The St. Charles Shopper Has Breakfast on the Fox
The Copper Fox Cafe offers an online coupon that gives you something free with every meal.
We stumbled upon The Copper Fox Cafe one Sunday morning for breakfast.
Even though I'd passed it a million times, I'd never been there.
It ended up being one of those times when you get a call from a friend before you're seated and, the next thing you know, four other people are meeting you for breakfast.

We all had a great time and were pleasantly surprised with the Mediterranean twist on many of the dishes.

Their breakfast menu is inventive yet classic. If you like eggs benedict, I'd recommend a taste of one of their many different styles of the dish.
The next time I get a taste for it, I'll definitely be back to try another one. But when I return, I'll bring the coupon for free coffee.
The Alaskan features fresh crabmeat over a buttery croissant. It was very rich and totally hit the spot with my Bloody Mary.
Owner Dimitri Lolis is no stranger to owning a restaurant in St. Charles.
He ran Dimetri's on the east side of St. Charles for many years and managed The Trophy Room in the Hotel Baker. Lolis also co-owned Tribeca in Batavia. In 2009, Lolis opened The Copper Fox Cafe.
The decor is warm and modern, making it a perfect treat for a great breakfast without the pancake house feel.
The Copper Fox is open for breakfast 7:30 a.m. Monday through Saturday and 6:30 a.m. Sunday.
