    Bacon & Egg Sandwich
    Annie K.

    I've come to this restaurant 3 Sundays in a row. The first 2 visits were nice ~ the food was delicious and the service was good. Unfortunately today too many things were amiss, but most of all the service. The host was rude overall, but unfortunately this was eclipsed by the insolence of our server, who made comments during our very first interaction which were shockingly rude and uncalled for. In fact, I don't think I've ever been spoken to so rudely at a in my life. From reading other reviews, it seems this is the norm for this particular server. To their credit, it appeared that the restaurant was understaffed in terms of servers. However, it's unacceptable to speak to customers that way. Finally, there was an issue with the food. I ordered a beef pot pie with potatoes on the side. The potatoes came very quickly, and were delicious. Unfortunately the rest of my food and my dining partners' food did not arrive until at least 10 minutes later. I can understand that mixups happen, but I was annoyed because I could see that the rest of our dishes were sitting under the heating lamp but no one delivered them to our table for about 10 minutes. In the meantime, 2 tables near us who had arrived significantly after us, had already received all of their food and started eating. When I received my beef and gravy pie, it was dried out (having ordered this the past 2 visits, I knew it wasn't right). Based on this recent experience, I don't think I'd return.

    Came in on a Sunday brunch. Not overcrowded and pleasant music inside. Service was good. Food was okay, but the Full Australian is probably best suited towards meat lovers :-). Coffee was the best! Pro tip: For parking use the valet at the Franciscan around the corner for $19 for 4 hours

    Great for any meal breakfast, lunch or dinner modern American fare with full bar and large selection of spirits and beers. Super friendly service and nice breakfast menu. Attached to Hilton hotel. Great for coffee and a pastry too! Or happy hour!

    I have come here to try the cafe twice and it's not my vibe. With the prices they have, you would assume that the coffee or options would be a little bit better. I need to come back and try the food here to give it a higher rating but the quality and prices of the drinks were not a fit for my taste.

    The food was pretty good; the service not so much. Ordering a cocktail, we asked the server to make sure there was ony one ice cube; it came filled with ice. Service was slow despite it not being very full. We told her several times we had tickets to a 7 p.m. show. It still took about 30 minutes for dinner to arrive and wehad to rush through the meal. The food was fin, the service not so much.

    Finally made it to Chapel Street, the Australian-style café I've been meaning to check out for a while, mostly because Australian food isn't something you see every day. I stopped in during a workday lunch while doing some Christmas shopping, and it was pretty empty, which made it easy to grab a seat at the bar. The bartender was super chill and took the time to walk me through the menu and explain the special. I ended up going with the Australian-style Chicken Parm, which came with a free beer. For under $30 total after tip, felt like an awesome deal. The Chicken Parm portion was huge and really good, and it came with fries and a side salad. Everything hit--fries were great, beer was great, salad was solid, and the service was excellent. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely come back, especially for more of a dinner sit-down vibe rather than just a solo lunch at the bar. Definitely worth checking out if you're curious about Chapel Street.

    Scramble on Toast
    Ria P.

    Loved the food, hated the service. Scrambled eggs on sourdough toast was perfect and I liked the breakfast potatoes. I also got their seasonal cardamom nut latte and they definitely have the ability to just do a cardamom latte without all the berries and nut flavorings, but they said they couldn't. The waiter also told me that the berry dust on top was just dust with no flavor when I asked to not have it on my latte and I said okay sure, but it had such a strong berry taste. Anyways my guy was just not having it. Also, for some reason we got our food after a bit and no coffees or drinks until we asked after we had gotten our food and then they made our drinks. tldr: service is a 1/5, food and drinks are a 4.5/5

    Mocha

    This is probably my favorite restaurant of 2025 of new places I've tried and it's almost the end of the year which is crazy!!!! Phenomenal food! TENS ACROSS THE BOARD! Staff was friendly! I had an amazing recommendation from (Tracy) I believe was his name not sure if I spelled it right. However the smash burger he recommended was indeed the best burger I've ever had! I also tried a mocha because they roast their coffee on goose island which is right in Chicago! Very delicious and unique, it was a perfect cup of coffee. Not too heavy which I like! When I come back I look forward to the friendly staff and more dishes to try as well as the coffee! Atmosphere was also very peaceful and cozy! Beautiful restaurant and amazing food!

    Chapel Street is a charming, quaint restaurant connected to the Hilton Magnificent Mile Suites. I stopped in for a latte and a pastry and had a very nice experience. My Overall Rating - 3 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food) Atmosphere - Chapel Street is warm and welcoming. It's connected to the Hilton's bar, but it functions as its own restaurant. There are tables and bench seating, and it has modern décor. My Chapel Street's main attraction is the open kitchen. You can watch the expert team whip up your breakfast while you wait. 1 Star. Service - In my early Monday morning visit, Chapel Street hand a single server for a handful of customers, but there were no delays at all. Service was great and I had no issues. Heads up - they automatically add a 20% service charge to your bill. I think this is the "hotel tax". Good thing the service was great. 1 Star. Food - Full disclosure - I paid Chapel Street a visit for coffee because the coffee in my hotel room was NOT good. Good thing the latte I ordered was good. It was nice a smooth and even had some nice latte art. I paired it with a Kouign-Amann. The pastries are not made in house, because it was a bit cold (like it came from a fridge). However, it was delicious, flaky, and had the signature caramel flavor that paired perfectly with my latte. There's much more on the menu but for me, it was coffee and a pastry. 1 Star. Will I Return? - Probably not. I came here searching for good coffee in my hotel, while my visit was positive, it's only a one-time thing. I'm sure I can find similar or better options within a few blocks. No Star.

    Chapel Street Cafe is conveniently located near my school, so I decided to finally check them out. They weren't very busy when I came on a Thursday afternoon, and the wait staff was very friendly. Unfortunately, their barista was not in, so I was not able to order any of their special seasonal drinks. I ordered a matcha latte and croissant. The cost was fairly standard (still overpriced but who isn't these days?), but the quality was pretty bad. The matcha just tasted like milk, and the croissant was incredibly dry. I ended up tossing out both after only a few sips / bites. The one plus is that I quite liked the ambiance. There was a lot of seating, and it seemed like it could be a good environment for studying. However, they're also a mix of waiter service and quick service, so it could be looked down upon--I'll have to assess if I choose to come back.

    Flat White
    David C.

    Got a flat white and meat pie. On paper it's an average drink and bite but in practice it was great! Flat white was so smooth and flavorful. Prob the best flat white I've had in Chicago. The meat pie was really good too but just wish I got some ketchup for the full Aussie experience! Crust was flaky, filing has generous portions of meat, and it was filling! Want to come back again.

    Cosmo Martini

    Nice restaurant/bar near water tower. We came on a Friday evening to enjoy happy hour before dinner reservation at a nearby steakhouse. We wanted to try this happy hour out as it is on one of our apps that we like to use that offer 20% back when you use the app On this occasion, the bar wasn't it too crowded, but we were able to get a seat right at the bar and that was enjoyable. They had nice music playing the TV was really clear and not to overlord in general for the whole establishment. For happy hour, we got popcorn chicken, which was really good. We also tried the spinach artichoke dip. The dip it itself was OK, but it didn't seem like it was thoroughly warm in the middle, but the chips were really good and the flavor was basic. For drinks we did try a couple of different drinks. I'm mostly stuck to the happy hour red wine on this occasion it was an Australian red wine. My husband tried a couple different cocktails. He started with the hot and toddy which is not on the happy hour, but he enjoyed it as it warmed him up. Then he moved over to the espresso martinis that were on the happy hour, and those were very tasty. I will say that they make the espresso fresh right in front of you which makes for a really good espresso martini. I also tried the Cosmo and there wasn't anything too special about that, but it was well balanced, and I did like the tangy flavors that you got from the lemon. Overall, a solid happy hour venue if in the area we would entertain coming here again. Because it's an Australian restaurant they had some really interesting things on their dinner dining menu. To include kangaroo burgers. So that's something to look out for I will also note that they had a pretty good bakery pastry section, so it will be interesting to see what other people thought of actually dining in the restaurant.

    Chapel Street Café & Restaurant, located inside the Hilton Hotel Chicago Magnificent Mile on Delaware Street, is an absolute gem. The space offers both indoor and outdoor seating, and each option provides a delightful experience--charming, relaxed, and welcoming. The service was wonderful. Our server, Nelson, took excellent care of us, and the rest of the team was equally attentive and friendly. They made sure our evening was seamless and truly enjoyable. The food was outstanding. My husband ordered his favorite--Bolognese spaghetti--and was beyond happy with it. I chose the truffle mushroom risotto, which was rich, flavorful, and generously portioned (so much so that I was able to share some with him, much to his delight). To top it off, I enjoyed a pot of Jasmine tea that tasted like flowers--absolutely perfect for me. Chapel Street offers something for everyone, whether you're stopping in for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Their schedule makes it easy: * Breakfast: 7:00 AM - 1:30 PM * Lunch: 10:00 AM - 11:30 PM * Dinner: 5:00 PM - 8:30 PM * Happy Hour: 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM * Bar: open until 11:00 PM This spot is a wonderful choice for a casual meal, a date night, or simply enjoying a well-made dish in a lovely atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

    Discovered this little gem after I couldn't eat any more Chicago pizzas, hot dog or beef…read moresandwiches. The place was packed on Tuesday night so make sure to book a reservation. I ordered the item charcuterie and chose coppa, prosciutto, and a French Brie. The meat and cheese were good as expected but that quince spread really took the dish over the top! It was the perfect complement to the fatty meats. Next was the Mushroom dish and while the mushroom purer wasn't a looker, it was a huge umami bomb! Really good pairing with the other mushrooms on the plate. Lastly, I got the milk braised shoulder and it was so tender and flavorful. Good size portion, too! Took leftovers and made a breakfast sandwich the next day and it was still good! I regret not ordering the beef marrow, the table next to me did and I had food envy the whole time but honestly, I had no more room, I was so stuffed! Drinks and service was great, too! Highly recommend you go here if you are in downtown Chicago.

    The first bite in Chicago... and what a delicious welcome!…read more My culinary adventure began at The Purple Pig, a Mediterranean spot in the heart of Chicago's Magnificent Mile. A James Beard Award-winning restaurant and Michelin Bib Gourmand honoree. The star of the meal? The divinely delicious Spanish Octopus. Cooked to perfection, so meaty and tender. And paired with marbled potatoes, sambuca, chimichurri, and Spanish chorizo. Every bite was beautifully balanced and flavorful. This octopus dish will be remembered. Service at the bar was attentive. And the restaurant was nice.
