Pastores Brunch
Matthew Slaughter · 307 Google reviewsPastores Brunch — top-tier brunch in Lincoln Square. The kind of cooking that doesn't need to explain itself. The welcome here is real, and BYOB. "The fresh-squeezed orange juice was incredible, and the espresso drinks were spot-on" — Raf M [$]

“So good! The portions were great, food tasted clean & amazing, and everyone served us with a smile. Prices were great as well. I can’t wait to come back & try the rest of the menu! Breakfast burrito & chorizo skillet.”
“10/10 authentic Salvadorian food. Staff were really welcoming and accommodating for first-time diners. Salvadorian horchata is excellent - earthy and nutty without being too sweet. Pupusas are dynamite!”
“Excellent food, extremely friendly staff The coffee being great is another big plus. This is definitely a favorite”
“The staff is so friendly. The chilaquiles were the bomb!”
“i’ve been here twice now, and both times the food and service have been amazing! everyone who works here is so kind and the food is so delicious and very affordable. the whole restaurant was decorated for halloween and it was so cute and cozy!”
“Such a wonderful restaurant! Went in at 1:45pm and got seated in less than 5 minutes (thought I was there as a party of 1). Servers were all friendly and checked in a few times. I tried the Cafe De Olla and it was great! It was coffee with brown sugar and a cinnamon stick, and my server even came and gave me a refill twice. I had the Juanitos Tinga from the specials, portions were big! I paid $25 for the meal after tip and tax, and it's well worth it. I'd recommend coming in a smaller group, the tables are close together, and it can be a little cramped on the weekends, but I feel like that's pretty typical. Will be back again! :)”
“What a lovely experience!! So happy that they have gluten free options -- I got the gluten free pancakes and their texture and taste were both great. Their juice tasted super fresh and not too sweet. Great portions, and great quality!”
“Cute place for brunch. We tried the Mexican coffee and the iced chai latte and they were both delightful. The food was good too and the churros were excellent. Our waitress was very sweet and welcoming. Would come back!”
“We just had a delicious brunch here this morning and I’m already thinking about when we can go back again! Food was super fresh, and our waitress was super nice and attentive! Great food and great service :)”
