Cozy Corner - Strawberry cheesecake filled pancakes - Pancakes Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

The location is good and they have plenty of parking including parking two doors down. The restaurant is spacious and clean. As for my server she was nice and attentive and was training someone at the same time. Kept bringing us coffee and was friendly as well, she didn't say her name and I didn't ask. It's an inexpensive place to visit to gather with friends and relax. The food is ok and the coffee as well. read more

Been here literally every weekend for like 2 months lol. This place does not miss! Amazing service every time. Food is consistently delicious. I recommend the skirt steak skillet, the bananas foster or the coconut cream pancakes. All fire!!! So happy I found this place. read more

Super fast service and delicious food. I so wished this place delivered. It's a typical breakfast diner with some of the best breakfast foods. They have a $3.99 Early bird breakfast specials from 6AM-9AM. For less than a McDonald's breakfast meal you can get a Ham & Cheese Omelette with hash browns AND pancakes. They have a few other options for the special that provide just as hearty a meal. Why would you go anywhere else for breakfast? Soups. AWESOME. Biscuits & Gravy. YUMMAY. Skillets. DIVINE. Omelettes. HUGE. Wraps. (skip - these were only ok). Their lunch/dinner foods can be hit or miss but their breakfasts more than make up for it. Service is always very very quick and very very friendly. They are really good at getting people in and out. read more

Good food but the prices are so high now it's ridiculous. Usually go to the diversey location but all 3 are good quality. Prices are just too high for regular meals. I ordered a veggie omelette and a turkey club and the total was way over $30 and that's ridiculous. read more

Ok, so every time my daughter and I order from here, never disappoints. I love their stuffed French Toast & my daughter loves their short stack-chocolate chip pancakes. The sausage links are DELICIOUS!! But the best part, when I order coffee, I always ask for cream and sugar, whomever makes my coffee - makes me think of my grandmother. It's so comforting! So whoever you are THANK YOU. read more

Great place to have breakfast, staff is very welcoming, friendly and efficient, on top of that the food is very good with a great value, fantastic family atmosphere. read more

Cozy Corner - Meat Lovers Skillet!! - Pancakes Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

The breakfast and lunch deals are cheaper than Golden Nugget. We actually left a Golden Nugget because we were disappointed with the raising prices. After living 3 blocks from a Golden Nugget, it's been done for us. This is the first chain I've went with my sister, 2nd time for me though. I love the $5.99 early bird specials and have yet to try $6.99 lunch specials. I've also been to the other chain near Wright college Nursing School as well. Each location has a different vibe and I prefer this location because of the 2 parking lots and it appears bigger. I don't notice the noise level despite the packed place. It gets packed, yet somehow we usually get a table real quick. Food is delicious and hearty. The staff is quick and friendly. The early bird specials have different kinds of skillets and different kinds of 3 egg omletts to choose from. read more

After a long night drinking Cozy Corner is my new go to. Their food is not only delicious, but their portions are great. I have had almost everything on their menu, and all of it is yummy. My favorite is the chicken club. It comes with huge chunks of chicken breast, and the fries are possibly my favorite in the city. Trust me if you need a hangover cure any of their items will help you get back on your feet. read more

Now I'm not sure if you know this but I'm a huge fan of everything Breakfast...it's my favorite meal of the day and I can have it at any time of day as well. I'm always looking for new places to try out and I happened to hear of Cozy Corner by word of mouth. Walking in, you're immediately welcomed and seated at a table, after that, the server comes over and takes your drink order while you browse their breakfast menu thoroughly. I personally got the Waffle Combo Meal that came with two eggs, bacon,ham or sausage and one of the crispiest waffles you will ever have. I thought the service was amazing and that went well with great food. I definitely wouldn't be opposed to taking another visit to this fine establishment in the near future! Enjoy! -Papa Bear read more

My husband , and I have been going to Cozy Corner for 10 years. We moved to the burbs , and still drive into the city to go, and eat breakfast at this specific Resturant a few times a month. Last weekend we went to eat, and my husbands food was not as he ordered, and the waitress cave back , and said she grabbed the wrong plate when all she did was switch the meats out. When she bought the plate back , and he noticed he lost his appetite for his food, and didn't want it she stormed off then came back insisting he take the food. Finally he got her to go away. Finally the manager came & apologized said she shouldn't have done any of that , and wanted to let us have our food for free. We still paid , and left unhappy. read more

I stumbled across this diner while looking for a place to kill some time on a Sunday morning. I lucked out and found a parking spot right in front (their parking lot fills up fast on a weekend morning!) The line for seating was out the door and down the block. I walked in to give my name and saw open spots at the counter. Sweet! No waiting to sit at the counter - this is a great option if you don't have a group. I'd never been here before, so I asked my server what she recommended. She asked if I wanted savory or sweet and I had to go for sweet. Her choice was the stuffed pancakes or french toast and I picked the Cheesecake Stuffed French Toast with eggs and bacon. Service was fast and friendly and I love that they have flavored creamers for the coffee. When the food arrived, I had to take a picture of it. It was as good as it looked. The sweet cheese stuffing in the french toast was much more like a cannoli filling than cheesecake but it was delicious, with just the right amount of strawberries on top. My eggs were cooked perfectly and the bacon was crispy, the way I like it. The only complaint I have is minor - I had trouble getting my server's attention to get my bill, since she was swamped at the cash register. I recommend getting there either very early (they open at 6) or around lunch time. The mid morning after church crowd is tremendous and if you have a group, you'll wait at least 30 minutes at peak time. read more

Always passed this place and finally stopped in for breakfast. Both me and my boyfriend were happy with our skillets. I got the country skillet with country fried steak m gravy. Amazzing!! Pancakes are light n fluffy. read more

Our experience as a family at this location was a great one!! We got greeted in a friendly manner,seated right away and our waiter Eric was amazing! Very attentive. We didn't have a chance to call him over when we needed anything because he was always around asking if we needed anything and making sure we were happy with the food. I work in customer service myself. So when I am happy with an experience, I make it know. Thanks by the way, for the good food. read more

Food here is great. Waitresses Very friendly. Nice breakfast & fast service. No complaints here. Definitely my go to place for a great hot meal. read more

I have been to this location various times and I have learned that day and time is very important. As any good breakfast place, weekends are always particularly busy so do expect there to be a wait time. On a typical weekday you will be seated right away. The staff is very friendly and attentive. On my last visit I ordered the Vegetable Omelette with cheese. It comes with either a side of fruit or hash browns. You also get to pick if you want toast or pancakes. I went for the pancakes and the hash browns this time around. I always and for my hash browns well done and I always receive them just to my liking. read more

The service is good although the wait times to get seated are usually significant. The food is slightly above average but waaayyyy overpriced. We continue to go but I feel guilty spending as much as I do every time we do. read more

Great food fresh food good chef good place to eat never had a bad meals good staff delivery alway on time and good

This is probably my favorite Chicago diner. They serve up reliable, yummy classic diner food. I'm partial to a cheesy omelette with hash browns and Greek toast. Great comfort food. Occasionally I'll go for a sandwich. The reason I didn't give 5 stars is that at times it's inconsistent, it closes early and "Hey, Cozy Corner! What happened to the crinkle cut fries?" I don't like the new fries - no bueno - no more sandwiches for me :(. Parking is tight if you're there during prime time, but they have a convenient lot with signage next door. read more

Skimped on the meat on my meat lovers skillet. Mostly potatoes and they tasted like they were microwaved. I've had spotty quality from this location and would suggest taking the time to go to the Logan Square location instead. read more

I've been coming to Cozy since the one on California was just one little area of a restaurant. This specific one on Diversey, I've found countless of hair strands IN my FOOD. The second time around was not okay, but ok ig w.e. But I'm going into visit count number 6 of me complaining about HAIR in my FOOD. That's utterly disgusting. DISGUSTING read more

It's finally sunny out and bright but cold so met up with a buddy for breakfast at the Cozy Corner fir the early bird specials. Good deal if you cam get in before 9 but it gets crazy bz here. Ordered the veggie omelette with cheddar .that was big and hearty ,add far as the has browns. It's always but or miss here ,today was a miss.they were overcooked and bland. But usually pretty good here. The place accommodates lots of people and their menu has lots to choose from fur breakfast and or lunch, they close early, approx 4p so get here rant if you can. It's clean, lots of servers so service is great and fast, food to table is quick and hot! read more

This is the Cozy Corner in my neighborhood and it's pretty good. Prepare yourself for a long wait on Saturdays and Sundays, especially mid-morning. They usually move through the lines of waiting people pretty quickly but it can be a 20-30 minute wait in a cramped foyer during peak times. The menu at this location and the Logan Square location seem identical and all the choices are yummy. This is a short-order restaurant so everything is ready pretty quickly. It's hard to go wrong with eggs, hash, pancakes, etc. and Cozy Corner does it well. This seems to be the only breakfast place in Hermosa open on Sundays so seating is at a premium. The prices are fairly low and people keep coming back so they're obviously doing something right. The portions are very large and they have some healthier options plus oatmeals and stuff if you're into that kind of thing. Service is quick, everyone's friendly, and this is always a great place to get a huge, yummy meal. read more

My husband and I love coming here for breakfast, the food is always good, the staff is friendly and attentive. Never disappoints.

Busy, as expected, on a Saturday afternoon but managed to snag a couple of seats at the bar. Within 15 minutes of ordering, the food came out, hot and fresh. For a great neighborhood breakfast/brunch, there's no other place I'd recommend, but expect a wait! The long line is a product of the quality and service read more

Ok for most breakfast places in the area. There really isn't much to compete around but is about the same as breakfast house or other similar places nearby. read more

This is really close to my friend's house, so she took us here for breakfast on our first morning in Chicago. It's nothing fancy, so if you're looking for fancy breakfast/brunch, this isn't it. Personally, I prefer places like this. Good, solid, American breakfast/diner food. Service wasn't great, we had to ask for water refills more than once, and it took awhile for someone to take our order. I had pancakes and bacon. To my surprise they cooked the bacon exactly how I asked for it. Really crispy, almost burnt, (less grease that way!) I liked my pancakes, and everyone else seemed to like their food too. Prices were really reasonable! If I lived in the neighborhood, I'd be back:) read more

So.so.food. Service is a bit slow and not warm. French toast is good. I happened to see our server coming out from stall at their bayhroom while I was drying a small cloth towel at the hand dryer. Not sure she washed hanbds or not, because she did't use the other hand dryer on the side... read more

Oh Cozy Corner...thank you for being one of the only restaurants within a few blocks of our house. We got spoiled in Logan Square, so now that we're in Belmont Gardens, we've got slim pickin's for restaurant options. I love breakfast. I really do. And I love it even more if I'm a little bit hungover. Cozy Corner does a mean omelette that definitely satisfies that hangover craving (our faves are the California and the Mexican.) We usually end up only able to eat half of our breakfast, but that just means more breakfast later in the day! Win! My only complaint is that the hashbrowns could use a little more....something. They're a bit on the bland, slightly under-cooked side. Then again, I like a crispy hashbrown. Big bonus is that they also do carryout, so when you really want breakfast but don't want to wait or sit there, you can call ahead and pick up your meal. read more

Its a place for a decent breakfast. This local chain has better food than Ihop/Dennys, but hours are limited to breakfast/lunch.

Love this place came here early on a Sunday morning and was greeted by such a funny and outgoing host, that happened to called herself Queen Bee and It was such a crazy coincidence because everyone calls me Bee. She was very sweet and made my whole time there just fun, I complained to her about how terrible or a night I had with no sleep and she offered me coffee and water. Really hard to get me to laugh being not even 8 am yet lol. This wasn't my first time eating here but it was my first time taking it to go. I got there Meat lover's skillet which was cooked with Onions, potatoes, bacon, sausage, and ham, green peppers and red peppers it's just soo good and I usually ask for my egg over easy and it was done perfectly and to top it off on the drive home it didn't crack I don't know, how that manage to happen but I was happy lol food is just amazingly good not too greasy or over drenched with butter! A little upset it isn't open 24 hour, since a few times after a late night out I've tried to go to sober up, and I'm either too late or too early lol. but I will live lol. Def recommend this place to anyone for a good breakfast spot! and want to skip on that IHOP or Denny's (blah) lol read more

Not sure where the 4 star rating is coming from here, our experience was extremely blah. Poor service, bland food, even the atmosphere left a lot to be desired. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE diners.. Cheap, no-fuss breakfast food is one of my favorite things, but this place sucks and we won't be back. SERVICE: Our order sat in the pass for at least 6-7 minutes before anyone brought it to us, and when it arrived I let the waitress know the order was wrong. She said "oh" and walked away with no further comment. Our corrected order did arrive quickly but the eggs were overcooked and the whole thing was under-seasoned. FOOD: Tastes like it was barely salted, scrambled eggs were overcooked to the point of being browned and rubbery. Also, what they're calling "salsa" here tastes like spaghetti sauce. Maybe OK for people who haven't had or don't like actual Mexican food, but it was pretty gross to us. ATMOSPHERE: It's a diner, I'm really not expecting much, but the servers all seemed like they were panicky and one of them stood at the pass and SHOUTED across the entire restaurant everytime another server's food would come up. Listening to someone scream VICTOR!!!! LUPE!!!! VICTORRRRRR!!! was pretty obnoxious, would be way more efficient if she just took the food to the tables instead of standing there screaming. read more

Food here is delicious and fresh. Everyone in here has a great attitude. My father is a regular and they already have his coffee to go ready for him before he walks in. I went with my dad once and ordered my coffee and honey. A week later we went in for breakfast and enjoyed their 4.99 special. The lady who works the front brought me over some honey even before our waitress got there. We both had eggs over easy with pancakes and hash browns. They actually had turkey bacon and didn't up charge me for it with the special. I thought that was great. Eggs were cooked perfect and pancakes were delicious. My Dad loves this place and so do I!!!! You feel right at home at Cozy Corner! read more

This..place..never..fails!!! Every time I come here the food is consistently amazing! It's affordable and it can get a little crowded but I've never experienced anything longer than a 15 minute wait. Parking can be a bit tight but again, I've never had to much of a problem. The only bad thing I can say about this place is that its not open 24 hours but then again I guess I'm just being greedy. ;-) read more

I've been here a few times for weekend breakfast. The skinny: lots of regulars, fills up fast, smaller interior (say versus the 'Nug across the way,) good, good food, good coffee, CLEAN, middle-to-middle-higher on prices (but you're getting your money's worth.) My advice would be get there early. The crowds are the only thing that might deter me from going; overall a solid 4 stars. read more
