Svea Restaurant

The 22 Best Breakfast Spots In Chicago

"This cash-only breakfast spot is an Andersonville staple, and highlights the neighborhood's Swedish history. The quaint wooden space has a couple of pieces of Viking artwork, blue and yellow chairs, and a menu with specialties like airy Swedish pancakes topped with lingonberry jam, smoky falukorv sausage, and meatballs with gravy. If you can’t decide what to get, order a combination plate. Not only is it the best way to try a bit of everything, but it also gives you the opportunity to publicly declare you want a “Swedish Tease.” " - sam faye, adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru
