Eggs with Benefits is a nice little restaurant on Loyola's campus connected to the Grenada Center. It was easy to order and get food but it's not a general breakfast/brunch spot. The meals have Asian influences / fusion and they're really good! I had the Japanese curry bowl and it was filling and delicious. I had it for two meals that day. My wife had the bacon and eggs sando which was really good too! The staff was also easy to talk to and chill about questions. Great place to visit, definitely recommend going and also support small businesses! read more

What's there not to like? Soft pillowy eggs, beautifully caramelized onions, yummy sauce all served on a plush bun. I'll be back. No line, easy pick up. Store seemed empty at around 11:30AM on a Tuesday. read more

I ordered the steak taco and it had maybe one piece of steak and was extremely soggy the chorizo sandwich was also super soggy and gross. I requested no onion jam and this was added in still. Just overall not a great experience and not enjoyable. read more

After the first real snow in years, we wandered through Rogers Park searching for a hot breakfast and came upon Eggs with Benefits, a new eatery by Loyola. Order at the digital kiosk, then have a seat and wait for your name. I was impressed with the size of the portions - the bowls are large enough to share. And they tasted great, too! The Japanese Curry bowl is a large bowl of rice covered in soft, scrambled eggs, genuine SB Golden Curry, with a crispy hash brown potato on top. Each bite was full of flavor, and it was gone before we blinked. Washed it down with a cup of freshly squeezed OJ and a black coffee, and I was ready to meet the day. If you haven't tried Eggs with Benefits, you're missing out! This is a great local place offering up tasty eats with good ingredients. Stop by and give them a try! read more

Pretty good breakfast burgers. Staff is extremely nice. Stinks there's no parking lot and it's on a very busy street. But Will order to go again. read more

I came here on Saturday for an early lunch. It was easy to get a table and ordering is easy with the touch screens. The food came out pretty quickly. I got the soft scramble sandwich and it was delicious. The egg was perfectly cooked. I want to try the other sandwiches and the other offerings there. I tried the side of kimchi and it was hot. I was not expecting kimchi to be hot as it's normally served cold. I think it would have been better cold. read more

Can only speak to the food as we ordered breakfast to be delivered. The steak Sando was delish. I think the steak bowl was alright, sometimes challenging to tell if it's the right cut of steak. It was a flavorful breakfast nonetheless. read more

Eggs with Benefits is a newer addition to Rogers Park and I can only imagine what it's like to have such a cool breakfast spot on Loyola's campus! They have Asian-inspired egg bowls like a doshirak and Japanese curry hash bowl as well as delicious egg sandwiches! We tried their Slagel Sausage and Egg sandwich which is an incredible combination of slagel farms pork sausage, soft scrambled eggs, cheese, garlic mayo, chives, and caramelized onions on a brioche bun. Service was quick and there was a lot of space for seating inside! I would LOVE to return and highly recommend you check it out! read more

Eggs With Benefits - Sausage - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Great scramble eggs in all the dishes and having them in traditional and less common ways (doshirak and Japanese curry). Would have loved to have less plastic (bowls come in ready-to-go takeout bowls which you can slap a lid on for leftovers to take). Would have been fine with tap water (not sure what beverage is best here if not coffee). Canned calamansi soda might have been one option. Of course tap water in a plastic cup is only part-way better than plastic bottled water...just looking at a better beverage pairing while keeping costs down in this counter-service small staff approach. Much more impressed with the egg skills here than another breakfast sandwich place in RP. Thanks Will and Andrew for another great launch in the RP area. read more

You know something, oftentimes when a place on Yelp has a five star average, that means one of two things: 1. A place is really and truly fantabulous. 2. There is something a little bit awry, and the algorithm has not yet picked it up. I'm glad to report in this case it is option one. Eggs With Benefits is all that. My issue with most breakfast places is most often it is something I can make for myself for a tenth of the cost. I'm not keen about paying $14.95 for two eggs, two bacon strips, and a little bit of potatoes, and then $2.95 for coffee, +tax, +tip. EWB is one of (now) three places that has a breakfast I am willing to pay for. The remaining two are in Massachusetts. They are reasonably priced, and their options are interesting and things I wouldn't necessarily make for myself at home. This time, I had a Chorizo Sandwich. The sando was wonderfully flavorful, with the chorizo adding a massive savoriness and having just a tiny bit of kick. The onions added some sweetness and crispness, and the eggs were as soft as could be. As for cheese... well, can't go wrong! I do, however, have two criticisms: 1. While the brioche was soft and a little sweet, I am not sure this was an appropriate choice. The sandwich had a lot of moisture, and the bread was already moist when I first picked it up, and then quickly became a fork and knife affair. 2. The hashbrowns reminded me of the kinds you get at McDonald's. Not bad, but I would have hoped for something a little more home-made and less "Industrial." However, I understand that as this isn't a full sit-down restaurant or diner, it may be a matter of practicality. Finally, the food came out reasonably fast and the staff were kind and welcoming. As for the vibe, it is notably minimalistic, but clean. Thus, Eggs With Benefits is a breakfast place that made into the extremely short list of breakfast places I enjoy. I am greatly looking forward to returning and trying more of their offerings! read more

First of all, the name alone deserves an automatic visit. I was extremely excited to see Eggs With Benefits open in the neighborhood because I have been looking for a spot that makes a simple egg sandwich. I finally got around to visiting the restaurant and I do not know what took me so long. The inside of the restaurant is spacious and clean. They opted for a minimalist decor but they have a ton of sitting that could accommodate parties of 1-4 people. This is the perfect spot to attract both the college and local crowd. The staff is top notch at Eggs With Benefits. They were helpful and friendly to every single person that stopped in. On the menu the eggs are described as soft scrambled but I observed them being willing to accommodate someone that wanted harder eggs and bacon. During my visit I asked one of the staff members which sandwich was the most popular and he said it was an even split between the sausage and bacon sandwich. So I opted for the bacon sandwich while my husband got the sausage sandwich both with a side of hash brown. In this day and age when places have to cut back on the size of their dishes, Eggs With Benefits does not hold back. I kid you not, there are not a lot of places I visit in which after the first bite of the food I know they are going to be in the area for awhile. I did not realize how important having seasoned eggs was until I visited Eggs With Benefits. You can tell that they are passionate about having quality breakfast sandwiches while still keeping it reasonability priced. Initially I was hesitant to order the side of hash brown because it felt like it was a lot of food but I wanted to test out the quality. I am so happy I got the hash brown because it was the right amount of crispy without being greasy. I normally stray away from hash browns or tater tots because they are always greasy but I have not idea how they found a way to make it perfectly crispy. I got a solid two meals out of my order. I highly recommend visiting Eggs With Benefits. I can easily see myself visit here weekly because I do not think I have had a better breakfast sandwich since leaving NYC. read more

First of all, love the name it's very cute and spot on. We ordered the slaver farms sausage sando's this morning which were pretty good. Very savory bites, but I think it needed a vegetable like arugula or a sweet jam to balance out the cheese. My husband absolutely loved it exactly how it was. We also tried out the doshirak which we both absolutely loved. read more

Place has potential but still not ready to play with the big boys. My dislikes were the sauce wasn't plentiful albeit being responsible for 90% of the flavor. I also didn't like the fact that steak was sort of ground up thus leading it to be messy & most of it residing or falling into your plate. Cheese was correct & the prices are on par with most of the city at around $12 a sandwich. Again decent sandwich but far from the best in the city. read more

Quick stop before graduation- the egg samie was on point. The onion jam was worth the up charge. Service was fast.

I know this place has high reviews but unfortunately I cannot concur. Visited here recently with my daughter while she was home from college. This place is right near Loyola and we live in the area and always in search of new good breakfast spots. The staff was very friendly, they greeted us (as well as each person who entered) and offered to answer any questions we had. This place is set up so that no one takes your order, you input your own order onto one of the two available touch screens in the place. This quickly caused a line to build as people have varying degrees of comfort and need time to search and check selections, etc. I was surprised to find that as a breakfast place they have NO options for coffee. They literally just offer plan coffee, no special creamers, no lattes, nothing extra. And unfortunately the coffee was terrible! Tasted like gas station coffee. I threw it away and I can usually doctor up a cup of coffee but there was nothing to doctor it up with! The menu is super limited. I had a basic egg breakfast sandwich with came with some sort of sauce on it. It was very moist, which was a strange texture for a breakfast sandwich. (Other reviewers have also mentioned how wet the sandwiches are). We also ordered the "fresh baked donut" to try. It was pretty flavorless and also ended up in the trash. I'd recommend they drastically improve the quality and variety on their menu, and for goodness sakes get some coffee options as a breakfast restaurant! read more

Excellent coffee and good breakfast sandwiches. A nice spot to grab and go if you're looking for a filling breakfast on the go.

Breakfast sandwich is so good that you think about them all day long. If you haven't checked this place out it is so comforting and everybody there is so nice. read more

Let's be honest - we all had a rough morning. Maybe you're running late and experienced the dreaded ghost bus, or maybe it started to storm and today is the day you didn't pack an umbrella in your bag. Whether the cause is, I'm a firm believer that a breakfast sandwich can fix everything. My sandwich was buttery and rich, and the owner was warm and friendly. Definitely a needed morning pick-me-up in my books! You can tell how much care goes into the food here. I could write poetry about the caramelized onions! read more

Had a deal via uber eats for a 2 for 1 on an egg sandwich, we ordered that and then two hash browns. Hashbrowns were awesome perfectly crispy and the perfect portion. The eggs were fluffier than any eggs I have ever had, on a brioche style bun with chives and a sweet onion sauce that paired perfectly. My daughter is a picky eater and she loved her sandwich. The cheese was melty and gooey. Very flavorful and fluffy sandwich. read more

I got a bacon and egg sando to go and it was delicious. I had them put the mayo on the side and didn't need it, tons of flavor without it. Very convenient location by LUC as well. read more

Eggs with Benefits is just heavenly to be honest. I'm not even the biggest egg person but this place makes me crave them. A delectable soft scramble upon some of the best butter-toasted buns I've ever had... add the garlic mayo, melty cheese and caramelized onions and it's seriously the best breakfast you'll ever have. I've also tried the Japanese curry bowl with the crispiest hashbrown on top. I've also enjoyed a good side of kimchi. And the fresh orange juice is FRESH! Service is always fast, employees are super friendly (shout out to the one guy who gave me, my sister and boyfriend some free hashbrowns to celebrate midterms being over!!) and the inside is nice and clean if you're trying to sit down and eat it at its freshest. read more

We've eaten food from here a few times and it never disappoints! They have breakfast bowls, but our go-to is the Soft Scramble sandwich on Brioche. The combination of the creamy eggs, caramelized onions, chives, and garlic mayo is perfect! I add some sausage to the sandwich and an order of hashbrowns. Parking can be a challenge, but nearby side streets have places to park and are within walking distance. It's practically on the Loyola campus. We order online and it's always ready on time and they're really nice! The restaurant is always clean from what we can tell. Again, we take our orders to go. read more

This place was a Godsend for me and my traveling companions. We were in need of food and I needed to rest as I was not feeling well. We were also caught in the storm that was the software failure for flights. Andrew the owner made us delicious food and continued to be helpful and kind to us for the duration of our frantic stay in his restaurant. He even offered us coffee! Even though I didn't feel well, when I did get to eat his food was perfectly balanced and delicious. This is definitely a place I will revisit when back in Chicago! Please please make sure you visit this absolute gem of a place! Thank you Andrew! I know this review is super late but it's definitely worth it to post! read more

I have tried both their AM and PM menu. Their breakfast bowls are so good! Their PM taco menus are also amazing. I have tried almost every taco option and they are so flavorful and so fresh. The service is also so amazing, they welcome you in and make sure if you need anything they are readily there for you. read more

People of Edgewater and Rogers Park: Run (don't walk) to Eggs with Benefits: Korean inspired breakfast sandwiches (egg, sausage, smoked bacon, steak and egg & chorizo) + rice bowls (tonkotsu, Japanese curry and steak and egg). Fantastic!!!! I ordered the soft scramble sandwich on brioche. I added in a hash brown patty and it made it *chefs kiss* amazing. What makes the sandwiches special is the buttery soft and delicious brioche bun and soft scramble eggs. They cook the eggs (real eggs) from scratch at low temp. Taste just like home made. They just opened in the middle October. Go support this amazing local business you won't be disappointed. read more

The food here is delicious. I often think about how dang good the breakfast sandwich is. It's affordable too. Great place to have around.

I had delivery of two sandwiches and they were excellent! They had good packaging that kept the sandwiches fresh and they didn't arrive soggy. The sandwich bun was delicious and toasted, and the eggs were soft with yummy cheese. Definitely would order again! They were also BOGO on uber eats so a great deal. read more

Had the soft scramble sandwich and doshirak bowl. So delicious! Friendly service, cozy vibe, conveniently located. Looking forward to returning to try more items! read more

My new favorite spot. They have the art of eggs down to a science; always the perfect texture and consistency. The quality of their products is just that, quality. so it hits every time. The sandwiches are perfect; the hash browns are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. I love this place the service is quick, the prices are right and so is the vibe. I live above a cafe that serves breakfast but I'd rather drive/ hop on the redline and grab a sandwich from here because the food is just that good. 10/10 read more

These are not your typical egg sandwiches. I LOVE THIS PLACE. I always catch myself craving their bowls and their sandwiches and their unique drink selection. This place is a 10/10 Delicious food, friendly workers, and yummy drinks! read more

I decided to try it out with my husband and two friends (all first timers) today--I regret sleeping on this restaurant! First thing I noticed--the whole staff seemed very engaged, friendly, and genuinely happy--usually a sign of great leadership and a great experience--and that was the case with our visit. Everything was clean and well-organized, and I liked the simple esthetic of the dining area. The quality of ingredients was fantastic, and all of the food was cooked to perfection. Favorite foods of our table included the Slagel Sausage and Egg sandwich, steak and egg sandwich, and the Japanese curry hash bowl. We also all loved that the menu is simple and uncomplicated--the perfect amount of options and offers something for just about anyone's needs. On a side note, while the owner, Andrew, apologized for this, I was ecstatic to see a line from the order kiosks all the way to the door! We are looking forward to coming back soon, and having EWB in the neighborhood for years to come! read more

Adorable neighborhood gem with an eye-catching name. Saw it across the street from Target so many times I decided I had to try it. I ordered take-out one day and it was ready very quickly. I had the curry bowl with rice, eggs, caramelized onions and a hash brown patty, plus a couple slices of pickled daikon. Taste sensation! The food was still piping hot when I got home. This is a simple menu with a fabulous price point. I was excited to see a full restaurant when I went into pick up. Can't wait to try one of their breakfast sandwiches! read more

A clean sparsely furnished cafe, but as close to perfect egg and bacon sandwich as you can get.

Breakfast sandwiches seem to be everywhere now in Chicago. Seems to be inspired by Bear tv show. But this newest addition is doing it right. I had the sausage patty egg and hash brown on brioche. Absolutely amazing. Right next to Loyola's Campus in Rogers Park. Fast friendly service in a newly renovated space. read more

Eggs With Benefits - Sausage Hash Patty - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Breakfast places are a dime a dozen. There are so many because breakfast dishes are pretty easy to make. Eggs with Benefits is a new entrant on an odd stretch of Sheridan Road. This basic interior place has integrated Korean ingredients and form factors like breakfast bowls. They also have breakfast sandwiches as well. You order from a touch screen. We ordered a Chorizo and Egg Sandwich, a Bacon and Egg Sandwich, hash browns, kimchi, and a Topo Chico. The sandwiches were good. The kimchi is not served cold but more as a warm relish. This cost $35, which included a tip. read more

Brand new and knocking it the park from the gate. The sandwiches are so light and fluffy and butter and everything an egg sandwich should be. I got the little coffee on the right which is the perfect size for breakfast. It was sweet but not sugary, strong but not bitter. The hashbrown was perfectly crispy. The staff were all exceptionally friendly. read more

Stopped in because I was soooo hungry and forgot my yogurt in the fridge and had a 10 A.M. meeting. The guy, who I assume is the owner, was beyond nice and HONEST. When I asked him how long it would take to get something with eggs to go he said like 5 min. He was spot on! Had a steak and egg sandwich - normally do not eat that way in the morning but it was EGGSELLENT! Will be back for sure when I am in the area to try something else! The place is also very clean, so I really hit the jackpot today!!! Love the name too LOL read more
