I was greeted immediately as soon as I walked in with a friendly face. Since I was just solo, I sat at the diner counter incredible service by hard-working people offering daily specials for both breakfast and lunch, the strawberry cheesecake French toast, slaps!!!! read more

Had some time to kill before a dentist appointment in the area and decided to stop in for a snack. Ordered the Caprese Chicken sandwich and I was blown away. Perfectly proportioned with chicken, tomato, arugula and mozzarella with mayo and balsamic glaze. Served on a grilled artisanal bread. Staff were extremely friendly and attentive. Great atmosphere for a pancake house, definitely planning on going back for breakfast. read more

Pretty decent breakfast place. I personally am pretty easy when it comes to breakfast foods as long as the coffee is good which this place was. The service was excellent and the staff was very friendly. The food was pretty good, nothing that stood way out. I would definitely recommend going this place a shot if you haven't. You may find something you love here. read more

Second visit here. The one says it all "cozy." This comfy little joint puts out good food , fast. I originally tried this place did breakfast in July '24 on my way to downtown from O'Hare. Today, I'm coming back for the same meeting and since the food was so good last time, I figured I'd return. This time, I ordered the breakfast sandwich. You get your choice of over hard eggs or scrambled eggs and then your choice of bread, white wheat, rye, sourdough bagel, English muffin or French roll. Next is your protein choice you get bacon, ham or sausage. I opted for the ham fried egg and Swiss on French bread. Came out hot came out quick added a little bit of hot sauce to it and it was delicious. Service was friendly, prompt, and polite. Restaurant was clean and had a very good ambience to it. Highly recommended for breakfast or lunch. My only complaint is probably prices are a bit on the high side. read more

I was back in Chicago for a family member and my mom noticed this place that she has gone to before and liked it enough to want to take me there for some breakfast. it's a spacious space. Definitely looks smaller on the outside and it seems to be a popular spot in this neighborhood. The place has a diner vibe to it and I like it. They seat you and get you something to drink right away. We both ordered the breakfast house special and a coffee for my mom. I had it with bacon, scrambled eggs and french toast my mom had it with hash brown's substitute. The plate cost $10.99. It was a good meal. Nice little diner vibe spot that has ample seating and offers more than breakfast. The place is clean and the bathrooms are nice and clean as well. Staff was friendly. read more

We stayed in Chicago overnight after a vacation and on our way home this morning, found this wonderful little gem! We split the biscuits and gravy meal. Everything tasted fresh, yummy and perfectly prepared. I wanted to ask for the recipe!! If I lived here, I'd be a frequent customer. Everyone was friendly and seemed to enjoy their job. read more

Lied to people seated be for us when we were there first manager laughed at us when we complained never go back

I can see why this place gets packed at the weekends. Food is decent quality, and portions are sufficient to satisfy most. I got the NY strip lunch special ($15 !!!!). Asked for medium, and it came out a little over but still pretty close My wife had the same. She enjoyed hers too. My kids got the kids meal cheeseburger and Funny Face pancake meal and we had leftovers... (but they had room for a milkshake - go figure ) Overall a decent diner experience, not fancy but good and clean. We will be back! read more

Tuna was watery as he'll instead of creamy. The place was empty with 20-30 employees and I waited about 20 mins to talk to a waiter. The bathrooms were disgusting leading me to remove my pants to not let them touch the floor because there was urine everywhere. read more

I-Hop is good, but Cozy Corner is even better. It is a big diner, interior is nothing too special. The staff make you feel like you are at home with family, very friendly and hospitable. The breakfast was so good. I loved how my Ghirardelli hot chocolate included free refills. All of the meals were so beautifully presented. The crepes and french toast were my favorite. They overloaded the dish with fruit which is very tasty! They put the right amount of Nutella in each dish! Best place for my sweet tooth! read more

I would recommend this place for some typical diner food with some semi creative additions thrown in the mix. I came here with my sister on a Sunday morning for breakfast. They don't have reservations but you're able to check-in online to be put on the waitlist to be seated. They will shout your name from the front when you're up or it will say on your phone online to go to the front. We waited probably around 15-20 minutes. I got the Florentine and feta cheese eggs benedict and my sister got the stuffed cheesecake French toast. Both meals were definitely good and we for sure would come again, it just wasn't anything over the top or worth 5/5 stars necessarily. The benedict was $14 which I thought was a bit high for the quality of the food (again, it was not low quality by any means, just wasn't worth $14 I would say). Our server was awesome and the service was really fast-paced since it's poppin' here on a Sunday, and I'm assuming it's like that during the weekend in general. Nonetheless, the service was great and the food was good enough to come back - I'd come again!! read more

It's easy to overlook this place, even though it's right off the highway, but it is a hidden gem. I came in here on the way back from the airport. Typical simple greek-style diner. But very clean, friendly service, and great and wholesome food. I had an omelette and it hit the spot. Place was surprisingly busy on a weekday morning. The prices looked like a result of inflation the last few years, but overall not too bad. I have been to other Cozy Corners and this one definitely stood out as the best. Bonus is that it's right next to a little substation. Looking forward to going again. read more

From the moment I walked into the restaurant, I felt the positive, welcoming energy. The host, unfortunately I dont remember her name (young-looking, short, blonde woman) was quick to attend to us and lead us to our table. She welcomed us with a smile and peppy attitude. We had two servers, one including the manager, Angus. I think the other server's name is Carmella. The food was delicious. I had the breakfast sandwich and added a slice of ham to it, which made it a delicious savoring taste. Love love the way the waitstaff worked in together as a team. Will definitely come back anf will recommend to others. read more

I love dining at this restaurant! The staff are all very kind, and the food is delicious and came out in a timely manner. It's such a welcoming environment and a lovely place to catch up with old friends :). read more

COVID UPDATE : The servers wear masks and they socially distance the people coming in to sit down. Food. I came here during lunch time and had the California Melt and it was good. The only thing I'd say that wasn't pleasant was that the bread was a bit greasy and it made it hard to eat. My boyfriend had the Turkey Melt and he enjoyed it. The portions are pretty big here and the price is not expensive. Maybe next time I'll try the breakfast options since they have a variety to choose from. read more

Very nice, food was great will be going there soon again. Friend and I really enjoyed it.

Great food. Huge portions. Can get completely full off any meals. Went back the next day. Hope to go back a 3rd time.

I so wanted to love this place. I've been wanting to come here forever, well, to any cozy corner. I think we waited four months for this location to open. Service was amazing! Everyone is wonderful but the coffee is God awful. I just want my coffee to pierce my nose with a beautiful aroma. Yeah. Fell short. read more

I moved away from the Cozy Corner in Roger's Park so I was glad there was one closer to my new hood. I always enjoyed the food and service at this establishment. It's smart that this location has free valet parking because it does get crowded. Place is clean and service is great. The chiliquiles tasted great but I was not loving my Mexican rice, which was disappointing. I took a bite of my husband's french toast and it seemed bland; maybe I needed more syrup. Overall it's a nice place to take family. read more

Sorry to be so critical, but I've Grubhub three Cozy locations. This one fell woefully short of the others. I ordered 4 breakfasts (see order image). Three of the four were disappointing - The two California omelettes and one Denver omelette. First they were like quiches not omelettes. The Denver omelette barely had any ham and green peppers. One California was with egg whites but it seems the cook forgot the majority of ingredients. It had a ton of Avocado and barely anything else (Bacon or Tomatoes.) Apparently it was all in the third omelette. This last California omelette had so much tomato, bacon, and avocado it just wasn't appetizing. A recommendation is that the cooks see how the omelettes are made at Diversey or Milwuakee locations. read more

Purchased $150 in gift cards at this restaurant, right before Christmas. Drove 45 minutes to meet my children for breakfast with intention to use the already purchased gift cards. When it came to pay the $120 bill I was told "my manager said the gift card system is down so we can't accept your gift cards." I went up to the counter to speak to the manager and was told the gift card system has been down for weeks. I explained that was not my problem and that I had already purchased $150 from the restaurant. He told me he would not accept the cards but could take my name and number and have the owner call me...never received a call. read more
