Breakfast is on the table today

No. Come to the restaurant and check in. There is no advance reservation or guaranteed seat. Dine-in is first come, first served on the day of the anniversary, based on availability and resources.

Doors open at 8AM and we serve until 2PM. Early birds get seated first — the line forms before we open. Last check-in is at 1:30PM, based on availability.

Get in line at the restaurant, check in with your name and phone number, and stay close by. We call the number you used at check-in when your table is ready. Everyone in your party must be present when you check in, and you have 15 minutes from the announcement to be at the host stand or your spot goes to the next party in the queue.

Yes — 90 minutes per table, and we will be strict about it so every guest gets a chance to dine in.

Yes. To-go orders are limited to 2 per person and must be placed at the register. To-go orders will not be accepted at the table for dine-in patrons.

No alcohol is served, and no alcohol is allowed on the premises. Coffee, juice, and Grandma’s hospitality are on the house rules instead.

No, baby. Breakfast is being served for the anniversary celebration ONLY — one Saturday, October 3, 2026.

Catfish, ham off the bone, salmon croquettes, pork chops, eggs, grits, hashbrowns, sausage, pancakes, BLT, bacon, biscuits and more — all while supplies last.

Families are welcome. Larger parties may wait longer since seating depends on what tables open up, and everyone in the party has to be present at check-in.

Arrive early, dress for Chicago October weather since the line may be outside, keep your phone on and charged, bring your whole party with you, plan for street parking, and come hungry.
