If you're looking for a great breakfast spot in the Bronzeville area this is the place for you. The food is amazing, and the staff is very kind and helpful. I also like the classic diner feel you get once you walk inside. We ordered the chicken thighs, grits, and the biscuits & gravy. Everything was a 10/10 but my favorite is definitely the biscuits & gravy. Instead of the traditional way of using pork they used chicken with a house made recipe that will keep you wanting more and more. read more

Peach's Restaurant - American Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Tam and Trillis forgive the spelling Tam was an amazing champion for our first experience, of Peaches as it was our first time. She recommended the dark roast coffee first off. Excellent recommendation, you smelled the brew before it arrived fully at the table. Stating that the coffee was on point would minimize the cup's perfection!!! Now to the food OMG!!! First DUCK BACON excellent I don't eat pork except bacon. Yes, I'm on the team that bacon is not pork LOL!!! The duck back to was good. I couldn't taste the difference. I hate turkey bacon, EVERY TIME Ive tried turkey bacon, it was tasteless and expensive. The duck bacon was lean and tasty. I highly recommend trying it. Second for me is the biscuit. The biscuit was so good, I sat long enough to know I needed to take one home. I had the catfish, grits and greens. Everything delicious. The catfish was mouth watering. My friend had the peaches' special. First of all, those potatoes called my name!! Delicious. The icing on the cake was the Chef's visit. Trellis or Trillis, I'm from the country, so that's what I heard!! He visited our table, and we shared our delight in the well-prepared meals. It's evident that the meals were prepared with love and care. Everyone at the restaurant was pleasant. The staff were all professional and taking care of business. The space is open you don't feel as if you are seated with a neighboring table. It was bright and well lit. We had an amazing experience. I highly recommend! The portions are generous. I had lots of extras do I have dinner for tonight. When you visit, let them know I said Hi!!! Yes, Im going back so others have an opportunity to experience; great food, excellent service and phenomenal space!!! read more

One of the best restaurants I've been too in a min. Starbucks snob here. The peach infused coffee was worth every drop. No cream needed. The initial host was interesting but warmed up eventually. The servers were PHENOMENAL!...I'm not exaggerating. Dont give that out very much. She was excellent with her recommendations as well as sending backup if she was not able. And her backup was ALSO great as well. The decorum is simple. My brothers and I sat in a nice booth. I'm glad cuz they put all their effort into their food. Enjoyed the Bayou breakfast bowl. Different. And also worth every bite. My guys all enjoyed their meals as well. read more

Unlike President Obama I do not think this is a ravingly delicious must try restaurant, BUT the eclectic menu, STUNNINGLY GOOD DUCK BACON, attentive service and warm though a bit dated atmosphere, make this restaurant a place to try. I recommend the Breakfast Bowl: Potatoes, green peppers, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, scallions, & cheddar cheese with your choice of egg. Add a side of Duck Bacon; trust me you should try this dish! read more

On Sundays after Church we do brunch! After church we decided to stop here and try it out as it has been on my list for a while. When we walked in we were greeted and was told it would be a wait which was fine with us. The ambiance gave diner vibes and I was excited to try the food. When we sat down we took a look at the menu and decided on what to eat. We ordered and it took almost an hour to get our food for it to be cold even though our waitress kept telling us our food was almost ready. We ordered the Peach's Special with Crispy Bacon, Yardbird & Sweet Toast with all wings, Shrimp & Sauce and Side of Cheese Grits, Strawberry Lemonade, and Coke. The Potatoes were very good. I asked for the Bacon to be crispy but it wasn't. The French toast was okay but the wings were bland and had no flavor. I mixed the Shrimp and the grits together and it was okay but not the best. Overall it wasn't the best meal I had and all the food was cold. The price was kind of expensive and overall I wouldn't be back as the food wasn't the greatest. read more

When I asked my mom what she thought of Peach's, she didn't hesitate "10/10." She had woken up craving grits, and after a bit of research, I chose Peach's as the spot for us during our annual mother + daughter trip. We arrived shortly after opening and only waited about five minutes, as there was a couple ahead of us placing a to-go order. Once they were finished, we were greeted warmly, and a gentleman at the bar even walked over to welcome us and show us to our seats. He was kind, friendly, and seemed genuinely excited to have us there. The restaurant itself was clean and well-kept. Our server, Tamarra, was outstanding personable, knowledgeable about the menu, and truly happy to be helping us. We ordered the Peach's Special: two eggs with chicken sausage, grits, and pancakes. Our food came out quickly, piping hot, and absolutely delicious. I also tried their peach coffee, which was unique and so good that I plan to order some online. Overall, Peach's delivered on every level: great food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere. (And yes! we did ask about Obama!) read more

The place is spacious with bright colors. The service was good and our waiter was attentive to our needs. We were able to get seated right away. I got the duck bowl. It was highlighted on the menu as one of the favorites and I wanted to try it since it had duck bacon and I never had it before. In my mind, I thought it would be long strips of bacon. But when I received my dish, I only saw a mound of potatoes with a scrambled egg on top. I had to dig all the way to the bottom of the bowl to only find very tiny bits of duck bacon. It looked and tasted like ham. I also asked for spinach too, but I only got a tiny bit of it. I basically paid $24 (with tax and tip) for mostly a bowl of potatoes. read more

Most nastiest pancakes I ever had literally tasted like water the grits was bland and the fried chicken tasted like cat fish and dirty oil my 5 year old could have cooked better and I paid $6 for sugar water aka strawberry lemonade wouldn't recommend going and for the price is diabolical read more

Visiting from New Orleans! I was brought here by a local and appreciated the personality of the place. Service was super slow and it seemed like the owner had to come out and help as a few waiters were in training, but overall the experience was good. Good music and wasn't too busy. We ordered the bayou bowl and the catfish eggs and grits. Highlight was the catfish for me, once I requested it to be fried hard. Don't mind returning! read more

Despite them stating on their social media profile that they take reservations (for large parties only) they in fact DO NOT honor said reservations. I made a reservation for a group of 10 three days before our planned visit. We arrive 15 minutes before our "reservation" and we're told that despite our large party having a "reservation" it's still first come first served. So because there were two large parties that were waiting ahead of our arrival, we had to wait over an hour to be seated. So while the server was extremely nice and attentive, and the food was good it was just an okay experience for my party. I strongly suggest that you remove " reservations now open" from your profile and don't accept reservations via phone that won't be honored. read more

So great and friendly. My father was so excited about the peach bourbon French toast and alligator sausage. The biscuits are buttery and flaky and the chicken sausage patties homemade and delicious. The best part was the charming service. read more

I called in an order for pickup during my lunch break and when I got to the restaurant, I decided to dine in as I had enough time and maybe wanted coffee and dessert. When I requested seating, the hostess told me that her wait staff depends on tips and I already have my order and to seat me would be problematic. Please note: there was plenty of seats available. I informed the hostess that anytime a costumer wants to sit in your establishment it is a good thing. After my order arrived the hostess begrudgingly offered me a seat as if she was doing me a favor. I politely declined. As a man that grew up in the Bronzeville community, I was offended because I know that if I was a different race, I would not have been treated like that. read more

I saw Peach's featured on the news, so I've been interested in trying them for a while. I wanted more from this black-owned business in Hyde Park. I understand Peach's is a diner, so my expectations were a little laxer, but I gotta say... it was a mediocre experience. We arrived at 8:50a. It was a slow Wednesday morning, and we were seated immediately. Our food was out by 9:10a. Pros: - They have MANY peach-flavored items, including coffee! (Peach-flavored coffee sounds like a stomach ache. Haha! Just my opinion.) We went with regular black coffee! Lol! - There's hot sauce on each table! Cons: - No salt/pepper shakers on the table (they use packets). - The music is a bit too loud for my liking. If they had a full house, we would've been yelling. I get it; It's a diner. No one did anything wrong. My server was fine. My food was fine. Honestly, it was fine. And that's why I'm giving it 3 stars. MANY would love this straightforward no nonsense diner's approach. However, I didn't have or experience anything that will bring me back. read more

I live in Bronzeville so it's really nice to have a neighborhood restaurant with such great food and kind staff. Peach's isn't lying - their shrimp and grits really is some of the best I've had! Love supporting local spots! read more

I've been hearing about this place for years and finally made my way there last week. I figured I would go around 1pm to beat the weekend crowd. It's cute inside. However, after waiting for over an hour for our food, then when we finally got it, it was terrible!! Even though they comped our meal, I felt it was bland and basic. I may give them another chance one day' read more

Nothing but great service and great food! Extremely friendly and attentive staff, even gave us lemonade for the wait!!! Very laid back ambiance with some good music playing while you eat. Would come again! read more

This was one of those long overdue jaunts. The salmon croquettes with cheese grits took me back to Mississippi. The biscuits with chicken gravy made me not forget that I am from Mississippi. I have had salmon croquettes at several restaurants that made me give up on ever ordering them. Peach's got em right. And the biscuits. No joke. They were airy, not baked bricks. Washed it all down with a glass of strawberry lemonade. Outstanding service from entering to being seated to being served. Perhaps it's because I got there as soon as they opened, well before crowds and what-not started coming in. I will be back. My server even said so. read more

This is an update to my last review of Peaches. I never review to harm; I only wanna see businesses grow and make better choices for their customers and overall company. I fell in love with Peach's when they were gaining momentum, and I believe they have the potential to get back there with a committed staff and influential cooks. I am happy to say after suggesting checking out Peach again, the meal and experience were a lot better. It wasn't too long of a wait. My family and I sat at the bar to avoid the 30 min wait, and we were waited on right away. I got my usual French toast and chicken; however, the wings were replaced with boneless chicken breast, which I wasn't expecting or excited about but was seasoned well and good. The food came out as cooked and wasn't long of a wait. My sister got the Salmon Croquettes & Grits and a Happy Biscuit which is always a joy. The peach coffee is still one of my favorites in this city. The wait staff was amicable and attentive, which helped the overall experience. This was a better experience, but I can feel the budget cuts. I want Peach to succeed, and I believe they have a chance if they continue to push out quality experiences. It's not just about the food but how you make people feel. My favorite restaurant, five loaves, shut down over the pandemic, and they were a tiny hole-in-the-wall restaurant with so much love put into the people and food. I'd wait an hour to experience that. Peach had that energy, and I hope they continue to pursue that. 3 of 5 read more

The food was simply delicious, I guess I would say it was well with the wait. The atmosphere was very bright and airy, with bright happy colors throughout the restaurant. The service was terrible!!!! I would say it took us about a good 45 mins (sitting at the bar) to receive our order. Oh and they didn't bring our food out all at once, they brought my guest food first and my food about 3 mins later. I would go back again but would probably just order my food to go. You've gotta try the coffee here, it's very good. read more

The food is bland and it's actually nasty. Fish not crispy no taste. The spicy honey sauce is terrible. Just go chicken waffle this place

O.M.G I love this place. I came here to support a local business on Juneteenth. This place was comfy with a southern hospitality. I was greeted with warm smiles when I walked inside. I was a little hesitate at first but the host Monquette ease my feelings. I was seated by the window that gave me a nice view of the outside. I'm not a Big fan of anything peachy but let me tell you. The Peach Palmer is the bomb. She let me sample a taste and I was pleased with it. I ordered the catfish, greens, grits and pancakes. Everything was delicious and seasoned with some good flavors. Monquette was Superb her interaction with the guest were top notch. She was attentive to each person and made sure we were ok. I look forward to coming back again for some more southern food. read more

The food was always good. I would get the peach palmer. Just a good breakfast but it always hit the spot! Makes me miss Chicago!

Conveniently located in the community, on the corner with easy street parking. I love the big bright windows and old school stove. Lots of great menu options. We will be back! read more

Disgusting! And I use to frequent this place often, at least weekly when it initially opened. BLAND GREASY DISGUSTING Food. I had the duck bacon and Soul Queen Omelette. My daughter the Jambalaya (Looked as if it was heated up from last night!) She thought it disgusting as well! Talked to the manager, insisted on "remaking " the food with the SAME COOK back there? Just didn't want to take it off the bill. I'm a Nurse- don't need a "hookup" -just wanted a GREAT breakfast with my daughter and granddaughter. We should have just gone somewhere else. They live downtown. But wanted to go to an African American restaurant. Sorry I did! They will never get another dime from me! read more

Great customer service. The hostess was exceptional. I went there for lunch and I ordered the fried chicken wings. I sent them back because they had too much hair (feathers, whatever) on them and they were too light. After getting them home, they must have used chickens that were 2 weeks old because those wings were tiny. That wasn't as upsetting as the taste. They were bland, and seemed to be seasoningless! (My own word) Then onto the breakfast bowl...it tasted good, to be fair, but it was 80% potatoes, 10% grease and 10% all the other ingredients like spinach, eggs, etc. Of course I'm exaggerating, but that's how it tasted. They gave me a good portion though. Would I go again? I don't know, but if I did, I'd stay away from the baby chicken wings. read more

We were sat down pretty quickly with our party of 7. The food was okay. I had Omelette, Oatmeal and Peach Compote, Salmon Croquettes. My son had the hangover wings and fries. The oatmeal and peach compote had no flavor, it wasn't sweet. They could have added sugar and cinnamon to that. The salmon croquettes were amazing and that sauce it came with, so good. My son liked his hangover wings. The service was good. The kids that worked there are very respectful. read more
