Loved the little relaxing cafe with tasty coffee . My friend was raving about the potatoes being very great! I had a delicious wrap
Nice spot with a great vibe—clean and quiet, just how I like it. The staff are super friendly, which is always a plus. The coffee was okay, nothing too memorable, but it did the job. The customizable omelette options were impressive, though it was a bit on the salty side for my taste, still pretty tasty overall.
There breakfast potatoes were the best I have ever had. The service is slow but I liked the waitress very nice. It was worth the wait with the delicious food!!!! Coffee was good too.
Great brunch spot! We ordered the ham Benedict, breakfast potatoes, and red velvet pancakes. DO NOT skip the potatoes! Our waitress Margaret was great. We will be eating here again!
Great experience dining at Stay Cafe for brunch! Free parking lot to the right of the restaurant, and a really spacious restaurant with options to dine or casually sit on couches while sipping on a latte or cocktail. I was impressed with their extensive coffee menu and breakfast + lunch options. Everything was delicious, but the Bananas Foster French Toast was definitely my favorite.
This place quickly became one of my new favorite brunch spots. The natural lighting is so inviting. The food is great quality and I loved the savory and sweet dishes I had. The servers were very attentive!
Chicago is known for its brunch and brunch places. It is one of the few cities that I know where brunch is a big thing. So naturally, I had to try Stay Cafe in Logan Square. First, I loved the interior. I thought their exposed brick walls with lush plants were so cool and captured the Chicago and Logan Square vibe. Plus, they have a huge feature fall featuring a cool mural in their sitting area. Second, they have parking. In Chicago, I cannot emphasize how important this is, especially a neighborhood like Logan Square that has a lot of parking restrictions. It’s right next store and it’s huge. It’s the parking lot for the closed CVS. Sadly, when I went to the restaurant, I wasn’t aware of it, and parked on the street a few blocks away. Third, their food is amazing. I ordered a latte, the red velvet buttermilk pancakes, the stay burger, house cut fries and the all American breakfast. The pancakes were light and fluffy and thankfully not over sweet. The all American breakfast was good and had the right components. However the burger was great and the had cut fried were phenomenal. Fourth, the service was very good. The wait staff was nice and the food came out quickly.
In sum, you definitely need to try this spot and add it as a go to brunch spot.

Stay Cafe is the breakfast/brunch spot that Logan Square needed Open 7 days a week from 7am - 2pm, you can get tasty breakfast, brunch or lunch! They are offering a great selection of food AND drinks and is the perfect spot to get your day started. The vibes are chill and relaxed and as customers start to pile in, you get the cool, neighborhood vibes. Plenty of families were there, so feel free to bring the kiddos too!
Food that I tried:
Smoked Salmon Benedict
Banana Foster French Toast
Fluffy Buttermilk Pancakes
Breakfast Potatoes
Scrambled Eggs
Everything was GOOD! The bananas foster French toast was delicious and I loved the candied pecans on top.
However - BREAKFAST POTATOES!!!! O. M. G. They were BEYOND GOOD! They're made with a black pepper pecorino aioli that is crazy good. These are the best breakfast potatoes I've had anywhere!
They also have mimosa flights and an espresso bar. Sweet!
Try their Sister location a couple of doors down - Bad Habit. It’s sooooooo delish and one of my favorite restaurants in Logan Square. I love them!
Pop in one morning to try them for yourself and tell 'em that Bri from Planes and Plates sent you and be sure to follow me for more great recs around Chicago and beyond. Enjoy!
