    Mexican Omelette
    Greg P.

    Chipy is located in a mall wirh easy parking. I came here randomly for lunch one day. Glad I did as it was a good experience. Walking in, the space was really small but cozy. I don't think it's suitable for large parties but it was not loud. Service was really quick and friendly. And food came out really quickly as well making this a great spot to come for lunch if you're on a time crunch. I got the mexican omlette which had a slight apice kick to it and the chorizo gave it good flavor. Eggs were nicely cooked, not runny and pancakes were super fluffy and tasty. Highly recommend.

    The food was super good! The waiter here is always so nice and very quick with the service! I would 100% recommend! The soup with a bread bowl is my favorite!

    I didn't know you needed to make a breakfast reservation for Father's Day. I wrongfully assumed that all the dads would be on the golf course, or the pickle ball court, during breakfast. All of our breakfast standbys seemed to be full, and we just happened upon Chipy Cafe. It's a small restaurant, so we sat outside, and the weather was hot, sunny and perfect. I ordered the Italian Bread Bowl and I loved it. It was a hollowed out bread, filled with tomatoes, spinach, onions, mozzarella, with over easy eggs on top. They grilled the bread, and they sliced off the top and grilled that too. I thought it was excellent (I usually don't eat too much bread). My companions liked their breakfasts ok, but I loved mine. I'll go back again!

    Very nice counter with menu to order.

    Nice spot for brunch. It is surrounded by many office building therefore I think it's popular amongst locals. The vibe is like a small cozy everyday coffee go to place. We had pancakes, egg on the traditional bread. The owner seems like a nice and friendly person. Staff members were good as well. Food was nice.

    BLT
    Breanna R.

    I was craving a BLT and this place did not disappoint. I also had the split pea soup which was a very large serving and it was the best Ive had. Split pea can be tough to get just right but this place did it. If I were a local this would be on my go-to!

    Chipy Cafe is a nice little restaurant that serves breakfast and lunch meals. They have a nice menu with generally reasonably priced items. Located in the City Park shopping plaza in Lincolnshire, Chipy Cafe is a good, no-frills, no-gimmick place to go for brunch, which is what I went for. It's like mom & pop type establishment, which I believe is run by a husband-wife duo. When we got here, we were promptly seated and provided with the menus. The restaurant was semi-busy between patrons dining in and those doing carry-out. We were asked if we're ready to order promptly as well. I ordered the kids two-by-two from the kids' menu, which had two eggs done your way and either two bacon strips and two sausage links (no pancakes) for $7.25 which I thought was a bit high in price for a Kids dish by the virtue of not having pancakes included. I also ordered hot chocolate and a Mexican omlete with hash browns and regular buttermilk pancakes. My omlete had chorizo, onions, jalapeños, cilantro, and Monterey Jack cheese. The food was good. My kid and I enjoyed our meal. The service was nice and prompt. The menu pricing is pretty reasonable. The restaurant got more busy after we got there which is good. I recommend checking out Chipy's was delicious breakfast/ lunch food options.

    Breakfast menu

    Chipy Cafe is the cutest little place to relax and have a nice comforting meal. Quiet, super clean, and excellent service by the owner Michael and his staff. My friend and I were tired of most of the other places in the area and decided to give this place a try. So glad we did. It's a unique hidden gem of a place as it only has around 12 tables. It's relaxing, quiet and casual. It's nicely decorated and the menu has a good variety of items in every category even for the pickiest eaters or people on diets. All the food was made to order, super fresh and delicious. My quesadillas was piping hot and generously filled accompanied by a large container of pico de gallo sauce and fresh cut fruit in place of fries! Everyone else's food look scrumptious too! We both agreed this is going to be our new "go to" meetup spot! We both loved this place. Prices are decent and quality is king here!

    Steak and Eggs - requested rare, but was cooked well-done and very tough.
    Amy A.

    We ordered Chipy for breakfast a few more times since my last review. Each time there seems to be something wrong with my order, but it's been much more consistent than previously. For example, my Benedict has the spinach and tomato as promised, BUT they forgot to include my side item altogether (and no it was not included separately in another container - just not included at all). Also, their avocado toast is super yummy and under $10 (at the time of writing this review). Chipy is delicious, but you need to double check your orders. Hoping my next order will be a 5 star.

    California omelet
    Jennifer H.

    I think the omelet was as big as my head :D Seriously, the 4-egg California omelet took over about half my plate and was oh so delicious. I chose fruit rather than potatoes and whole wheat bread. I only made it through about half of my late breakfast. I just happened to be in the area and was craving a healthy (and late in the morning) place and just happened to find Chipy Cafe. It's a small spot with a splattering of tables. But definitely worth it! And I see they also do a good amount of take-out so you can always order and go.

    5 stars for the mushroom soup! Cute place with only 10 small tables..mostly dueces. My husband had a chopped salad with blue cheese dressing. There was a puddle of water in the bottom of the salad bowl. Like...drain the water before you serve a salad!? I had one of the worst reuben sandwiches ever! Sooo disappointed. The meat was like that Buddig crap. Not much cheese.. and no horseradish?? Who serves corned beef without horseradish?? fries were cooked in old oil... If in the neighborhood again, we would go somewhere else...

The only little hiccup is that the service can get a bit hectic. The staff seemed a little confused trying to match up the order numbers to the tables, and we almost got run over on our way out by a waiter sprinting to the patio! But even with the fast-paced environment, the food is wonderful whether you eat in or grab takeout. Definitely worth a visit! A much better experience here than MY 1st time. I think it's because they enlarged the dining area with more table space. It's still hard to have a conversation due to the high ceilings which echo the sound.

The coffee was outstanding and easily her favorite part of the meal, but unfortunately, the Eggs Benedict didn't quite live up to our expectations. In hindsight, we probably should have ordered what Wildberry is best known for--the pancakes or waffles. Seeing so many of them coming out of the kitchen made us think we may have missed out on the restaurant's true specialties. One thing that absolutely stood out was the service. Everyone we encountered was friendly, welcoming, and attentive, making for a very pleasant dining experience. While our breakfast was a little underwhelming overall, I'd definitely be willing to give Wildberry another try on our next trip to Chicago. Next time, we'll skip the traditional breakfast plates and go straight for the pancakes or waffles that made this place famous.
