This place is a GEM! We weren't planning on going here, but the restaurant we wanted to go to had no seating. What a happy accident!! A complete menu with breakfast, lunch, and dinner options. Our party had four different items (cheeseburger, pork chop, meatloaf, and chicken pot pie) and it was all delicious! Great portions very reasonably priced, incredible service, and a great atmosphere. Even the owner checked on us several times. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! read more

Service was quick. Lots of seating for a weekday dinner with 3 friends but I could see how busy it can be on a weekend brunch. They close earlier than most places - 8pm. I ordered a burger with fries. Both items were on the saltier side. They have a big menu soI would possibly give it a try for breakfast or lunch. read more

Not the friendliest bunch of employees. Door wasn't held open after we entered right behind a tall black male employee. Hesitantly welcomed by staff. Got the pot pie to go. At that time realized there's no crust at the bottom! That's like a sandwich with no bread! Decently seasoned. 6/7 out of ten. Street parking available. Indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Very nice breakfast or lunch spot. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The food was good and the prices are reasonable. The atmosphere was pleasant. It's a typical brunch spot. It's only open till mid afternoon. read more

Had to review again. What a delight to return and try a new dish off the menu. The food is so good and portions are generous. The servers and crew are amazing. The restaurant is decorated beautifully. Very busy on a Sunday which is great for the business. There are plenty of menu items. Everyone will be satisfied. read more

Very friendly staff and a nice family-esque diner. Packed on the weekend for brunch, but worth the wait! The French toast was perfectly fluffy and exactly what I was looking for. read more

This place was crowded on a Saturday morning but luckily we had a reservation. I ordered the Abuelita Skillet and it was so good. Best brunch food I have had in a long time. We also upgraded our pancakes to the lemon berry pancakes and they were delicious. read more

Worth the wait for Sunday brunch. The owner offered us some free coffee while we waited outside and enjoyed the autumn sunshine. Our meals were prepared quickly and our sever was spot on with our requests and water glasses. Busy, cheerful, and bright dining room to enjoy a cozy meal. For sure on the list to return. Enjoy! Pumpkin pancakes were a unique option and went with the mascarpone butter paring well. Don't forget the fries in beef tallow. Crispy and delicious. read more

I arrived there with a friend to which they seemed to be serving breakfast even at 3-4. The place was very cute and they had small bouquets everywhere on the tables. I got a croissant sandwich with hashbrowns. At first I was worried about the price since it was almost 20 dollars. However the sandwich was huge and I didn't even realize it came with hashbrowns. The food tasted delicous and while I didn't taste my friends omelette I do taste her French toast and it was amazing with definitely get that next time. The waiter and the manager were very nice, all in all I'd rate it a 4.75 read more

Extremely cute little place, came in spontaneously and was glad I did. Corned beef hash was SO good, and the pancake on the side finished it up right. Service was attentive without being in the way. I'll be back to try their burgers! read more

Looked up the place and saw the reviews were killer and decided to go my partner. Food was delicious, generous, service was perfect, juice tasted hella freshly squeezed. read more

We just had oatmeal. Could have given a bigger serving. It wasn't even 1/2 a cup. I know my husband was probably starving ! Service was great. Friendly and attentive read more

A north side friend introduced this South Looper to the Cornerstone Cafe now the Lincoln Park Corner Kitchen several years ago. It has become my "go to" spot when I'm in the area. It has the excellent combination of a tasty, satisfying food, a menu with good variety, a cheerful environment and a staff well attuned to customer service read more

Winter for some breakfast absolutely delicious. I recommend. Service was great. Everything was good.

Solid 4 stars. The food quality is excellent for the price. Portions are generous and everything tasted fresh. The menu is a bit limited, but what they do have, they cook perfectly. A great local find read more

This place pleasantly surprised us from the very first minutes. Everything here is unobtrusively cozy: from the atmosphere to the way the dishes are served. The place is small, but it feels orderly -- nothing distracts you, but instead adds to the comfort. We chose several dishes from the lunch menu -- each had its own character, and the balance of flavors was well maintained. Attention to detail is evident, from the presentation to the texture. Everything was prepared without haste, but also without delay.It is especially pleasant that the staff works calmly and harmoniously -- without unnecessary fuss, but attentively. It seems that they are not just serving, but truly caring about the experience of everyone who comes in.I plan to return and try other items on the menu. This is exactly the case when you want to start with your favorite, but curiosity about the rest prevails. read more

Deceptive menu prices. The old woman at the register (Tish) was rude, yelling and not willing to address the issues or answer questions. Cup of coffee price was $5.50! NOT shown on the menu. Only on the bill! Sandwiches very skimpy with hardly any fries. No wonder the joint was empty during the entire lunch hour. Get rid of that woman she does not belong in the hospitality business. read more

If you want to be told you'll be seated in 15 min and wait over an hour then come here (we had 2 people). Service was also terrible... had to ask for silverware, coffee refills and our food (pancakes and a skillet) also took an hour. When we got the food I had a tiny stack of pancakes with NO flavor that cost $18. Very disappointed we spent hours of our Sunday just to get breakfast here. read more

Five stars cause I liked the staff so much! I got the chicken pot pie and it was a good choice.

The restaurant is very welcoming. Our server was hospitable and professional. I dined with a person who has Celiac (autoimmune can't eat anything or get cross contamination with wheat) and who was recently diagnosed severely lactose intolerant, allergic to soy, and allergic to eggs. Instead of being frustrated, our server went to the kitchen a few times to talk with the chef. They were able to serve their chili with a side, and the rest of us ordered. We thanked our server and chef. The response was they wanted the person dining with me to feel comfortable and welcome. On top of that, all of us thought our food was delicious. It goes without saying that we will be back. As much as I very much enjoyed my omelette, I want to try one of their dinners. read more

Wide variety of good food and Julius Meinl coffee. Nice owners and employees. Convenient hours.

Such a cozy and friendly place! The staff were so kind and the coffee was perfect. It's the ideal spot to relax and read a book

First timer at LP Corner Kitchen. Had lunch and it was very good We had a wrap and one of the panini's. Both were good, service was attentive but we saw some of the breakfast items and we need to go back to try those. Great little spot... recommend. I'll update once I get there for some breakfast read more

We have been going to Lincoln Park Corner Kitchen (formerly known as Cornerstone Cafe) for a number of years. The food -- whether breakfast, lunch or dinner -- is always great: freshly made, generous portions, and reasonably priced. What makes it particularly special is that it is family-owned and the wait staff are always friendly and attentive. Highly recommended. read more

The staff were all welcoming and the service was fast. The food at lunch was delicious!!

The service, food and prices were all very good. I had the bone-in-pork chop and it was very tasty. My friend had the chicken pot pie and said it was a little spicy for him but still very good. We felt the ambiance was a bit cold with super high ceilings and a lot of white. I do plan on going back. read more

This place is great!!!!! This was my first visit and I am not a regular customer!!!!! I actually met Marty Matheson outside while he was here filming for "The Bear"! Very family friendly vibe and very clean and the food is amazing. read more

Exactly the kind of place we've been looking for! Great food, beautiful dining area, and a menu with all the diner fixins you could want. Today we were here for breakfast. Corned beed hash, eggs, pancakes... everything done with perfection. This will be a regular spot for us. Even for a gastronomical juggernaut like Chicago this place stands out. I'll be back for that burger. Then the gyro plate. Hard to beat a well-run family-owned establishment especially when owners love the biz they are in. Happy employees, happy guests, great experience. read more

The place is convenient, fairly priced and has nice staff. Some of the patrons are questionable but overall the vibes are good here. Thank you Maria. read more

This place was GREAT! From the wait staff, to the food amazing service! Upon entering you are greeted by a happy, helpful woman who gets you seated immediately! The room was well decorated and comfortable! The waiter approached us immediately and was just the right mix of help and distance to make our choices! Everyone there gave off a very positive welcoming vibe! My wife and I ordered after peppering our waiter with some questions! I had a southwest omelette with a side of corned beef hash! The omelette was perfectly cooked and the taste was spot on! Just the right amount of flavor! The corned beef was great! Real pieces of corned beef (big enough to enhance the taste) on a bed of hash browns. Again cooked perfectly! No rush involved which today is a great feeling! We could let our meal sit and enjoy! But as usual be mindful of the server and the table as to not overstay! Never felt rushed! I give LPCK an enthusiastic 5 stars! Great place! read more

amazing food! great service! and an amazing vibe. we're from Indiana and visiting for the day and I couldn't be happier with the food. great way to end the trip! read more

I've been living in this neighborhood for over 20 years and we've been waiting for a restaurant like this. It's the best we can all get what we want. (hamburgers to salads to omelettes) and the food is always great. The service is friendly and consistent. I highly recommend the endless summer salad. read more

Excellent food & service. Dined mid-week. My husband ordered the tuna melt which had high quality tuna. I enjoyed 2 poached eggs (that were excellently prepared) w/toast and a smoothie made with apples, pineapple, ginger and other healthy ingredients. Sure, our selections were standard, but the preparation was "top drawer." Our server was the perfect blend of friendly without hovering. I was impressed with her knowledge of the food prep. The restaurant's dining area is cheerful, can I say "nicely appointed" without sounding uppity? Well, I just did. It was nice being in a place that felt upscale. read more

Delish food all around, generous portions and very reasonable prices, maybe the tastiest Biscuits and perfectly seasoned gravy i've had in quite some time. not quite sure how they managed to make their biscuits with just a hint of crunch on the bottom yet keeping the biscuits light and fluffy. will definitely return on my next return to Chicago read more

We only got drinks here, the decor is lovely and staff are nice, but my smoothie was not the best, and certainly not worth the ridiculous $12 price point. read more

The flavors are simple yet satisfying. Staff take care to ensure guests are happy. The room is spacious and easy to move around. It adds comfort to the visit. The service pace is steady without long waits. It feels worth returning to. read more

Everything is always great! Family run business and fresh food-service is outstanding.

Good and service are always good. I missed this place all the months they were remodeling. It made us so happy when they reopened with the same menu! read more

Food was delicious and reasonable. Service was also great. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

very yummy! great service and good food, came after the marathon and they were also able to accommodate my brother's allergies (dairy, egg, and tree) read more
