PureWow: bread pudding pancakes . These suckers are made of bread pudding (wrap your head around that) and topped with cinnamon-sugar butter. (Mama’s tip: The wee ones tend to love them, too.)

The chorizo and eggs is amazing! Brisket and Gravy (pic) is good comfort food but the biscuits are pretty tough. Split a grown up pop tart too start.. You won't be disappointed :)

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.

Obviously, they are more known for breakfast , but the patty melt is on point.

Joe Dodson

The Hash has been threw a couple changes since I first came here in 2010 & I have to say the version I had today blew me away. Best breakfast I have had in a while.

Hamid Alan9ary

Great breakfast location or even if you want to stop by for desert and coffee . I would like to stop by again to try the pancakes

Serious Eats

Grilled Brie Sandwich at Southport Grocery is rightfully called "a grown up version of a grilled cheese " with a layer of gooey brie , fresh spinach and a delicious mess of sauteed mushrooms .

Jenna Kowalczyk

Here's what you do. Order one single bread pudding pancake to share & then order anything else you want. But you should know the Bruschetta was amazing.

The pimento cheese , sausage and onion omelette at Southport Grocery is one of the 100 best things we ate this year. http://tmout.us/rLOtk Read more

Amanda Cooper

What a great find! I started off with the hummus , apple salad , and ended with a single cupcake pancake . I absolutely loved everything. Seating is limited, weekends you will definitely have to wait.

Tasting Table

'Kraut fans, take note: This market and cafe has recently started making sauerkraut in house, and it's stellar. Take a jar of the "Living Kraut " home, or try it on a Reuben with house-made pastrami . Read more

The chicken and grits is one of my favorite breakfasts anywhere in Chicago.

Shannon B.

The Brisket and Gravy is a fun twist on the classic!

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

Breakfast sandwich , coffee , and stuffed French Toast . On a 10 degree day albeit a sunny one there was a half hour wait. Worth doing just plan ahead.

Time Out Chicago Kids

The breakfast menu will please fans of cream cheese ; the gooey stuff makes appearances in a pair of new omelettes , including one packed with spinach , jalapenos , artichokes , tomatoes and cream cheese . Read more

One of my favorite brunch places in Chicago, definitely worth the wait… Put your name down and go shopping around…

Brian MacQueen

One of the best brunch spots in the city . It does get crowded , so be prepared to wait. And hope they've got tater tots on the menu. Try them with an omelet .

Omg. You must must must try the cupcake pancakes ! Be sure to hit the bakery case before you leave and snag a pretzel cookie and a peanut m&m peanut butter cookie as well . So damn good. :-)

Mager Mager

Insanely good bakery . Get the portobello grilled cheese and the vegan blueberry corn muffin .

Ron Rowland

Possibly my favorite breakfast place in the city . I may be in the "Savory French Toast " rut. But it's a very tasty rut to be in.

Mark Schwartzman

One of our favorite brunch places in Chicago. Start off brunch right with either the coffee cake or grown-up pop tart . Yes!

Rémy Thenot-Siegel

Breakfas/brunch is great. The staff is courteous and the food is worth the likely wait you will face on the weekend. As someone else said, the bread pudding pancakes are ridiculously good. Just try!
