    Looking for the perfect breakfast spot that gets you in and out quick and isn't a crazy amount of money? This place is it! The inside is warm and welcoming - the staff here is ultra friendly and helpful and the food is great. Everything we had here was really just what we needed. The eggs were cooked to perfection, the meats were too and the potatoes had a great taste. I do wish the Matt's meaty skillet had larger pieces of the ham, bacon and sausage - they were minced up really small. Only thing we didn't really like was the chorizo hash - bring back corned beef hash!! Great place for a quick breakfast.

    For me, the best breakfast option in this area of Deerfield. Everything about this setup is great, from plenty of parking to lots of sunlight in a spacious dining room to a large menu with reasonable prices, all with fast friendly service. As a bonus, the menu has a nice variety of interesting items like habanero hash and eggs, cherrywood avocado toast, shakshuka, and Swedish pancakes -- as well as interesting drinks such as Iced Pumpkin Apple Macchiato and Pumpkin Spice Latte expresso. The food here meets the great quality I generally expect from Egg Harbor Cafe, with colorful presentation, distinct textures, bold flavors, and fresh ingredients. I really enjoyed the attention paid to the little details like the crisp edges and spongy texture of the pancakes. Or the consistency of the sauce on the lobster scrambler. Even for more mundane items like the English Muffin, I appreciate how neatly it is cut, buttered, and slightly crisped and goes perfectly with the jam. The shakshuka also had a very great balance of different flavors with the tomato-pepper-onion and nice extra boost of meatiness from the egg and flavor from the goat cheese and cilantro. This was the first time I had this dish and Egg Harbor's well executed version made me a fan. Overall, a great spot for breakfast in Deerfield with plenty of delicious and fun options for all. I'll definitely be back again in the future to explore more amazing items.

    Where best pancakes are!

    Wish the pancake was bit more crisp like the downtown location. However still better than most places near by! Food is always on point! Fast service, always satisfied to eat here! My favorite breakfast place in Chicago!

    My husband and I met a friend on a Sunday morning at Egg Harbor Café. When we arrived it was busy but we were able to be seated right away. Our server was friendly. I ordered the chocolate chip pancakes and my husband ordered the lobster scrambler. The pancakes were just the way I like them, malty with crispy edges. Even when I was full, they were so good that I couldn't stop eating them. The lobster scrambler was good as well. The lobster was good and it came with a creamy hollandaise sauce. The jam that comes with the English muffin is also very tasty. As we were leaving the restaurant was starting to fill up and a line was forming. I had a great experience and highly recommend Egg Harbor Café!

    They sell their popular mugs which come in different colors for $20 I had to buy one lol

    Extensive menu with generous portions. We signed up on the waitlist on Saturday morning. When we arrived, there were ample open tables so we were seated immediately. One of us ordered a coffee and I like that they also give you a small carafe. Likewise with my Diet Coke -- they also gave me a full carafe of DC. There are many options for eggs, pancakes, Bennies and lunch items. I ordered a garden frittata and it was loaded with veggies and cheese, came with delicious harbor potatoes, an English muffin and jam. We also split a Strawberry French toast -- 3 large Texas-sized toast -- which was ok. This place gets packed on the weekends -- and staff is friendly and able to manage the hungry crowds. I also like that they bring the receipt with a QR code and you can pay by phone.

    Lobster scramble

    Can't really go wrong with Egg Harbor. I get my usual lobster scramble. Delicious if you like soft scramble with lobster bits and hollandaise sauce. Service is usually very good. One of the few breakfast spots with good coffee.

    Awesome breakfast, big enough to share. The scramble was filled with tasty bits but the star was the maple bourbon bacon, say that without your mouth watering! Also really appreciated the loose leaf tea service It was a nice touch.

    I have been to egg harbor many times over the years but the one in my hometown closed down. This was my first time at this location. Service was great! Our waiter was very kind and checked up on us. The ambiance is the family friendly breakfast vibes. Pretty consistent throughout the locations. My favorite item is the Cassie's crepes which they have since taken off the menus however, if you request it, they can make it for you using the Swedish batter. It was pretty good, and I would get again.

    This is an amazing brunch place. Food and coffee were delicious, and the interior was pleasant. It can be crowded on weekends, but I was still able to be seated without waiting too long. The portion size was decent. I wasn't able to finish my coffee so they allowed me to take out, which I thought was very nice. I ate here before going to a nearby water park (Hidden Creek Aquapark) and the food lasted long. I didn't get hungry too early after hours of water activities. Highly recommend this nice place!

When I went up to put my name on the list, the man writing names down was extremely rude to me and my family. The man at the front also made multiple microaggressive comments toward us, which made the experience uncomfortable from the start. The food, in my opinion, was also subpar. I ordered two eggs with bacon, potatoes, and pancakes. The eggs and potatoes were good, but the pancakes tasted strange, and the bacon tasted old and honestly pretty disgusting. My sister ordered the "Factory French Toast," and she said it literally tasted like something that came straight from a factory. My mom ordered the meat omelet and said it was just okay. When it was time to pay, we asked for the check to be split three ways. When we received the bill, we noticed they had charged us an additional fee just for splitting it. On top of that, while we were waiting in line to pay, the employee clearly saw us standing there, yet allowed another man to cut in front of us. There was also a confusing moment when my sister accidentally dropped a few things, including her card and my mom's card. Someone at the front helped pick them up, but then tried to pay using whichever card he had in his hand with a random receipt. My sister had to politely correct him. Overall, the service felt disorganized and disrespectful, and the food did not make up for it. Unfortunately, this was a really disappointing experience for my family.

Eggsperience is a big open and airy room in an antique white and light blue coloration making you feel at ease and welcome like a nice Spring day. We were seated at a table for four, but an additional person joined us and we figured we'd make room for five at our table. The staff insisted we move to a five-person round table despite them being busy. It was a nice sized table and gave plenty of room for five to six people, Our server was a lovely girl who was always coming by. The menu is huge and since we were all talking and having a good conversation, I never really was able to focus, so I ordered a traditional two eggs any style with meat and toast or pancakes. I got my eggs scrambled and dry, with bacon crispy and added diced potatoes (the ones that are just potatoes and nor peppers and diced onions), a toasted English muffin, and asked for a Diet Coke. She asked if I wanted Diet Pepsi or Pepsi Zero. PEPSI ZERO?!!! No one ever has Pepsi Zero. I said absolutely yes to the Pepsi Zero. So she brought me two mason jar mugs because she wasn't sure which was the Diet and which was the Zero. Apparently a staff member attached the two drinks to the wrong fountain heads and she wanted to know which I wanted. I was able to pick the Zero out fairly easily. How cool, Pepsi Zero. Anyway, we all got our food nd mine was made perfectly the way I ordered it. The eggs were made dry (not cooking with butter or oil), the potatoes were just roasted potatoes, the bacon was crispy, the English muffin was toasted (so my whipped butter filled in all the nooks and crannies - as they should do as advertised on TV), and the drink was Pepsi Zero! And our server was quick to replenish drinks. Plus, the cost does not break the bank. Many breakfast places tend to overprice their breakfast items. I wish I came here sooner. I't's easily one of my favorite breakfast places (easily in the Top 3). It was not just a pleasant experience. It was an Eggsperience (sorry, had to do the cheap pun!) :)
