What a great find! Don't drive to fast because you will blink and miss it while you drive down Boulevard. A local realtor friend told me she had been here on a few occasions and loved it. She wasn't wrong. My friend and I visited on a Thursday morning. A wonderful greeting as we walked in. It's quaint, charming, and no frills. My friend ordered the lemon blueberry crumble pancakes and a side order of scrambled eggs. I ordered the French toast with berries, bananas and a side of sausage. Of course, coffee. As a coffee snob, I would say it was very good. Our orders came out hot and fresh with huge portions. The lemon pancakes were plate size and with plenty of tasty crumble. My French toast consisted of four thick slices covered in plenty of berries and bananas. My sausage was cooked fresh and not sitting on a griddle for two hours. The service was excellent and friendly. You will be impressed with the creativity of the menu items. The prices are reasonable considering the quality and portion size. There is ample parking in their private parking lot. It was my first time there and I'll be back soon enough! read more

A pleasant breakfast where I had waffles and chicken while my husband had a chorizo wrap. Both were good, especially the wrap filled also with guacamole, cotija cheese, some pico de gallo and sour cream. I finished half of the burrito even though it wasn't mine. Waffles were presented so beautifully. This was definitely shareable; loaded with fresh fruit, slices of bananas, strawberries and blueberries. Fried chickens were ok. Jamming 80's on their playlist that I found myself lip syncing to. read more

Delicious food and interesting menu. Don't be in a hurry because everything is made to order. Friendly, youthful service. Large portions of wonderful creations. Last time I was there I had the Caprese Tomato Omelet with Basil Crumbles. I don't know how they made the basil crumble, but I was licking my fingers. Served with yummy oven roasted potatoes, sour bread toast and a little side of tomato/cucumber salad. A definite find. read more

Since everything is made to order, don't come if you are in a hurray. Small, intimate spot in a residential area of Kenilworth. The menu is unique and innovative. Last time I was there I ordered an egg white Caprese Omelet topped with Basil flavored crumbles. I thought I died and went to heaven. I never tasted anything so delicious. It is served with thick slices of real sour dough bread, Delicious potatoes and a tomato/cucumber salad. Very accommodating and attentive staff. Little place, giant good taste. read more

Stopped by for a quick brunch on a rainy day and it wasn't too busy. The place is small but charming with a fun menu of options for breakfast and lunch. I ended up getting the pork roll & egg sandwich (aka taylor ham) and it was very filling! read more

Outstanding! Turkey and bacon club either garlic mayo on Rye was beyond delicious. The turkey was so tender and tasty. Highly recommend.

Definitely a place to stop by , try and savory the delicious food/s! I LOVE the chicken and waffles from here - the waffles are so fluffy; and the chicken is so crispy but moist on the inside. YUM. To top it off - everyone is so nice ! Big portions, so definitely come ready to eat (in your stretchy pants). Absolutely delectable . read more

This sandwich was so delicious that my dad and I came by twice in one week! This was enough to share between two and the flavor is on point. The staff were super friendly and also gave some other recommendations for next time. Will be coming again soon! Location is very clean and has its own parking lot. read more

First time stepping in, thought it looked a little pricey. Got the Matty Ice wrap. It blew my mind. Crispy chicken cutlet, delicious special sauce, touch of bacon - legit one of the best wraps ive had in my life. Worth every penny. The banana bread and crumb cake were so stupidly good. Super moist and tasty. Service was super friendly, im guessing the owner rang us up. Seems like a great guy. Came back two more times for the wraps. This will be a regular spot for me for the foreseeable future! read more

Came here for breakfast to try it out and I will say the place is very clean. The food was decent and nothing special, but the service wasn't the greatest. I waited about 25 minutes just to be served one breakfast platter. I also noticed I wasn't the only one that waited a long time for their food as I saw other people asking where there orders were. All in all I give this place a 4 out of 10. read more

I think I found my GO-TO place for a yummy breakfast!!! This is a family-run place, great vibes and family oriented. You see families with kids having breakfast. I have to say the first time around I came here I had some eggs + turkey sausage + whole wheat toast (not great) probably my fault though. This time I followed my husband's advice and we both ordered the the bacon, egg & cheese roll and OH MY GOD! It was amazing! The coffee is also pretty good here. Will be coming back soon... read more

Delicious!!!!! I'm been meaning to come here since it opened cause I hear amazing things. But I can confirm it lives up to the hype. I don't feel like making my own lunch so I ordered the chatty Matty salad. Pretty sure I'll be ordering this twice a week now. Highly recommend. read more

I love this place. So mad theyre closed today. Ive been wanting their food since yesterday. But today's a holiday. They should be open 24/7 ;) Every..thing that ive ordered from their menu has been..deliiiiciousss. And the owner is a really respectful person too. You can tell they cook from the heart. read more

Attentive and quick service. Pancakes were on point, the potato's with cheddar cheese were very tasty

Service and food was fantastic! There was a mistake with my order, but they quickly rectified the issue and the food was delicious! Also they had one of my favorite movies on (Transformers 2) Would recommend! read more

Order spicy chicken sandwich and cutlet vodka sandwich. It was honestly the most west but dry sandwich i've ever had. The amount of sauce on the bread is actually insane and makes it impossible to eat without the chicken literally sliding off. The chicken itself was as dry as a desert. And keep in mind two sandwiches, side of fries, and two fountain drinks were $48 dollars... Wayy too overpriced for a mediocre meal. Fries were kinda good. The ranch was bomb. Cold cut sandwiches looked pretty good though- didn't have one. read more

Best place I've ever been to. Would rate 10 stars if could. Food tastes amazing. Great service too! Would go again and again and again 100%. (Ps get sweet and salty Taylor) read more

What a great find. After passing this place all the time we finally stopped in. I know why it received 5 stars on YELP. I have to agree. My boyfriend got 3 eggs sunnyside up with potatoes and toast with and a side of sausage. He actually didn't like the sausage but I did. He was expecting links and it was a pretty big slab. I had the chicken, Brie, and fig jam sandwich and was delighted about the formula of it all. Just enough of everything and the bread was charred perfectly. We will definitely be back. read more

Stopped in because it was one of the only non commercial places I saw on my route to work. I walked in and I was greeted with a welcoming smile and hello. The menu offers a lot of different breakfast and lunch options from omelets to cold sandwiches, soups and hot sandwiches. I ordered a BEC and it was $8.90 which is pretty steep, but it was very good. The inside is simple with tables to dine in but you can also order for takeout. They have a soda machine and a fridge with different juice options including chocolate milk and water. Overall the staff was very nice and my sandwich was tasty ! read more

Casual spot. Order at the counter and seat yourself vibe. Employees are helpful and kind. I was blown away at how fresh the food was. I have high standards when it comes to eating out and this place surprised me. Definitely worth a try. read more

Excellent food and service!! Chat & Griddle is an adorable spot for breakfast and lunch. My husband was able to order a meatball sub because the lunch menu is available all day, which we always appreciate. The steak bowl was excellent- high quality steak, perfectly fried eggs, and a delicious chimichurri sauce. I'd highly recommend this place if you're in the area! read more

I really don't understand the hype and the 4.9 stars..... I was expecting some amazing flavorful French toast. Hell, I make better French toast at home as an amateur. It literally tastes like thick, soggy cooked bread. There's no flavors of cinnamon, vanilla, nut meg or anything. The ONLY flavor is from the syrup. You're better off eating a slice of dry toast and dipping it in syrup. The portion size for the price is way off. I'm so disappointed and feel like I wasted money. read more

The chef of this place has a record of creating magic on the plate. Everywhere he's been and everywhere he goes. This is not fast food and it's not a diner. Everything you eat is made to your order. So yes it takes a little longer than a diner or Wendy's for those of you complaining. There are literally no airs about this place so it's helpful if you don't bring yours to the mix. What's over the top extraordinary is the food. It's the best food (breakfast or lunch) I've ever eaten. Cheaper than any diner but 50x better. I hesitate to submit this review bc I want to keep it a secret. But there I did it. read more

Delicious food, no complaints! If you're in town, don't miss this spot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have been here a number of times with no issues, however the last two times my wife's scrambled eggs came out cold and we requested dry toast which came out with butter. In addition prices are to high for the service and type of place read more

The food is delicious and high quality. They make a great turkey sandwich and yummy coleslaw. The chocolate chip cookies are my family's favorite. Love the decor and color. Also, they do great catered food for parties and events. read more

We were in the area and wanted a quick bite for breakfast. Chat &Griddle popped up after a quick google search and we're so glad it did. I ordered the breakfast burrito and it was honestly probably the best breakfast burrito I've ever had. I'm still dreaming about it and can't wait to return to have it again!! My partner had the breakfast platter and opted for pork sausage. I'm not a sausage person but holy cow this was the best sausage patty ever. It was nice and thick and had such good flavor. It definitely didn't taste like the average frozen sausage patties. His parents both ordered breakfast sandwiches and enjoyed it. Inside is small and cute. Service was very good as well. The young men behind the counter were pleasant! Can't wait to come back and try more dishes!! read more

Love the food here. It's always incredibly fresh and deliciously made. It's a cozy joint that has consistently great service and food. I always order the steak bowl (bottom left in the photo), and I absolutely love it, but you seriously can't go wrong with any of their menu items. Portions are large so come hungry or be prepared to take some home! read more
