    I'm a regular here because it's down the street from my home,which I love. Yeah it's too crowded, but if you sit in the front individual seats, it's recommended if you want to enjoy food in a vintage look atmosphere. I heard it was a Dunkin' back in the 80s. The food makes up for how crowded it is. I've tried everything from breakfast to lunch. You can't really go wrong. Good hot coffee. For two people you're spending 34 -35 bucks, which is okay. I go every other weekend. Over all 4 to 5 stars.

    Two friends and I went to this diner last Sunday, Easter, and it was just half full at 10am! We all ordered differently and loved all of the dishes. Be aware of the 60 min limit on weekends, 90 min on weekdays... we would have liked to stay a bit longer, but they were strict about that time limit. I loved the cinnamon French toast, yum!

    This is a great little breakfast restaurant. While the restaurant is small and tight table spaces it makes up for it with a great menu selection and preparation of good quality food. Very nice family place!

    Bread & Butter is a cute cafe/diner near downtown Palatine. The inside has a handful of booths and tables to create a quant/personable experience. The staff always has a smile and food is quick to turn around as this brunch hot spot is always busy! I got the biscuits and gravy which was a great portion for myself. The gravy was flavorful and complimented the biscuit well. It wasn't overly carb forward nor smothered in gravy. The side of bacon was not my favorite as it didn't taste freshly prepared. My husband got the sausage gravy skillet which he raved about! Tip: Be prepared as there is a 3.99% charge for anyone using a credit card and the bathrooms are located outside.
