Pauline's

What a letdown. Mediocre and  unacceptable. The food was terrible. Had the whole wheat pancakes and eggs. Dry and clinging to the plate.  My husband's omelette looked good but tasted like unsalted, unflavored raw egg. His toast came out at the end of his meal and was hardly toasted and old. My daughter's eggs were good as eggs go-- but we asked for them first and that was a no go.

It took someone ten minutes to come by with coffee and water. Instead of attending to the few customers they had, the waitstaff just lazily hung out in the kitchen. When the waitress finally came by, she was less than pleased. She clearly didn't want to be there on a Sunday morning.

The coffee is God-awful. It tastes like tar water laced with arsenic. Four creams in the cup won't lighten that baby up.

Not going back here again. I remember it being much much better years ago. Now it's gone down the drain-- like what they should do with their coffee.

I love to go to Pauline's on the snowy day and order their breakfast special-always fresh and surprising, like their bread pudding and great bacon-where in Chicago do they get their bacon from???
The food is fresh and good and the service caring and personal.
Be back here anytime.

Quaint little diner. Only open from 7a-3p daily. Great breakfast spot. Always super nice and accommodating staff. Great breakfast ( have not had lunch here yet) with large portions. Always freshly squeezed juices. I love to go for brunch as it tends to quiet down around 11 am ish on the weekends.
