  1. 3.5
    Great place to catch up with friends. Very chill vibe and not too loud or too many people.

    I didn't love my brie/jam dish. It was mainly jam. However, would definitely go back.

  2. I really love this place, a great casual vibe, 2 for 1 brunch cocktails at the bar, an always on-point draft list, and simple but well executed American food.

    The smell of amazing sandwiches is always wafting about whenever I walk in and it's hard to say no to them. I've spent many consecutive hours sitting at the bar and never tired of the people, staff, or atmosphere – it's one of my favorite places to post up for a while on a weekend.

  3. This place is very charming and the staff were very friendly. However, I thought the food was overpriced for what we got for the food we got. I ordered the mac and cheese from the brunch menu and when it arrived, I found out it to be underwhelming. The mac and cheese came with a side of salad, but it was drizzled with generic salad dressing – nothing special, it was a bit of a sad salad. As for the mac and cheese itself, it didn't have any texture, it was all cheese and pasta and after a while, lost its appeal. I also felt like that might be a mac and cheese I would be able to make at home.

    I did want to like this place more.

  4. I've walked, driven, and skipped by this place and said I need to try it. It finally happened on a Saturday (Halloween to be exact) after laundry with a friend.

    I like the feel of this place when you walk inside. It was brunch time so it was pretty bright and with a good amount of people inside. We decided to sit at the bar. The bartender at the time…I don't remember her name was awesome. She was friendly without being too much. She also made sure we had everything we needed.

    My friend and I shared the baked eggs and French Toast. So happy we got the baked eggs….so delicious! I believe my friend asked for an extra piece of bread to drag through the dish to pick up the scraps…lol. The French toast was equally good too, but the star was the baked eggs. The cocktail to be had would be the craftman …such a nice way to have bourbon. Especially when it's 2 for 1!

    Definitely will be back!

  5. I really like this bar. It's cozy but has a large amount of space. There are beautiful lights lit all around the room that make it feel more intimate.

    Honestly, every time I've visited this bar there haven't been a lot of people, which I view as a great thing but obviously some would say differently. It's never too loud and the bartenders are always friendly. I ordered a cocktail tonight and the drink was very strong but still delicious. They have a small but solid selection of cocktails, drafts, wines, and liquors.  

    Definitely a great bar to stop in if you need to relax and take a break! Saint Catherine is fun for groups and for solo hanging out, it's almost like a coffee shop but with much better atmosphere.

  6. Best artichoke dip I've ever had. Worth the 30 minute wait. Props to the Sunday night chef.

    Pretty good beer selection. Good date spot as well.

    Would have given 5 stars if the Bartender hadn't cold shouldered the +2 we added to her 4 guests. Black chick with dreadlocks and plaid shirt. Dropped her and extra large tip left without acknowledgement.

  7. It's rare I wander by Prospect Heights, but I'm thinking I need to start making more trips, due in part to little gems such as The Saint Catherine.

    Tucked onto the corner of Bergen and Washington, this place has a dark yet romantic ambiance, candles flickering on tables as jazz renditions of Wu-Tang Clan play overhead. The bar is full, the drink list is refreshing, and the small yet sizable menu is satiating. I went for an order of mac & cheese, which was creamy and full-bodied with big noodles. The beau ordered a turkey sandwich with apples and brie that was tasty. We were pretty split on the artichoke dip, however; I found it to be a little pungent, while he found it to be amazing. I was digging the cans of Austin Eastciders, which were very dry and refreshing.

    I was there for an old roommate's birthday party, and they accommodated us well and reserved us a nice line of tables along the windows facing Bergen. However, the food seemed to come out in a reverse order; my old roomie and her friends ordered before the beau and I arrived. We ordered about 15 minutes after they did, but we got our food first and they didn't get theres for another 10 minutes after we did! Go figure. Heh.

    I really enjoyed the vibe this place threw out, and maybe I can convince the old roomie to have more events there so I can find an excuse to come Prospect Heights-way!

  8. Update on my review:  I was not aware that my brunch did come with home fried potatoes ( thanks Sara, for reaching out to me).  I thought I had to order them on the side, but my husband, who paid the bill, said that they were included in the $13.00 brunch price. So this makes it totally reasonable price ( a bargain in most places). My husband had the baked eggs and said that they were very good as well and that the rosemary toast was delicious. I do want to add that the side of thick cut bacon was very tasty as well. I updated my review to 5 stars as I think it is great when owners reach out to reviewers to clarify any issues and offer us Yelpers a 2nd chance to try them again and this is what Sara did.  It shows that they care about their patrons and  it is much appreciated as I do try to give fair and reasonable reviews.
