Brunch•Chicago•value

Beatrix is one of the best brunch restaurants in Chicago for brunch, especially if you want a strong option in Chicago.

Editorial review updated•Jul 28, 2026

Beatrix is the rare brunch room that earns its line not with theater but with bakery-counter conviction — this is a Lettuce Entertain You spot (Rich Melman's crew, with chef partners John Chiakulas, Rita Dever and Susan Weaver) that built its identity around in-house pastries, signature cookies, and house-roasted coffee from Beatrix Coffee Roasters. Order the lemon pancakes if you want sweet-and-bright, the chili lime shrimp if you don't. The signature avocado toast comes loaded with toppings, and the buffalo chicken meatballs land tender-and-spicy against a genuinely good hummus. The salads — the Enlightened Caesar ($13.95), the Green Chicken Chili with roasted poblano and crispy tortillas ($12.95) — hold up at a twelve-top where everyone wants something different. But save room: the Oh My! Caramel Pie, shortbread crust under caramel and vanilla bean whip, made Chicago Magazine's 50 Best Dishes twice. Portions skew moderate for the price, so this is a graze-and-share situation more than a stack-em-deep one. With locations in River North and Fulton Market, it's an easy yes for a group.
