry Hill is great because it's open till 3PM, has a pretty reliable menu of breakfast and lunch standards, cooks the world's fastest food, and the servers are quick, no-nonsense, and polite. The food isn't the best i've ever had, but it definitely isn't the worst. I love any of their pancakes that come with a cream cheese dipping sauce - that sauce is sent STRAIGHT from heaven and I think I could drink it with a straw if they provided one. I usually ask for extra, I love it so much. When in season, their pumpkin pancakes + cream cheese sauce = OHMYGAWD. The BEST. My mom really likes their lunch options, but admittedly I've only ever gotten breakfast. Today I got the chicken fried steak with biscuit and gravy and it was the single largest plate of food EVER. They give you FOUR eggs, an entire chicken fried steak, an order of hashbrowns, two biscuits, and cover the entire thing with country gravy. I ate about half before throwing in the towel, and I was starving. It's THAT much food. The coffee is meh, but they have those fun flavored creamers that can make any coffee taste like a sugary delight. The servers are quick to refill, which also helps. ALSO, the prices at Blueberry Hill are usually a buck or two less than the other major players in the area, like Moondance Diner or Egg Harbor. And I love that some of the hostesses and waitresses have been working there for YEARS, because it makes me feel like they treat their employees well and are able to retain great staff. It's probably not a "go out of your way" type of spot, but for a solid, reliable, quick breakfast, Blueberry Hill does not disappoint. read more

Blueberry Hill - Chicken fried steak - a veritable platter of YUM. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Darien, Illinois

Have been to multiple locations and the food and service are good but the coffee is really pretty bad. Their trademark coffee brand sends me other places to eat breakfast because who wants breakfast without a good cup of Joe? read more

My husband and I went their for lunch. The food has gone downhill. The older hostess was wearing her mask only covering her mouth. The older busboy also was wearing his mask with only the mouth covered. The cook also had his mask on with his nose exposed. We should have left. The experience left a bad taste. Both of us decided not to ever go back to any of the Blueberry Hill restaurants ever again. It is wrong not to respect the people around you. Nobody ever died from wearing a mask. People do get infected and die from not wearing them or wearing them improperly. As a nurse we wear caps, masks, eye covering, face shields, gowns, and booties for hours at a time. The OR lights are extremely hot and bright. Yes, it is uncomfortable. It is mandatory to protect not only ourselves but also the patients. Please be respectful to those around us in wearing masks at all times when out and also wearing them properly. read more

Always love this place!!! Went to Juicy-O today because of a Groupon special and what a mistake that was! I now truly appreciate Blueberry Hill for their excellent service! They are always on top of their game, your food is always prepared well and quickly, and it's served with a smile! I will recommend this place to everyone and bring them here to enjoy one of the best little breakfast joints in the west suburbs! Keep it up, Blueberry Hill!!!! read more

Our Server - Annie - was very personable and sweet. If you're the owner or manager - give her a raise. The crispy potatoes I ordered were a bit too crispy and the scrambled eggs looked like they had been microwaved. It feels kindof like a Denny's - nothing seemed to fresh food wise. I was pretty hungry so I ate the food - but it's not a place I'd rave about or come back to. read more

Great place for breakfast and lunch. The Big Greek Salad with house dressing is delicious. We go there almost weekly. Hostess and wait staff are always friendly. Definitely recommend. read more

Went here for breakfast the other day. The menu was large with many breakfast selections. I found it hard to decide what to get. I ordered the blue plate special for $7, which consisted of 2 eggs, choice of meat, and choice of half order of assortment of pancakes, french toast, or crepes. I got 2 eggs over med, ham off the bone, and potato pancakes. My friend got the blue plate as well with same eggs, bacon, and french toast banana foster. We also both ordered a side of hash browns o'brien, which are hash browns with green pepper and onions. I also got coffee and a large oj which was fresh squeezed. When the food was delivered both of us got 4 eggs!! My ham off the bone was a little dry and the potato pancakes were horrible. DONT ORDER POTATO PANCAKES FROM HERE. I almost sent them back. They were a grayish color which was odd and they tasted a lil strange. The hash brown o'brien were delish tho, i get them cooked crispy. My friend really enjoyed his food. Service- Waiter was prompt. Food came out as ordered. Asked if everything was ok? There was my chance to let him know about the potato pancakes, but i opted to not say anything. The only thing I would say that could have been a lil better, we asked how big a side of hash o'brien was? Big enough to share? He said if depended on how hungry you are. Well if you get a blue plate special it would take a huge appetite to finish this side. Both of us threw away half our hash browns. Plenty big to share a side of them. For the suburbs this place is better than most. The city has better places, I highly recommend Lula's in Logan Square. If I could I would give this place 3 and a half. they need half stars read more

This is a cute little place. I was out this way last week for a leadership training, and always leave my house ridiculously early so I won't be late. I decided to stop in and get a good breakfast so I wouldn't be starving until lunch time. I liked they had a lot of variety on the menu and a lot of healthy options. I got an egg white scramble with chicken and avocado and whole grain pancakes. Food was good, service was good and overall, I was very happy with my experience. This will likely be my new "go to" place for every month's training. Sure does beat your run-of-the-mill coffee and oatmeal from Starbucks! read more

Blueberry Hill is a wonderful breakfast joint, especially for Sunday brunch. Large portions, well-cooked food. Pancakes have just the right density and are not at all greasy as sometimes happens in a busy restaurant. The skillet breakfasts are a great choice if you want a lot of food for the money. Definitely worth a visit when in the western burbs. read more

The food was pretty typical of diner food menus but the staff was very sweet. I only wish it didn't close so early, as there is very little to enjoy in the burbs read more

This is my go-to place for breakfast with co-workers and each time has been great. I love their food and of course the coffee is served fast and with a smile. The best part is if you look online you will almost always find coupons! Everyone loves a coupon. Everyone here is nice and the place is clean. The portions are large so we almost always have leftovers, too. I gave it a 4 because it's not *amazing,* but a really good place to get breakfast. read more

This place is surprisingly good! I definitely recommend this place. I honestly believe the nay Sayers are rival restaurant owners. This place is not glamorous but that's totally cool bc I love to swing by here and grab breakfast in comfy clothes. This is one of the best things to happen to Homer. I really hope they keep up the good work! The food is solid, the vibe is laid back... Over all just a solid place the grab breakfast food if you're in the area. I have tried several things off the breakfast menu and I remember liking them all. No bad comments at all. Service is good. They are usually busy but the staff hustle. read more

I love the food here!! Its always delish, ALWAYS crowded, but they recently added another room, so now the wait isn't quite as long as it used to be. I like the omelets, blue plate special, skillets, or eggs benedict. They also have an extensive lunch menu.....but whenever I come in its always for breakfast. read more

Blueberry hill is a classic suburban brunch spot. Came with a party of 6 and we were seated immediately at 2 on a Sunday. This place has an old diner feel and the wooden booths and tables add character. The menu here is pretty extensive as I had a hard time picking between a breakfast or a lunch item. I decided to settle on a vegetable skillet after a recommendation from my friend stating the skillets there were the best thing he's had there. The food came out in about 10 minutes and my skillet was cooked very well. The sunny side up eggs here are some of the best I have ever had- they were slightly chewy and full of flavor. My skillet came with cheddar cheese mushroom, broccoli, and tomtaoes and it was a hearty meal that, when combined with ketchup and salt, delivered very satisfying feelings to my tastebuds and stomach. I was slightly saddened that either they do not offer chalula here or that they ran out. Sometimes I feel that breakfast is just not complete without it and hope that they can stock up because that louisiana hot sauce they carried did not cut it. After my meal, my friend let me try his waffle that he replaced for his toast. They were hot and had a soft, spongy texture. Pretty delicious and satisfied my sweet tooth. Overall, Blueberry Hill definitely delivers the goods! read more

When it comes to breakfast/lunch, look no further! Blurberry hill serves quality food in a timely matter, why, you'd be a fool not to stop in! Ive been to many breakfast joints in my time and blueberry hill is definitely one of my favs. Milwaukee doesnt have one unfortunately so I come here wheb I can. Literally I just ordered country fried steak (as im writing this review) and 5 minutes later my meal was on my table. They have amazing skillets and eggs and pancakes oh my! The people are always friendly and so welcoming. So treat yourself and come on over! You wont regret it! read more

Blueberry Hill - Biscuits and gravy with bacon - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Darien, Illinois

See all

Went here for breakfast and although they were busy, we were seated right away. Son had the red velvet pancakes, I had the french toast sampler and hubby had the Colorado omelette. My son liked the red velvet pancakes, but I thought they were overly sweet. The french toast sampler was ok, but the banana bread was a little tough and chewy. None of the french toast items were fantastic. The omelette was very good though, good amounts of veggies and cheese. The potatoes were ok, but I've had better. It was ok, but not fantastic. read more

We came in on Memorial Day morning and we were so happy we did. The food was delicious. I tried the pancakes and skillet. My husband and I shared the biscuits and gravy. Our server, Caroline was excellent. We live in Chicago Ridge but we will definitely make the drive out here for their breakfast again. read more

Blueberry Hill - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Darien, Illinois

Good breakfast spot. It's a fairly common lunch destination for us. Cheap, good food served fast. Service is usually no issue, and I haven't been served anything I don't like. If you like your typical breakfast/lunch style place, you can't go wrong here. read more

Ava helped me with the menu. I ordered pancakes with bacon and scrambled eggs. But from there, the plot thickens *cue mystery music*: substituted red velvet for regular pancakes, then added a side of sausage in gravy because I have to check to see if northerners know anything about gravy..but this is a chain store..further complicating identifying what people know about breakfast if the menu is formulaic like a chain store. Eva suggested the gravy here won't taste flourly without sausage taste....she was right! I do feel a little immoral since I didn't get anything blueberry, given the name of this restaurant. But this means a second visit (and review) is warranted. The sausage and gravy is meaty and almost too salty. Chocolate chips melting in middle of pancake and boojah!, the cream cheese side topping is the bees knees. Egg consistently is good/firm. Next I polished my teeth on German crepes with lemon sauce..slices of cantaloupe and lemon. Not bad but I doubt the Germans really go all out for lemon crepes. Give Eva a nice tip before you leave. read more

I have been here many times and it's great every time! Make sure you come hungry - they give you a lot of food. Their menu is great! All your breakfast staples plus a lot of interesting items. Their various french toasts are awesome. My favorites are the banana bread and the baked blueberry. This place is almost always packed, but I've never waited more than 15 minutes for a table during the Sunday church rush. read more

The first time I ever went here was over ten years ago, and to this day, this is the BEST breakfast place I had ever been to! I went here quite a bit for about 2 to 3 years and even worked there for one summer and a couple holiday vacations. the employees are so nice, especially the owner Steve, and the clientele are a great bunch of people as well - many wonderful regulars walking through the door. The milk shakes and the fresh orange juice are to die for and the food exceptional! Sadly, i don't live in the area anymore, so it's been a very long time since I've been here, but I did go for the first time in ages about a month ago. it is much larger than it used to be which is really nice, because it used to get kind of cramped. I can't really comment about the staff because a lot of them have changed. HOWEVER, the food is still amazing! Lines are always long here on Sundays, but it is so quick of a wait, yet I have never felt rushed to leave either. I have been to the Aurora and LaGrange locations as well, but this Darien location is still by far the best. Every breakfast place I have gone to in the last 10 years have never surpassed the greatness of Blueberry Hill! read more

One of my favorite places for breakfast/brunch! You can't make reservations only for large parties. Weekends are busy, especially on Sunday AM. The wait can be long, but worth it! Seating is cozy. Staff is friendly. Service is efficient. I love that they say "do you want another shot of coffee?". Price is good. The portions are large, so I usually share with my BF. If you don't share, expect leftovers. Our usual is the fiesta skillet without the cheese. Lots of potatoes and mexican chorizo sausage! Comes with 2 buttermilk pancakes or Greek toast. Yum! Perfect way to start the day! read more

Blueberry Hill is very cozy and sweet! As soon as we sat down, we were greeted by the server with some coffee. We ordered immediately and in a matter of 5-7 minutes the food was out! We ordered one of their King of the Hill omelette which comes with pancakes on the side. My sister ordered the Nutella crepes which is topped with banana slices and maple syrup. Everything was delicious ! The Nutella crepes could be better if they added a little more Nutella on them, or maybe that's just my preference since I'm a Nutella addict. Totally recommend this place. Quick and great service and prices are reasonable. read more

Many places do breakfast, but this place does it right. I've ate at this place many times over the past 5 years and I've never been disappointed. Eggs and omelets are always good and don't for a toast option I always go with the white (Greek) toast. The lunches are excellent as well. The entrees are served with soup. Go with the chicken dumpling if they have it. I enjoy the wraps and sandwiches. read more

My most favorite here is veggie skillet. Blueberry Crapes are my second favorite. Servers are friendly and professional. I personally prefer a bit stronger coffee but it is just a normal Americano type of coffee which most of Americans take it for granted. They also serve flavored coffee as well. I loved blueberry coffee but they do not always have, as they change the flavor seasonally. The only problem in this restaurant is that it is always busy and we often have to wait to be seated. It is too popular. Even though I have to wait sometimes, I would still love this place. read more

Never disappointed at Blueberry Hill. My favorite dish us the Triple Berry Pancakes. Their cheese Blintzes are also excellent. The weekends can be very busy. We usually stop in on a Wednesday or Thursday. My husband loves the coffee here and he is very particular about his coffee. read more

Holy smokes! One of the best breakfasts I've had. The menu is enormous and everything is good. Great atmosphere for a morning or afternoon meal. The service is friendly and efficient. Price is reasonable. I got the Fiesta Skillet and loved every bite. The enchilada soup was incredible also. Highly recommend! Only complaint is that I wish it was open longer in the day as it closes at 3pm. read more

One of my favorite breakfast places in the south suburbs of Illinois. This place has a mixture of eggs, omelettes, pancakes, and even waffles. I usually go with 2 eggs over easy and crispy bacon. They also give you 2 pieces of Greek toast and potatoes, the coffee is also good. I could eat breakfast all day and this place delivers. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a great breakfast spot. read more

Great food and very fast and efficient service. Our entire family loved what they got, which is feat in of itself. But t was very reasonably priced and there wasn't anything left on anyone's plate! We love breakfast all day places, and this is one that paid off. Wonderful! read more

If you're looking for the best breakfast in this area, you've found it! The ONLY place that even comes close is Moondance... I've been coming here since opening day and have never had a bad experience! I come here often on the weekends after hockey practice with my son and this place is always packed!!! Good sign in my book... If you were ever discouraged by the wait to get in, come back and give it another try! They opened up into the next retail space and now have twice the seating. You will be seated quickly. Steve (the owner) is always around making sure things go smooth and everyone leaves happy. Try the Mexican Skillet!!! It is the best you will ever have! I'd also recommend any Omelet they offer. They are always "fresh and fluffy" (sounds like a bad porno title). Super friendly staff and kick-ass food!!! What else could you ask for!!! read more

This place seemed to be the, family, meeting, local, everyone knows everyone place. It was busier than I expected for a weekday morning, but the friendly hostess found us a seat in the second room. My wife ordered the veggie scramble and I had the cream cheese stuffed french toast with peach topping. I normally love french toast with syrup but I thought I'd try something different. Both meals were more than we could eat, my wife liking hers more than I liking mine. The cream cheese overpowered the bread, and the peach topping tasted like canned. We didn't have lunch after having breakfast here. read more
