Roux sits next to the University of Chicago campus in Hyde Park, a New Orleans-inspired, all-day breakfast concept from Chef Charlie McKenna. It runs as a fast-casual cafe: order at the counter, then find a seat.
The menu leans into Louisiana-style breakfast and brunch, with beignets, breakfast potatoes, shrimp and grits, and a patty melt among the dishes reviewers mention most. A coffee shop operates within the space, pouring an exclusive Sparrow Coffee blend alongside pastries baked in house daily.
The Infatuation gave Roux a 7.6/10.
