Stray Hen Cafe Elmhurst, Illinois

Very nice restaurant! Service was wonderful..Food was delicious! My boyfriend had the French toast and I had pancakes. Will most definitely will come back

They have a great menu. We tried the O'Brian and Papi Chulo skillets. He had the cinnamon roll pancakes, and I had the apple churro French toast. We will definitely be back.

I had a huge bagle with cream cheese, Avacado, and a huge pile of very tasty locks with a side of fresh fruits. The waitress was friendly, and the service was fast. The next time I'm in the area, you can bet I'll be there.

My family and I entered our name online and waited for about 20 minutes, which wasn’t an issue. While waiting, I grabbed a coffee from a local shop. When our table was ready, I still had my fresh cup of coffee. However, upon being seated, I was informed I couldn’t have it. Although I noticed the sign about no outside food or drink, I didn’t think it would apply to a small cup of coffee. Yet, it did. When I inquired about the policy, I was told it was a health code violation, which I knew wasn’t true. I mentioned this to the host, but they insisted it was the manager’s decision and pointed to the signs. It’s understandable if I had brought in food from elsewhere and occupied a table, but this was just a cup of coffee. It would have been more honest to admit the policy was to encourage purchasing drinks from them. They lost my future business over one cup of coffee. A questionable decision indeed.

Was recommended Stray Hen Cafe from a receptionist in the area and she wasn’t wrong! Food was amazing. We were greeted and sat right away. Jennifer is a great server with a great personality. Will be returning again, it’s a must.
