The Wicked Egg
About Us
At The Wicked Egg, we believe breakfast should be bold, craveable, and anything but ordinary.
Since opening in 2023, we’ve quickly grown from a new local breakfast spot into a community favorite in Libertyville. Known for our signature sandwiches and bowls, fresh juices, locally roasted coffee, and flavor-packed house-made favorites like Wicked Jam and Wicked Hot Sauce, we’re proud to serve food that keeps people coming back.
What truly sets us apart is the energy. From busy weekday mornings to packed weekend brunches, our goal has always been simple: serve fresh, high-quality breakfast with genuine hospitality.
Whether you’re a first-timer or one of the many regulars who’ve supported us since day one, we’re grateful to be part of the community and honored to be part of your morning routine.
Welcome to The Wicked Egg. Fresh mornings, served daily.

THE STORY
The Wicked Egg was founded by brothers George and Teddy with one goal in mind: create the kind of breakfast spot they felt their hometown area was missing.
Libertyville had plenty of fast food and no shortage of upscale brunch spots, but nothing in between. So they built something different: a fast-casual breakfast experience that’s high-quality, full of flavor, and designed for real life.
Whether you’re a commuter powering through the morning grind or someone recovering from a wicked night out, The Wicked Egg was created to be your go-to. No reservations. No fluff. Just bold food made fresh, served fast, and crafted to actually satisfy.
What started as a small local concept has quickly grown into a community favorite, with packed weekends, loyal regulars, and support that continues to blow them away every day.
From day one, George and Teddy wanted The Wicked Egg to feel like more than just a restaurant. They wanted it to feel like that place people crave, recommend, and keep coming back to.
And judging by the lines out the door, it’s safe to say: mission accomplished!

Slagel’s beef is dry-aged for 25 days, resulting in tender texture and deep flavor. You’ll taste the difference in every burger.Heritage Pork
