Bread pudding pancakes, sandwiches, brunch & local grocery items
"Bread pudding pancakes may have initially got us in the door, but Southport Grocery is the definition of brunch. Everything on the menu is excellent and made in-house, from the seemingly simple breakfast sandwich to the gluten-free cupcake pancakes, and you might as well throw a grown-up pop tart in the mix just to be safe. Weekend waits should be expected, but the stretch of businesses along Southport just south of Addison will help you kill some time. Staring at the menu will not help kill time, but you’ll enjoy it anyway." - adrian kane, veda kilaru
"You took the day off to spend time with a friend visiting Chicago, and she wants to get away from The Bean and check out another neighborhood. Go to Southport Market in Lakeview. It’s a fantastic brunch place, but it also has great sandwiches, like the club that’s made on house-baked challah. Let’s get real, though—you really just came here as an excuse to eat the bread pudding pancakes, which are officially considered lunch after 12pm." - adrian kane, veda kilaru
"This Lakeview restaurant is one of our favorite weekday breakfast/brunch spots. You’ll find typical egg dishes, and also some not-so-typical gluten-free cupcake pancakes. Make sure you schedule a nap for afterward—during which you will probably dream about eating those pancakes again." - adrian kane, veda kilaru, john ringor
"If you’re a regular Infatuation reader, then you know what we’re about to say. If you’re new here, welcome. Settle in, because we have some great news. Southport Grocery is one of the best brunch spots in Chicago. A side of bread pudding pancakes is a must." - sam faye, adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru
"Our favorite sit-down breakfast spot is open seven days a week. Now, we realize that most people can’t have a full-blown sit-down breakfast in Lakeview during the week, but if you can make it work, you should. Don’t leave without trying the bread pudding pancakes." - sam faye, adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru
