Early Morning Delight

Great food and the staff is very friendly! Lots of menu items and specials to choose from, and the location is close to the L which makes for a nice breakfast/brunch spot.

OMG - highly recommend Early Morning Delight especially if you've been missing Marmalade (which used to be at Damen & Montrose, closed during the pandemic)! We had breakfast there with a friend this morning, and the food was fantastic, service was friendly, and the coffee's strong. Plus easy street parking on Irving Park. Many of the menu items we loved at Marmalade are here, like Papi's Skillet and Chef Efrain's Omelette... plus creative specials like the Italian Benedict. And the Churro French Toast is like breakfast dessert - gotta try it!

Very solid addition to the neighborhood that is flying under the radar. We spotted it on a walk to The Globe for lunch and circled back a few days later to check it out. The food was very solid and the portions were large (we had leftovers from both dishes). The Poblano Chilaquiles we awesome and very filling. The Kids Combo was equally a hit and a good value. We will be back again!
