OK, I love to eat. I can put away my share of food, and still ask ""are you going to eat that?"" Not at Ann Sather. The omlettes are so fluffy they take up the entire plate. You're going to want some fresh squeezed OJ, some (deservingly famous) cinammon rolls, and some sort of egg based breakfast. The wait staff is INCREDIBLY nice, almost rediculously so. The owner Debbie will frequently come up and ask how things are. I've even had her come over and slap down some of her brownies for me to try. The crowd tends to be locals and, er, older folks. Being a pierced out long hair, I draw my share of looks, especially in this traditional, pastel colored environment. Bottom line, if you want breakfast and you're in Andersonville, you'd be crazy or stupid to pass up Ann Sather. Pros: BIG portions f/ cheap, super friendly, crazy delicious Cons: closes around 2 or 3, can't walk afterwards more

great smell immediately when you enter the restaurant. The food tastes great, looks great andthe portions are just right. more

I LOVE ANNE SATHERS! I first came upon Ann Sathers while I was at school at DePaul and one of my roommates suggested it for breakfast. It is conviently located off of the brown or red lines, and they also have free parking which is a big, big plus. The hashbrowns are fabulous and the breakfast always leaves me full. Also, they have the best waiter (JOSE I LOVE YA) there! I have taken friends and family, and yet to here a complaint! Pros: Great food, Great Service, Parking/ Public Trans Cons: ambiance is average, can be crowded more

Ann Sather has wonderful breakfast & the city's best cinnamon buns ,if you have'nt had them yet i urge you to do so. The place is usually very crowded for breakfast but well worth the wait ,and the chef Andy Winkle is an awesome guy and a great cook. Keep up the good work Ang........Shawni Pros: great atmosphere, awesome cinnamon buns Cons: crowded more

Ann Sather is a Chicago institution. If you're visiting the city on vacation, it's a ""must go to"" for breakfast -- but for best atmosphere, be sure to visit the one in Andersonville (5207 N. Clark) or the original one on Belmont near the el. The food is Swedish-American. Try the lingonberry pancakes. No matter what you order, though, cinnamon rolls are ever-present and will be brought to your table. Enjoy. more

First time at Ann Sathers, great breakfast!! The one on Broadway was excellent. Nice crowd. A must try. . .for breakfast lovers. more

the belmont location is the best breakfast place. casual atmosphere, good service, great breakfast, known for their cinnamon rolls. more

best cinnamon rolls anywhere. period. i have never taken anyone to ann's who didn't love it. Pros: affordable, right by the train Cons: crowded more

Really great! I highly recommend breakfast here! Try the crabcake benedict - YAY! The asparagus and havarti omelet is also wonderful! Of course, if you've never tried them, have the cinnamon rolls - but share it! If you eat the wjole thing, most won't have room for the real food! Pros: Friendly, Fresh, Delicious Cons: Bad parking, Crowded, Loud Children more

I like this Ann Sather much better than the one on Belmont. This one seems cleaner, quainter and just an all-around nicer experience. The sandwiches are huge, especially after indulging in those famous cinnamon rolls (as if anyone could resist). The whole place, including an upstairs open when things get really hopping, looks more like something out of a movie than real life -- can anyplace still really be this wholesome? -- but you are convinced by meal's end. Forsake the hustle, bustle and edginess of the Belmont location for a comfortable meal here. more
