This was my favorite brunch place when I lived in Chicago. Yes, the wait is usually long on weekend mornings. But you are welcome to grab a coffee at the bar or even put your name on the list and stroll over to Grant Park or the waterfront (at the Roosevelt location) or browse the local shops (at the Wicker...

Had to wait forty five minutes for a table, no where to wait except on the pavement ,and after that the food was not memorable, no refills of coffee offered, huge portions, comparitively pricey. Go to Yolk instead!!

This is my absolute favorite brunch spot of all time! When I lived in the city I would go every weekend, I am in burbs now and still travel there often just for the food.

Was treated to breakfast at the Bongo Room. Good drinks, food was very flavorful and served at the right temperature. Lively atmosphere. Fun way to kick off the day!

There were several sweet items that looked interesting, including Key Lime cheesecake and banana-Heath bar pancakes. The service was great and our server was very helpful. She suggested ordering a half order of... More

We ate twice here at the Wicker Park location during our stay in Chicago. There was a half hour wait on the weekend but that is to be expected for a place as popular as this. The food was amazing and portions are huge. I would recommend ordering single pancakes instead of the full order so you can try different... More
