This place seems to be very popular. Was almost full at 11am on Sunday. QR code menu. Special dishes on weekends. I chose regular omelette- constructor. Big portions, fare price. Latte was really good. Friendly staff. I was happy to see automatic hand soap dispenser and dryer built-in to faucet. Interesting feature. Recommended.

So I was here on 9/25/2022 for breakfast with a friend. The service from my waitress was great. She was attentive and everything. The food was good as usual until time for the bill. The tables are very close so it screams accidents waiting to happen. Well it did. Our waitress was also the waitress to the table next to us. We were packed in the restaurant like sardines to paint the picture. With my back turned to the waitress she accidentally knocked over the cup of hot coffee that she was trying to deliver to the table next to us and it spilled on my arm. I jerked my arm away from the sleeve where it was wet with hot coffee but it wasn't fast enough. It bothered me while but skin damage done other than the feel of after affect scolding hot coffee hitting my arm. The waitress was apologetic for what happened but manager could care less. He was more concerned about the lady not getting her coffee than he was me being burned by it. Told our waitress to remove the credit card fee for the inconvenience even though I paid cash. I felt that was very inconsiderate of him as I was the one the coffee landed on and for that reason I gave 1 star. I don't want to assume the possibility of it being racial because the lady that didn't get her coffee was white and I'm black. He was concerned and apologetic to the lady but to me he just asked did I need a napkin. The food is good the waitress was good but this reason alone I can not return. Hopefully this doesn't happen to anyone else.

Do they take reservations?

Hello Emily! Reservations are not accepted at the Wicker Park location; unsure about Andersonville. Given that the wait can easily be over an hour, I'd advise calling a bit in advance of your expected arrival time to verify how long it may take to be seated - especially during peak hours on the weekend.

Do you show sports games on tv
