Really enjoyed the lunch special at Land & Lake Kitchen near Chicago's riverfront. I ordered the chicken sandwich, and it was tender, juicy, and delicious. The hot honey sauce paired perfectly with the soft brioche bun. The atmosphere was calm but welcoming, making it a perfect before-work lunch spot since I work in the afternoon. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back again soon! read more

I came here for brunch with friends.It was nice being able to sit outside. Tables had umbrellas so we weren't out in the glaring sun but was able to enjoy the nice weather. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. I wouldn't say they had a lot of variety for brunch. They basically had scrambles, omelets, and benedicts. I chose the smoked salmon omelet, which was $1 more than the smoked salmon scramble my friend ordered. Looking at them side by side there wasn't much difference between the two, so not sure what the extra $1 went toward. They offered one side with the main dish. Given the cost of $18, I wished they offered something additional like a small salad or mixed fruit. I also ordered a mocktail for $13. I felt this was pretty pricey considering it tasted like lemonade. I probably would not choose this again. Would I come here again? Sure if there was nowhere better to go. But considering the location I don't think that would happen. At least I can say I tried it once. read more

Staying at the LondonHouse, eating breakfast here was an easy and economical choice. We were seated immediately and the place is bright and airy. We ordered a vegetarian omelet with goat cheese and French toast with our breakfast credit. The coffee was hot and strong. The food was delicious and the extra biscuit we ordered was also great. Our server Jhony was super nice and made sure our coffee mugs were full. They have a cute room on the side where a girls brunch would be appropriate. read more

Brunch today was at Land & Lake at the London House Chicago. We were lucky enough to get a table by the window and had a wonderful city view to enjoy while eating. My husband had the tomato and goat cheese scramble, and I had avocado toast with poached eggs. My husband thought his breakfast was tasty, although the scramble wasn't a large portion. My avocado toast was good with perfectly poached eggs. The breakfast potatoes on both our dishes were a good-sized portion. We also ordered a fruit cup to share. I felt $7 was a lot for a small cup of bananas, blueberries strawberries. he also ordered a chocolate croissant to share. Unfortunately, it was very dry. Maybe if they had heated the pastry it would've tasted better. I was disappointed the restaurant did not offer a cappuccino or latte, only regular black coffee. I'd go back for the avocado toast. read more

Land & Lake is next door the the hotel I stayed at and me and my friend loved it! We ordered the American Breakfast and we split the plate! The food tasted great! Our server, Charlie, was the best! He fun, on top of it, and always came to our table to ask us how we are doing! The vibe was also amazing! Chill. Open. A good place to have brunch! We went to breakfast there about three times and ordered the same thing because it was that good! I would definitely come here again! read more

I had the tomato soup (yum), it was super creamy and great for a cold day. The caesar salad was okay, could have been better but was still pretty good. The service was great and I loved the view! I went right at sunset so we got to see that with the city views while still sitting inside! read more

2nd time & year coming here with my coworkers prior to an outing on the river. Upon arriving our host was very interesting - she immediately told us that we needed to get our breakfast order in or we won't have any. We said okay as we were seated. The waiters came (with one in training) and took our bottomless mimosa orders. They dropped off the drinks and said they'd be back to take our orders and are that we didn't see them for 30+ min. We were worried cause at this point we were going to miss breakfast! They finally came and took our order and then the hostess came over to tell us she's going to let us pass. Like it was our fault that our waiter didn't come to take our breakfast order in a timely manner especially after her initial warning. That's why 2 stars are taken away. Anyway after that debacle we kept drinking and finally got our food and that's where the 3 stars come into play because the steak and potatoes were great. Steak was cooked really well! We did leave feeling good as well from the mimosas so that's a plus. read more

I visited Land & Lake Kitchen on a weekday evening while in Chicago, and it was very easy to get a table since it was fairly quiet around dinner time. The restaurant is located on the first floor of the London House, which makes it a convenient spot if you're in the area. For my meal, I ordered the Lemon & Herb Brined Boneless Half Chicken with tricolor carrots, cilantro lime rice, and lemon butter sauce. Oh my gosh. It was absolutely delicious. The chicken was so tender and juicy. Also, my server was friendly and welcoming and even helped me finalize my order since I was a bit indecisive. Overall, it was a great dining experience. I can't wait to visit again the next time I'm in Chicago. read more

We came inside for a quick Father's Day breakfast. It was pretty packed but I didn't have to wait to be seated. It was clean and very organized on the inside! Server came out in a timely manner. I ordered the Chicago hash. It was okay. The sauce wasn't my favorite nor was the corned beef. It's not the canned corned beef. It was good I just think I'd do no sauce next time. I stuck with water because I prefer fresh squeezed orange juice. It was a quick bite to eat! Probably in and out in 40 minutes read more

So cute little sidewalk restaurant. They were very busy. Our poor waiter was run ragged. The food was very tasty. I loved the chocolate croissant. At one point the waiters tray became off balanced and a can of beer fell at our feet spraying me with beer. The waiter was so sorry he didn't charge us for our drinks. Also he mentioned they were a breakfast restaurant and they ran out of Eggs and bacon. I think the weekend before Memorial Day caught them off guard. It was very busy in the city. At any rate I would recommend this restaurant- staff nice and food delicious read more

Nice spot to check out while on vacation. I was wanting Bottomless Mimosas and the hotel I was staying at had just stopped serving breakfast but informed us about going to the hotel next door which we did. Service was great and mimosas were hitting. Food was good as well! read more

This restaurant is attached to a couple of hotels on Wacker street near the river market, which is convenient for travelers. The service is acceptable although I asked to be moved as we were seated by the bussing area which was noisy (and then had to search for the server to pay). The food was absolutely delicious. They serve breakfast all day with mimosas if you are interested. The vegetarian omelet was one of the most flavorful I've tasted. The chili is also very tasty. There is inside and patio seating with sports in the TV's in the bar. read more

Hotel breakfasts can get redundant. Typically a sad parade of rubbery eggs. But Land & Lake inside the LondonHouse is solid. Like, actual restaurant you'd visit on purpose solid. This place leans into the "we're not your average breakfast" vibe with stuff like breakfast mac & cheese, because, apparently, it's never too early to disrespect your arteries. They've got all the classics too, if you're boring--I mean, traditional. Eggs, toast, avocado things. Service is friendly, the space is airy and stylish. read more

Nice place for a hearty, delicious breakfast, brunch, or lunch near the riverwalk. They're attached to Londonhouse hotel. Sit outside, sit inside sit on the raised bench and table, sit at the bar, just have a seat and quit whining. I love the simplicity of the menu. A large, all day breakfast/brunch menu is the highlight. They do have salads, burgers, bowls, entrees, you know, Midwestern comfort food, slightly leveled up. Many come for the mimosa brunch and happy hour. The atmosphere is loud and casual, which feels appropriate. Try the smoked salmon omelet, its delicious but very hearty and filling. Full bar, friendly staff, prompt service for us too! A great place to slip into for a bite. read more

Amazing! Bottomless mimosas were well worth it! The eggs Benedict were also amazing. The atmosphere was wonderful, as well as the service

Located on E. Wacker Dr. between 'The River Hotel' and 'Ocean Prime'. We walked in here on this busy Saturday morning and were seated immediately. They have outside and inside seating with a full sized bar. We tried their 'Croissant Sandwich' and 'Land Benedict' with a side of toast and coffee. Food tasted amazing, and coffee was fresh, such a satisfying breakfast. We were very impressed with the staff here. Everyone we encountered was super friendly and attentive. The manager, 'Tim', was working just as hard as the servers. He made sure to check up on us and keep our coffee cups filled. Shout out to our server, 'Montrell', who was extremely attentive and often checked on us also. Although it was very busy, they seemed to be super organized. This is a sign of excellent management. Overall, we had an awesome breakfast experience here and will definitely return while in town. read more

Their coffee is almost undrinkable. Service a tad slow. Highlight was my omelette. I asked for cheddar vs. Swiss in my omelette. It was served with fried potatoes and Bernie's sauce. A slice of tomato would have been a nice accompaniment. The setting is lovely. By far the best part. read more

The food was pretty bad. Got a regular (land) Benedict. Egg was super watery. Food came out within a few minutes of ordering, so they definitely prioritize speed. Sadly it was almost inedible because everything was just soggy and the egg couldn't even be picked up with a fork. Service was ok, definitely slow. Atmosphere was nice but will eat elsewhere if I ever stay here again. read more

A convenient location for us as we were staying next door at Club Quarters. Typical breakfast fare, hubby had the 2-egg breakfast, I had the smoked salmon Benedict. Good portions, good service. The server who waited on us was disgruntled about the work flow the previous day of the river dying festivities. Think that conversation should have taken place elsewhere, not in front of customers. read more

Decent spot for breakfast! I came here when my family was staying at London House since the hotel has breakfast vouchers. The menu isn't huge for a breakfast place but there are still plenty of options. Definitely feels like a hotel restaurant. Veggie omelette was a little weird. It had a lot of creamy things in it and I would have liked some actual vegetables. It was more like avocado mash, goat cheese, and marinara sauce all together. Potatoes were well seasoned. My second visit I got the yogurt and granola. Decent portion but I wish it came with more fruit than just a few bananas! I also got the fruit cup and added that on top Good spot if you are staying at the hotel and want something easy and low key but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here. read more

I have been into this place twice already in my trip to Chicago. I just got here last night. For dinner I had the blackened walleye sandwich and a glass of Pinot noir. The walleye was phenomenal, only complaint is it could have used a little more fish. For breakfast today I'm having the Lake Benedict. Also very good and a strong serving of salmon. I would order both items again. I sat at the bar both times and no complaints about service, always have what I need. It's a cute restaurant and I love the feel of it. It's right by my hotel so I'll likely be back again this week, I need convenience read more

Service was fine. We only ate here bc it's connected to the hotel we're staying at (London House). The avocado on the toast was so old. Not fresh whatsoever. The pancakes also had a very strange texture, almost tasted undercooked. My husband's steak n eggs was okay. Sat outside one day and there was a homeless man with his @ss out right next to our table, and he was smoking. read more

This was a pretty disappointing spot. The service was good and I had so complaints with it but the food was not great. Everything felt so basic and for the prices they were charging that just felt frustrating. I ordered avocado toast and my toast wasn't even properly toasted. The avocado part was literally just plain avocado with some lemon in it. There was no other seasoning! We also got fries and they tasted like they weren't even made fresh, they were floopy! My friend got the pancakes and she said they were fine, basic. I don't think I'd come back here. read more

Great fast breakfast! Heading out of town, a group of us were looking for a quick breakfast before we all headed our separate ways. Land & Lake Kitchen was a quick walk around the corner in the bitter cold and was well worth it. Upon walking in this weekday morning, the host immediately seated us and placed us in a semi-private room in the corner to accommodate our group of 7. I ordered the French Toast, orange juice and black coffee. The French Toast was thick and delicious. Perfectly cooked. I opted to not go with the banana's that it was served with and went with the straight up butter and maple syrup. Nothing fancy with the syrup, as it was pretty average, but the meal itself hit the spot just right. Orange juice and coffee were spot on as well. Would I go back? Definitely. It was quick, easy, not too pricey and all around a perfect visit. The menu isn't too big so it's fairly easy to make your decision but there are a lot of great things to check out on the menu. read more

Cute little restaurant attached to a hotel, but the experience was underwhelming. Customer service was super basic. Our waiter wasn't very attentive and even forgot requests after writing them down. The steak was terrible, and overall, the food was bland. I guess the highlight was the bottomless mimosas, but even those were just okay. If you're looking for a quick bite and convenience, this place might work. Outside of that, I'd keep walking. read more

Came for the great deal on bottomless mimosas, but was pleased with our meal too! The breakfast chili was good, but nothing show stopping. I wish the mimosas came in multiple flavors because it was just one pitcher after another of the classic OJ. Our server was pleasant and attentive. The location is a pretty touristy area, so the windows provided good people watching, but the inside felt like a normal restaurant besides that the restrooms were upstairs in the hotel. read more

My husband and I are staying at the London House Curio Hilton hotel. We stopped by here for brunch. Our host Jhony was fabulous. He exudes exceptional customer service. He was attentive, quick and responsive. We truly enjoyed our meal and the complimentary Pineapple juice at the end of our meal Jhony has definitely set the standard for what's expected when dining out. He made a huge impression and this restaurant is very blessed he works on their team. Bravo Jhony!! Mario & I are thankful for a great time here. Will be sure to return for brunch before checking out Wednesday. Oh and I have reccomended to friends and family who frequent london house to stop by this restaurant. What a treat. Thanks read more

Cute spot downtown but wouldn't be my go to. Came here for a friend's birthday brunch with seven people. Our table was sooooo small we were smushed in really tight even though we had a reservation and they knew a large group was coming. I had the avocado benedict with potatoes on the side. It was very good! I love poached eggs and avocado toast-- the bearnaise sauce elevated it to another level. They also let us bring our own cake and cut it for us which was nice! For a party of seven, the food came out incredibly fast except for dish which was really a bummer. By the time the last person in our group had gotten their food, all of our plates were cold. The service here was unfortunately lacking. From the start, we had no idea who our server was and it seemed like there were lots of miscommunications between the staff. Also, they charged us an 18% service charge as well as a 3% CC fee without telling us. Our receipt was encouraging us to tip 15-20% on top of the service charge which I found to be kind of extreme. Overall it was an okay dining experience but I wouldn't seek it out again. read more

While visiting Chicago, my best friend and I, stopped by Land & Lake Kitchen for their brunch. Overall, it was an okay experience. The overall wait time(s) for a table we're average; however, for quicker service we opted to sit at the open seating at the bar area. The waitress we had at the bar was not as attentive as we would have wanted. So, that took away from the overall experience. As far the decor and ambiance of the restaurant, it was quite lively! The outdoor seating - which the wait was very long for - looked like it was definitely a vibe! If it were not slated to rain and we didn't have another tour to go at a museum nearby, we may have waited to be seated outdoors. But alas, we had a time crunch to adhere to. So, we made the best of our seats at the bar! Now, when it comes to the food, I enjoyed EVERY BIT of my French Toast. It was just the right amount of sweet and it was super filling. I also had their bottomless mimosas (not pictured) and they were great! The price point was also very reasonable considering bottomless brunch can get a bit pricy. Sadly, my best friend had the breakfast burger and wasn't a fan of the burger at all. She allowed me to try a piece of her burger, and I have to agree, it was not the best. Beyond that, decent restaurant. Staff is friendly. Food and drinks (from the brunch menu) are, for the most part, good. Overall service was average. read more
