Pompette — top-tier food in Bucktown. The atmosphere is half the draw here. Worth ordering a drink, because the bar holds its own. "The brunch was delicious with plenty of choices, from eggs and bacon to fresh salads and sandwiches" — Eva Erdin [$$]

“Delicious food and friendly service. So glad I got to check out Pompette, which had been at the top of my list for a while now. I went for brunch on Valentine’s Day. We enjoyed cocktails, crab croquettes, the chicken sandwich, and the friend toast. Every dish was perfect and rich with flavor. The chicken sandwich was my favorite part of the meal. The French toast was so moist in the inside pairing perfectly with the tart blueberries. Our lovely waitress Rebecca needs a ginormous raise!!! I’ll be back. 🤗”

“Yum! This place was so delicious! My fav was grilled hanger steak with unbelievably good potatoes! But everything else we ate was also great! Perfect for sharing food!”

“Pompette is a perfect neighborhood spot! Busy enough on any given night, that it feels like the place to be, but not so busy that you have to book a table months in advance. And of course, excellent food and drinks! I love to come here with friends, or by myself at the bar. Seasonal favorites include the beet martini, and the lamb couscous.”

“The brunch was delicious with plenty of choices, from eggs and bacon to fresh salads and sandwiches. Everything came out hot and well-prepared, and the portions were just right. The coffee was fresh and the staff made sure drinks were always topped up. The atmosphere felt relaxed and welcoming, perfect for a late morning meal with friends.”

“Pompette was great! Wonderful cocktails and wine, only thing I would change is the size of the cheese portion. It was tiny for $8. The gnocchi and scallops were my personal favorite dish. Can't wait to go back!”
