    Steak and eggs
    Hubaab M.

    Very nice little breakfast diner. I always thought they only had coffee so I never went, but my buddy told me they are pretty much a restaurant so I decided to try it. And they did not disappoint. The retro breakfast diner feel, the food was amazing and the staff was so so nice. I got the steak and eggs and it was hands down amazing! They basically cook the food right in front and there are stools at the counter. It's a very small spot but they deliver big. I'll be back.

    A year after my initial review, they know us when we come in, we eat here regularly, and I haven't found anything on the menu that I regretted ordering yet. Today I ordered the Monte Cristo french toast and I think it's maybe my favorite menu item yet. It's sweet and salty, it's filling, it's fresh and truly a brunch lovers dream. My boyfriend sticks to his tried and true breakfast sandwich, which is perfectly cooked every time. We love coming here. Parking is easy and free. Staff are so personable and welcoming. Food is delicious, portions are big, and it's very affordable. Don't sleep on this gem.

    This coffee shop and diner rocks! You might not be able to get a seat because it can get very busy, but there are 12 seats at the diner and 3 small tables for 2. It is definitely a family type fuel here with a classic vibe. You can find oldies playing on the two TVs, with classic songs playing in the background. It was like a time machine back into 1980. Many regulars come in and are known by name. Multiple people working there will come and talk to you as well. Today I tried a bacon date and goat cheese omelette which came with a side of pancakes and hash browns, all for $14. The Omelette was different, with a combination of savory, sweet, and creamy! I highly recommend the spice rub that is on the side, which is very tasty and not too spicy. It is definitely worth coming back here, just might have to wait or come at a later hour. Customer Parking is available alongside the restaurant and on street, but beware that the parking lot sign does not indicate that Edgebrook Coffee Shop customers are listed on there. I recommend the business to make parking recommendations to ease the burden on the customers, but I had no problem parking her for 30 min.

    First time here. Had to try their house corned beef. A smile greeted me upon entering. I was able to pick some sides to make my meal exactly how I wanted. Not many old school diners anymore. The restaurant is cozy and you can tell there are some regulars. It's clean and the counter is tidy.

    Look who's here at the Edgebrook Coffee Shop none other than Mr Tim H

    07/25/20 - One of my all time favorite breakfast places. They have THE BEST CORN BEEF HASH I ever ate. I walked 5.5 miles this morning ate 1/2 of my breakfast & walked 2.3 miles home. Absolutely delicious as always. 2 other Yelp Elites I know Jacob & Tim H have been here 19x's each. I met Tim here one time for breakfast. He drove all the way from Naperville to join me for chow. What does that tell you about Yelpers & the quality of food served here. Edgebrook Coffee Shop is a very tiny diner w/limited seating on the best day, but Covid further limits their ability to seat and serve too many people at once. They did have a couple of tables outside but they are outside along Central Ave in the hot East sun. Still it's worth it to grab some of THE BEST CORN BEEF HASH I ever ate.

    Smoked bratwurst hash on this week's special.

    My husband and I recently visited for the first time with his parents, and we absolutely loved it…read more My in-laws come here often since they live nearby, so when we were in the area, we decided to finally give it a try. (Sorry, no pictures this time! I was enjoying my food so much that I completely forgot.) The ambiance is welcoming, bright, and modern, and the restaurant is much larger than I expected. Everything was clean, and our waitress was friendly and attentive throughout our visit. I ordered the Lox Plate, and it was outstanding. The salmon had the perfect texture and seasoning, the cucumbers and bagel were fresh, and all of the flavors paired together beautifully. I love seeing lox on a menu, but many restaurants either don't do it well or serve portions that are too small. Here, everything was spot on, and the portion was generous enough that I left completely satisfied. Everyone in our group enjoyed their meal, and my husband and I have already said we'll be back very soon. This restaurant is a fantastic addition to the neighborhood, especially since there aren't many local breakfast spots nearby that aren't part of a chain. Highly recommend!

    The Vanilla Iced Latte w/ Oatmilk was to my liking. It had no sugar and it was balanced flavor…read morewise. The Oatmilk always hits. The Corn Beef hash skillet was a good too. I will say a 4/5 - wish it had my Corned Beef and a bit more crisp. I liked that the onions & peppers were chopped the same size and had a good amount of cheese. Beautiful decor inside. Very bright and inviting. The staff is very nice but they definitely need more help in the dining room...maybe an extra waiter/waitress or 2. It does get very busy especially on the weekends. I will go there again.

    It's been a few years since we've been to Gale Street and wow, such a great refresh…read more Let's start with the sleeper hit of our meal. The potato skins - crispy, full of flavor and so unique. We loved them and the dipping sauce. I went with the classic ribs. Still amazing and great. Fall off the bone and great taste. My wife had the cioppino which she loved. Service was friendly, fast and excellent. We definitely will not wait so long to come back.

    A group of us went to the Gale Street Inn last night to enjoy some BBQ Ribs. We were a group of 5…read moreadults and a 2 month old who tagged along. Three of us currently reside in Florida. However, we 3 are former Chicagoans who have dined here before when it was under different ownership. As we entered the restaurant the entry way looked as it did before ... until ... we entered the main room. It appeared updated , more modern , with low lighting creating the perfect ambiance for a romantic dinner for two or an enjoyable venue for a group setting. There are other rooms in the restaurant that offer space for larger accommodations and a large Bar area is included. We were seated after a short wait as we had a reservation. It was a Friday night and the restaurant was full of patrons. Service was a little slow due to the restaurant being filled to capacity. Menus were presented and we perused the menu knowing we were going to order the Ribs - except - for one kill Joy who ordered fish & chips ? Really ? In a rib joint and the guy orders fish ?! Who invited this guy anyway ? LOL. Our food was brought to our table by wait staff who left their smile at home. Nothing ensures a nice TIP like a bright smile accompanied with a pleasant personality. Nevertheless, I left a 24% TIP ... It's Christmas ... shrug . The RIBS ... I thought my ribs were just okay , not fall off the bone ribs. Nothing to write home about. Others in the group disagreed and said the ribs were delicious and ... wait for it ... "Fall off the bone" LOL The food was served with additional sides not included with the meal but at extra cost. I even had to ask for bread & butter. Baked potatoes ? Extra ! Still , the dinner was reasonably priced. No room for dessert. We were all stuffed. Then the check came. I passed it to the kid. He spit at me. I guess that was a NO ! I offered to arm wrestle him for the check. I even offered best 2 out of 3. He spit at me again. The nerve. So I manned up and paid the check. Despite my grumbling over my ribs everyone else was satisfied and we had an enjoyable evening dinning out. The restaurant itself is very nice and in a good location. I might be back ... Hmmm

    This place has got to be one of the most wasteful restaurants on the planet. Just like another…read morereviewer, I had high hopes for this place as it had great reviews and the fact that it was near public transit (assuming it gets high foot traffic). We went here after our flight landed in Chicago - instant regret. I ordered the chicken gyro, which, for some odd reason came with a quarter of white onion chunks, a whole Roma tomato, lots of lettuce, and a whole vat of tzatziki sauce. I requested feta, as that is pretty typical in a chicken gyro. I was told it would be an extra cost, to which I agreed. Yet imagine my surprise when I received not one, not two, but three entire sticks of whole feta. Not crumbled on top of my pita like I was expecting. Additionally these three blocks of feta ended up being $5. That's on me. If I had known to check the menu for whole feta sticks, I would have known better. Aside from that, the pita was almost completely inedible, as it was just coated and lathered in the tzatziki sauce. It came to me on a flat pita, completely impossible to pick up. I ended up requesting just a plain side pita to just construct my own. Wayyyy too much stuff wasted on one pita. Cook could have made a whole second pita from the very mid ingredients - would have made it more worth the price and excessive amount of feta. The side pita was reasonably priced. Just like the other hopeful reviewer, our fries were overcooked and practically hollow. Additionally, we each got a "side of fries" and that was practically a BASKET of fries. So...two baskets of too many overcooked fries. Another waste. I wanted to do more than pay and leave, but God did we have a rough flight. Was not expecting to be so disappointed upon stepping into what seems like a "Mom 'n Pop" kinda place. Run the other way so you don't feel guilty about the amount of food you are bound to waste.

    Jefferson Park Grill has been here as long as I can remember. It's kind of difficult to find…read moreparking as it's right in the bus turn around @ Jefferson Park. If your lucky you may find parking on the Milwaukee Ave right alongside but it's metered & very limited number of spaces. I finally stopped by as there was 'A' metered spot on Milwaukee. Jefferson Park Grill has a fairly large choice of items but my heart & stomach had already decided on The hobo skillet. The Hobo Skillet has hash browns, onions, sausage, bacon, cheese & 2 eggs on top over east. Delicious cardiac city.
