Don’t believe the exterior. Delicious and flavorful food, big portions, great waitstaff. Tons of gluten free options. The tableside salad bar is cool too. Definitely will be back!
Always been a great experience at Brunch Cafe! Their staff is always welcoming and is great about making sure we are taken care of.
Our oldest has a bad dairy allergy and my wife can not have gluten. The staff has always been wonderful at making sure their options meet their allergy requirements and neither one of them has had any major issues except maybe eating too much haha.
The food is always excellent and the portions are solid. I've never left there hungry or disappointed with what I've ordered.
Great place to eat!
The food was absolutely 5☆☆☆☆☆ in freshness, flavor, portions, and presentation. Beautiful plating. The staff cheerfully appropriately accomodated my dietary request for no meat, dairy, oyster or fish sauce, and gluten free. High quality clean restaurant at very reasonable prices. In downtown McHenry with ample parking.
Chose Plum Garden for a birthday dinner as they had a gluten free menu for our son who has Celiac Disease. He ordered the Pad Thai off the GF creations menu, spicy with chicken. I even reiterated “gluten free” in the notes for the entree. He enjoyed it but then he ended up with an upset stomach and got sick into the next day so it clearly was either it GF or was somehow contaminated with gluten in some way. All the other food was great. But I would be careful if you have to eat gluten free and it’s a serious issue if you come into contact with anything.
Come here often in the summer and tonight had great service from Abby. She was very attentive and brought our dogs water as soon as we sat down! Food is always great and lots of gluten free options.
Note we didn't get pizza.
Their fries both regular & waffle have a coating so they are not gluten free. Boo for me. Got the grilled chicken sandwich no bun. It was decent.
My MIL got the chopped salad, no meat in it, was soggy. Husband had chicken fingers & fries, said they were ok. Waitress only checked on us as we were eating last bites .
It was also very loud inside but wasn't super busy. If that bothers you we suggest sitting outside if possible.
Ordered a 2 tier cake (lemon and carrot cake), cupcakes (S'mores, cookies and cream, gluten free chocolate) and sugar cookies for my parents 50th wedding anniversary for about 80 people. It was all amazing. I had several people ask where I got it from because the carrot cake was great, one of the best they have had. The S'mores cupcakes were amazing as well. Wasn't sure what to expect but were great. I will definitely order again for any party I have.
We used to have sandwiches at their old shop! We checked out the new shop and fell in love. You can now substitute for gluten free bread. As someone who's moderately intolerant, this was great to see! There's also gluten free perogies! I had the tuna on gluten free white bread and my partner had a ham and cheese sandwich. We both enjoyed it!
This place is the best! Food never disappoints. Sit at the counter for the train to deliver your food. My friend even had gluten free breakfast loaded with GF toast.
Eggs and noodles not to be missed. Was family owned just changed hands hopefully nothing changes. They decorate for every holiday and it's over the top awesome
I came here with my friends for coffee and had wonderful experience with the staff. I have a gluten allergy, and was unsure about the ingredients in the syrups and Becky was able to help me by giving me a clarification of the ingredients in them which made me feel much better about enjoying my coffee. It was a perfect cold brew and she was amazing help.
The crust was a little different than usual. I know there are new owners but I was hoping they’d keep the same recipe! Also my friend’s gluten free pizza was atrocious! Her crust was almost non-existent as was any toppings! I was shocked to see how little was on her pizza! Definitely NOT worth what she was charged for it. She did call and the place was gracious enough to give her credit. We ALWAYS order from Rosati’s so we hope the quality of the pizza improves. There are not many places that come close to Chicago tasting pizza - yours is (was?) the best!
As someone with celiac, I have NEVER had the chef personally come out to my table and discuss what I could and couldn't have, UNTIL My Place. The head chef/ Owner came out and walked me through the menu, and prepared special Naan bread for me. This level of care made the experience THAT much better. The food was AMAZING! My party all ordered the My Place curry. We all had orders of chicken as well. We ordered Tikka Masala (mild and spicy) butter chicken! We had Escargot as an appetizer and it was wonderful!
We love going to Kim & Patty's for breakfast, brunch, lunch but also for special occasions like Mother's Day and birthdays. We have taken family members from out of town and they all rave about the place and tell us they can't wait to come back. We have one cousin that goes there just to look at all the military photos, we have a large military family. One time I was super sick and ordered for pick up because the only thing I had a taste for is on their menu and always delicious. I wish the place was bigger and had more bathrooms to accommodate bigger groups on busier days but for day to day, it works well. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Prices are competitive. I've never had an issue with getting the wrong item or a plate made with incorrect ingredients. My sister is gluten free and she has been able to eat there with no issues and found several gluten free items on the menu.
