Soup Cup TO-GO chicken wild rice
Katrina M.

Honestly really good and homey diner brunch food!! I got it delivered to me because it's just one of those Sundays and it really hit the spot for me. I got the corned beef hash which came with an option to get a side of one of their fancy pancakes! The hash was great and great portion size too! I got the lemon berry capone pancakes and I wasn't expecting a stack! So delicious too. Lastly, I got the soup of the day which was chicken wild rice soup. It was pretty standard but no complaints here and the bread it came with was nice and fluffy. I'd totally get brunch from here again!

Belgium Waffle Combo
Eugene B.

My dish (Belgium waffle combo + coffee) was standard and nothing outstanding. I sat at the bar and was intrigued by how synchronized the staff was. A server holding a tray of four full plates over her shoulder while holding a fifth plate with her right hand and maneuvering through the tight space between the front counter (where I ate) and the window to the kitchen. 5 professionals in the kitchen working to fill order-ins, take outs, and door dash. Another server makes sure everyone has a full cup of coffee. All 13-20 employees are constantly moving to keep the diner machine humming. The customers had a local community vibe. Old and young. It's a cornerstone gem that sits at the corner of Clark and Devon.

On a blisteringly cold morning in Edgewater, we hurried to Cozy Corner for some warmth and it arrived in a steaming mug of black coffee. Shortly after, I got my standard by which to measure any diner: two eggs over easy, three slices of bacon, hash browns and toast. The eggs were perfectly runny (with hot sauce on the table, always a plus), the bacon was crisp and salty, the toast was crunchy and soft at the same time. And the hash browns were a mix of browned and unbrowned. Just the way I like it. I worked my way through the standard American diner fare and as soon as my cup was empty, it was refilled by our server Maria V, who knew exactly what I needed before I asked. I always love a good diner, and Cozy Corner in Edgewater is a good diner for sure. If you haven't been here yet, give it a try!

Vegetable Omelette Florentine & Feta Cheese Benedict
Adria H.

This is a definitely our go to, really a regular tradition now, for me and my partner. The staff is so awesome and greets us warmly every time. The food is consistently delicious. They have an abundance of booth seating which we love! I think I've avoided writing a review cuz I don't want our spot to get too crowded if the secret gets out more than it already is!! There's a steady flow of customers which is always a sign of a good restaurant! And I love that the staff is happy! Super important! Definitely recommend this place!

Eggs Benedict

Food and service were fantastic! Great greasy spoon spot. First place I've found in Chicago where the grits are done right. Jami was great!

Had the Mexican Omelette. Portions were big and taste was excellent . Service was very good.

Classic Eggs Benedict with Hashbrowns and Fruit

Cozy Corner is always a super solid breakfast / brunch place, no matter which branch. I'll review Edgewater specifically, since I go regularly - probably ever other Sunday! - because it's always such a treat. The ambiance is always bright and cozy, the diner-style tables, booths, and bar are comfy, and the servers are absolutely lovely, efficient, and welcoming. Cozy Corner is always pretty solidly busy especially on weekends, but wait times are generally less than 15 minutes (in my experience). Limited parking lot available next to restaurant, but I believe parking is also available across the street at Devon Hardware. Food is always delicious and quick, and great portions - you really get a great value. This location serves 2 brunch cocktails as well - impressive Bloody Mary (according to my beau) and I can vouch for the delicious (and strong!) Mimosas (the freshly squeezed orange juice is phenomenal on its own, as well). For fun - If you use the "Too Good to Go" app that combats food waste, you can purchase a surprise bag of leftovers from Cozy Corner for $5.99 for pick up in the afternoon. They are quite popular and sell out quickly the night before! Did it once and got loads of delicious Macaroni and Cheese, Hash Browns (my weakness), and a large container of soup. Very fun! And I love that they help combat food waste this way. Breakfast or Lunch, this is an affordable go-to and neighborhood staple. Highly recommend.

I had a booooomb breakfast at cozy corner. Ok admittedly I just got the classics: scrambled eggs, bacon, and chocolate chip pancakes. But everything tasted so FRESH. The bacon I swear had to have been just cooked, it was hot and crispy and soooo good. The eggs were fluffy and delicious. The chocolate chip pancakes were plentiful! Everything was awesome. The prices were pretty steep but it was worth it! I feel like I pay similar (maybe slightly less) for the same breakfast at other spots but the food isn't nearly as fresh, tasty, or as large of portions. Highly recommend cozy corner for a casual breakfast spot! Oh - and they have flavored creamers for coffee. My fave!

Turkey Sausage Patties
Gladys C.

Ordered out here for some shrimp and grits. They have Cajun shrimp and grits on the menu. I order the grits and shrimp with a side of turkey sausage patties. The grits were good. The grits come with shrimp, bits of real bacon, bits of sliced green onion and cheese. The portion is enough for 3 people to eat off. The turkey sausage is tasty and not overcooked. The shrimp were nicely cooked the way shrimp should be cooked. The way the grits are prepared makes them Cajun but this is not grits and shrimp cooked with Louisiana red sauce. I enjoyed this meal! If you are hungry for cheesy grits with Cajun shrimp and bacon this is your place for sure! I recommend.

The Original Pancake House has a menu to rival IHOP when it comes to pancake and crepe selection. So much to choose from! When we arrived around 8:15am, there were plenty of tables inside and outside on their tree covered patio, and the staff let us know we could sit anywhere we liked. We chose a table inside but the outside area is beautiful if you want to enjoy the Chicago summer. Our server arrived quickly and was very friendly. The kitchen was so fast it felt like she took our order, walked back to the kitchen, and returned with our meals. Their standard egg breakfasts come with a stack of pancakes - you can pay a little more to upgrade to one of the fun flavors, so we chose blueberry. The portions were so massive I ended up ordering two side dishes for my breakfast, and I still couldn't finish it all. The blueberry pancakes were filled with fresh blueberries and SO good, the egg scramble with feta was delicious, and the home fries were pretty good. Our server asked if I wanted them crispy. I said no, but I should have said yes. They were a little soft - still delicious - but you can tell they'd be even better with a bit of a crispy edge. The prices may seem a little high, but when you see how much food you get for the price, you'll realize what a deal it is. Each meal could easily feed two people! We were in and out in under an hour and everyone who worked here was lovely. We will definitely be back to try more of the menu on our next visit!

With the help of some very helpful staff, I picked a Kyoto Matcha Latte and Matcha Souffle Pancake, which didn't take long. The Kyoto Matcha Latte was okay. It was thankfully not a green Milk like I have had for other places, but it wasn't anything special. It was also really small for the price I paid. The Matcha Souffle Pancake was fantastic. It had the right amount of sweetness and slight bitterness to it. Also, so soft and bouncy. Basically melt in your mouth. I devoured this within a few minutes after getting it. Thankfully I remembered to take a pic before doing so. Overall, great Souffle Pancakes and great service. Would definitely come back here for more.

I liked the strawberry sauce on top and it paired well with the fruits. They do serve a lunch menu but only available after 11am. We also got some drinks, but they were ok. Nothing notable. Definitely the main highlight of this place is their pancakes. Service was quick and they have people that run the food to you. Pancakes do take about 15 minutes because they are freshly made and you can watch them make it at the counter. There is a lot of seating area, and it is a really cute Japanese style cafe.

I ordered the oatmeal, and the table also got the smashed avocado toast and Greek yogurt. Everything looked incredible, and the food was great overall. It's a solid option if you're looking for a tasty breakfast with plenty of options to start your day. Unfortunately, the service was a bit hit or miss. Even with a reservation, we still waited about 20 minutes to be seated. Once we were at the table, we had to wait for silverware, and there was also a mistake with the bill. Nothing that ruined the meal, but a few little things that added up and took away from the experience. That said, the food was absolutely worth it, and I'd happily come back. Beatrix is a great spot for breakfast or brunch in Streeterville, and hopefully our next visit will come with a smoother service experience. Four stars! Come for the food, just be prepared for a little patience during a busy morning.
