Question: What Time Does QT Start Serving Breakfast??

The correct answer to this question is:

QT does not serve breakfast, and does not serve anything between 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.

Question: What Time Does QT Start Serving Breakfast?

In the past few years, QT has been one of my go-to places for happy hour drinks before the weekend, studying Greek mythology at the bar after class, or grabbing lunch with friends on a whim. I love spending time at this Champaign bar because you don’t need to know anyone’s name to enjoy yourself here — everyone is equally welcomed and accepted.

However, on a recent trip home to Champaign, I was told by a student that QT only serves breakfast from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on weekdays. This was surprising to me because it contradicts the QT website and my personal experiences at the bar — no one had ever told me this before.

Despite these claims, we decided to double-check with QT employees. We asked our server, the manager and an employee who was taking out trash if breakfast is served here and they all said no — not even late-night drunk munchies after last call is an option for hungry patrons here at QT.

So, do QT employees go to bed at midnight? Or does the bar close at 2:00 a.m. every single night? If you’re confused, too, read on because we’re going to investigate this situation together…

Question: Does QT Have Breakfast Food:

QT does not have any food available for breakfast. In fact, all hours of operation are posted online and include a disclaimer that states “No food is served.”

The fact that QT does not have any food to offer for breakfast might explain why the bar only stays open from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. As a manager at QT admitted, they serve breakfast from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., but only if the bar is empty and no one is ordering alcoholic drinks at that time of day. Otherwise, the bar will be closed to patrons during these times and no food will be served — even if you’re standing in line waiting for a bite to eat.

QT’s website is also quite clear on this topic — there is absolutely no mention of breakfast or any meal offering after 10:00 a.m. In fact, 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. is marked as “Restricted Menu Hours” on the menu.

Although this seems like a clear case of QT trying to get more money by charging for breakfast, it is important to note that QT is not alone in this practice. Many bars in Champaign, Urbana and Springfield charge for breakfast food during the hours listed above. Bars located near campus might offer free morning-after foods like bagels or yogurt, while other bars might offer lunch only until 1:00 p.m., but then charge for dinner at night once that hour hits.

Question: Is 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Breakfast Hours:

Upon further investigation, QT does have breakfast hours listed on their website. Each day, the bar includes an 11:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. time frame labeled “Breakfast Menu.” However, the website makes it clear that this menu should not be considered anything more than an attempt to get more customers into the bar during slow hours.

The menu says that “Breakfast is served Monday-Friday from 11:30 a.m.-2pm” and that “the breakfast menu will last all day Monday-Friday. However, due to later last call, certain items will be substituted or removed from the menu at 1:00 a.m.”

In other words, you can get breakfast from 11:30 a.m.-2:00 p.m. in-between Tuesday and Thursday and you can get dinner at QT in the same time frame — even if Friday and Saturday roll around before 2:00 p.m. has passed — but breakfast will not be served on Sunday or Monday, even though it is technically within the time range shown above.

Does Qt sell breakfast all day?

In addition to the time you must be at the bar in order to get breakfast, QT is one of the few bars in Champaign that does not serve breakfast during weekdays after 10:00 a.m.

QT reserves their breakfast hours for festivals, parties and other special events — like raising money for charity or hosting a movie-viewing with food and drinks included.

The only time you can expect QT to serve a full spread of eggs, pancakes, French toast, fruit and pastries from is on weekends between 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.

What does Qt have for breakfast?

QT has a full breakfast menu, but they do not actually serve the food from the breakfast menu from the hours listed above.

However, if you want to eat something that is on this menu, you have two options.

Since QT is located near Champaign-Urbana High School, QT will sometimes get food donations from there for their morning meal. If these items are not on hand by 11:30 a.m., you can expect to see some substitutions made for you — usually some hot cereal or some cold pancakes with syrup instead of a full plate of food.

If these items are on hand and ready to go at 11:30 a.m. on a Tuesday, you can expect to get them from QT for your meal. Other than these limited options, however, you will not get a full spread of food from the breakfast menu during this time frame.

QT is closed during these hours — even if you’re in line waiting for breakfast — and the bar only offers the substitutions mentioned above if they are on hand. If you’re waiting in line and they run out of food, walk around the corner to Dixie Chicken and grab some biscuits and gravy before coming back to QT. You’ll be glad that you did.

How much is pizza at QT?

Only one pizza is available during these hours: the breakfast pizza.

This is a ham and cheese blend pizza that is available between 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m., Monday through Friday — even if no one in line has ordered it yet!

If you’re craving pizza after drinking at QT, you can either order a slice or get a small pizza with your food order — but be prepared to pay; the small pizza will only cost $0.35 cents for a piece or you can get a small with a drink or order a full pizza with 3 toppings for only $5.00!

QT has outside food. What about inside?

QT does not serve food during these hours — even if you’re in line waiting for your breakfast item. You can eat outside, but you can’t get a full breakfast from QT from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, even if the bar is not busy and there is no food on hand.

You cannot order any food whatsoever from QT after 2:00 p.m.

Is QT serving food?

QT is famous for its chicken and waffles, and they do indeed serve this combination fairly often.

However, you can also expect to find this dish on the breakfast menu — QT will only sell this dish with a side order of hashbrowns or waffles — but it will not be served from 11:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., on weekdays or on weekends, even if the bar is not busy and there is no food on hand. On special occasions when QT does have food available on hand from 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m.

Is QT privately owned?

This is the only bar in downtown Champaign that is not private property. In fact, QT is owned by the same company that owns The Clybourne and Krannert Center.

In late 2010, QT’s lease was up for renewal and a controversy over whether or not the bar should remain open on campus ensued. The issue was brought before a University of Illinois board of trustees committee, but it was decided at this meeting that QT would remain open as long as it met a series of requirements, including receiving a “C” grade on its liquor license annually.

QT also had to agree to stop selling liquor by the drink from 11:30 p.m.-2:00 a.m.

QT, or “Quad Ten” as it is also known, is one of the most famous bars in Champaign.

Coming in at number three on Trip Advisor’s list of best bars in Champaign, QT has become so popular that the bar must rely on special events to get more business during the week.

While that may seem strange to some people, it doesn’t mean that the bar’s reputation is undeserved. This bar does have an impressive menu and low prices, but if you’re coming in for breakfast during weekdays between 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m., you’re going to have to settle for some cold pancakes or cereal if QT runs out of food.
