Kacie DreilingJuly 14, 2017Our favorite breakfast in the city. Worth the wait. (They'll text you, so just go to Millenium Park across the street!) Service is fast, friendly, and organized. Signature pancakes are a must order.

Jung KimNovember 18, 2017Was here at 7:05 on a rainy Saturday and it was almost 30% of the seat was occupied. By the time i left, it was full. Food is really great. One of the best pancakes i had in my 40 years of life:)
Tanisha CrichlowOctober 13, 2017The pancakes here are amazing - try the caramel apple pecan. The service is also amazing but please be prepared for a wait. If you can get there early do so if not you will wait but it is so worth it
s h .August 28, 2016Awesome brioche French toast! Suggestion to get takeaway over weekends and picnic at the park from just a few minutes walk away.
Emily HarnishMarch 25, 2017Signature Berry Bliss pancakes, side of bacon with a Vanilla Berry Latte and you can't go wrong! Ask for a side order if you have a smaller appetite, like me. A MUST EAT in downtown Chicago!
- Claire WatkissMarch 27, 2018YOU MUST ORDER SIGNATURE BERRY BLISS PANCAKES! They melt in your mouth! Denver skillet also very yummy— and great for sharing. Make sure to get your name in ahead of time with the NoWait app.
Omar AROctober 10, 2018Had the veggie omelette with cheese along with the signature berry pancake and they were excellent. Waiters were super friendly and the order came in in no time despite the place being packed.
JaclynJuly 19, 2017If you have a long wait, consider (1) going to Millennium park to see the famous Bean Sculpture (one of the largest in the world) or (2) wait inside Prudential Plaza in the cosy chairs & charge 📱
Terence Steward IIAugust 4, 2013So... Everything we had, and I mean EVERYTHING was superb. Mexicana skillet, cinnamon roll pancakes, biscuits and gravy, then topped off the meal with red velvet French toast. It's worth the wait!
ShelleyJune 23, 2013Super delish. I ordered the Venetian skillet w the special wild berry pancakes on the side. They were two medium sized pancakes and absolutely delicious. Don't come here without having pancakes.
Loriah PopeSeptember 9, 2018Come early and put your name on the list, then walk around at Millenium Park to preemptively burn off the thousands of calories you should DEFINITELY consume in pancakes here.
Kimmie OhhFebruary 25, 2020The food here is phenomenal! You obvi come here for their Wildberry pancakes! Get any of their breakfast dishes & substitute their pancakes for specialty ones - get their signature berry bliss!
Mohamed AlGowaiflyJune 19, 2013What a good choice for breakfast, don't miss nutella cream crepe, pancakes also are amazing, just pick any thing from the menu, everything looks great.
Travis TindellDecember 21, 2017Great pancakes and brisket hash. Food is good, service bleh, atmosphere nice. No way it’s worth the wait though. Waited about 2.5 hours. The “no wait” app was about an hour off.
Michael CFebruary 24, 2019They are serious about their pancakes. Come hungry. Ask for smaller portions or share. Berry Bliss is hard to beat.
Scott ThornMarch 16, 2019Eggs any style with sausage links, must order any of their specialty pancakes . Fast and friendly service. The is a must visit for a fantastic breakfast.
XinnieAugust 23, 2017Wait is usually very long so we typically leave our name and go shop on state street in the mean time. Their menu is big and everything I've tried so far have been awesome! Sweet to savory!
Mark SimmonsApril 26, 2014Get the berry bliss pancakes. Thank me later! Come hungry, it's a 5-stacker! Lord, these were some of the best pancakes I've ever had.
Raphael MbarekJuly 7, 2017Being there early is essential. As well as using the app on yelp to keep an eye on the waiting list while trying to cover the time. Been waiting for 80 minutes. Good food - fast service.
Serious EatsOctober 7, 2013Wildberry Cafe excels at skillets, pancakes, omelettes (the baked, browned, fritatta-ish kind, not the delicately balanced, just set and folded French kind), and the like.
Thank you Wildberry Pancakes & Cafe, for being an outstanding place to soothe my hunger. The Intelligentsia Caramel Machiatto, Sizzling Skillet with all the meat and Cinnamon Swirl Pancakes was A+
Elisa LiAugust 4, 2013mexicana skillet was SO good - spicy! and the rapsberry white chocolate pancake special was amazing (not pictured). food took 30 min though and my friends skillet was not super warm though..
Yonca TokbaşAugust 26, 2019The staff is really good and the service is soo fast. Our order came faster then the speed of light. I thought the sizes were big for 1 person. The avocado toast is good in size..- Paula LapresseOctober 18, 2015Worth the hour wait! The "Mexicana" w/ their house made salsa! The corn hash! The Red velvet French toast and fresh berries! Just the right sweetness! Even their tea presentation is amazing!
Bajda SpacFebruary 26, 2017Wildberry crunch oatmeal. The portion is huge, its like breakfast for 3 days for me, but I ate it all, it was sooo good! And the waitress was so nice to me!
Angie OsmanskiDecember 18, 2015You get SO much food here!! Expect to take something home. Cannot go wrong with any of their breakfast items. Loved the Tuscan chicken panini!! Great coffee/espresso options too!
Katie CaseySeptember 4, 2014Amazing experience. Great service. Delicious food. Maybe the best breakfast I've ever had. Had the garden skillet and the "berry bliss" pancakes. Husband's cinnamon roll pancakes out of this world!
Reuben PeñaJuly 14, 2017Had the S'More pancakes and it was SOOO good! The strawberry glazed Belgium waffle was good too. Waffle was crispy and so was the the thick cut bacon. Lemonade passion fruit was average in my opinion.
Jade WallaceApril 7, 2014The best breakfast ever I've eaten! Get the cinnamon roll pancakes & wildberry signature pancakes, butcher skillet, and eggs Benedict w/ chorizo sausage! Also the white chocolate mocha was amazing!
Jessica MirandaJanuary 5, 2015Delicious skillets, recommend the Mexicana skiller. Great french toast. Their specialty pancakes are super tasty. The best place for breakfast and brunch. Definitely worth the half hour wait.
Kevin M. McNally, CMPAugust 20, 2018I don't eat a lot of pancakes. After reading reviews...ok, I'm a new fan. Great spot for Breakfast or Brunch. Staff is friendly and yes, this place is popular. Portions are good too.
Michael K.July 4, 2014Wow I was put off by the long wait. But I have to admit the food was incredible. Get the eggs Benedict with corned beef hash. To die for! The banana cream pancakes were incredible!
Luke WangJuly 23, 2016Hearty breakfast for a great price. The specialty pancakes are a must try on the side of something savory. Expect to wait if you arrive after 8am on a weekend.
Sal ConcaJuly 15, 2012Ate here twice during this trip the pot roast Benedict was to die for. The fig nut n honey pancakes were just epic
Paul HaggardMarch 30, 2016Pancakes are good but they entrees and sandwiches are incredibly tasty, as well. Best sit down breakfast option in the loop by far and they serve intelligentsia coffee.
Anthony AlburgerSeptember 17, 2013I went here twice the first time I went to Chicago. At least an hour wait, but absolutely worth it. The food is so good and comes out pretty fast. The amount of food you get is way more than enough.
elizabeth johnsonFebruary 9They have options for GF and you would never even know the difference. This is hands down the best breakfast spot in the loop! HUGE portions and yummy coffee.
Melay MApril 27, 2018Incredible pancakes highly recommended but on weekdays otherwise you’ll have to wait to sit. What to order: Signature pancakes and Benedicts
Nora RoslanOctober 8, 2014Such a good place for breakfast/brunch! Delicious foods, good ambiance, friendly staff and quick service 😊 definitely i will come back again!
- Kimmie OhhFebruary 25, 2020Their regular order of pancakes come with 5! Their “side order” size (the ones that come with main breakfast dishes) come 2 an order.
MarketaFebruary 19, 2016You cannot go wrong with anything here. If you only had to choose one dish, go for the Signature Berry Bliss Pancakes.
MåÇie CåringtønNovember 26, 2014Everything was great I asked for yogurt and It was so much I didn't need much else. But the skillet with a side of pancakes was awesome
Abdulrahman Almunayes 🇰🇼November 7, 2019Open early morning at 6:30 am, welcoming environment, helpful staff & big pancakes portions here!
I could eat everything on the menu... If you are here for a splurge hit up the yummy crepes. However, leaning towards the healthy option, try the Wild Summer Berry Salad - Fresh ingrediants & delish!
hena hannSeptember 2, 2015i ate southern-style egg benedict. the quality of the poached egg was so good~! And hash brown was also crispy to enjoy.
Henry BowmanJuly 6, 2013I'm usually not a fan a skillets but for some reason I got it today. It was fantastic and their home made jam was to die for. Loved it, my daughters loved the chocolate chip pancakes.
