    So here's how our visit to Egg Harbor went. We originally planned to eat at a different restaurant, but when we got there, the wait was over an hour. Not wanting to wait that long, we went with our second option--Egg Harbor--and honestly, it ended up being the better choice. The atmosphere was cozy and matched the feel of the place perfectly. They use a text system to let you know when your table is ready, which was very convenient. My wife ordered the Ultimate Skillet, and I had the Lobster Scrambler. Both were very flavorful and cooked perfectly. Our server, Juan, was handling quite a few tables, but you wouldn't have known it by the way he handled all of his customers, very attentive, helpful, and professional. The three ladies at the hostess stand were also really friendly and welcoming. Between the great food, top-notch service, and warm staff, we left feeling like Egg Harbor should have been our first choice from the start. We'll definitely be back, thanks Juanca and staff!!!

    Solid Brunch Spot in Schaumburg with Great Twists Tried Egg Harbor Café in Schaumburg and left impressed. It's a big, cozy spot with a laid-back, country-style vibe great for a casual brunch. We had the Smoked Salmon Benedict poached eggs, arugula, tomato, and hollandaise done right. One of the best versions I've had. The Cherrywood Avocado Toast was another standout, with fresh avocado, cherrywood bacon, and pickled red onions on sourdough. Also ordered the Dynamite Veggie White Omelet loaded with veggies, light but flavorful. We swapped the potatoes for a side of fruit, which was a nice touch. Don't skip the Maple Bourbon Bacon sweet, smoky, and crispy. And the Strawberry Orange Juice was super refreshing. Service was okay, not very attentive, could be improved. I'd rate this a 4 out of 5. Worth a visit if you're in the area.

    First time at Egg Harbor and it did not disappoint. I had the San Antonio skillet and it was fire--I cleaned the plate lol. Super cute and reliable spot for breakfast at a decent price. The service was great, and I even ended up buying one of their coffee mugs because it was too cute. Overall, I'd definitely come back next time I'm in the area!

    Traveling through the city and wanted a mid day meal. I think the flavor combinations of the scrambles and frittatas caught my eye. I ordered the Sir Dugan frittata. It was a savory selection that worked well with the buttered English muffin. I wish there was an Egg Harbor Cafe in my town.

    Happy birthday to me

    I'm celebrating my birthday here at Egg Harbor Cafe where the food is awesome I ordered the lobster scramble as it is on the picture and I also had an oat milk, caramel macchiato, and water with lots of lemons also celebrated with me with the order of pancakes for my birthday and a happy birthday from the truth thanks Egg Harbor Cafe for making my birthday special also the service was great considering how busy they were my server was Filip and the Ambiance is Great very Homey and comfortable

    Egg Harbor is still going strong. There hasn't been much change since my last review. I've been getting delivery the last few years, and the food is still delicious. The lobster scrambler is still good, but the amount of protein has definitely reduced. I wouldn't recommend the farmer's benedict unless you like your benny to be a bit tart. The artichoke definitely makes the entire dish sour tasting. Not the best flavor combo. Hash browns are crispy and taste better than their harbor potatoes. The jam is still homemade and is fresh tasting. Service is quick. You can now pay your check via apple pay with a QR code, which is convenient.

    We needed a place to stop for food and happened to seek this place out. Glad we did! Cute farm house cafe style and the service was attentive and fast. Joes breakfast wrap was delicious and the potatoes were softy but crispy. Some of the best breakfast potatoes I've enjoyed out! The cool thing is the potatoes are cooked in pure beef tallow! The seasonal pumpkin pancakes were fluffy and spiced nicely. We would love to visit again when back in the area!

    Great breakfast! It's been a couple years since we've been to an Egg Harbor. My wife and I split a Pot Roast Breakfast Skillet and added a Cinnamon Roll. Our server, Maggie was quite pleasant and accommodating. She split our skillet and let us order one scrambled egg and one over medium egg. Perfect! The breakfast dish as well as the cinnamon roll were great. Another nice touch here is they leave you both a carafe of coffee and ice water. Edit: Another nice touch is the ability to pay from your table by scanning the QR code on the check. I scanned it, selected Apple Pay and it was paid. Super easy. We'll be back to an Egg Harbor in the future.

    We flew into Chicago this morning and had a gift certificate to a nearby winery so we decided to have lunch here beforehand. It was a good decision. Although the place was very crowded, the wait was only six minutes. Our waiter, Juan, quickly came over to take our orders. The menu has plenty of breakfast and lunch options. I opted for the Harbor Cobb Salad. It had grilled chicken, bacon, eggs, avocado, blue cheese, scallions, and lettuce, along with ranch dressing. Each entree also comes with an English muffin. My husband had the Door County chicken salad. It had two scoops of chicken salad atop a salad full of vegetables with poppyseed dressing. We both loved our salads. Service was pretty fast considering how busy they were.

    My waiter surprised me with gluten-free pancakes as a congratulations for graduating with my masters!

    HUGE gluten free menu and they have dedicated fryers for celiacs! Went for my graduation brunch with a party of 13. Staff, food, atmosphere, accommodations, and overall everything was amazing. recommend. My waiter even surprised me with an adorable plate of gluten-free pancakes and whipped cream and congratulations for graduating with my masters.

    Egg Harbor is now my favorite local brunch spot. Why? Consistently tasty food delivered pretty quickly to your table by very friendly servers. Get your very own hot pot of coffee left at your table along with the cutest Egg Harbor pottery mugs. And? We always get offered hot coffee to go! My favorite breakfast plate is Joe's Healthy Scrambler with chicken sausage, spinach, mushrooms and egg whites, topped with low fat mozzarella accompanied by fresh fruit and a wheat English muffin. If you want a lighter meal packed with flavor and cheese, this is a perfect brunch dish. My husband always gets the pancakes here. Prices are what you would expect for breakfast in this area.

    Lobster scrambler with potatoes and an English muffin. The house made jam was yummy!

    We stopped at the Egg Harbor Cafe in Schaumburg on a Saturday morning. The wait time was about 10 minutes. Service and cleanliness was on point. My expectations for breakfast are always high. I had the lobster scrambler with potatoes and an English muffin. I was disappointed with the food overall. The lobster scrambler was rich and had a little too much cream cheese for me. The potatoes were okay. The best thing was their homemade jam. It was delicious, albeit it was more like a sauce. I used it on my English muffin and some on the french toast. I did taste the french toast. The texture and consistency was good, however I was picking up an after taste that was off putting. My wife had avocado toast and fruit that she didn't like. I think she felt the toast was bland. All the food was prepared correctly. The problem was mostly with the flavors which is subjective as it seems many people like Egg Harbor according to the reviews.

    Lox eggs Benedict

    We had some time to kill in the morning before at 9:00 a.m. appointment, so we stopped in for breakfast here. It was a Friday morning at 8:00, but still pretty busy. Even still the service was snappy, and we were able to get our breakfast pretty quickly. We also considered going to Wildberry, and they're not known for their fast service. So I'm glad I came here. I really enjoyed the dish, because I was a bit in the mood for bagels and lox, and this really hit the spot. The hollandaise sauce was not too heavy, the poached eggs were perfectly done, and the salmon was very tender. The portion was just right. The price was $18, so pretty reasonable. My partner had the omelette, and it appears that they mix green onions into the omelet, which she is allergic to. So, if that's a problem for you, or if it gives you heartburn, you might want to ask for the omelet without green onions.

I feel that many breakfast establishments do well with food and then so so with coffee. The R.EC. however has some good coffee as well as many other fantastic beverages to select from. Now to the good stuff or should I say the AMAZING stuff! I always see the same two guys back in the kitchen and they do such a nice job of consistently making great tasting high quality dishes. Even when a new dish or special is introduced the quality, taste and freshness is out of this world. The staff/ownership really knows what they are doing providing fast friendly service with a small town home made meal feeling. Plenty of booths and a side spot of tables where they can accommodate large groups, even an old school dinner counter to belly up close to the chiefs and catch a glimpse of all the dishes your going to have to come back and try. I'm almost reluctant to even tell you all how good this spot is as I want to keep it all to myself, lol

Although friendly greeting and being seated immediately, that went well. Where this train started going off the rails was when the waiter returned with our beverages it was obvious he had been somewhere eating because he had remnants of food on his mouth and was "smacking" his lips. We had to repeat request for things. Now, he was pleasant however not professional. Where we were seated there was trash (food and a straw) on the floor between the tables and no one even attempted to clean the floors around us. (Although I personally don't like sweeping around the table while eating because dirt and debris flys around when people use the brooms). For everything we ordered it was a bit salty in areas as if not distributed well. On one side of the dish it was extremely salty and the other side needed a touch of salt. Then when mixed the whole dish was almost too salty. Although we were told we had gotten there right after brunch there were very few customers, however even 30minutes in we still had not received our main courses. Disappointed is an understatement. Oh, and even after asking for the check took quite long. Suggestion to management at this location... Do better.
