Cafe On The Grove - Manager on his phone while waiting - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Rolling Meadows, Illinois

Went for a Sunday breakfast. The food was a little pricy and solidly a tick below average. My sunny side eggs were undercooked, the bacon and hash browns were not crispy, the blueberry lemon pancakes were congealed and hard. The chicken soup (not pictured) had a weird flavor of tacos? The cottage cheese bowl was good, and the cottage cheese was very flavorful. They had good quality tea and decent coffee. Service was friendly but slow. The restaurant has a weird layout but a lot of effort was put into the decor. I wouldn't necessarily go back. The quest for an amazing breakfast in the NW suburbs continues... because this isn't it. read more

Cafe on the Grove is in a small strip mall in a location where there have been several restaurants. This one has to be the best of them. They are open for breakfast/brunch and lunch. Two of our party split a Farmer's Omelet, one got a skillet, and I was the oddball getting a turkey club for lunch. :) The club was great, and they were attentive to food allergies in preparing it. I got my club sandwich with fries - they were hand cut and crisp. Everyone else raved about their food. The food was fresh, tasty, the portions were a nice size, and the service... The service was truly great. Actually, we learned that some of the wait staff (including ours) work at the Capital Grille in Schaumburg during the week, so no wonder the service was so good. With good food and great service, I do recommend Cafe on the Grove. read more

Have been twice and had great experiences. Friendly, enthusiastic, and fast moving staff In a very busy restaurant. Did not rush us out on a crowded holiday. Comfortable seating in a bright cafe. One of the best salmon benedicts I have eaten. (Usually the salmon is too cold so the eggs aren't right.) Good grapefruit juice used in the mimosa. A gem of a spot. Wish it was closer to me so I could visit more often. read more

Stopped here for a quick drink and snack in between my daughter's climbing event nearby . I love the seating in this cafe. Huge comfy booths ! The waiter was really outgoing and talked about his favorite menu items. I love friendly waiters! Bloody Mary was great and had a grilled cheese, crispy bacon , salami, cheese, celery, pickle, olive and seasoned rim. Food was good too and I appreciated that they let me customize my hashbrowns with onions, peppers, jalapeños, and cheese read more

Café on the Grove was a great find on Yelp. I was looking for a casual place for sandwiches and I found just that. This café is very inviting yet modern looking. I started with the hot chocolate, which was watery and not very good. I ordered the strawberry fields salad and broccoli cheddar soup. The soup was thick and full of flavor. The salad was crisp and had lots of healthy ingredients. My mother had the strawberry fields salad and homemade chicken noodle soup. This soup was piled high with chicken. The food here was very good. I'll be back to try more. Our sever was very nice and enthusiastic. read more

What a cute, modern clean and attractive little breakfast/brunch spot in Rolling Meadows. Totally want expecting this chic, hip little gem of a restaurant! I had the Southwest Grilled Chicken Salad. Super fresh, a nice piece of grilled chicken breast, the perfect portion not smothered in dressing. My husband had the pulled pork sandwich with homemade fries. Delicious! It was gone in a few bites. This will definitely be one of our new favorite spots! read more

I called the morning I needed a table for 7. No problem! They had a table set up before we arrived. The service was very good, and so was the food. I had a breakfast burrito that was great and I took home half for later. Everyone else enjoyed their food. What put a smile on my face all the way home was the coffee. I like a bold, strong cup of coffee in the morning, and this coffee was just right for me. It wasn't too bold, or too strong (no burnt taste like I get with Starbucks sometimes), but just right. I would go here for a cup of coffee often if I lived nearer. Try this place out if you are a coffee or food lover! read more

This is a completely remodeled, super pleasant breakfast and lunch restaurant that is fabulous! It's in the shell of the old "Gus's Diner" which had been here for a long time beforehand. The menu is imaginative and they'll customize anything you want. Great, attentive service! We love it! I got the tuna avocado toast and my wife built her own omelet. read more

Yes the food is great, and we have recommended this place to friends when it first opened, but due to one horrible experience which me and my husband walk in , ordered and waited for almost an HOUR for food, seeing people that came before us getting served while here we are drinking our drinks feeling like the odd people. they did apologize for the issue but sadly the same happened to a few of the friends we recommended this restaurant to. i do suggest to train your staff better, as of now those gift cards we received as an apology will sit in my counter collecting dust. read more

Just tried this place three minutes from where we live and we were not disappointed at all. I made my own skillet and it was incredible made exactly the way I ordered it. My husband got biscuits and gravy and he said they were the best he's ever had. They have fresh squeezed orange juice. The coffee is excellent. And if you're into that sort of thing, their bathroom fixtures are great. I highly recommend. read more

Great redo of a local option-upscaled the menu with top notch choices and the seating/decor which used to be early American bachelor. The staff was friendly and attentive. A little in the pricey side for breakfast but large portions so, leftovers! We'll be back. read more

My husband and I were looking for a new breakfast place near our home in Palatine. We wanted to find a place that was not a chain to support our local businesses. I found Cafe on the Grove on line and we decided to try. It.. The service was excellent that the food was very fresh. Very good portions. If you live locally, try the Cafe on the Grove. It is a family owned business owned by the mother and daughter... They are open for breakfast and lunch only.... We will be going back there soon..... read more

My special crepes were cold the cheese wasn't melted the eggs tasted weird. Feel like could have gotten more on my plate for the price.

This in in the location that Gus's Diner used to be in... completely different. The current decor looks more intimate dinner for two that breakfasty if that's a word and if you know what I mean... it's really nice (pics below) I had the Southern Benedict which, I'm assuming is further south than I would call southern, had chorizo and avocado, the eggs were perfectly poached, it was great. My wife ordered her eggs over hard, but they were a little runny, still. The server Frank comped our coffees. So when we got the bill we were very pleased. Also! Folks, there is finally a decent Bloody Mary in Rolling Meadows! Medium spicy was just right, a little spicy, a little boozy, just right... I'll go again, I'll recommend it to friends. Oh, and he server Frank? I hope that's right... Frank was fantastic. read more

Everyone and everything is always a top notch being very clean is an added bonus!! Outdoor seating is also available

I cannot even begin to explain my love for this place. To start, the employees (especially the waiters) are some of the KINDEST people you will ever meet. The waiters always treat us like friends and are so outgoing, polite, and beyond kind. The food is always amazing, always delicious. I personally love the cinnamon roll pancakes. Even if the food wasn't good, I would give this place a five stars for their waiters alone. They have the best staff out of all the restaurants I've ever been to. I highly recommend this place, there's no brunch place that is better and I truly believe that. read more

Great addition to the neighborhood! I have been here twice, both service and food have been outstanding! We were quickly greeted with a welcoming smile both times. The inside is cozy but they also have a few outdoor tables that are in the shade. Highly recommend! read more

The food and service were great. I also thought the pricing and portions were fair. A good breakfast option if you're in the area. There's outdoor seating which could be great for the summer. Not much to look at other than a parking lot, but could be nice to sit outside when there's good weather! read more

The food I would give 4 stars. Cinnamon roll pancakes are delicious. I have been here twice now and have ordered 2 kids meals both times and on the menu it says it comes with a drink but they charged for an extra soda both times. My son just drinks water bec that is what he likes. My daughter gets a soda. My husband might get a juice and I get water. Both times my husband paid online before I scanned and reviewed the bill on fetch and this time I told the manager who was in the front that maybe it's a system issue bec the first time, fine maybe it's a fluke but a second time seems like it's not a fluke. He of course didn't seem to care he was busy on the phone watching a show something and I was interrupting him. The server came and apologized and said he didn't know and he was very nice. I keep getting the next time you come which I am not sure what that means and am I to complain the second I come in about my previous experience. Seems weird and I told him that.. I have both receipts from my visits from 7/21 at 1:40 table 51 and 10/5/24 at11:43 table 53. The servers were nice both times and maybe it's a training issue and that's on management.. The food, service and ambiance is good. read more
