Breakfast food 10/10. Soups 10/10. Service always great. Honestly just overall the perfect place for a breakfast or brunch.

Such a cute place! I ordered the Belgium waffle but the batter was just wayyyy too thick. It tasted like cake mix and it was dry and not crispy. I couldn't even finish a quarter of the waffle. With that said, the omelette we ordered was pretty good. Very big portion and filled with ingredients. The service was good our server checked with us multiple times.

My boyfriend kept telling me about Lake St Cafe and how much he loves it so we had to go! The inside is very cute, good for casual or nice breakfast. We had to add ourselves to a waitlist, but it goes very quick. Our waitress was wonderful, no complaints there. I got the bacon avocado burger and it was delicious! My boyfriend got the glazed donut burger and he also loved it. The plates were a bit too small, but our waitress was quick to bring me another plate. I kept seeing the pancakes from the tables around me, so I had to order them. They were huge and fluffy. This place definitely satisfied all my cravings! I will definitely come back.

Getting started with our breakfast order.

Our 1st time visit was on a Tuesday at 9:30am. The inside decor is a very pretty light blue and silver. It looks upscale. There are so many breakfast options. After much thought I chose the cinnamon roll pancakes. Three large pancakes. The menu said pure maple syrup is available so I requested that. The pancakes were dessert worthy. When we got our bill I noticed that there was a $2 charge for the pure maple syrup. I inquired about the charge and our server politely showed me that the charge was listed on the menu under "a la carte" items. I hadn't seen it before I ordered it. So be aware that while the menu says "pure maple syrup is available" there is an additional charge for it. This woukd be a nice restaurant to meet with family and friends.

I've been coming here a few times now since they opened. This is one of my local brunch place to go. They have their own private parking lot, is gets really busy during the weekend brunch times. The place has a modern look to it. Their menu have pretty popular breakfast dishes that you can even order a burger for breakfast or breakfast meal for lunch. I noticed today that their meals are pretty hefty portions for your the price you pay. It's not your typical ihop or Denny's kind of place. A bit trendy, it's spacious with booths and tables and they can accommodate large parties I would recommend to call ahead if space is available. No reservations but table turns out quickly. They play nice music in the back ground and the noise level is low medium. There's no tvs so you focus on your food and people around you. They also serve mimosa drink yes alcohol, on the other side of the dinning area they have a coffee bar have a cappuccino have a seat and they have some high top tables if you want to work on the laptop for a bit. We were greeted right away when we entered the place. The food came out hot and fresh. What I liked: I typically get the country fried steak with sausage gravy comes with homemade potatoes fries, and two huge fluffy pancakes. We also go a quarter pound burger on a brioche bun and season crisscrossed fries with garlic aloi Got kids grilled cheese which was tasty that came with crisscrossed season fries. Mom got the garden omelette added chopped breakfast sausage side of homemade potatoes fries and sourdough toast. I tried their corned beef which was good extra crispy, Bacon on the side was extra crispy per request. I like their toasted sourdough bread too. I also tried their cappuccino which was nice to have. They offer fresh squeezed oj as you can see in the coffee area an orange squeeze machine. I also had their smoked salmon and cream cheese meal that was good and a lot of salmon. The staff was friendly and attentive our drinks were filled that we didn't have to ask. Overall a great experience, they even took care of us of a mistake of a take out of forgotten items in the past that we were still able to use our dine in credit for our meal today. Very nice manager on call today. She made us feed welcomed and appreciated us coming in and dine with them. If you are in the area I recommend to check this brunch place out and see for yourself. Whether if your sharing a meal or order a meal for yourself and take home leftovers come on by you won't be disappointed:)

This place has long been in my eyesights, and we figured it was about time on a (cold) winter morn to make the trek down from Schaumburg! When we walked in, we were taken by the modern and well-maintained decor- and we were seated within 45 seconds- not too bad. The menu contained all the traditional, expected accoutrements of an American pancake house - with a readable menu "not" written in a size 8 font (yay!). We quickly ordered fresh-squeezed OJ (pricey, but good), and I ordered an American breakfast that consisted of 3 eggs (at least), lotsa taters, 3 pcs of sausage, and rye toast. Hubby ordered the Avocado Toast - a dish we relocated SoCal folks love. The food came at - literally- a warm (but not hot) temp- the Avocado Toast was yummy and very generous (the flavor was really good- and the avocado was totally fresh- nice!). My American breakfast was HUGE. And yup- it was good. We looked at each other and wondered why it took us SO LONG to drive down here? Probably as it's not super close to us, maybe? Damn. We'll be back.

We went because I had seen an ad for half off dinners through June and thought it would be a great way to try it. The initial impression was great, the space is clean and cute, very well designed. I was surprised that it wasn't jam packed with the 50% off special. After trying the food, I understand why. The yelp reviews for breakfast looked amazing, so I had high hopes for dinner. First, the calamari was good! Light, airy, and tasted good. The rest of meal was not as good. The prime rib was odd, I ordered medium rare and it came out looking grey and tasted like it had been microwaved. They also forgot the bring the horseradish and when I asked the waitress told me it didn't come with it, even though it clearly says it does in the menu. The chicken parm was like cafeteria chicken parm, nothing special, and the fettuccini Alfredo was creamy, but needed seasoning. Every the ing except for the calamari needed seasoning, even just some salt. The waitress was hard to find, and when she dropped the check, she'd forgotten the 50% off. I waited for her to come back, but had to go to the front to get it taken care of and to pay the bill. I would work harder on offering a better product. The space is great and the waitstaff has a great attitude, just maybe need some training.

I've been to Lake St Cafe multiple times and I'm excited everytime. It's my favorite lowkey brunch spot in the suburbs, not too bad price wise, and lots of space. I typically go later in the afternoon and I've never had a problem being sat, the service is always good, and food comes quick. My go to is the breakfast sandwich and the cinnamon french toast is to die for. Tried a bite of the cheesy spicy chicken waffle, and while it's rich, I think I'll give that a try next time I'm in the mood for something savory. Everything is always clean and staff is personable.

Maria T.

Excellent first experience. Menu had plenty of options but not overwhelming. Food was delicious. Spacious, bright, tasteful decor. Service was professional, friendly, and attentive. Details: Food: I ordered the chilaquiles with steak and eggs over easy. Nicely plated with salsa on the side. Hubby ordered the country fried steak. Both meals were delicious and we both had leftovers to take home. Decor: it's a big place with lots of seating, booths and table tops. The decor is tasteful - bright, simple, clean. I like the drop ceiling tiles and the flower arrangement on the round table upon entry. I like that they have a separate area for bar/counter top eating. Customer service: I forgot to get our server's name but he was really nice/friendly. He was attentive even though you could tell he was busy. He always looked over when he passed by to see if we needed anything. Only suggestion: hire a host/hostess... shouldn't be the person behind the register (especially on a busy Saturday morning). World recommend. Will be back.

The inside of this place is beautiful, modern, spacious, and really well designed. We came on a busy Sunday morning and were told it'd be a 20-minute wait, but we got seated in five, which was a nice surprise. We started with drinks, and the freshly squeezed orange juice was really good. The chai latte was just okay. For food, we got the breakfast burrito with chorizo, and it seriously lacked flavor. The salsa helped a little, but not enough. I got the country fried steak, which is usually my go-to breakfast order, but this one wasn't great. The gravy was cold, so I sent it back, and when they brought it out again, it was boiling hot and burned my tongue. The breading on the steak tasted stale, and the potatoes were cut way too big. They need to dice them in half at least. They were also super bland. I figured maybe their breakfast sweets would be better since that seems to be their thing, but my pancakes were dry and just crumbled apart. Honestly, the decor and service were great, but the food was disappointing. I wouldn't come back. There are way better breakfast spots in the area.

Decided to visit Lake St Cafe after seeing other positive reviews on Yelp. This inside had been beautifully remodeled for a light and bright interior. I loved the soft tones, subtle patterned wallpaper, textures on soft seating, and decor/lighting throughout. This spot was the hot place to be for a Sunday morning! Although it was crowded, it didn't take more than 5 minutes of waiting to be seated. Once sat, staff was quick to bring us water. Our server came in the right amount of time to review the menu and decide in orders. While many things looked intriguing, I decided on the Breakfast Sandwich and my fiancé on the Souther Breakfast. Food took about 15-20 minutes but came out hot. I chose for the Breakfast Sandwich to be with crispy bacon and in a croissant. I did ask for a side of aioli to add which elevated the flavors. I tried my fiancé's biscuits and gravy which were tasty! Our visit was great and we both said we would go back. Parking could be a bit tough during busy weekend hours but we eventually found a spot!

Jo L.

Very cute breakfast spot, roomy booths and great atmosphere. Friendly and sweet staff, our server Rosa was on top of everything. Food came out quickly. Everything we had was yummy and big portions. Definitely recommend

Homemade Corned Beef Skillet Very filling

Great breakfast , large portions, good flavor, fluffy pancake, tasted so good! Great people, very friendly and helpful.

Beautifully decorated restaurant. Would be perfect to take girlfriends or your mom, especially with the fun cocktail menu. Food menu was upscale and fun. However, the avocado toast didn't have much taste and needs another texture to make it more palatable. My son's chicken and waffles had way too much liquid cheese and even he couldn't eat it. I brought these comments up to our server and while she seemed disappointed, didn't do anything to remedy it. In the end, was just ok for nearly $70 for three people. read more

We've eaten here a couple of times now and it's really good! We recently came on New Year's Day and had a great experience. Our server, Alyssa, was excellent and very accommodating. The food was great and was in hearty portions for the price. The atmosphere is lovely - they did a great job remodeling after they bought the place. Usually open for breakfast and lunch but are open for dinner on weekends. Try it out! We will be back! read more

Although it was busy, there was no wait for a table and they were well-staffed so there were no lapses in service. My husband went back for lunch that week and said it was also delicious.

We went based on a social media post indicating 50% off for dinner. We let the server know of the promotion when she finally came over after we were seated to take our drink order and she said it was no longer valid. We showed the actual post and she still said it wasn't valid. Because we were there, we decided to stay anyway. Bad idea. The restaurant was not crowded at all at 5:30 pm on Saturday for dinner - that should have been our first clue what we were in for; there were only 3 other tables that were taken. The hostess appeared almost bothered we walked in the door. We were at the table more than 5 minutes without even water when the server finally appeared. When the food finally came it was not even warm. The prime rib was cooked well but had absolutely no flavor. The potatoes and vegetables were actually cold and also flavorless. The server had to be flagged down to get the one refill on our sodas. The restaurant was clean enough though the cloth covered chairs were stained and dirty. The restrooms were clean and the best part of the experience. The location is convenient. Wiith less than mediocre food, the service can make all the difference. At the time of our visit, the service was actually worse than the food. Overall, I would not recommend this restaurant for dinner and would find it difficult to believe the quality of food and service can be that much different for breakfast. Patronize at your own risk. read more

The food was the only highlight of our visit--everything we ordered was genuinely good. Unfortunately, the service left a lot to be desired. Our server (whose name I can't recall) seemed upset and uninterested from the start. She rarely checked in, wasn't friendly, and disappeared for most of our meal. After taking our order, she only came by once and didn't return until the dishes were being cleared by bus staff asking if we were done. It was clear she was avoiding our table. There were five of us, and we needed separate checks, but she never asked and just assumed we wanted one. By the time she returned, one of us ended up paying the full bill out of convenience, and we had to sort out the payments ourselves. It was frustrating. I'd recommend the food, but with service like that, I wouldn't go back. read more

We went for Mother's Day breakfast/lunch and checked in around 10:40am. We were told that if the party they were waiting on, didn't show, we'd be seated next, if not, I'd receive a text in 45mins-1hr. it had passed the time we were given upfront, so someone from the party went inside for an update around 12:10/15pm. They were told that there were 3 parties ahead of us and it would be an additional 45 minutes. It is the following day, and I never received a text regarding our table for 7. We have previously had a good experience here, but it seems like whoever checked us in may have forgot about us. read more

If I could give them more than five stars I would. This is family owned business and I must say I loved everything about this restaurant. We were a party of eight celebrating our friend's birthday and we were seated in under 10 minutes. The entire staff were friendly and gave us a warm welcome. Shout out to Alyssa our waiter for the outstanding service she gave us. She was VERY patient as catered to each of us. The food was delicious and a good amount for the price. My favorite was the French toast. My friends recommend the iced chai tea latte with vanilla syrup! We all had the skirt steak skillet and loved it. The restaurant is clean and ambiance was everything we hoped it would be. They gave the celebrant a little birthday surprise and helped with our pictures. Lake St. Cafe is a hidden gem! read more

Glanced at the pastry box and went with an herbed goat cheese croissant, lemon blueberry scone, and a chocolate donut. Can't forget the cold brew. Plenty of seating both inside and out with a back room too for big events. Sat down and the cold brew was ready. Very smooth and refreshing and gave me the jump I need. The scone was meh but that herbed goat cheese croissant was . Never had a croissant like that before. Donut was a donut. All in all, def make a stop in to check out Brewpoint.

They still had the same coffee menu, seasonal drinks, and baked good offering; but, felt a lot more like a neighborhood destination. I ended up ordering coffee for my work team and all were impressed by the flavors! I got a Black Americano, Hot Borealis Latte, and the Whipped Carrot Cake Latte for myself. The Carrot Cake Latte may be a new all time favorite of mine! It wasn't too sweet but just leaned into the flavor profile enough. My coworker who had the Hot Borealis said it may have been her favorite latte she's tried. I also got the Herbed Goat Cheese Croissant which is familiar yet unique with the pop of savoriness. Overall, this was a great experience as a stop in when passing through the area. Brewpoint continues to have great flavors that leaves a lasting impression. Staff is friendly and pricing is fair.

We had an old machine that needed repair. He was totally honest with us as to whether or not it could be saved. We trusted him with our relic and David delivered. Our machine is working better than ever at twenty plus years old. So now let me tell you about the coffee they roast. It's unreal. The regular coffee is like rocket fuel. I really need to stick to his decaf which is super tasty too. My husband flies through the regular coffee so we replenish a lot. It's the only bean we buy. I give this place over 5 stars LVE IT‼‼

Before coming, I researched the problem and found a YouTube video showing the exact same error, sound, and symptoms. In that case, the issue was caused by a small piece of metal stuck in the grinder, and after cleaning it, the machine worked perfectly. I explained this to the shop. After a long wait, they told me the grinder was "broken" and needed to be replaced. I did not believe this, especially since I had already seen identical cases resolved by simple cleaning. When I tried to explain and mention the video, the technician was rude, argumentative, and did not even let me speak. When I brought the machine home, it did not work at all. I later found out they had turned off a switch on the back of the machine and didn't bother to turn it back on before giving it to me. I had to call them, then drive 30 minutes one way, just so a rude employee could flip the switch back on. This felt like a complete waste of my time and showed zero respect for the customer. Their attitude was arrogant, dismissive, and unprofessional. I honestly believe they were trying to push an unnecessary and expensive repair. I do not trust this shop and strongly advise others to stay away.

A lot of customers get it to go. The place is pretty small so there's limited room for hanging out and stuff. Coffee is actually the best stuff to get here. It's got a limited food menu. There's mostly just crepes to eat, of which there's a few on the menu, or you can build your own with fillings and toppings. A limited amount to get. It's about $5.75 to get a latte. Pretty basic stuff. Has non dairy milks including oat. The food options are pretty light stuff. It's about $13 to get crepes. The Crepes have options such as blueberry if wanting to get it sweet. Also they have a few savory ones. The prices are pretty high for these. Only bad thing about it. The rest of the menu includes cookies and pastries. Great place for a light breakfast. It's closed Mondays. The atmosphere is pretty boring but whatever.

Upon entering on a Sunday afternoon, it was quiet, the music was nice and the staff was on par with their service. I was serviced with smiles and generosity. The two women helped me pick the perfect pastry to go along side my lavender chai latte and regular chai latte, which was a gluten free vegan Ube muffin topped with cinnamon sugar. They warm the pastry up for me which definitely made it better. I maybe spent $15 for two drinks and a pastry which was phenomenal considering other places would have been higher in price. I'll definitely be returning to try other pastries and enjoy the large space the cafe has.

Usually specialty drinks can be expensive in nice coffee shops like this, but it only came out to a bit over 5 dollars. It was so amazing, sweet without being too sweet, and the perfect ube flavor for someone relatively uninitiated with the purple root. It also came out super quick, I could see them working on it while I finished ordering! The employees are all very kind, one of them complimented my wallet and I love compliments so it just set the tone for a great day. I got a seat by the window. There is plenty of natural light in here and plenty of great vibes. About 7 tables in the main area, a couch, and a big table in a room towards the back. Also, a big mural and lots of plants. Really fun and artsy environment. They were selling t-shits and merch which all looked cool and had nice designs. Once I become a regular here (which I now intend on!) I think I will definitely have to get a shirt or hoodie. I noticed there aren't many reviews yet for here which leads me to believe it is not as popular as it deserves to be. But guys, you gotta come, or you're missing out!

The prices are okay for a local place. Basic looking with a counter to order at. It's certainly a popular place judging by crowds. The coffee is the main thing. A lot of cold and hot choices. Frozen things also like milkshakes. Lots of flavors of these. It's $4.75 to get a Latte. Refreshing. Has a few non dairy milk choices including coconut. It's about $10 for Avocado Toast. Basic looking but can add an egg. This already costs too much so piss off. As for the rest of the menu it's meaty especially with bacon. They also have chicken and fish options. For sure it's a great place for light meals. It's open at breakfast and lunch and there's a pretty great variety. This is located on Irving Park at Walnut.

Over the past two years, I'd stop in while out on walks and kept trying different drinks, but I never really found one I loved. That completely changed when I tried their homemade banana bread syrup. It was phenomenal--so much better than the typical flavored syrups and actually tasted natural and delicious. It's definitely made me want to give their specialty drinks another chance! Their food has always been a highlight. The sandwiches are consistently good and feel like a reliable choice whenever I stop in. The ice cream shakes, on the other hand, taste a little too artificial for my preference. Overall, I'm glad I gave Fulla Beans another try. The banana bread latte was a standout, and I'll definitely be back for it!

At one point, he and I even made direct eye contact, yet he still did not come over or check on us. After nearly 20 minutes of being ignored, we finally decided to leave. I was genuinely disappointed, particularly because this was supposed to be the beginning of my birthday celebration and the menu looked fantastic. Unfortunately, I can't comment on the food because we were never given the opportunity to order.

A simple, "I'll be with you shortly," would have made an enormous difference. Unfortunately, the experience left us feeling unwelcome, and because of that, we won't be returning.
