I suppose it shouldn't be a surprise that at a restaurant named Peach's that is famous for its biscuits, two of the most amazing things on the menu are the biscuit and the homemade bourbon peach compote. You have a lot of options for how to combine these things, and what else to add to your breakfast, but I thought the biscuit sandwich was a particularly nice way to do it. Though it was just about as good to just get a second biscuit, and top it with butter, hot sauce, and compote. The service and ambience are wonderful as well, in exactly that way you want a breakfast diner to be. Our waitress warned us that a seven-top was about to place an order and helped us rush our order in first so we wouldn't have to wait; she brought crayons and paper to entertain our little one and maybe napkins to clean up his messes. The food came promptly and with exactly the right condiments and accoutrements. It reminded me how rarely you go to a restaurant where the staff is devoted so perfectly to getting you your food and helping you enjoy it as seamlessly as possible. Take your guests. Get the biscuits. read more

I love coming to Peach's for their peach coffee. The restaurant offers their peach coffee to purchase. You can order soy or almond milk to go with your coffee. Unfortunately there is no non-dairy creamer options at this point. My husband ordered the Peach Bourbon French toast and duck bowl which to his delight was pretty tasty. I ordered the 7-up pancakes and side of potatoes with veggies which were super yummy. You get a lot of food with your order so you will have to take a doggie bag home. Finally I have to give it up to our server. She was awesome. My husband ordered an omelette that it was undercooked. We had to send it back twice but she nonetheless did not seemed irritated or annoyed. At that point he ordered the duck bowl and it was perfect. I overheard that on the third Sunday of every month there is a live dj. If you been to this restaurant on the weekends it can be very noisy. I think it has something to do with the acoustics. During our recent visit it was a weekday so it did not appear to be very rowdy. read more

Went here for breakfast for the 1st time with my family on a Sunday morning (10:30am) after church. We were seated immediately upon arriving. There was no line & the restaurant was not busy. There were a few empty tables. We were seated at a nice big booth. Our service was terrible. We ordered our breakfast & waited at least 25-30 minutes. When the waiter bought our food, she ought it out in segments. I was confused. Our pancakes came 1st, then our meat 5 minutes later then our eggs. I didn't understand that. I was bothered by having to wait for ALL of my food on 1 plate. Once the waitress brought our food, we never saw her again. She didn't top off our coffee, refill our water, bring us syrup or even come back to ask us was everything ok. It wasn't. Food: The bacon was undercooked. The steak & egg was terrible. The 6 oz steak was over cooked & couldn't be cut with a knife. Everyone at my table food was served room temperature-it was not hot AT ALL. The potatoes were hard, unseasoned & were also undercooked. We couldn't find our waitress so, we started to flag other waiters down to obtain their attention. We had to request napkins, ask for our coffee to be topped off and ask for syrup when we all ordered french toast & pancakes. Our waitress never returned until it was time to bring our bill. I felt it was necessary to mention our complaints when she returned with a big smile asking "How was everything?" It was our 1st time but, there is no need to return. The service was poor & it was not crowded. The food was not tasty, it was under cooked, lacked flavor & was mediocre. This was simple breakfast food-no specialty orders, nothing complicated. Not only was the service poor, they couldn't prepare simple pancakes, bacon, potatoes & eggs. They ruined all of it. Peaches need to improve with their poor slow service & the cook needs to be ashamed of the food he prepared! read more

I had a very nice first experience at lunch. I had the Southern Eggs Benedict, what was for me a novel combination of biscuits and a very light gravy with poached eggs and chicken sausage. All the elements came together for a pleasing, easy to like dish. The service was warm and efficient, in a pleasant diner atmosphere. I look forward to my next visit and trying more of the menu, although I think the peach cobbler would have to be a carryout item, as the entree size left me no room. read more

Came here for breakfast while killing time before an appointment in the city. The establishment is pretty roomy, with about 10 tables, a section for larger groups and a pretty long breakfast bar. Since I was dining alone, I opted to sit at their breakfast bar. I grabbed a menu that had been left behind and sat myself. It took about 5 minutes for someone to come over and acknowledge me, but she was really friendly and had assumed I was waiting on someone else as there was another menu next to me. She took my order and offered reassurance in the choices I'd made. I ordered the shrimp and grits, substituting turkey bacon for the pork bacon, a side order of a salmon croquette, and tried their bacon each brewed coffee. The salmon croquette had a light crisp coating to it and came with what looked like a remoulade sauce. The shrimp were tail on (which I find a little annoying in dishes like this), the grits were creamy, and the turkey bacon was soft and cut into strips. The grits came with Texas toast which looked pretty good, but my appetite wasn't big enough to try. I also tried the peach coffee which was pretty good. The peach wasn't overwhelming at all, it was more of a subtle undertone. Overall, the experience was nice and the food wasn't bad at all, just nothing that stood out especially. read more

Nothing to write home about, I've seen people give good reviews about this breakfast spot but it wasn't too special in terms of the food. Everything could have used a little more seasoning, I had to add salt and pepper to the wings. The omelette could have used a little more love as well. The place bigger than I thought and everything is very clean. Our server was very nice and make sure everything came out as ordered. Not sure I'd return, you probably could get a better omelette at ihop. read more

Ambiance was very pleasant. However the service was not. Waited 10 minutes to have waiter take our order. After 45+ minutes of waiting our meal didn't come.

Peaches is a true gem in the area, from its bright and welcoming design to the wonderfully prepared modern take on southern soul cuisine. It's clear that the restauranteur had a vision to offer the community a special place to gather and dine. I had not been to the restaurant since the beginning of the pandemic so being that I was in the area I was excited to return. Unfortunately all of my fond memories of Peaches were tainted by the beyond unpleasant experience that I had with the manager of duty Jenae. Jenae could teach a masterclass in everything you should do to inconvenience offend and devalue customers. When I arrived, an extremely polite and professional hostess informed me and my guest that there would be a 15 minute wait for a table. We agreed to wait and sat in the waiting area which was filled of other patrons who had not been seated even though multiple tables were clean and available. As we waited Jenae arrived on the scene seeming flustered making it known verbally that she was "having a bad day". I attempted to acknowledge her with a smile and a nod several times but my efforts were rejected. At no point did she greet anyone. 30 minutes in to our 15 minute wait someone came in to give Janae flowers; and you would think that it would improve her mood however she continued to ignore the patrons. Eventually everyone was seated to dine with the exception of me and my guest. Jenae even sat a group of police officers as well as a group of 3 that came in after us. At that point we asked the hostess when we'd be seated. She apologized for the wait, informed us that the restaurant was short staffed and said she would check with Jenae on when we'd be seated. At this point we had waited 45 minutes and there were still multiple tables available. When the hostess was able to speak to Jenae (in our presence) Jenae refused to seat us, still not acknowledging us but saying loud enough for us to hear "I don't want to seat them because then they'd be waiting at the table too long for their food". Attempting to process the nonsensical reasoning of Jenae we decided to leave. As we left I approached the hostess asking for the name and title of the rude overseer of the restaurant and she informed me that her name was Jenae and she was the manager! With Jenae as an example of leadership I fear for Peaches. Patrons deserve to be treated well and no salmon croquette is worth the stress of a tyrannical lead lacking business acumen and common sense. In conclusion, my guest and I went to Lumes Pancake House located at 12401 S Harlem Ave, Palos Heights, IL 60463 where we had a wonderful experience. Please visit there Yelp page if you're interested in my my 5 star review. read more

The food was decent, but the waitstaff were unwelcoming and despondent. The place was not very busy but we were left waiting to have our orders taken, to receive our check, and to pay for our food. After we were seated and no one arrived to serve us, I noticed an empty station wit coffee canisters, cups, etc. I assumed it was self-service and fixed myself a cup. One of the staff came over and said, "that's not for you to be touching", in a rather rude manner. Then he just walked away. read more

Knocking off Southside bookmarks we chose to check this place out, the pics/reviews seemed like a good choice. NOT SO MUCH We arrived about 11am on a Weds, we were seated/greeted promptly. The space is bigger than it appears from the outside. They weren't packed, but had a nice crowd coming & going. We ordered fairly quickly: fried chicken entree, salmon croquettes & grits, & the biscuits & gravy. It took our meal about 15-20mins to arrive I assume do to the fried chicken. I tasted my biscuits & gravy and the overwhelming taste of cheese flooded my tongue (GROSS). I was instantly not a fan, I immediately asked the waitress was cheese in it? She replied no, but everyone thinks so. (Maybe they should tweak that ingredient then because it's not good) So I asked for a to go container and another order of their peach French toast (the chicken came with French toast, but I let my cousin eat those assuming I'd like my biscuits and gravy). At that point you'd think the server would ask did I not like my food? Would I like to replace it?, but nah nothing! LOL .... My fried chicken was bland, I had to dump salt on it. It was fried right and fresh though, and they gave me 5 wings. My French toast order came out after I devoured my wings. They were the saving grace of the place. My cousin said her salmon croquettes/grits were just ok. She felt it wasn't fresh & her French toast was too soggy to her. Lastly, the 2 star loss is for the food issues and I noticed the person who delivered the food carrying out our food in her arms so the food was touching her apron almost under her arm pits. I noticed this with my table and 1 other table. I DID NOT LIKE THAT!!! Our server just sufficed. She disappeared for long periods of times so I couldn't ask for things. I wouldn't go back, but check them out for yourself! read more

I took a church member there this morning for breakfast. I had not been here since the pandemic. The food was not good. I had the peaches breakfast $15.95. They bought out my pancake before my eggs, sausage and grits. The pancakes were cold when I finally caught the attention of my server and told hm my pancakes were cold and that ai want all my food together, he said I will warm them up. My order had hot grits, sausage cold eggs and pancakes. . The other order were the wings and grits. The wings were black. After telling to take back and bring fresh ones they did and half way through she had to ask for the sauce. The manager replied I am sorry for that. when told we won't be back he again I am sorry. Didn't take nothing off the bill. Bad food and service don't waste your time. read more

Great value for great food and great people. I enjoyed it. It was a great Sunday brunch spot.

Found this gem through yelp! It was busy! I asked how long was the wait... and the host said since I am solo I can just sit at the bar. Fine by me. The place was PACKED! As i sat, it took a few minutes for a waiter to greet me. During that time, i used Yelp on food recommendations. I opted for the shrimp n grits... and side of duck bacon. It took about 45 mins for my food to come. Whoa! I enjoyed my selections, especially shrimp n grits. The duck bacon wasn't anything special. It reminds me of my fave turkey bacon by Krasdale. Once checking out... you have to wait in line to pay. I have to remember that not everywhere is in a rush like us in nyc. Go check it out! read more

Y'all. If you eat meat, get the DUCK BACON! Get it. It's SO GOOD. Also -- salmon croquettes are so good! Love love loved the food. Service was absolutely wonderful too; super attentive. Seating is limited and not great for large groups. I would recommend max of 4-5 people. They have tables and booths and a traditional diner bar top. I absolutely loved the breakfast potatoes. There was a lot of flavor and spice. The eggs were fried like they were in a cast iron. I can't stop thinking about that duck bacon though. I will be back! read more

Here's the thing. Where else in any city can you order an omelette and they charge you extra for potatoes, grits, or any sides. You close at 2 but stop taking orders or sit down at 1:40 which has happened more than once. Black owned certainly shouldn't mean inferior customer service. This is certainly it!! read more

My 1st experiencing at Peach's...although this Pandemic has prevented me from getting the full on dining experience- the staff was friendly and attentive and gave tip top curve side service lol .

I was allowed to enter the restaurant I can't recall the lady who took my order but she was pleasant. food was ready in 15mins . I had french toast served w/ caramelized peaches with the cheese grits. My partner had the wings which reports was an enjoyable experience.we will be back. read more

Peaches is a great local breakfast restaurant. We enjoy the shrimp and grits, their palmer tea and other tasty items. Unfortunately we are very unhappy with our recent experience and the lack of service we experienced. We are not sure we will go back again. We visited on a Sunday afternoon at 2:20pm. The restaurant closes at 3pm. We were seated and then waited for a waitress. This took about 10 minutes. The waitress asked us if we wanted something to drink and we told her. We got not water or silverware. We waited, and waited. I told my wife I should get the waitress and she said we should wait. All other tables around us were getting service and their orders. At around 2:50pm, the waitress (who I found out is also the manager) came to our table with my drink, not my wife's and no silverware. She asked us what we wanted to order and then went away. We waited, and waited. I told my wife I should get the waitress and she said we should wait. At 3:20pm the waitress came back and said that they were out of what we ordered and do we want to order something else. At that point we decided to leave. This situation was very unfortunate and are not sure why this unpleasentness happened. We will not go back, nor recommend it to others. read more

A visit to my hometown is never complete until i've had a chance to partake in the local fare. This trip i was introduced to Peaches a large welcoming and bright space in the heart of Bronzeville. Sherri the Manager greeted us with a warm smile and as we were early we had our pick of seats. Our booth was comfortable and spacious. Aby, our server, as I was a newbie, made me feel at ease as she explained the menu and the popoular dishes. I ordered the Peach Bourbon French Toast and Duck Bacon. Both excellent choices. What I enjoyed about the French toast was it was as described. Peaches simmered down in Bourbon and sweetened with Brown Sugar a perfect blend of flavors and no syrup needed. I also appreciated the fact they didnt bog it down with powdered sugar and whipped cream. Now i am a bacon purist and when Aby recommended the Duck bacon i was skeptical. Again however a spot on suggestion. A leaner meat, not greasy and a meaty satisfying bite. Without hesitation i recommend Peaches to locals and visitors alike. read more

Quiet spot not too crowded, I had the peaches special with French toast eggs and bacon. My colleagues had shrimp and grits, the food was good but unfortunately I found an eyelash on my cup and my fiancé found a piece of hair in his eggs..I would stop in again but maybe their chefs and or food runners need to cover their hair..this is the only reason I am not giving them a 5. I also was rather annoyed that I went with a group to celebrate babies, like a small shower luncheon and for me to be the pregnant person, I was served my food last and my order was wrong. read more

I keep trying for you... You have duck bacon and it brings me back... The service however is like a boyfriend who is good in bed but treats you shitty. I recently had the duck bowl with a sunnyside egg on top. hello!! So good. I had to ask 3x for the onion gravy, which is chicken gravy but looks like cream of chicken soup. The bowl had onions, spinach, red potatoes and cheese. I was in lust. I couldn't finish it. The next day I fried an egg and put it on my leftovers. Mmm mmm. So good. read more

I had passed the "Peaches...coming soon" sign for nearly two years and was awaiting the day they opened their doors. I had not been on the area for some time and was pleasantly surprised to see it finally opened. I went online to look at Yelp reviews and decide on my entire before going on. I ordered my food to go with the cashier. I waited 25 minutes after given a 10 minute wait time. The cashier goes ghost for another 10 minutes, shows back up and says let me close out these 5 people's order and I'll grab your food. Finally after another 10 minutes grabs my order and all of the food was cold. I'm still okay with it (even though service is horrible for the middle of a weekday) and she even offers to comp me a sweet tea - which I appreciated, but tasted like liquid diabetes. The bill is $22 for a Peaches waffle and one salmon croquette. I leave and drive away, while checking my bag and she failed to include their signature Peaches in the bag. The name of the restaurant is called, "Peaches!" I'm baffled. A mess. Why? I'm done and starving. I was so exhausted and hungry, but can't stomach to give my hard earned money to mediocre food and service. So at that moment I drove back to the restaurant and asked for my money back. They had the nerve to offer to put the order in again. I said after waiting almost an hour for this food, I had no interest in wasting more of my time. They refunded my money and I left hungry. I will not be returning. The irony of it all! read more

Horrible service, over priced food and the food was mediocre. Outside of that the location is nice.

I USED TO LOVE PEACHES!! I defended peaches in regards to their "terrible service" for the last couple of years. I did so again two weeks ago when a couple friends went to Facebook and spoke of their displeasure in service. Unfortunately, I was hit with this same issue today...but MUCH WORSE. Slow service is one thing, but utter disregard for the customers is an entirely different one. When I came in, with my family at 9:20, we were seated almost immediately. It took about 15 minutes for someone to take our order. Once taken, we sat for another 40 min waiting. The restaurant had a good amount of people in there, so I didn't bring anything up and gave them the benefit of the doubt. Unfortunately, I then saw a woman walk in, walk to the kitchen, then sit at the bar. Within a couple minutes, the woman received her entire meal. At this time, multiple groups of people were still waiting in disgust as their meal was not served yet. At this point, while the woman was eating, we were approached by our waitress stating that our food would be out soon. At 10:15, I had enough and joined a couple other groups by leaving. Come to find out, after speaking with an employee, the woman sitting at the bar is "one of the owners". THIS IS THE REASON I'M WRITING THIS REVIEW. In no way, should the owner see their restaurant struggling, then walk in the back, take ready food (which in my mind is someone else's order) and eat in front of her hungry, disappointed and disgruntled customers. Peaches was once one of my favorite restaurants in the neighborhood. It is now off my list and I will no longer support them or defend them. read more

The PROs: friendly staff, nice decor/ambiance, unique menu items such as duck bacon, shrimp grits, wild salmon omelette, and peach coffee. Food was hot and fresh! I had the biscuits and gravy with were the BOMB and best I ever had; would definitely eat those again! The peach French toast was also delicious and the duck bacon was good! Cons: cheesy grits don't taste like cheese at all ‍ were pretty bland. My friends had The fried chicken, while it was hot & crispy, it didn't have much flavor. The crab croquet was a little dry. The shrimp grits were about 3 stars because the grits were bland and can't taste the cheese but the shrimp & bacon topping was flavorful & good! Conclusion: I would come again. I believe in supporting local businesses. I would keep trying different menu items to find the best ones :) read more

This restaurant used to be good but not now. It was not a very good breakfast. Don't see how you mess up a salmon patty in an AA neighborhood. No catfish on Friday in the hood.

I really loved coming across this restaurant! It was right on the way to the science and industry museum- but what really got us was the gluten free pancakes!! My daughter loved them I had the duck bowl- duck bacon, Potatoes, spinach, sautéed onions and peppers, cheese and an egg on top! It was a great serving size. The staff were very friendly, and the vibe was excellent. I would definitely return. I will definitely return The reason I didn't give them five stars is that there was a new waitress helping us, and it took longer than we had anticipated. I'm not sure how fast service normally is. The place was packed. Regardless- give this place a chance! read more
