Menu's are only QR code. I prefer paper menu. You come in and are handed a # for your table with QR code for the menu. We had questions but sat around while the poor guy had 5 other tables plus us to take care of before we were approached. After that the place slowed down. Wake n Bacon burger, so glad I order any other cheese other than the pepper jack bc the fig jam had a kick! Delicious burger but lil spicy. My partner had the cheeze & Chong, it was good also but pepper jack cheese gave it that unexpected kick. Ended up putting the beef patty on the cheeze and Chong and it was amazing!!!! Espresso Martini's were fantastic! Def recommend giving this place a try. Great daily deals also.
The space was charming and cozy. You would miss it if you didn't see the Open sign on the window. Our server Kay was friendly and all the food was delicious. We devoured our plates in minutes. Left with full bellies and smiles all around. The happy hour is from 2-4pm everyday and includes select cocktails for $5 and entrees starting at $2. Definitely worth it.
Why don't you walk in? It's a beautiful flower top. It gives so cute and comfy with games. The service is impeccable. Ben the waiter was so nice and kind and kept checking on me and the food itself was so nice and fresh right when you make it there everything was really nice. Here's some pictures to share my experience. I will visit again. I love the happy hour. prices
The place is absolutely stunning, with the flower ceiling and warm staff, special shoutout to Ben and Kate! Food is good, coffee is very tasty!
Food & bev: 10/10 plenty of options including cbd infusions. Service: 10/10 quick and easy! Ambiance: 10/10 loved the floral ceilings and photo booth touch.
Went back and it was still just as good. The service is nice, the purple haze drink is so so good. A little sweet but just what I needed. Unfortunately they were out of the strawberry French toast :/ but the chicken and waffles were just as good
Ube flap jack stack - very filling, couldn't finish it, one huge Ube pancake that fills up the whole plate and it's topped with a thick-cut maple pepper bacon (if you choose that option for meat), the yolk from the sunny-side up eggs oozes over the Ube pancake, the cheddar cheese is blended in the egg also, loved the pickled spicy peppers on top, they give you plenty of spiced maple syrup Mirror photo - they have a mirror photo by the entrance that takes your photo and prints right away and you can post it on the wall, but it was not working when my friend and I were there Decor - ceiling is covered with hanging flowers and plants which is really pretty, great for photo ops Highly recommend making reservations ahead of time since it can get really busy especially on the weekends
Food is still all excellent - the turtle waffles, the ube flap jacks and the baesilog ( cured sweetened thick Filipino bacon). Service was fine. And it's still really pretty. The demerit comes from the food delivery there was 9 of us on two tables. The food came out erratic and the time difference between the first order to the last one was substantial enough that half of us was done eating. Also I don't like any restaurant not only this one, where the tip is added upfront.
UPDATE: July 2025. Still amazing, perfect for brunch. Recommend: Ube Coffee Purple Haze, Flight of Bacon (OMG), and same as before - Uber Flapjack Stack. Had the strong and good cocktail Cold-Fashioned, and several more great dishes. A+++
First off I love the ambiance inside with all the flowers hanging from the ceiling and photo wall by the entrance. The space is very welcoming. There is currently construction outside so it was a bit hard to find at first. I ordered the purple haze and ube flap stack. The portions were huge but the flavor was a bit lacking. The coffee was a bit too watery for my taste and the ube pancakes didn't really have much ube flavor. The bacon was a bit too tough as well but the eggs and other toppings were good. I really liked the spicy syrup on the side. I think I'd come again but trying something else.
This place was a bit of a letdown to be honest. We had an online reservation and they opened promptly at 8am and immediately seated us. They do online table ordering here through Toast which can be convenient but I also dislike the lack of service aspect when restaurants do this. As for the food/drinks, it was nothing to write home about; it was OK at best. I ordered the Purple Haze coffee which was a bit lacking in the ube flavor. It wasn't bad like some of the others I've had in the past theirs was OK. Also I ordered it with oat milk too I believe but my stomach did act up a bit later so I'm not sure if they really used it or not. My order was the Ube Flap Jack Stack. The pancake itself had a slight crisp to the edges and was a bit moist in the center. Underneath it was flecked with mini tater tots which provided a nice surprise every couple of bites. The tocino bacon for me had little to no tocino flavor. It should be sweet and savory at the very least with maybe some garlic. Theirs lacked both. Lastly the sunny side up egg was for sure over cooked. The yoke was basically fully cooked through. The hot pepper on top was a nice touch though. As for the baesilog, my friend had no complaints with the tocino bacon. With the Big John, my friend said the tater tots were so salty that he couldn't really enjoy his food. The interior was clean and the bathrooms didn't smell at all which was a big plus for me. They also have like a selfie mirror camera thing with a printer but it was broken at that time. I think this is the kind of place that I would want to give a 2 because it just didn't meet expectations but trying to remain rational and and fair it's at least a 3/5.
We went to breakfast on a Tuesday morning and it was pretty empty, the place was decorated nicely with flowers hanging from ceiling. Staff were nice and helpful, you have to order from phone or at the front which could be annoying when busy. Food took normal amount of time to come. The coffee was okay, they didn't have any cream for the coffee and had to use milk for it. I got the chicken and waffles, the chicken was very good, one of the better chickens I've had and the bubble waffles tasted like any other waffle. They have spicy maple syrup and while it was good it was not spicy at all sadly. Overall it was an alright breakfast. It's definitely not the typical breakfast place and serves different food than a normal diner would.
Wake 'n Bacon was a solid choice for breakfast right by the lake. We walked in on a Friday morning and were able to get a table right away. They're a fast casual place, so no waiters, but the staff will come check on you quickly if you press the little button on the table. All three people in my party got the phatty, and the portion was huge. Their burrito was decent, just wish there were more beans (mostly rice/tots/eggs). I'd go back to try more of their menu- the drinks and waffles looked great! 3.5 rounded up to 4.

Cute coffee shop with a great variety of breakfast and brunch options! One of my favorite things about this spot is the decor and ambiance, if you're into taking cute pictures at brunch, this is the place to go! While I did not have any CBD infused food or drinks, the food was delicious and made fresh! I visited with a large party and we were able to place our order by scanning the QR code and paying at the register. The bacon appetizer was my favorite! I look forward to going back and trying something new! Free street parking was also available! read more

HORRIBLE service, what a joke. My friends and I came to start birthday outtong here and immediately wanted to leave. If we hadn't ordered ON OUR PHONES, we would have. We were sat directly in front of the door, repeatedly-- 4-5 times-- asked the staff to please move us. Every time the door opened, our straws would fly out of our drinks and our napkins would need to be held down. It was not full, the staff was just bad, quite literally avoiding eye contact with us, even when we approached them. The group of guys next to us also seemed upset and displeased, even joking with us about how bad the service was. The food. Very average. The chicken was dry, we would have asked for more syrup but the staff avoided us like the plague. Asking us for a tip when you're not taking our order, not moving us, and literally avoiding us is crazy. I would never go back, nor recommend anyone try this place. read more

My brother brought me breakfast to go and it was absolutely delicious! The baesilog was on point and I really enjoyed the quesadilla because I could smell the cheese. I enjoyed the sweet and savoriness of the whole meal! The presentation was also a 10! read more

Wake 'n Bacon is great for most reasons and honestly, I believe depending on your preference, the spot is either or a 4 or 5. Let me explain: The decor is really cool and very trendy. We came for an early 8:30 am reservation so it was easier to take in everything when it's not busy. Everything can be ordered infused with 25 mg so we'll definitely come back and try that part, but early morning breakfast we bought a good amount! We ordered the Spiced Maple Chicken & Waffles, Ube Flap Jack Stack, Purple Haze drinks, and a side of tater tots and garlic rice. I loved the spice maple chicken & waffles. As someone who loves spicy food, the kick of the peppers were really fresh so I was happy about that. The flavor on the chicken was really good and the bubble waffles were really fun. With a drench of maple syrup, it was great all together! Now here's why I think it's by preference - I was not a fan of the Ube Flap Jack Stack all together. The Ube pancake? Amazing. The egg? Pretty good, nothing crazy. The tocino (pork belly)? Not a fan. It didn't taste right to me but I'm probably biased with how traditional Filipino tocino is supposed to taste like. But my partner loved the meal! Ate a lot of it too. They preferred their meal over my order and vise versa. Which I think is a fair assessment. Also, the tater tots? Really good! Great crunch and I loved it with the chipotle mayo sauce on the side. The purple haze drinks were Ube Lattes and it was a great taste then too. Overall, a great experience! We'll definitely be back and especially to taste the infused food! read more

Aesthetically, this place is super cute and the Photo Booth is a great touch. It was definitely a good spot to catch up with a friend and they had great music. However, I was not very impressed outside of that. Their service is a little different than most places. You order online and pay before your meal arrives (like fast food takeout). It was a little strange as it doesn't allow for modifications on items and if you have questions about an item, you technically don't have a server to ask. The food was ok but nothing that really stood out. The coffee was great though! read more

A well-travelled colleague recommended this place for its trendy ambiance and impressive menu. (Hi, Lany!) We just secured the outside seating with swinging seats..haha. Huge servings that you must come starving. Nevertheless, I had no problem consuming the Spiced Maple Chicken and Waffles completely- they were Bubble waffles, so light and crispy like toasted crepes that went so well with another crispy fried chicken. Oozings of maple syrup made it complete. The highlight for me though was the Purple Haze drink. That was a lovely concoction. Ube and coconut should always stick together, but with coffee? Perfect menagè trois! It proved to be too hot to stay out, so my two kids transferred indoors. Place wasn't crowded at this time and the staff were all nice and accommodating- very friendly service. read more

I absolutely love the decor and hanging ceiling gardens!! So at the table, you order and pay through your phone and everything is delivered by servers. By and large this was fine and I really liked how our orders came out staggered as we placed them and that when we were ready to leave there was no waiting for the check and then for our cards to come back but I didn't love how hard it was to get a box for the rest of my food. Everything was pretty tasty, especially the turtle waffle and the French toast, two things I would never have ordered by myself but am so glad I tried. The coffee drinks were also yummy. read more
This place is absolutely too cool for school! First, it's beautiful. The flowers hanging from the ceiling, while obviously not real, are gorgeous. The decorations on the walls, just lovely. The swing seats outside... I'd try them in a heartbeat. What fun! Unfortunately, it was a very rainy morning. The Purple Haze, a house made Ube coconut milk concoction mixed with Brewpoint's Stargazer coffee and milk was more delicious than I anticipated. We also ordered drip coffee. I added a bit of Mr. Black Coffee Liqueur to mine. Yum! Mark had the Ube Flap Jack Stack and I ordered the Maui WOWie. And we had to try the bacon flight. I love bacon, but these three bacon flavor options were just okay. After trying these, I believe I prefer my bacon naked. Our breakfast visit was expensive, but I feel like the experience was an expensive one. Does that make sense? I'm saying it was worth it. Would we do it again? Maybe, but having been here once we would keep our exploratory selections to a minimum. Yeah... I'd go back for sure. read more
This is such a fun breakfast spot and such a perk to have in the neighborhood. They offer such a delicious variety of food. It's a spot I always take friends to while they are in town visiting. They have many appetizers to split with whomever you're with and multiple coffee options. My favorite coffee they have is the Purple Haze. You can't go wrong with any breakfast or brunch option they have. I saw they just started doing dinner on the weekends, which I am sure is incredible. The interior is gorgeous - with flowers hanging from the ceiling as decor. They have a large mirror that takes your picture and prints it if you walk up to it. It's a very Instagram friendly place and near the lake, which is always nice. read more
We tried the following items from their weekend dinner menu: 1. Wham Bam Thank You Spam - spice battered spam fries w/ housemade chipotle mayo dip 2. Holy Al Pastor Tacos - grilled chicken thighs marinated in achiote, garlic & pineapple 3. Wake 'N Bacon Burger - pepperjack cheese, caramelized onions, chipotle mayo, mustard pickles, housemade bacon jam, brioche bun 4. Ube Creme Brulee Spam fries were surprisingly tasty, mainly because of the crispy breading. Great combo of flavors in the al pastor chicken tacos. Wake n bacon burger was a solid, juicy burger with interesting and minimal toppings. Ube Creme brulee lacked ube flavor. Employees were friendly and service was good. Interior design is pretty and contributes to a fun experience! read more
We visited Wake 'n Bacon for brunch on a Saturday afternoon. We came around 1pm and had a reservation, when we walked in there were a bunch of empty tables but within minutes of being seated the restaurant was completely packed. When you walk in, the doors are a little confusing you need to push the button for the door to open, and when you enter the restaurant you need to walk all the way through to the counter to be seated. Once seated you'll scan the QR code to order your food and drinks and they will bring it out to you. You do pay ahead of time, so each time you want to order something you would place a new order. The ambiance of the restaurant was super cute and photo worth! From the beautiful flowers in the ceiling to the colorful walls. They had great music that you couldn't help singing along with. For my drink I got the Liquid Sunshine which included Kettle One Peach, & Orange Blossom, Citris Springs Oj, Calamansi Sour Mix, and peach syrup and green popping bubbles. It was a super refreshing drink that tasted like juice and if not careful a few of those bad boys and you may be a bit tipsy without knowing! For my meal I got the Maui Wowie, which is Hawaiian Bread, spam, tajin spiced grilled pineapples, chipotle Mayo and scrambled eggs with a side of their Jorjito Tots which are tots topped with a sun side egg, house pickled chilies, salsa roja, provolone and crack bacon. The portion was huge and so I ate half and saved the other half for later. The sandwich was delicious, it had a little fruit sauce on the side that helped bring out the sweet and spicy flavors of the grilled pineapples, and the jorjito tots were out of this world! The perfect bite of the tot, egg, crack bacon in the sauces made each one taste better and better. Heads up that the sauces do pack a punch of heat if you're not expecting it. My husband and I also shared the Halo Halo Chia Chia which includes Chia Pudding topped with seasonal fresh fruit, coconut jelly, topped with fruity pebbles. When I tell you this concoction was mindblowingly good, that's an understatement. From the fresh berries to the sweetness of the fruity pebbles on the chia seed pudding, it didn't matter how full I was... I kept eating. All in all we had a great experience and would love to come back to try other popular dishes and drinks! read more

I used to live in lake view east and never went to Wake n Bacon until I moved. Oh how I regret it. The Adobo Philly Dip was sooo good! I wanted to put everything in the dip. Sides & all. I also got the chicken sandwich which was good as well but I accidentally order popcorn with it. You scan the menu and order and pay on your phone then the staff brings the food to the table. They did give water when you first come and explain how the ordering process works. There was a dope picture wall and a mirror that takes your picture, but the printer was out of order at the time. You could still email it to yourself though. Overall great experience read more
Although the ambience and aesthetics of the place is quite Instagram worthy, the food was not up to par. Don't get me wrong, the flowered ceiling and the inviting warm, outdoor lighting created a fruitful ambience, but the flavors did not match. At first glance, the menu offers a variety of options ranging from sweet to savory brunch items, along with their creative coffees, teas, and cocktails options. Overall, I left very unsatisfied. I was missing a flavor punch from every bite of my breakfast wrap (The Phatty). I also ordered the Purple Haze, an ube flavored iced coffee, which was really a watery coffee with just the slightest hint of ube. read more

Wake 'n Bacon catches my attention due to instagrammable decoration and food presentation in the beginning but it turns out I was amazed by their foods and parents-friendly facility. I went with my friends with their 2-month-old baby. There are two unisex restrooms that make parents can help with each other while changing baby's diaper without needing to separate them due to gender. Stroller is also allowed to put next to the table that parents can easily take care of their baby. Needless to say, Ube Flap Jack Steak is highly recommend. So is Purple Haze. You can tast coffee, milk, and coconut at the same time. It is not just beautiful but tasty! read more
Served right away! Pretty busy! Food smelt good from outside! Seating pretty small, Walk ins welcome, reservations are well suggested. The ambiance is present. Everyone is enjoying conversations almost one another but you definitely can hear conversations. They even have a big picture frame for you take a pic of the moment.!! Adorable !!! Definitely aNice spot for breakfast! read more
I am glad I was able to make reservations as it is a busy spot that seems well loved, and deservedly so. I love this fusion spot for breakfast. It's so creative and yet so flavorful and delicious. We were seated in a booth area in the back which was perfect for a group of girls that hasn't seen each other in maybe 5 years. We were able to scan the bar code to place and pay for our order online. They brought our drinks and food out pretty quickly. I had such a hard time choosing because there were so many good sounding options from the description to some of the pictures. I did get Mo chicks Mo poblanos and it was so good and some of the best tater tots I have had in a while. The liquid sunshine drink was refreshing and paired really well with my meal. I love the selfie mirror and the wall of pics with the printed selfies. It was a lot of fun! I want to come back again. read more
It's a cute little cafe located north of downtown Chicago. They are not a full service type restaurant, meaning you have to order your food at the counter then it's brought out to you. Order: spiced maple chicken n' waffle, WnB burger. The food was very good. The chicken and waffle were garnished with pickled peppers which added a nice twist to the flavor. Waffle was light/airy and paired with a "not too sweet" syrup. The burger was served with a side of hash browns and had a nice flavor but was a little salty. read more

This place is the best!! I love the concept of ordering at the table via your phone, only part that sucks is if you want another drink or dessert, you have to check out again. So your bank may contact you asking why you keep swiping your card at the same place every 30 mins haha. Food is phenomenal!! The decor and layout is amazing! The even have a cute little photo mirror you can take pics and post it on the wall!! I had the adobo Philly dip sandwich! Amazing! Also had the citrus 99! read more

The cutest l brunch I had on my trip to Chicago! WnB is for all my aesthetic, Instagram girlies. Hehe I had to reserve a table for us about a week in advance to ensure we would be seated. They do take walk ins but it's not recommended. The reservations requires a $25 hold per person, so if you don't show up you're out $25+. Luckily, we all showed up and had a delicious brunch!! We basically ordered a bit of everything and shared. Spiced Maple Chicken 'n Waffles - the chicken was tender and juicy. I loved the breading on it and the peppers were all the e spice I needed. I wasn't a fan of the bubble waffle. Although it was cute in theory, I was missing the texture from a traditional waffle. The maple syrup also wasn't sweet enough. Big Bird - who doesn't love a fried chicken sandwich!?! And man, that sauce they smothered the chicken in was so good! I could've dipped anything in it. Lol Ube Flapjacks - surprisingly, the ube flavor was strong. The maple bacon on top was bombbbbb. I loved the vibe of WnB but my favorite part was obviously the mirror up front that dubbed as a photo booth. I loved that they offer this for free and the photo actually turns out beautifully! It's such a a fun idea and I'm now looking into purchasing something similar for my events! Lol WnB was a bit out of the way for us, but I'm glad we made the trip. It was well worth it! read more

I was brought here for my birthday treat. We had reservations for 11:30. Got there around 11:25 and was seated at 11:45. I wouldn't have minded the wait but there was no where to sit nor stand. Once we were seated we were directed to the QR code to order. I'm familiar with looking at the QR for a menu for sanitary purposes. But as this was my first time here I wasn't able to all any questions. Every one that was working seemed to walk with their faces down to avoid having to have any contact with you besides putting plates on your table. I cook very well. So when I come out to dine it's more so for the experience than anything. So I was really turned off by that. By the time the food did arrive it was absolutely delicious. The bacon flight was CRAZY. The bacon was so thick it was giving brisket vibes. The French toast was delicious. Rich thick and fluffy. I also got the huevos con chorizo which was fire. The verde sauce was on point. The bubble waffles were kind of scary for me to look at but my date said they were fire. I'll order take out if I was to come back. The ambiance of hanging floral didn't compare to the elbow to elbow seating. Over crowdedness and lack of server engagement. read more

My friend and I made a reservation here for brunch. The place was packed, but we were sat right away so I would highly recommend a reservation if going on the weekend. As for the food, it was amazing! I loved the Asian inspired brunch options. I ended up getting the Adobo Philly, the purple haze (ube latte) and shared a bacon flight with my friend. If you decide to get anything here, I highly recommend the bacon flight. That was the most memorable and tastiest part of the meal. The bacon was thick and juicy, but what stood out most was that each pair had a unique flavor you won't find at any other restaurant. Overall, this place is very trendy. You might come here at first for the looks like I did, but you will be back again just for the food! read more

Our spicy mianga-Rita was not that spicy . The adobo chicken sandwich was flavorful with the dipping gravy on the side. The turtle waffle was fluffy. Grilled cheese was average but the onions added a nice crunch. Overall a decent experience. read more
I had high expectations for this place seeing it on tik tok and instagram. It's a cute place and concept of ordering from your phone, however, food was mediocre. We tried the Purple Haze cold brew, ube donut, ube flapjack stack and the #BaeGoal sandwich. Everything seemed to lack the flavor we imagined, the Bagel sandwich was overloaded with cream cheese, the ube pancake wasn't cooked all the way through and was runny inside. We were really hoping for some Filipino flavors and we did not get that in this meal. If you are looking for cute insta pics, this is your spot, but if you are looking for an unforgettable meal, I suggest to go elsewhere. read more
Wake n Bacon definitely lives up to the hype! A super fun place to take photos for IG! Trying to find parking here is Baaaaaaaaad!!! LOL So give yourself plenty of time. We made reservations a week and a half in advance to lock down a Sunday 1:30pm brunch time. When you get there, head straight down to the counter. You will get seated and can either order food directly with them or via your phone. We ordered the spiced maple chicken and waffles, ube flap Jack stack, and a cold brew. I would recommend both of the dishes ordered. The crispy chicken thighs was fried to perfection. Very juicy and flavorful. The bubble waffle and the spiced maple syrup went really well together. I enjoyed this dish very much! The Ube Flap Jack Stack was also delicious! The highlight of the dish are the ube pancakes and the perfectly cooked thick cut bacon! The spiced maple syrup brought the whole dish together. I would skip the $4.50 cold brew. It was pretty watered down and the whole cup was full of ice cubes. Def not worth it at all. Pretty disappointed actually. After you're done enjoying your meal, don't forget to stop by their photo booth to take a group photo before heading out! The photo can be emailed and or printed out for you! read more
Everything is self service. you order online and pay and they bring it out to you. if you need anything, you press a button at your table. The food itself is really good. I would definitely go again. The burger was definitely better than the burrito. The inside was nice as well! read more

Been wanting to visit for a while and now that I have, I was mildly disappointed. They don't have a lot of lights inside and it was a cloudy day, it was pretty dark inside. It's loud and busy, tables are really close together. You sit down, order and pay via QR code before you get your food. It's efficient I guess, but why are places now asking for tips before you even receive any service lol The purple haze drinks are pretty, but atrociously watered down and I didn't taste the coffee at all. Idk if they put brewed coffee instead of espresso, but I've had ube lattes before elsewhere and this just wasn't it. It's just 2 glasses of purple water for $10. The food was pretty good. Large portions. Ube flapjack and chicken waffles were both a good combination of sweet and savory, and very unique. read more
Brunch here is great and I am even more impressed with the night time atmosphere! There is a neon glowing aesthetic that you wont be able to see during brunch that shines a new light on the dining experience. Even though it was quiet when I went, we still had great service with amazing food. I feel like most only consider this for brunch, but I see it as a great option for dinner as well and feel more people should know about it! read more

Wake n bacon was a cute brunch spot on my trip to chicago. Pretty easily accessible by bus from the downtown area we were staying at and there was a fair amount of parking. They did have two table swing set for dining unfortunately it was taken. Lots of seating inside with beautiful, well thought out decor. Bathrooms were interesting as they had separate rooms for toilets but sink was a common area sink instead of individual one to use in the bathroom. We had made reservations prior via Yelp but surprisingly on a Sunday morning it was pretty empty (we did come around 9am though). Initially it was weird how we got seated. I'm used to having a host seat us right as we walk in but that was not the case, we had to go all the way to the back where the bar/kitchen is. There were people just standing- I believe waiting for their order or drinks for take out and it wasn't necessarily obvious how we should be seated (ex: some restaurants make you order first and give you a number to put at the table, others seat you and give you menu/code for menu for phone). In this case you should head to the left side where a cashier looks to be at and let them know your seating situation (like if you have a reservation). I wish maybe workers were more tentative or something because I stood there for a good 5 minutes thinking the people in front of my was waiting for someone! Once we sat down they give you a menu and you order online and pay once you order via online. I believe the owners are of or have Filipino influenced because there was a lot of Filipino menu items I was excited to try! It's very much a Filipino fusion and other Asian fusion-influenced menu which I was excited to try! They had halo-halo chia seed pudding with chia seed pudding, fresh fruit, fruity pebbles for texture/crunch/flavor and green jelly. I thought this was SUPER refreshing.! For how much you get it's worth the price. I got the chicken and waffles. It was interesting to have the waffles come in bubble waffle form - a unique twist I've yet to see other Asian fusion or Asian influenced places. It does have a kick if you have a spice intolerance. My friend got the breakfast burrito- she said there wasn't enough protein in hers unfortunately. Maybe the luck of the draw that day. Wish we got to try the silog plate as it had tocino styled bacon! If I was to go back to chicago I'd definitely come back. The decor was beautiful, our food was delicious and they had so many options to choose from! I love that they take reservations and have a waitlist. read more

Had an ube (sort of like a purple sweet potato) inspired breakfast here and it was everything i could've asked for. Super cute vibe and will definitely be back to try other things. I definitely recommend the Ube Flap Jack Stack and Purple Haze. read more

Ask the Community - Wake ‘n Bacon
Do you have to call for weekend reservations for 5?
Look like it. But counter seating and the outdoor seating didn’t require reservations.
Where do people typically park?
There's a parking garage next door and some street parking . I recommend using the SpotHero app.
Is this a good place to study?
No since it’s reservations recommended and gets quite packed and noisy with diners.
Is this place Kid friendly?
I think it's fine to take kids overall. They would find the food, decor, and the photo booth fun! Not sure if your looking for this too but: In my opinion, I would take my older child (7) as she is someone who loves to be treated to new restaurants…
Do they have mimosas? Bottomless mimosas?
We do have mimosas. We do not, however, have bottomless mimosas.
Can you walk in to get a coffee to go?
Absolutely! We’re actually counter-service so you can get everything to go if you want - muffins, coffee, tea, food, and even cocktails!
Do they offer mimosas or bottomless mimosas?
How can I make a reservation for outdoor seating?
At the moment they don't appear to have outdoor seating, just take out, and maybe delivery.
