Rolled into Chatterbox Café in Kankakee because I saw a review talking about pastrami pancakes…read more Now, I'm always down for the weird-but-good food combos... except, plot twist--that review was for the wrong place. No pastrami pancakes here. Bummer. That said, breakfast was basic but good--eggs, bacon, coffee, the classics. Sometimes that's all you really need. The vibe is super local, definitely one of those "everybody knows your name" joints. Felt like I should've walked in wearing a nametag that said "Norm." points because my waitress was a Styx fan--nothing like sipping coffee while talking Come Sail Away. Rock and eggs? Solid combo. tip: you can't add your tip later on the receipt, gotta do it when you ring out. I just left a cash tip--felt right anyway. Kept it homie.Overall? Cozy, friendly, no-frills, and exactly the kind of place you want when you're eating with the locals.

Somehow, Someway, they make simple items like scrambled eggs and (buttery) hash browns taste better than the other guys. For the hungry man, I recommend the butcher's omelet or the meat lover's skillet. Deservedly so, this joint is usually busy, but the tableside atmosphere is relaxed. Food is delivered promptly, and your coffee cup will be refilled. The service is outstanding and competent. One reason is that many employees have worked there for over 10 years, and many for over 15. I am now a regular and visit once or twice a week. P.S. Their homemade potato chips are cooked per order and delivered warm to your table!

What a great place!…read more This was our first time at Eggheadz. Two of us met a third person here at 9:30 am on a Thursday. They only seat you when your party is complete, so we waited about 5 minutes until our third person arrived. They have a row of chairs - so that was nice. The hostess staff was quite pleasant as was all the waitstaff. Kat was our server and she did a great job. My wife and I split the Gypsy Skillet. It was real tasty and it was huge. We could barely finish it. Our friend's breakfast was also huge. She took half of it home including half her pancakes. We all agreed that Egg Headz Cafe is our new go to when we get together in the area. Thanks Kat and all at Egg Headz for great meals and great service. We will be back.

We were surprised in the end as desert is included with each dish so we got two pieces of pie, strawberry rhubarb and peach. Over all a great visit except for the wait. 4.2 stars.

Found a couple promising choices and we settled on northside diner. And it was a great choice. Inside it has that quirky retro 50s, nostalgic feel. Memorabilia and art around the small building. Standout performances by the service staff. As it should have been, it was extremely busy on a Saturday morning. There also happened to be a festival in town. Which may have even subtracted from the amount of people waiting to get a booth, as there were some food trucks and other activities going on. But that being said, we sat at the little counter and ordered your basic breakfast with eggs and bacon and toast plus some biscuits and gravy and I was pleased that I didn't order the full-size biscuits and gravy because the half size was as big as a normal size at other restaurants. Gravy was full flavor, not gritty at all, and there was more than adequate amounts of sausage. Sometimes you have to play hunt the sausage, which is just a scary statement. I had ordered an extra well-done sausage patty just in case I needed to cut up more and had it. But I would've been OK without. Happy with our choices plus a tremendous value. Highly recommend anyone coming into the Indiana dunes area looking for a great breakfast value I believe the place closes at 1 o'clock, so keep that in mind. Now we were there on a Saturday so please check hours. Enjoy.
