    Eggs Benedict
    Kimberly W.

    If you're staying at the Chase, live nearby, or are going to a matinee at the movie theatre, this is a decent option for brunch. The prices are reasonable considering the area. Service was attentive while also letting us sit and visit. I had the Eggs Benedict, which I thought was tasty. Their hours are limited, so make sure you check the time before you try to stop by.

    Service was prompt at 8am. Service was good. Plenty of seating on a Wednesday. Went with the basic options. Eggs/sausage/potatoes/toast. All were solid but nothing that really stands out. Sausage was flavorful. Average meal. It was fine but won't necessary return for breakfast.

    Peanut butter accompaniment

    Perfect for a fancy date night. You will spend over $100 for 2 people, but it's all worth it. The service is exceptional. The plating is exquisite. The food is divine! Located inside the Chase Park Plaza in the Central West End. Valet parking is free for guests of the restaurant. The hostess will validate your parking. Here's everything we ordered: Pretzel Croissants with peach bourbon jam & house made chive cream cheese Deconstructed Lobster Salad with greens grown on site, huge portions of lobster meat + claw, St. Andre cheese, dried apricots, topped with a curry vinaigrette. Jumbo Scallops (4 to an order) with Peruvian potatoes, Jerusalem artichokes, topped with salmon roe House Dry Aged Strip au Poivre with peekytoe crab (the CRAB!) Dessert: Crème Brülée with a passion fruit gel, Madeline cookies, Grand Marnier soaked strawberries, and freeze-dried strawberry crumbles Peanut Butter Accompaniment with layers of chocolate and peanut butter mousse, topped with chocolate pieces and peanut brittle The Bixby (Limoncello + Hendrix) named after the owner of a mansion on the land that is now the Chase. The Steeple Chase (Vodka+ Crème de Cassis) named after the area in the Chase where you'd park your horse while you checked into the hotel.

    Came for Easter brunch with the family and loved it! We normally are at a different hotel for our annual Easter brunch but this year I booked too late and found space at The Preston and was absolutely blown away! They have amazing appetizers including tuna tartare, they had an oyster bar, everyone gets an a la carte main, the dessert tables are to die for and the mimosas are bottomless! Would definitely come back next year- price for the Easter Brunch was more than reasonable!

    Avocado toast

    We had brunch at The Preston the other day inside of the Chase Park Plaza. From the time you walk in everything is super charming and tasteful. You can tell it is an old building but it still sparkles and is endearing. We had a group of 10 of us and a reservation at 11:30 but did not get sat until 11:45am, which is not atypical for large parties it seems. Our table shared a couple bottles of champagne and my mother in law shared the avocado toast and the eggs meurette. The avocado toast lacked some 'umps' but it was good. The eggs meurette was definitely my favorite. I would have liked a little more of the pork belly but overall the dish was very good. One other perk was that the restaurant was able to validate our valet parking so that was complimentary which was nice.

    We were trying to find a new brunch spot and remembered this restaurant inside the Chase Park Plaza. We got here around 10:30am and the hotel was busy. We waited at the host stand for quite sometime before we were greeted, and then waited for an additional 25 minutes to be seated. They had a small, but great menu to ensure there's something for everyone. We ordered right away and the food came out piping hot! We ordered the Classic, Good morning Preston and the blueberry pancakes. The Good Morning Preston dish was a take on a Croque Monsieur and it was Devine! But I will say the blueberry pancakes is what I remember. They were perfectly fluffy and flavorful. This is a must see place especially if you've never been to the Chase Park Plaza. The inside transports you back to the 40's.

    Spinach and mushroom omelette with cheddar cheese. Mimosa highlights the background!!

    The Preston is inside The Chase Hotel. They have a full bar and a welcoming staff. The food does not disappoint!! The secret star of my cheddar, spinach and mushroom omelette were the potatoes!! The flavor of these potatoes was a meal maker!!

    Impeccable service, food was SO delicious please try the crab cakes, pretzel croissants, and the lamb chops. Ambiance is so aesthetic, perfect for a date night or special celebrations. Thank you!

    Talked my friend into walking over to the Chase Park Plaza for breakfast after the 8am mass at the Cathedral Basilica. The selections on the menu were perfect. I chose the Eggs Benedict and added fruit and potatoes, which surprisingly were not included with my entree (and the reason I deducted one star.) Calm quiet atmosphere, as there were only a couple other diners eating when we arrived. Attentive service and they take Apple pay, thank God, because I left my wallet 0.6 miles away in my car. I will return, but I think for a $17 breakfast entree there should be at least one side included.

    The Easter Brunch exceeded all expectations. Greg, our server, was more perfectly attentive. The food was delicious and plentiful.

    Food was mediocre and the ambiance not great. Hardly anyone in the restaurant and felt like a hotel restaurant - which it is!

    Songbird is the Dolly Parton of St. Louis breakfast: bigger stage, brighter lights, same voice…read more I've followed this operation since it was a sandwich pop-up at the Tower Grove Farmers' Market, through the brick-and-mortar in The Grove, and now into its larger home in Tower Grove South. The quality has not wavered once. I ordered what I always order: The Combo (fried eggs, maplewood smoked bacon, cheese, brioche toast), extra egg, extra bacon. Most kitchens treat a fried egg as binary (runny or ruined). Songbird has mastered the middle register: lacy edges with a yolk that stays glossy and intact right up until the first bite. I ordered them over hard, and they came out a bit closer to over medium, but they were just as good as I wanted them to be. The bacon carries real smoke. This is a decadent sandwich, big enough that half of it would make a light breakfast; I wasn't remotely hungry after one, the second half was indulgent. The service made the move too. The hostess still recognizes returning customers, and the bigger room finally lets the dining experience breathe. The service at the table could have been a little warmer as we've had it the past, but it is still professional. I was there with two close college buddies, one of whom declared his latte excellent. I keep meaning to get adventurous with the menu, but it is genuinely hard to find a bacon, egg, and cheese toasted this perfectly, and I'd go twice in one day if given the opportunity. 4.8 A full five arrives the day when I can arrive first thing on a Saturday without a 30 minute wait, honestly, it's hard to get a reservation here because of its popularity. Good for them. Cheers to you, Songbird. Dolly would be proud

    *Not accessible *Not kid friendly…read more This location has a lot of improvements to be made. The menu is bland and they deter you from making modifications. I wanted my toast's jam to be on the side and they said no. It was a thick tasteless brick without the jam. The items are not as traditional for a breakfast spot, and when I asked the server what they were known for she said the drinks.... They also run a tight turnaround time so they will make you feel uncomfortable when its time to clear your table and pay the bill because they will tell you the next reservation is in 5minutes. The plates were all different and my guest who got a sandwich had her food come out in a plastic fry basket instead of the nicer plates. Odd. As I mentioned earlier, they are not kid friendly as they don't have a kids menu or kid friendly items like fruit and pancakes. We ordered a side of avocado and chicken sausage as those were the safest for us. Also there are no changing tables in the restrooms. Accessibility note: the entrance is a giant multi-slope and 1 turn ramp into a cramped lobby. The men's restroom is the only one on the main floor and female restroom is tucked far in the backroom inaccessible due to a steep step in the back. It is not wheelchair or walker friendly.

We don't like goat cheese so they were able to sub out the goat cheese polenta with cheesy grits. The cheesy grits were so good!! Bistro steak - good but it's not a must have for me. It came with asparagus that was tasty and potato pave. The potato pave was crispy but soft on the inside. For an appetizer we had the Spätzle dish featuring Emmenthaler fondue, nutmeg, and gremolata. It's almost like a Mac and cheese. It had Microgreens and nuts in it. The combination worked so well. It was unique and delicious. A great place to celebrate a birthday or anniversary.

I got an NA elderberry lemonade spritzer that was delicious and refreshing. I ordered the shrimp and grits (they were soooo good, buttery, rich, and flavorful) and a side of potato wedges to share. The potato wedges are GF!!! The one and only downside to the grits was that they stopped being creamy and was more polenta-cakey only a few minutes after it got to the table, but honestly, did not mind at all. The dining room is eclectic, like visiting someone's Spanish villa's reading room. Really enjoyed it and will be back to try other dishes!

It was pretty busy for being close to closing time which is great, birthday parties were being celebrated, families grabbing ice cream, and folks like us not ready to end their evening.

Needless to say, I was happy to visit this new-to-me location. It's an interesting complex, bathrooms literally outside and attached to Steve's Hot Dogs. It's right next to an empty/neglected field which isn't the most welcoming sight. The parking lot is convenient though vs. street parking at Locust. They have a smaller menu than the Locust location, especially much less ice cream options. I was looking for the brownie in the mug which unfortunately was not on the menu here. I got a yummy and beautiful holiday drink along with a free holiday shot (as part of their holiday pop-up). The interior dining area is super small, I wondered if they had additional seating elsewhere but didn't seem that way. We ordered food, drinks, and ice cream all of which are delicious as usual. While I would still choose to go to their flagship location on Locust, this is a great alternate location if you are near the area.
