Found this place while searching for a place to eat breakfast while visiting IL. It had almost 5 stars on Yelp so we gave it a try. It's a small place on the inside with limited seating but there was space for our party of 6. The staff is very friendly. It's a bit expensive but absolutely worth it. Everything is very fresh. From the fresh made juices to the fruit to the eggs...it's all fresh and delicious. I would 1000% eat here again. read more

Quirky, quintessential, eggs. When you walk in, this place is like walking into a cartoon with the egg yolks colored walls and misspelled (on purpose) words on the walls. It is counter service so probably best to figure it out online before walking in. I ordered "the classic" with wicked bacon and a side of potatoes. I was feeling experimental today and this was where I went with it. The classic sandwich has an over medium egg with cheddar cheese, their "wicked sauce" (a tomato aioli) and I added the "wicked bacon" which was a sweetened bacon. The flavor contrast of the sauce and the bacon against the brioche bun, egg and cheese make the salty sweet contrast very subtle. The potatoes on the side were lovely. Salty, savory goodness which I wish were a little crispier. It was good. Overall, it was good. The price was a bit of a drag for me though. read more

Wicked Egg is okay--not horrible, but definitely not excellent. While I love and appreciate their farm-to-table concept, the execution just isn't there yet to justify the premium cost. Nearly everything we ordered lacked basic seasoning. On top of that, the kitchen struggled with egg temperatures; both the scrambled eggs and the over-medium eggs were noticeably underdone (the over-medium egg arrived closer to over-easy and broke entirely into the rest of my food). On the bright side, the juices were fresh and very good. Ultimately, the food is highly overpriced for the quality you receive. Breakfast for four came out to over $100. If you're going to charge top-notch prices, the execution needs to be top-notch too. Hopefully, they can tighten up their kitchen consistency, but for now, it's a bit of a letdown. read more

How am I just now trying this place the food is SO fresh and delicious. We love ordering breakfast on the weekend but somehow never ordered from here. Well that's about to change. I got the egg and potato burrito and my husband got an egg burger. Then we split French toast and a chia seed pudding. Everything delivered with a label on what it was and it was all so neatly packaged. This will be our new go to breakfast spot. I think next time we will physically check it out instead or ordering. read more

I've heard good things about this place and was so excited to try it during the last Lunch in the park in Libertyville. I got their classic in a bowl but had to wait about an hour for my friend to get her food from the food truck so the food was cold when I ate it which I'm sure made it not so great. I might give it another try. The hangover bowl looks yummy. I didn't eat at the restaurant but the place seems cozy. read more

My friend and I stopped by to get some grab and go breakfast before taking the train into Chicago. I have got to say the classic egg sandwich and the classic in a bowl egg breakfast was delicious and probably some of the best egg related breakfast I've ever had. The service was extremely quick and friendly and there is a lot of tables to sit inside and on the back patio of the location. Their menu is expansive as well with lots of other breakfast bowls and egg sandwich options I would want to try. If I'm ever back in libertyville I am definitely returning. read more

Waking up with a hankering for french toast and eggs, I perused my handy dandy Uber Eats app and stumbled upon The Wicked Egg. The price point and options were exactly what I was looking for and it was close enough that I'd be eating by the time I finished up some quick work. I ordered the french toast sans powdered sugar, an over easy egg, and truffle salt potatoes. The food arrived quickly and was still warm, but as I started opening items I had a little concern with the potatoes being incredibly overcooked. I tried a potato and they tasted exactly how they looked... burnt. Mind you, this was my first time meeting TWE. But I figured I could save it by masking the burnt flavor with some cheese and sautéd onions so I put it in the oven to hold heat at a low temperature to avoid burning them further but keep everything warm. Welp, the cheese and onions couldn't mask the flavor of burnt so I just ate the sautéd onions with the egg. But as I ate the egg I found it was undercooked with quite a bit of white still raw. I should probably be more concerned about the whites being undercooked, but I continued to eat the egg regardless until I crunched into shell. That was enough of that. On the positive side, the french toast was exactly what I was looking for and cooked to the perfect temperature. It is a smaller portion, but that's exactly what I wanted. I wouldn't be opposed to the french toast again, but given the egg and potato debacles, I'm not really keen on eating there again. Part of me wants to give grace because mistakes happen because I could forgive the egg, but there is no way that anyone packaged those potatoes and said, "Ah, yes, perfect. Burnt, just like our customers like them." The lack of care of what they send out of the kitchen doesn't give me any confidence in the quality or safety of food handling so for me TWE is a no. read more

Stopped into Wicked Egg for a Saturday fast-casual breakfast treat. This shop is located in the heart of downtown Libertyville. The inside has a cheeky design featuring every type of colorful egg decor one can while still being tasteful. The menu offers a variety of egg inspired brunch items from sandwiches to potato bowls, salads, sandwiches, and classic items. My fiancé and I each got a sandwich. I got the Keep It Simple and added avocado. This standard comes on a brioche bun with scrambled egg, cheddar cheese, and their signature sauce. There was plenty of egg to go around but I wished there was more of their signature sauce in it to add more flavor. My fiancé got The Classic which came with an over medium egg, bacon, cheddar cheese, sauce, also on brioche bun. His had a ton of bacon and way less egg to pair with it. He also tried their Sriracha sauce which added a nice heat. Overall, everything here is made to order and fresh. My only complaint is some of the ingredient ratios seemed off. If balanced, some of the flavors would pop and pair better. We left feeling content but not full which was nice. read more

I've wanted to try this place out for a while and finally had the opportunity, and I am so happy it lived up to my expectations! I'm kinda picky with how eggs are made, and their fluffy scrambled eggs really hit the spot! Their chorizo, wicked jam, and house-made hot sauce are all really flavorful and tasty. Their green juice, which is made fresh every morning and sealed in 12oz bottles is really delicious, definitely one of the best versions I've had. I really appreciate how they use pineapple and orange juice as the base instead of apple juice. The service here was amazing- everyone was so friendly and helpful, and they explained the menu when we mentioned it was our first time here. Even though no one else was eating in at 10am on a Tuesday, the door was constantly ringing with take out and delivery orders. They seem super popular, for good reason. Good quality of ingredients, fast preparation, and reasonably priced! I do highly recommend eating in if you have a chance, they have a great atmosphere! Upbeat music, silly puns on the walls, and right now lots of tasteful fall decor! read more

I've been meaning to check out The Wicked Egg, and it was the perfect late morning meal when you want good food without the fuss. I had the Classic on the brioche bun with an add on of Wicked Bacon. They did not skimp on the bacon! The bun held up nicely, not soggy and not burnt. Goldilocks would approve! My son got the Benedict bowl and it must've been great because he inhaled it and asked for a bite of my sandwich. We were offered a sample of the house made green juice -fresh, tasty, and a bright green, and the house made hot sauce was tasty but a little on the mild side for us. Overall, a great addition to Mainstreet. We will be back to try the burger and the burrito! read more

overall the worst breakfast and most expensive in libertyville. You could get a better egg sandwich at Mcdonalds the sandwich cost $13.00 and could of had some fruit. The bacon was so hard we couldn't eat it. As for the oatmeal small portion for the 13.00 could not compare to egg harbor. overall I would not recommend this place. also overpriced coffee I would have given this place a negative review and will not recommend this restaurant. read more

What a fabulous breakfast stop in downtown Libertyville. I decided to try this place out as I wanted somewhere quick but not fast food. I ordered online which was super easy; there are so many substitution options available, all of which are also very easy online. My food was ready for pick up in 5 minutes. I ordered the Denver bowl and substituted the ham with bacon. The potatoes were thick cut southern style hash browns. The bacon was crispy, chopped, and a generous portion, the cheese was delicious, however the eggs seemed a little skimpy. You can add extra egg for $2 - but that feels like a steep up charge for a bowl that is already $12. All in all, it was a great bowl and it did feel like a decent sized bowl for the price, despite the amount of eggs. This is definitely a place that I'd go again to try something different. read more

The wicked egg is exactly the breakfast vibes you'd find in the city. This is hands down the best breakfast in the area! Service was fast and there are plenty of options to choose from. I ended up ordering a breakfast sandwich with turkey bacon and it was the tastiest breakfast sandwich I've ever had! Also got the salmon bagel and it did not disappoint. It was super fresh and had the perfect amount of cream cheese. The employees were very nice and gave me a sample of their green juice to try. You can really tell all the ingredients they use are fresh and everything is homemade - including their hot sauce! Their hot sauce is so good that I'm about to just buy a bottle up if they have it. Prices are a bit on the higher side but they give you what looks like 4 eggs in a sandwich so the portion sizes make it reasonable. This is definitely a must try in the Libertyville area! read more

This morning, we tried a new fast/casual breakfast spot in downtown Libertyville. The restaurant was pretty full with a line of folks ordering. We didn't have to wait long, though, before the friendly cashiers took orders order and answered questions about the menu (no cold brew or iced coffee on offer...yet). There are many breakfast sandwiches and bowls on the breakfast menu, some with an interesting twist like the Denver breakfast sandwich and the Benedict Bowl. I opted for the Benedict Bowl. The Slagel Farms egg was absolutely amazing, as was the chopped ham. I was disappointed that I received breakfast potatoes instead of the advertised English muffin croutons; I'm betting I received somebody's custom breakfast bowl and will try the dish again in the future. We also shared an order of the naughty/delicious Wicked Bacon. I finished things off with a cup of Metropolis Coffee; I appreciated the option to choose between dark roast, medium roast, and/or decaf. I really appreciate the quality and freshness of the ingredients; often, I steer clear of fast/casual breakfast places because the ingredients aren't as fresh or are too carb-heavy. The restaurant is on Milwaukee in downtown Libertyville just a few blocks from the Metra station. There's lots of street parking and nearby public lots, so you might have to walk a block or two if the spots immediately in front are taken. read more

Needed a quick, delicious breakfast spot and The Wicked Egg delivered! Sandwiches were made to order and came out hot and fresh. Also they use premium quality ingredients and don't skimp on the fixings. Only critique is that we didn't get a whole lot of flavor from the jam. They were good with the hot sauce and ketchup though! read more

I love supporting small family owned businesses. The owners and staff were so incredibly friendly and really proud of their business. The decor was spot on too. Basically their whole menu offers gluten free options whether it be in a bowl or on gluten free bread. They also have a variety of salads. I tried the Denver Bowl, had a green juice (very flavorful and not too green tasting-fruity), and a fruit bowl. All the food tasted great! Those wondering what the secret jam is; it's not jam like toast but rather a secret sauce that is flavorful. The only thing I would recommend if offering a small side of fruit or bread with the main dishes. I cant wait to come back and try their Avgolemono (egg lemon soup) and other brunch items. read more

The only thing we enjoyed was the orange juice. We were greeted right away from one of the staff which made me think "cool this seems like a good start." There was NO place to sit so we took our food to go and sat in the car. My egg in my southern Benny bowl was so small i seriously was like "is this a joke!?" ALL the food we ordered was lacking so much flavor! Do yall use seasoning? With the price this place charges you'd think they could afford seasoning. We ordered pancakes for our 5 y/o and she took 2 bites and refused to eat the rest. Like it's pancakes how did they manage to make this taste EXACTLY like card board? We will never return to this place. A huge let down. read more

This was my 2nd time coming here for a bfast/brunch bowl. Portion sizing was good, I had some leftovers. Food could have a bit more seasoning for me. Also my bacon was way underdone so I literally had to fish all of it out of my bowl & cook it longer(really cook everything in the bowl through, except the potatoes). I'm not sure if I'll try them again. read more

Tried The Wicked Egg today. Entrance from Milwaukee is locked but we found the 'side door' - a bit weird. We were directed to order at the counter but then one of the servers offered to take our order at our table. More confused. She offered us water from a self service station...She also came back to clear our trays after eating when they have a clearly marked 'self service' counter to dispose of items. The print on the menu was so tiny - I had to pull up the menu on Yelp to read it. The food was great! Since it was our first time, we left thinking why is everything designed as self service but was prompted to enter a tip at check out? Of course we did since we actually had a good server who was super friendly. Pricey for brunch. read more

Decided to use my DoorDash credit to try this place. And got a Classic. The packaging was very neat, I love the presentation. The bread was very fluffy so it's easy to press down to eat. Bacon is candied so it's very delicious and not overpowering or greaser. Cheese was melty and soft and not chalky. Egg was also really good though it is pretty runny so much of the yolk got into the bottom of the bag. I would probably taking it out to eat on a plate next time. The sauce was on the sweeter side, and my husband thought it was lobster (lol!). The fresh greens were just OK. The heat probably made it taste less fresh but overall still a good selection of the greens and I like arugula. Pretty expensive overall for a sandwich this size but was very well made. read more
