Located in Chicago, IL, the North & Clark Café offers a unique dining experience with a historical twist. Serving as a popular gathering spot for Museum visitors and locals, the café takes pride in its fresh-made menu options and distinctive daily specials.

Specializing in Chicago-style hot dogs, all-day breakfast, and renowned Windy City burgers, the café caters to various tastes. Whether patrons are craving coffee, tea, craft beer, or wine, they can enjoy their meal in the café, on the charming patio at the corner of North & Clark, or opt for convenient online ordering.

One standout feature of the café is its offering of Hojarasca® Cookies from El Nopal Bakery®, a nod to Chicago's rich culinary history. These cookies, with a recipe dating back to the mid-20th century, pay homage to the legacy of a local bakery that was a beloved institution in the city for over six decades.
