Original Alps Pancake House

Great neighborhood spot for a family brunch. the lines are long but the wait is not. The people are nice but my only thing is they will definitely rush you as son as you are finished with your food.

Love this place. Great for all day breakfast! Super clean, friendly staff, fast service and seating is comfortable . Been coming for years, and so happy to have this place in the neighborhood !Food: 5/5

This is a fantastic spot for some classic diner-style food. The atmosphere is pleasant, featuring an open dining area, and the service was excellent. The staff was friendly and attentive to our needs. I ordered breakfast, and the food arrived hot and fairly quickly. Overall, I had a great experience. View menu

The steak was under cooked and I sent it back. I ordered medium well. It was rare. When it came back it was burnt. My husband's food was not great either. Service was okay. The place seemed full which is odd considering our experience.Breakfast skillet and destroyed steak and eggs $60. I will not go back.Food: 1/5

It is hard enough to find parking in the city, but a parking lot with 20 open spaces at 9:00 on a Sunday morning, WINNING!. Great service, attentive but not rushed Reasonable prices Plenty of seating available Wide variety menu Generous portionsHighly recommended for a weekend get together with friends or a family morning out.

The service was prompt and efficient. Our group of four arrived without a reservation and were seated in less than a minute. The staff was polite and had a great sense of humor. Our food arrived right on time and was absolutely delicious. One of us ordered pancakes while the others opted for waffles, and everything was outstanding. I will definitely return the next time I’m in Chicago. View menu

The restaurant can accommodate a group of 20, making it great for gatherings. It has a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere, and the staff, including the servers and greeter, have a wonderfully cheerful demeanor. The lighting is bright, with windows all around that enhance the overall dining experience. The food was delicious with no complaints whatsoever. This is my top choice for breakfast and lunch! Pictures attached.

We LOVE Alps! It is the PERFECT spot when you’re looking for comfort food done right. Their baked omelettes are my absolute favorite and swapping the toast for pancakes is the way to go. I’ve NEVER had anything I wasn’t totally blown away by AND their menu is insane. They have so many options for any food preferences, and I love going for breakfast and a cup of coffee knowing I’m supporting a local, family-owned, neighborhood establishment.

What an amazing experience I had here. Bob (which I believe to be the owner) came by to greet myself and a friend of mine, personally. Thanked us for what we do, and was just the absolute sweetest. We had the cream of chicken rice, and it was the best by far! I've tried many places, but they're usually watery. This place has an amazing cream of chicken rice soup! Very flavorful, creamy, and their bread was very fresh and soft. This is 1000% a must try, I will be back with my family. View menu
