Egg Harbor Cafe

Great spot for some breakfast! They bring out the cream for the coffee in a small carafe but kinda wish they had some coffee mate flavored single serve cups though.

We visited the Barrington location this week and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. First of all, they have delicious espresso based drinks! And their regular coffee and iced teas are great too. We were warmly greeted and shown to a table by a friendly hostess (kudos to Egg Harbor for employing people in the front of the house who some would consider "disabled"). Our server was friendly and very efficient. I had the lobster and seafood omelet that was filled with chunks of seafood and very delicious. My husband had the San Antonio skillet and he loved it! Very spicy and flavorful. We both loved the house made jam on our English muffins. I read another review that said the portions are small and I must disagree - we both took boxes home. Great experience!

The place for breakfast or brunch!

The food is fantastic with a great service, cup of joe can have a number of flavours to it and all in a relaxed atmosphere. Sometimes it gets busy - especially Sunday morning but put your name down, take a buzzer and wait.... you will not be disappointed!

Had a great experience here! Friendly, attentive wait staff. Excellent food. I will be back!

This is one of my favorite breakfast places. On my most recent visit, I ordered the ultimate skillet and one of their current specials, lemon ricotta french toast. The skillet was delicious and the English muffin and house made jam that it comes with equally scrumptious. Truly, I wish I could have that muffin and jam every morning. The french toast was pretty good but I kinda thought it would be better than it was. Service is great and I recommend you join the online wait-list before you reach the restaurant because there is ALWAYS a wait since it is a well loved place. They turn tables over very quickly so the wait isn't long.

Lively, packed on a weekday at noon! Says a lot. Kind, prompt service. Good food!

A m a z i n g!

Park in back. Huge parking lot. Free parking.

Enter and choose to dine in, order out or take out, it order a coffee.

We ate in. Quick seating, quick service, food preparation was quick. Full meal in 30 minutes.

The food is great. We ordered the grits. You should order them too!

And the decor is chickens. So cute and cozy.

We will eat here many more times.

After many years of driving past when they were closed after 2 PM, we decided to wake up early and try it out. Both of our breakfasts were packed with so much flavor. I got the Barrington Eggs Benedict and my partner got the Aztec Omelette. We devoured our food in a matter of minutes. Nothing else was needed to add to the dish, it was delicious as is. Their famous strawberry orange juice was also delectable as it had pieces of strawberries mixed in. The service was great and fast. We are so glad that we decided to finally go!

Great food and cute space! We were seated fairly quickly for a Saturday morning and the service was great. They accommodated my food restrictions (removing bell peppers from a recipe) and the prices were reasonable. It does get a little bit loud, but so do the vast majority of breakfast places during Saturday brunch time!

This place is great! Our waitress was helpful and friendly. It’s a great place for gluten free and I noticed a lot of the ingredients are local and organic. They have a huge menu. I opted for an omelette with goat cheese, spinach, and avocado. I also got a gluten free cinnamon roll and an iced latte with lavender. The omelette was delicious! It was $10 and it comes with a side of potatoes and an English muffin. The latte was so smooth and had a good lavender flavor. The gf cinnamon roll was very flavorful and not dry at all, I was impressed. I have no idea what that seasoning blend on the table was, but I smothered my potatoes with it and I contemplated licking the plate when they were gone. I would definitely recommend and I would return.

Egg Harbor Barrington is a family favorite! Whenever we’re in town, we like to come here for Sunday breakfast! I love the scrambles and the omelettes. Their english muffins w/ homemade jam are magical. The service is always very quick, even though you may have to wait for a table at peak times. Love Egg Harbor!!

Love this place! I’ve never had a bad meal. My favorite is the cinnamon roll French toast, but the skillets and scramblers are also very delicious!

Visited here while in the area for brunch. I had their eggs Benedict and it was incredible. We had breakfast with mimosas and bloody marys. Loved every second. Had incredible breakfast food with incredible drinks! Can't wait to come back!

Had breakfast today with some old Navy buddies. One had difficulty finding the restaurant. I asked the manager if she could help. She guided him in over the phone. Above and beyond helpful!!!

Always great Food and Great Service. Food came out in a timely manner.

Come to your neighborhood breakfast and lunch cafe. Be welcome with a warm smile and to make you most comfortable. We love the coffee and the beautiful cup. We were allowed to modify couple of items as we are vegan/vegetarian.

Seriously, the best in the business! Every time I come here, I am more than happy. Now if they could only please put one in Cary, Illinois??? Troy, my server, could be maitre d at a five star restaurant. An extremely well-spoken young man. Everyone else here is also very friendly. Food is always perfect. I don't know what else I can say, except you must go here for breakfast if you want the best. Side note, I would like to see a green smoothie on the hard menu.

Great for a nice homestyle meal. Staff was very kind and was very available for us if we needed anything!

Food was high quality and prepared well. This is not a basic breakfast restaurant. The menu had a broad range and options for diverse palettes.

Great for breakfast! I had The oatmeal which was amazing. Topped with blackberries, blueberries, walnuts, and granola.
