    I wish I could give 3.5 stars. 3 is average, and not a horrible rating. I couldn't give it a 4 or 5 for 2 main reasons: some of our food was served just lukewarm, and the sweet potatoes in the Home Sweet Home weren't fully cooked. But the portions were huge!!! They do offer "small plates" but I thought that would be too small. Well- large was super large! Everything but the home sweet home was delicious! That dish just feels flat, even if the sweet potatoes had been cooked all the way. It was a busy Saturday morning, server was pretty attentive. Place was clean and brightly lit.

    After a night of drinking from a local brewery, I wanted a "healthy" plate of food to fill up my belly. Syrup hit all the notes and it also had a lot of positive reviews. After looking at the menu, I saw Biscuits and Gravy, Country fried chicken and Chilaquiles. My tummy decided the latter option to be the best. The location was easy to find. Parking lot was pretty big. And despite opening an hour ago, the spot was filling up quickly on a cold Sunday morning. My wife and I went inside and we were seated and greeting right away. Sea Salt caramel Frappe caught my eye. And my wife got the SmOreo. They arrived quickly and in big glasses For breakfast, my chilaquiles came with two eggs, chorizo, black beans and breakfast potato's. The potatoes were salted perfectly and had a nice crispy edge which I rarely find in restaurants. The chorizo was flavorful and not oily at all. The chilaquiles were amazing! I decided to treat myself to a side of their billionaire bacon. It was thick cut bacon with brown sugar and spiced perfectly. It was not spicy at all but just spiced. A wonderful balance of flavors. The restaurant had a lot of seating available. But I can see why there was a big waiting list when I left. Our server was amazing. Overall, I am a huge fan of Syrup. I am glad we checked this location out. And I am glad to hear there are two more locations which are near me. I will be back to this restaurant... it is my new favorite breakfast restaurant now!

    Breakfast skillet and latte - look at that portion size!

    First visit today and WOW! Large menu with so many fun options! Huge variety of Alcohol and coffee drinks - fun! I had a steel cut oatmeal bowl with all sorts of fruit, granola and honey. Friend had a breakfast skillet and a latte with the hugest portions ever! Take home bags were a must. Really good place with wonderful service! I will be back!

    The wait was a bit long because there were a lot of people there on a Sunday. But it was cute on the inside. It felt a little farmhouse-like. Our waitress was very attentive once we got our seats. The food was pretty good. I liked that they had homemade jam as compared to those little jam packets you get at a lot of breakfast places.

    Breakfast here has consistently been good. The potion sizes are generous and the service is solid. Everyone enjoyed their food. I never hesitate when going to Syrup is suggested.

    Classic egg breakfast

    The wait time and hostess area was overcrowded. The initial girl took my number to text me, then they were announcing (yelling) out the names vs texting? The atmosphere was noisy and cramped. We were seated right off the main waiting area. David, our sever was friendly initially however once our food appeared he disappeared. The blueberry pancakes were too thick and chewy. The classic egg breakfast was below average. The turkey bacon was undercooked as well as the potatoes. We had wanted to try this new place hoping for a good experience...

    This was my first time I went here even though it was my sister birthday . The service was really nice. the food was good. It was clean. It was busy with full people and next time. I'll come back here. I'll order something different. There were alot of choices on the menu. So I got myself a burger with waffle fries that were really good.

    Legendary Breakfast with crepes!

    4th of July at 8:00am. Service is always good, friendly and consistent. Food is plentiful and well prepared. The different type of "Syrups" make this place unique.

    I'd been wanting to try SYRUP since moving to the area, and it definitely lived up to the hype! Like most popular breakfast spots on the weekend, it was packed, and we had about a 30-minute wait, just as they told us. After we got seated, it took a little while (10-15 mins) for water and menus, which was probably the only downside since we already knew what we wanted to order. The decor here is super cute, bright, and modern--perfect for a fun breakfast vibe! They also have plenty of seating to handle all kinds of group sizes, which is great. Our waitress was super sweet and had some great recommendations. My boyfriend was set on a blackberry limeade, but she suggested the lavender version, and it was SO good. I got the Cluck Cluck Skillet because the chorizo gravy sounded too good to pass up, and it didn't disappoint! The skillet was delicious, though they really load it up with potatoes--probably a bit more than I could handle. But overall, great food and huge portions for what you pay. I'd totally come back for the skillet. SYRUP's a great spot if you're craving a solid breakfast with an awesome atmosphere!

    Whether looking for a traditional breakfast or something unique and delicious, this is the place to be. The mini waffle flight is incredible and the Mediterranean Avocado Toast was memorable.service was good and vibe is inviting.

    My granddaughter has a egg food allergy. I had to return something because of the possibility it could have had egg in it. Our waitress was wonderful! Was not bothered, suggested something different & brought it back with a huge smile on her face!

    This was the veggie omelette.It looked a little dry but dad seemed to like it.This is also with a side of cottage cheese.

    Honestly Conscious Cup roasts are the best in McHenry County but I'm giving this site a low score…read morefor quality. The other sites are consistently better. I often notice this site will have fewer people behind the counter even though they run a drive thru. Its consistency is poor at best for dine in but the recipes are generally there and fine for drive thru but if I'm going to sit... I'd recommend Barrington or any of their other sites with better baristas that aren't competing with the drive thru.. this spot will stay as my drive thru drip coffee on the go though.... But for work meetings I'll stick with Barrington.

    I am a snob. I admit it. The Washington-Oregon I-5 Coffee Zone sets a high bar that the rest of the…read moreUS cannot possibly meet. Sorry-not-sorry, we rule, deal with it. So how did a Seattle or Portland quality coffee shop end up in Crystal Lake? I don't know and I don't care. This place is the real deal. Good product, good baristas, some innovative twists (think ube white chocolate mocha as one of the current specials), this place would perform well up and down the I-5 corridor. They are LGBTQ+ friendly. That's not necessarily common in this area, so kudos to them. Again, a good fit along much of the I-5 corridor. But, of course, I can't take them back home. At least I have a quality coffee stop nearby when visiting family here. Thanks, sis, for introducing me to this place.
