These are the exact kind of scones I've been looking for since the late 90's. I chose a blueberry and a chocolate chip. It truly is a taste of heaven. Great location and super cute inside.

My friends and I kept passing this restaurant near our Airbnb and so glad we did!…read more We had a bit of a wait because the place was popping on a Saturday morning. Luckily it was nice outside. We got a table after 10-15 minutes. Our server was very attentive and kind. They both hot and cold coffee although the menu did not specify they had cold coffee. I ordered the 2 eggs any style breakfast and turkey sausage. It was a great size portion and served with fresh fruit. The biscuit was so fresh and delicious! I was also really impressed with the baked goods selection they had on display. My friends and I got a blondie and a Nanaimo bar. Both were absolutely amazing. I loved how friendly everyone was and how delicious the food was. I definitely recommend you stop by!

I finally tried JB's deli in Andersonville. OMG, what a neighborhood gem! While the sandwiches are…read more$18, it comes with like a half a pound of meat on fresh rye bread.

If you're looking for a good classic deli sandwich on the north side this is definitely the place to stop. The only downside is the price/portions. I feel like the prices are high because the portions are so big (which is fair), but if they offered half portions for half the price I feel like I would be more inclined to go there because I can't really finish any of those sandwiches myself and they're all around $20. The service is great though and the inside is interesting and sort of eclectic. The seating area isn't anything special but it's a place to eat your food

The atmosphere had a cool neighborhood feel, and the menu offered a nice mix of elevated bar food, burgers, tacos, baos, cocktails, and craft beer options.

Great spot in Chicago if you're looking for good food, good drinks, and a laid-back but memorable dining experience. Highly recommend!

Well, unfortunately I couldn't really eat anything. I'm nondairy. I can't eat nightshade vegetables…read moreincluding red bell peppers which are all over the menu here. And I don't eat meats that are made with nitrates. So that knocks out the whole sandwich menu. Oh and I just don't like mushrooms. It's not their problem! Believe me, I know I'm a hot mess. You can't just order a sandwich with chicken and arugula because everything is pre-made and the chicken diced up and is already mixed with red bell peppers, more like a chicken salad sandwich, rather than just a piece of chicken breast waiting for some bread and accoutrements which is what I expected after reading the menu on my phone the day before choosing it for a visit. So it's impossible to get a custom sandwich where you pick and choose what's on it. But they were extremely nice answering all my questions about the food. I could maybe get some focaccia and a side of broccoli if I was desperate and nothing else was open. But I was in no rush and just went home and made something for myself. But my partner really enjoyed it so I'm glad we stopped by to check it out. It's definitely unique and convenient if you don't have so many food allergies like I do. I had already had my coffee fix for the day so I neglected to ask if they have nondairy milk options. There's limited seating inside but lots outside if the weather's nice! Cute little place.

Had the chance to stop by again recently and B&B is every bit as good as I remembered! The staff is…read morealways kind and the vibe is a total pick-me-up. I doubt anyone leaves feeling less jolly than they did going in. On this visit, I started with the After Word to drink. It was light-bodied, not at all too sweet, and possibly went down *too* easily. We split the short rib poutine and I can't think of a better dish to get you through the winter. The meat absolutely melted in the mouth and the cheese was abundant and rich. Would order again in a heartbeat! We also tried the alligator bites as a seasonal special. I'd not had alligator before, but they were super crispy and spicy with an addictive gochujang sauce. It really does taste like chicken. If you've ever wanted to try alligator, this is the place to do it. For the main event, I opted for the red beans and rice hand pie. It came with a light, citrus salad and delicious hand cut fries with 3 dipping sauces, which were very fun to try. I loved the buttery pie crust but the filling tasty very tomato forward- I was missing the heat of a traditional red beans & rice and wished there was more seasoning. Still good. As usual, the portions were generous for the price and we left with leftovers. Absolutely recommend making the trek over here to give B&B a try, and will be back soon!

Then I forget for a few months, find another $20, end up stumbling across this place again and going "why don't I come here more?" This has happened three times. The most important part though- it's real tasty. Always. I'd say all of it, but I'm still working my way through the menu, but the burgers and Mac never let me down. The servers are always really laid back, and nothing feels rushed. I think it's part of the charm; somewhere to go and relax and take your time to enjoy the vibe. And you know what would help the vibe even more? Including the bread pudding on the menu full time. Keeping that bad boy stocked for me at all times. (This time was my first time seeing it on the specials menu and listen, it WAS special. So special that you should upgrade it to mainstay is all.)

I couldn't believe it myself especially when you walk into this place and look around, it just doesn't seem like it's going to be good but I've had folks recommend this spot for Italian subs and it turned out to be one of the best Italian subs I've ever had. I now think of Grazianos Italian sub as mid in comparison ...Who knew? Gotta go back and try other subs now.

It was our first time and we'd like to try something new so we stepped inside the store. The place is nice and clean. And we were welcomed by a very joyful and polite staff, all their employees seems nice. There are only a few people, maybe because we are early in the morning. Since we are really hungry we did not waste any seconds and ordered food from their menu. The staff are nice but the service is really slow, my sister and I waited for almost like 20 mins and there were only a few of us in there, the store was almost half full so I did not quite understand what took so long. But the good thing is the food is nice and made me forget I almost lose my patience for waiting.

Hopleaf Bar is hands down one of our favorite spots for dinner and drink in all of Chicago!…read more One key to a successful dinning experience at Hopleaf is knowing the three different spaces to engage. When you first walk in, you have to show your ID since this is an adults-only bar establishment. (1) You can then choose to sit in the front bar area, if you want a full menu, but use the bar for ordering service. (2) If you keep walking through the front bar area, you reach the host stand at the top of the ramp. This is where you can put your name in to sit in the main dining room, upstairs, or outside. (3) However, you can also walk through to the left of the host stand to another bar area that has full menus, but bar service for ordering. This is our preferred spot because we can often find a seat and order with the bar. Do note that, during busy times, part of this bar area is managed by the host stand and will be labeled as such. The extensive beer menu is our favorite. We have our favorite food items, so all our decision making revolves around which beer we will get. They always have a bit of everything style-wise, from all over the world, but with a local-brewery focus. Seasonal emphasis is also taken into consideration when they curate the beer list. It is always rotating and we love it! Beers are served in the recommended glasses from the breweries. It's a great drinking experience from start to finish! Our food orders are eternally set: I get the Nueske Ham sandwich with fries and aioli. My husband gets the Reuben sandwich with fries and aioli. This meal is so perfect we'll probably never get anything different, despite the menu being delicious across the board. The wildest we get is sometimes splitting the two sandwiches. No reason to mess with a good thing! Other notable great things about Hopleaf: (1) Kind, knowledgeable, and professional staff. (2) Reasonable prices for high quality and great variety products. (3) Clean Belgian Bar decor/vibe with lots of space for folks to enjoy their time. (4) They are open late and serve food late. Thank you for being an amazing local spot, Hopleaf! We'll see you soon!
