Serious Eats: Best known as a place to take cooking classes, this Bucktown shop also has some to-go options.
Carie Badgett: Great brunch. They use a lot of local produce, so it's really fresh. Kid-friendly, too.
Time Out Chicago: The breakfast menu will please fans of cream cheese; the gooey stuff makes an appearance in the stuffed French toast, topped with maple-pecan syrup. Try it with the rosemary-roasted ham. Read more.
TJ Callanta: Plenty of reasons the wife and I are 6 year regulars. Easily the best brunch spot the NorthSide has to offer. Bread Pudding Pancakes, Sweet & Savory FT, & The Hash? The whole menu won't disappoint.
