Trying new breakfast sandwiches is one of my favorite morning adventures, and Brass Tack at the Waldorf Astoria did not disappoint. This upscale café offers both a luxurious atmosphere and flavorful breakfast dishes.

To start, I ordered a classic vanilla latte along with some of their bakery items: monkey bread, strawberry hot pocket, and pain au chocolat.

For the main event, I went for the Breakfast Sandwich, featuring thick-cut applewood-smoked bacon, egg, potato rosti, sriracha aioli, and American cheese on a potato bun. Every bite was packed with flavor — from the smoky bacon to the perfectly fluffy bun.

While breakfast at the Waldorf Astoria may not be an everyday treat, Brass Tack is the perfect spot for a special morning meal. The cozy, refined atmosphere paired with standout dishes makes it a must-visit for brunch or breakfast in Chicago. I’ll definitely be back for the sandwich again.
