I love this place. The atmosphere is family-friendly and the staff has been the same for as long as I can remember. It is really the only place in Wilmette to get your standard cheese-fries, chicken tenders, mozzarella sticks, grilled cheese, etc. for a reasonable price and without having to go to an actual sit-down restaurant. (The set-up at Homer’s includes an order and pick-up type system where they call your name when your food is ready)
This is your typical neighborhood grill with excellent food and delicious homemade ice cream. You can also purchase the ice-cream by the carton to take home. In all my years of going to Homer’s, I have noticed an odd following for their grilled cheese. They are pretty great, but they are just a standard grilled cheese-I’m not sure what makes people love them so much, but they’re just good!
