    Tweet is my favorite brunch spot right now. Get there early. Great for kids! Tons of activities for the kids and give them sliced bananas and bread for a warm up. Gluten free options. Chilaquiles!

    always super busy for Sunday Brunch & yet it's all so worth it in the end. If you're in the hood make you stop and check it out. Don't forget that it's cash only but if you do they have an 🏧 on hand

    Breakfast burritos 'n mimosas! Tweet is the best combo of super fun ambiance (brunch spot by day/gay bar by night) and huge portions of inventive food. The menu is enormous and you can't go wrong.

    Always get a bloody & a tea bc of presentation. The coffee cakes to start are addicting. Mt veggie for w/ tahini sauce is a go to. With any choice your plate will be 100% empty without realizing it.

    Tweet offers quite an eclectic menu from breakfast to dinner, but their kimchi is a must try! This Korean dish is served with fermented cabbage, steamed rice and veggies all in one magical bowl. Read more

    What's good at Tweet? Everything! I'll usually go for the two scrambled eggs with lox and cream cheese, or one of the many omelete options, or a lox and spinach eggs benedict, or... Everything is good

    The Cornbeef Hash is the best I have ever had. They use real corned beef and make it themselves.

    Service is great! Gluten menu. Try the crab Benedict. If you are from Maryland bring OBay lol. It's not a Maryland crab cake but its good. This dish is a lil pricey to be served w/hashbrowns.

    They take gluten free brunch very seriously here, right down to the complimentary pastry that precedes your meal. You will not be starved for options.

    Mt. Vegan was awesome. I had the sesame sauce and it has brown rice, jalapeños, carrots, kale, some corn tortillas. Just great.

    Best Chilaquiles outside of Guanajuato! But you gotta ask for the eggs to be estrellados (over easy) not scrambled; so much better with the yolk running into the corn tortilla chips...

    Try to go early for brunch on a weekend. Like 9 or 10. By 11 on you'll be waiting around ah hour. However, it's worth the wait! Banana pancakes are amazing.

    Great place for brunch! However, the cash only makes me feel as if I'm in Wicker Park. ATM inside (THAT WORKS - which makes me feel like I'm not in Wicker Park)

    Can't go wrong ordering pork chop & biscuits with gravy. Eggs Benedict are hit or miss, sometimes yolks too hard. Hash-browns are decent. Bacon scores well.Great service. Cash only. Coffee bitter. A-

    The corn beef and hash is a must...real corned beef that's been chopped up (not that mushy canned kind). The hashbrowns are perfect. Country Benedict is also superb.
