We had brunch at the newly opened Brunch Cafe in Deerfield. It was packed. The food was delicious, the service was friendly and efficient, and the room was bright and airy. They have an extensive menu so it was hard to make a selection. I enjoyed my salad and my companions raved about their vegetable panini, egg scrambler and apple Gouda sandwich. The sweet potato fries are so delish. read more

Here's what you need to know: food was delicious and well prepared. Ambiance was very energetic and lively, even for a weekday Monday lunch. Service was delightful and pleasant. I tried the chicken fried steak with a biscuit and a side of multigrain pancakes and skillet potatoes. Everything was exceptionally well seasoned and flavored (with the exception of the cinnamon powder forced sprinkled on the pancakes - made what would have been a perfect multigrain pancake less so - on the plate. Even the biscuit was not too fought and tough and was sliced and toasted for the perfect crunch. The gravy was absolutely delicious. There is a fresh prepared quality to everything. The cold brew was just meh, and didn't have the quality of a top notch roast, but still serviceable. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant and will be delighted to come back soon. Well priced too and my meal with a specialty coffee was $28. read more

I have no words! The best breakfast joint in the area. This place does not disappoint. Tuna Melt- Best Tuna I have had so far! The cheese was melted, the tuna was superb, and the bread was crunchy and delicious. The side salad was delightful, too. Poppy Seed Crepes - These are different and wonderful! The fruit, the crepes, the poppyseeds, and the lemon cream stuff on top is absolutely delectable. I will definitely be back! read more

First of all, fairly run of the mill brunch place, nothing exciting or creative. I mean just look at the name of the place, one can't get more basic than that, no pleasant surprises here! I suppose if you're looking for a place to sate your hunger this could satisfy, just don't get too upset if there are eggshells in your order, as happened to my husband. We overlooked that, mistakes happen. Also overlooked was the request for well done hash browns being ignored, one can see from the pic that they are NOT well done. But, the egregious thing was no mistake- it was a conscious decision made by the management. My meal came with toast or pancakes. I asked my server if I could sub plain pancakes for the seasonal pumpkin pancakes, to which she responded, "yes". Our meals were fine, including the eggshells, and the pancakes were good too. The bill reflected a $3.50 up-charge for the pumpkin pancakes, a charge I hadn't been forewarned about nor anticipated. As we payed the bill I quietly expressed my displeasure to the manager, not at the up-charge but at not being told ahead of time to expect this and thereby not being given a choice if I wanted to spend an extra $3.50 on the seasonal vs plain pancakes. The manager's response was, "we assume our customers would know there would be an up-charge." I gently reminded them what "assuming" does. We would never return even if it was our only option nearby. read more

I've been coming to brunch Café NILES, Illinois for about a year. I usually like to go during the week when it's not crazy busy early in the morning and the reason it's crazy busy is cause they got a great menu of great selections of really great food. I was so impressed and overwhelmed by it But I've tried many different things on the menu. I especially like getting the skillet because I watch my diet and eat as healthy as I can. I like to get the skillet with grilled chicken spinach green and red bell peppers. Spinach and basil and tomatoes I also do a little side of that delicious country gravy, which I recommend highly. They serve Organic coffee it's really good. And finally they have a very friendly staff! I have a regular server her name is Donna she's the bomb she is very attentive and such a pro! She always greets me a smile and by my name, she's wonderful. So if you're looking for a great breakfast joint place, you'd like to meet with your friends at then this is the place! oh and by the way they have some pretty big booths. Enjoy! read more

Great spot! A bit unassuming from the outside, but oh my... the place is bustling and everything we ordered was delicious! From the brunch signature south of the border quesadilla, to the amazing salmon toast, to the healthy southern salad, and to the kids pancakes! The service was super quick and very attentive. The prices are not obscene, and are on the higher end of affordable. We will definitely be back to enjoy more of the brunch fare! read more

Wonderful food service & atmosphere. Our whole immediate Family love the Brunch Cafe. And the location is certainly located for everyone

Today was the second time I dined solo here and, unfortunately, my experiences were identical. Déjà vu all over again. Being asked, "JUST one?" is never the best way to begin. There are many ways to ascertain how many are in a party but none feel worse or more judgmental than JUST one. It happened on both visits. The staff was friendly but didn't make me feel much better. Nearly 10 minutes after being seated, I asked if someone could please find my server. Minutes later, my server went to a man seated five minutes after me, took his order, and got another table coffee before wending her way to my table. I mentioned how I had been seated five minutes before the man, whose order she just took. She apologized and replied she hadn't scoped out the room.... The eggs were perfectly cooked and, besides the hole in the bottom one, the pancakes were also tasty. My server never could have seen this but the kitchen knew better. My server was attentive and checked on me several times. I greatly appreciated her and she almost made up for the beginning of my experience. Brunch Cafe is a winner, when one doesn't dine alone. They certainly don't need my business but it would be a kindness if they treated all customers the same. There are plenty of brunch places and I suspect, in the future, I will patronize others more sensitive to single diners. read more

We came in for breakfast on Dec. 24, 2024. The girls at the front desk were rude and distracted. We were given a table. But no one came. We let the girls know. But, still, no one came to the table. When we asked for the manager (as we were leaving) the girls said she was too busy to come out. You get the picture. We know it was Christmas eve but c'mon. If you're open for business, provide it. We won't be back. read more

This was our 1st time at Brunch Cafe in Deerfield. We totally enjoyed our Father's Day breakfast. I ordered the (huge) toast & lox plate. Rustic toast shmeared with cream cheese and top with yummy lox, capers, 3 hunks of perfectly ripe avocado, and purple/red onions. The colors, themselves, exploded, the orange lox, green avocado and purple onion. Wow! Also came with a lovely side salad with a good balsamic vinaigrette. I also enjoyed an iced cappuccino (with almond milk). Our server, Taryn, was welcoming, cheerful, and professional (kudos to her). Also....bathroom was very clean, important to me...and most everyone. The only (slight) issue was that it was VERY loud. I am chalking it up to it being Father's Day, but it could probably use some sound-dampening. I will return...with friends in tow. Excellent!! read more

Went here with my wife and son and it was pretty good! Service was amazing and it is a nice atmosphere. Could've used a little more meat in my omelette, but overall I was happy with it! read more

Overall, we had a great experience. The food is good, the ambiance is nice, and the service we had was very good. I thought it was very clean and the food came out nice and hot. I got the medi-dict (I think it was supposed to be a Mediterranean take on eggs Benedict. The person I was with got the potato encrusted omelette which looked awesome. I didn't love what I chose and will absolutely be going back so I can try the crepes next time. I think I just chose the wrong thing. Overall, great place and I look forward to going back again soon. read more

I expected better. I heard great things and was excited to try this place. The place looks bright and welcoming. We got a scrambler, 3 different types of pancakes and some side dishes. Pancakes - they were okay, but without the toppings they're very blah. The test of a good pancake is to taste great without anything, then that sets the foundation for everything you put on top of it. These fell short. Eggs - the scrambler was simple ham and eggs. There was something off about the eggs. Ham was decent. Potatoes - no. Just no. Tiny potatoes that were cooked, but that's all I can say positive about them. Flavor was lacking and did I mention that the potatoes were tiny? Thick cut bacon - this was also disappointing. Not very thick and missing flavor. Overall - expectations were high, but this place came up short. A disappointment. read more

The food was absolutely amazing! It took a bit like longer than expected to receive our food. But it was splendid either way.

So happy they opened nearby! Wheelchair accessible with parking right up front. Signed up via the waitlist & checked in when we got there. I went with the latte and Mile High omelet w/American cheese and hash browns . The omelet was stuffed full of ingredients. Cooked perfectly. read more

In a crowded field of breakfast restaurants, the Brunch Cafe stands out as a slightly upscale, slightly different option. The restaurant is bright and roomy, with modern decor. The menu is extensive, and really tries to cover all options, with pancakes and waffles and crepes and french toast, skillets and scramblers, omelets, benedicts and two-egg plates, fancy toast and oatmeal, plus some wildcards like a breakfast burrito, biscuits and gravy, or a quesadilla. Some twists are thrown in in each category, like a chilaquiles skillet or a portobello mushroom benedict. Servers are friendly and helpful. The food comes out quickly, and is very tasty. We ordered way too much and still made almost all of it disappear. We will definitely be back. read more

Love this place! Great service, the food is always perfect, and the mimosa and coffee flights are so much fun. Don't miss!

Nice clean restaurant. Service was fair. Stuffed avocado salad was great. Spicy chicken wrap was very skimpy with a large wad of dough inside. Not worth the trip. read more

I love the food here! The only downside is that they can be super busy, so the waiters don't always have time to stop by your table much

We had a lovely Easter Breakfast with the family! The server was nice, the food was yummy

Fantastic. Sadly, only open until 2 pm. They likely have every sort of dish to meet your tastes. Love to see them open for dinner! I'd heard from so many I had to try. After a 5-7 wait (not bad!), we were seated in a huge booth long enough to hold three across/six if necessary. Cool are their high-back booths, which keep you separate from those in the booths on either side (a standing screaming kid, etc.) Excellent food, large portions. Almost every restaurant has jacked prices, some absurdly (Max & Benny's). At Brunch Cafe, I had a Veggie Skillet (morning diced potatoes, two egg whites, spinach - done perfectly) and a couple of pancakes on the side for a REASONABLE: $13. It's a large, open, brightly illuminated place with top-flight servers. VERY Highly recommended! (Lots of parking but it's tight at NOON RUSH.) read more

This is a wonderful place for mom and you and the family. Very busy so I like to go between 1 and 2 pm. The food is exceptional. I recommend if like the Salmon BLT & Sweet Potato fries or tots. The cold pressed juices are also excellent, like Sonny and Cheer, or We've got the Beet. It's hard to go wrong with anything here except the Wait at times. But honestly it's worth it. Bon appetit. read more

Breakfast and lunch have always been great here. Go about once a week and usually sit at the bar and have the same waitress (Melissa). She and all the staff are incredibly friendly.

Wow, service was great, food delicious, ingredients fresh. Passing through was really fortunate to find such a wonderful place. The signature french toast was like a cake with fresh kiwi and strawberries. Bacon was thick crisp and chewy. The portobello bennie was a wonderfully cooked egg on portobello mushroom with a tasty sauce and hash browns were crispy and delicious. I will come back here when I pass through again read more

Solid option in town. They are usually pretty busy so definitely get on the waitlist before you arrive.

They were very busy this last Saturday but we were seated in less then 20 minutes. You can make a reservation but I don't know how people you need to make one. We just walked in. Our waiter was nice but after taking our order some one else delivered our food snd we didn't see him again until it was time to drop a check. Check you check because he didn't charge me for my coffee so I had him add in on He had charge some one else I'm out group for my coffee We had omelette, avocado toast. Hash and I had nacho omelette. My food looked good but was delivered cold. The place is very noisy and we found ourselves speaking loudly to talk to everyone in out group. We were there at 10:30 and it was less noise around 11:30 but picked up again before we left. The manager said they are usually busy. I can't decide whether we will go back because of the noise level read more

This place was wonderful! Ample menu choices, fantastic service (Kelsey was the BEST), and nice clean environment. It's a bit loud and tightly packed but it was also a Sunday brunch rush. I ordered the cream of chicken and rice soup with the spicy turkey panini and it was great! My kids liked their breakfast items (pancakes, waffle, eggs) and my husband enjoyed his biscuits and gravy. This is such an awesome new local spot and I'm thrilled! We will 100% be returning. read more

Excellent breakfast!!! Maybe the best in Deerfield. I don't know how anyone can give this place less than 5 stars

There were a huge crowd after 11am although it is a big place. I recommend getting into the waitlist on Yelp! The place is clean and lots of parking outside in the strip mall. Food was tasty and creative. Lots of salad and sandwich options if you are not into eggs and pancakes. Service was great and washrooms are clean. read more
