Known as the “Gateway to the World,” Albany Park is the most ethnically diverse neighborhood in Chicago. From iconic theatre companies to museums, restaurants to parades to community gardens, our neighborhood is vibrant, alive, and growing. Families come here to take root alongside people who’ve lived here for generations. The small business is alive and thriving in Albany Park—and we love that. The story of Albany Park is the real story of America today.
West River is one of the only diners in the area so when you need that 2x4 (2 eggs, 2 sausage, 2 bacon, 2 pancakes) this is the place to go. Open from 6a-3p every day means you can come back for lunch as well. Check out the gyro—the Greek owners know their stuff.
