Adjusting to a temporary normal and Shepherd's Pie recipe

Adjusting to a temporary normal.

Now that we’re almost a week into the switch to delivery only, we’d like to give you an update on how it’s going so far.

We’re committed to keeping our kitchen open and serving you in this time of uncertainty. However, due to various factors beyond our control, some of you have experienced slow, or lack of, response to your delivery orders.

Because we use a third-party delivery system, The Chicago Diner is reliant on their capacity and evolving regulations during this medical outbreak. We ask for your patience and understanding.

Thank you for supporting The Chicago Diner, and we will try to do whatever we can to support you.

Be and stay well,
Michael, Mickey, Chef Jose, and the rest of our crew.

Caviar Delivery service daily, 12PM to 8PM until March 30.

Caviar has extended our delivery range up to 10-miles of our locations. Please check your app to see if you're within range. More delivery details are available on our website.

Also, Caviar is waiving delivery fees for us at this time but please don't forget to tip your drivers. They rely on tips the same way our wait staff does within our restaurants.

Note about carryouts and curbside pickups.
Out of an abundance of caution for our staff, we are not offering carryouts or curbside pickups at this time. Thank you for your understanding.

Gift cards are a great way to help your favorite restaurants survive during this trouble time.

Gift cards, cookbooks, and t-shirts are available at our online store and are also a great way to help us survive this troubled time. We're including some of our recipes in the emails this week and next but many more are available in our cookbook.
