Our second time to Chicago and our second breakfast with WB. We had to have the Berry Bliss Pancakes again (so much we should have shared) and the Rutherford Omelette, it was so good. Great service and friendly staff, will be back again.

This incredibly popular place is worth every minute we waited for a table. We arrived at around 8:45 AM and waited for almost half an hour, but were happy to wait so we could eventually get a table. The food is absolutely worth it! Our...waiter came over right away and took our drinks orders (a lavender matcha latte and a hazelnut latte), and then came back for our food. There were so many good things available that we had trouble decide what we wanted to order. Our waiter helped us decide on the berry bliss pancakes (their signature pancakes), the corned beef benedict, and a nutella crepe to share, and everything was superb! Even though this restaurant is very busy, we weren't rushed out, so we could to enjoy our food at our own pace. Prices are reasonable and the portions are pretty big. We'll definitely come back here, although maybe we'll come earlier in the day so we can get a table sooner.More

We got the chicken and waffles and berry bliss pancakes. Both were good. Unfortunately, there is a bee hive in the outdoor patio area of the restaurant so as soon as our waiter brought the maple syrup out, 5 or so bees came over to...join us. We initially just let them drink the syrup in the container but it became an issue when they started landing in our food. We told our waiter and he offered no solution; we expected he would ask if we wanted to move to a table inside. He didn’t. So we ate as fast as we could and got out of there!More

Waited around 20 mins for a table just before 9am. Well worth the wait. We got Banana cream pancakes and Mexicana skillet. Holy moly, the portions were huge and delicious. We also had a latte and an OJ again both were huge. The service was...great and the restaurant had a great atmosphere. Great value for money as we did not eat again until dinner. Highly recommend.More

We arrived a little after 9:00am on a Saturday and had to wait about 20 minutes to get a table….but it was well worth the wait! I ordered the pumpkin bread french toast…OMGoodness! It was divine…and I couldn’t even finish my third slice. The staff...was knowledgeable & accommodated gluten-free needs within our group. Everyone agreed this was one of the BEST breakfasts we’ve ever had. We cannot wait to visit again the next time we’re in Chicago.More

5 stars isn’t enough. Great good and great service. I went twice during my stay in Chicago and it was amazing, I had pancakes, eggs, toast, sausage links and hash browns l, all amazing. The first time I went it was right when they opened...the service was great. Second time was a bit later, place was slammed. The whole staff handled it like it was a walk in the park. You can tell they’re used to being busy, speaks to how good their food/ service is.More

Very welcoming and great service with everything well explained. Breakfast Burrito was great, although some food envy looking at the pancake stacks (maybe not great marathon prep😀)!! Get there early if you want to beat the rush though.

My wife and I ate breakfast here twice during our stay nearby. The wait staff is great and the food we had was delicious. We did not have to wait to be seated and ate both inside and on the patio (they warned us about...bees). We did share one meal on the second day as the portion sizes are large. Would highly recommend.More

Our breakfast was fantastic with giant portions of food. It’s impossible to leave hungry! The only downer was that we were told there would be a 45-1hr long wait when we arrived. This was fine and we took a little walk to the park while...we waited. We came back about 35min later and stood around for almost an hour before our table of 2 was called.More

Fantastic Breakfast! We reviewed in advance many downtown eateries in our brief food, sport, and cityscape trip to downtown Chicago. Being close by “Wildberries” seemed to be a highly rated breakfast established. Let’s cut to the chase here and just say the food is not...only fantastic but the volume you’re going to be served you had better be awfully hungry. I ordered the egg/green pepper filled crepes and received 2 huge long crepes that looked like perfectly filled large manicotti or burritos with a large dollop of sweat cream on top, they were outrageous! Crazy me also ordered a “side” of ham for only $8.00 and received 4 very thick cuts of tender ham, (one could have made a meal on that alone!). They also have an extensive selection of high quality and varied coffee choices. We also had a great server too and we’re fortunate to get booth tables twice. Ambiance is just what you would expect on a breakfast place, a lot of satisfied people enjoying the food and morning buzz. On a weekend reservations could be helpful, we didn’t but then you will have to wait a bit otherwise. What more can one say? Chicago in my humble opinion may be the USA’s greatest foodie city, and within this exalted universe then there is “Wildberry” where you should go to eat breakfast and be prepared to strap on a feast no matter what you select!More

This is a great place for breakfast. The dishes are pretty, delicious and HUGE! The service is amazing, they have a lot of people working, so it works really well. It’s pricey, but it’s worth it to splurge at least once during your trip, or...sometimes on weekends for the locals.More

I am guessing it’s ok with so many outside tables as some of them are almost on the sidewalk next to the street.
