    We made a reservation for a party of six . My experience was smooth right from the start. The staff was welcoming, attentive, and handled our group comfortably without any rush. We ordered a good variety of dishes, including avocado toast, veg Benedict, a vegetable skillet, blueberry pancakes, and coffee. Everything arrived fresh and well-presented. The avocado toast was nicely balanced and flavorful, the veg Benedict was satisfying and cooked just right, and the vegetable skillet was well cooked as ordered. The blueberry pancakes were soft, fluffy, and lightly sweet--definitely a highlight of the meal. The coffee was fresh and complemented the food well. The café itself was neat, clean, and well decorated for Christmas , which made the overall dining experience even more pleasant. Service was good and the staff checked in regularly while giving us enough space to enjoy our meal. Overall, everything was good--from the food and coffee to the service and cleanliness. Highly recommended for a comfortable and enjoyable meal.

    Reservation system sucks. No one at reception desk speaks English m. They're aware of the problem., but don't seem willing to act on it.

    This was a mixed experience. We'd been to Mr. Breakfast several times before always walking away…read morefeeling good about our experience. This time was different. It was rather crowded when we first arrived, but we were seated right away. We had no silverware setups and assumed they would bring them before our meals. There were four of us - each ordered something different. Two of us had skillets, one an omelet, and I ordered a club sandwich. While the food was very good, nothing was right on the order. Pancakes were delivered as sides rather than biscuits, a diet code with ice was delivered instead of a regular coke with no ice, the club sandwich came as a wrap, my regular fries came our as sweet potato fries, no silverware was delivered and we had to get up to get it ourselves, and there was more. We did receive apologizes and, for the most part, the mistakes were corrected. This could all have been solved if our waiter wrote down the order rather than thinking he could recall everything. I'm still giving them four stars even though the service was not up to expectations. The food quality is still very good, and when the mistakes were corrected, we were very happy with our meals. The portion sizes are large, and the food is quite good. So, I'll chalk this up as a series of mishaps and I don't expect we'll have the same experience next time.

I was venturing to this area for an errand and saw their amazing yelp review score and figured I'd stop in to try. Their biscuits and gravy comes with one large biscuit, a very savory sausage gravy sauce, and a side of housemade hashbrowns. Adding two eggs is only $1 more and they also had premium versions with fried chicken or country fried steak. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the meals and thought the pricing was very reasonable. Their menu had a wide variety of items so that there's something for everyone!

However, I'd join when you are 10 minutes away as sometimes the line goes quick and you get passed. After we are called for our seats, we wait in a small line as they prep the table. After we were seated, the staff quickly gave us water as we looked over the menu. I was not in the mood for a fancy breakfast so I went traditional, Two Eggs over medium, veggie patties (homemade), hash browns and pancakes with decaffeinated coffee with honey. The food came in a nice time, not too long and not too quick- enough to have a nice conversation while waiting. When the food came, everything was cooked to perfection. The eggs over medium, the hash browns were cooked and had that bit of crunch from the skillet. Pancakes were a nice size. And the veggie patties were tasty! The coffee with just honey hit the spot. It appears everyone else really liked their food as it was pretty quiet. Lol. I enjoy this place especially bringing family and friends from out of town. Good times and great memories.

    Schaumburg location losing good people because of management at this location that is…read moredysfunctional, confused and lacks any type of meaningful people skills. Management seems more concerned with holding a door open instead of listening to their own employees as they leave this location one right after another. The district manager appears to be clueless. While corporate executives often point to macroeconomic headwinds or shifting consumer spending to explain falling stock price numbers, the internal reality is that operational efficiency is eroding. When a company prioritizes short-term labor cost cuts over employee retention, it creates an illusion of profitability that eventually shatters. The high cost of constant turnover - including recruitment, onboarding, and the hidden cost of lost sales from slow service - directly eats into margins. Investors recognize that a restaurant concept cannot expand successfully if its core units are bleeding their best workers due to poor frontline leadership. The Takeaway: First Watch cannot fix its stock price until it fixes its floors. If corporate leadership wants to restore investor confidence and stabilize $FWRG, they must reinvest in their people and remembering that the guest experience is entirely dependent on the employee experience.

Chappie's was a random pick for us to go have brunch at while we were in the Palatine area. Chappie's had been on my list of brunch restaurants to check out. When we got to the restaurant it was peak lunch time and the restaurant was almost 3/4 full. We got seated promptly. We took our time to look at their menu and decide as they had a good menu variety. We ordered drinks in the meantime. I got a regular coffee and a Chappieccino (cappuccino w/ Chappie's face, Chappie being their family dog, a Corgie). We ordered a Bacado Omelet w/ a side of pumpkin spice pancakes instead of regular pancakes and hashbrowns, a Huevos Rancheros, and a special of 2 Eggs x 2 Pancakes x 2 Sausage links (instead of bacon). I had the Bacado Omelet which had bacon, avocado, scallions, cheese, and I asked for chopped jalapeños which did not have an up charge. The omelet was good. I liked the way it was cooked. The hash browns were cooked to perfection. They were exactly the way I like them, crispy and soft. They also have me a fried green chili pepper (Chile Toreado) on the side which added a nice spicy taste. The specialty pumpkin spice pancakes with pumpkin puree whipped cream was really delicious. I loved its taste. The Huevos Rancheros was the best dish at the table. It was perfectly cooked with two fried corn tortillas, eggs over easy, fried beans, red salsa, and cheese. It tasted great. I liked it more than my dish. The special of 2 Eggs x 2 Pancakes x 2 sausage links was tasty as well. We had a good experience and would go back. Definitely recommended. Check it out.
