Egg House

Egg House is a breakfast and lunch restaurant at 2 W St Charles Rd, on the corner of Main Street and St. Charles Road in downtown Lombard. Owners Toni Zekjiri and Bani Ismili took over the corner cafe shortly before the COVID-19 pandemic, and ABC7 Chicago profiled the business in 2022 for growing through those years. The kitchen makes meals from scratch at modest prices.
