Pierrot Gourmet at The Peninsula

A quick, 24 hours in Chicago, and you cannot miss having brunch at the Pierrot gourmet !!!!! Service is always impeccable, and the food is divine. Don’t forget to grab one of their amazing French desserts on the way out!

Great food and a lovely inviting atmosphere! The service was kind and attentive and there were SO many great desserts and pastries to choose from. We would recommend Pierrot to anyone looking for a sweet and/or a nice breakfast!

Great atmosphere and amazing food! The French soup is totally a hit. Loved the pastries and Matcha Latte.

Beautiful sit down or to go restaurant with friendly and efficient service. Tried a cappuccino which had a thick layer of froth on top. It tasted perfect. The hazelnut cruffin was gourmet. It had a healthy amount of hazelnut filling so I removed some since was a tad much. The regular coffee was very good as well. The southwest burrito was large and tasty. Portion sizes are good for sharing! Even the bag that I was given for my leftovers was nice . Overall, a very nice little breakfast restaurant in the river north area of downtown Chicago. I will definitely be back!

I love this place, very classy and elegant, I went to lunch with friends and I felt I was in Paris! Food and service are excellent the dessert is wonderful too. But expensive

Had the Spinach and Mushroom Quiche and it was divine. Atmosphere and decor were chic with an artisan European vibe.

This place was great! General Notes: A couple quick notes of clarification: 1) Some of the photos of the establishment on Google Maps look like they are pre-renovation. The photos with the green and white color palette represent the current status of the place, 2) the place feels more like a café than a breakfast establishment, which may matter to some people, and 3) they stop service of breakfast around 11:00am. Food: I ordered the Quiche Lorraine. Loved it - full of flavor and the texture was just right. Crust was flakey and golden brown. Came with a light salad that paired well with the richness of the main dish. Coffee: Brewed correctly, not burned. Wish I had asked what brand of coffee bean they used. Liked the coffee mug. Requested cream and they provided a large creamer! Bonus points. I like a judicious pour of cream in my coffee and with the smaller creamers other restaurants use I usually run out quickly. Mood: The place is without a doubt curated very carefully. There is a consistent theme. The furniture, cutlery, dishware, and location outfitting is very professional and tasteful. Pierrot offers a different aesthetic relative to your typical Chicago breakfast location. I personally was not the biggest fan of the minty/shamrock green color and how brightly lit the space was, but this is my personal preference. Service: Explained the menu well. A member of our party has Celiac disease (i.e., gluten free) and the waitress worked through this without a problem. Drink refills and check both came quick. No service problems, thank you! Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free options for people with Celiac disease!

Thank Rebecca for her stellar customer service on the Chinese Lunar New Year afternoon. My girlfriend and I were so hungry and the line ahead of us was 12 people but Rebecca went out of her way to ensure we were seated within 5 minutes. She was so nice and sweet under pressure. Rebecca recommended the Dragon presentation outside of the hotel within 15 minutes. You could not ask for a better employee!!

Excellent pastries, especially the cinnamon rolls and macarons. Coffee was good. Gluten-free option available. Great service.
