Restaurants near Benld

“Good cheap and cheerful place for a drink or quick bite. Very limited menu, but inexpensive and well prepared with good portion sizes. Bring cash as they don't accept debit/credit cards and their ATM has a 3 dollar fee.”

“Was a little disappointed they didn't have the bocce ball set up anymore, but friendly staff and a good atmosphere. Recommend stopping if you are looking for a place for a couple cold beers while traveling on Route 4”

“Much more accepting and comfortable setting than the louder flashy places nearby. Felt relaxed, easy going.Vegetarian options: Most drinks are animal free, pizza and sandwiches available, sans-meat/brain food.Parking: Enough.Kid-friendliness: Well, it's a bar/tavern/gaming establishment, so.. no, most people frown on drunken children.Wheelchair accessibility: Entrance is level.”

“Great food. My family and I have eaten at jodanni's for years even when they were papa jodanni's and in the building next to Randy's market. Their salads and rolls are wonderful.”

“Very chill vibe if that's what you're after. More than that, they have excellent coffee and baked goods. The Lemon Turnover was a crowd favorite and the German 5 grain bread was scrumptious. The Bear claw was subtle not cloyingly sweet.”

“I picked up a birthday cake. It's the third we've picked up here and there will be more. They are amazing decorators and the cakes are delicious. Their donuts are always great also.”

“It's an amazing bohemian spot for all people and dog friendly patio . Cozy on a winter day and chill on a summer day. Features indoor and outdoor seating connected via open door. An absolutely amazing atmosphere created by owners Tracy and his father Bruce. Always a warm welcome any day during open hours.”

“Definitely recommend, I go here just about everyday and get vanilla iced latte with an extra shot of espresso and it taste really great. 100% definitely recommend going to rise and grind.”

“I didn't pay for this trip, so can't talk about pricing . Access to the building was rough due to weather and sidewalk condition. Food was excellent. I would visit again. Staff was very friendly and patient for such a large group. Well done.”

“We enjoy going here on Friday nights for karaoke. It's always a fun time. The staff are great, and the food options are plentiful. We also have lots of softball games here, and the outside bar allows for food and beverages without missing any of the action. Great place!”

“i've enjoyed many meals in this establishment, and I've never been disappointed and always highly pleased!! This particular trip was only with the intent of enjoying one of their Bloody Mary with a close friend. As usual, it's just the best thing ever ina bloody Mary! Condiments of dill pickle, a baby slim Jim, olives, green bean, lime and lemon as garnish completed the perfectly balanced drink! The service is phenomenal.... server Lauren is beautiful, clean and efficient moving quickly and fluidly. The ambience is better than just about everything in the area. The one thing that I question is the little bit of dirt and dust on the mirror lol .......it does add to the ambience, of a small town bar and grill!! overall it be hard-pressed to find a better place for a Bloody Mary and great food.!!”

“This place was amazing. We were traveling through and took a risk to stop. Outside is not fancy but inside is adorable and very interesting! Owners were very friendly and food was amazing! Like nothing we have had before and we travel quite a bit! We had the ma barker-a must try! The momos were also so good which is their secret specialty! Will definitely stop next time we are in area! And they own Great Danes that will come out if you ask!!”

“My family and I have been going to this dennys for years. Jazmin has been taking care of us for as long as I can remember, she truly is an fine example of leadership and accountability. Chandler is also amazing in the kitchen. The food is great but it’s the staff that keeps us coming back !”

“Best chicken soft tacos ever! Go on Monday and Tuesday for the taco special and pig out!! Don't forget some cheap margarita specials to go along with your meal too. Oh, and best table salsa - HANDS DOWN as well as the Enchiladas Suizas!!!”

“Very cool and historic place to eat. Our server Ariel was very nice and service was fantastic. Had the hamburger horseshoe and my mom had the prime rib. They have the best salad bar out there which is like a meal itself. You also get free dessert with your meal. If you are ever in the area you must stop ”

“Great place to eat after shopping.It has all the trappings of a 1950s diner, with additional decoration for immersion. Its swirling ice cream cone storefront catches the eye.The food is very reasonably priced, and was much better than I was expecting. Many of these throwback diners have average or terrible food, but this one was a surprise.”

“Wings were fantastic (bone in and boneless), daughter loved the BLT, shrimp baskets were good too- MIL'S hush puppies were still frozen but they rectified that right away. Love stopping here any time we come through the area.Kid-friendliness: Boneless wings worked great for the kiddos wanting chicken nuggets and everyone loved the seasoned fries.”

“Service was quick, prices weren't as high as alot of other coffeehouses, coffee was 10/10 I got the blended cheesecake mocha with whipped cream and loved it! Atmosphere is super homey and relaxing.”

“No matter what I eat at lumpy's it is all delicious especially their fried chicken dinners with a house salad with their house garlic dressing and onion rings. And the price is very reasonable always!!. I have never had a bad meal there and I would recommend this place to everybody!!!”

“It's my favorite bar in the area between Mt Olive & Hamel. The only thing that would make it better would be arcade games but it's still my favorite. Maybe in the future!?! I told one of the owners so...?”

“I love visiting here whenever I can. They have great food, awesome staff, and an excellent drink selection. The owner is a huge supporter of all of our local businesses and Rooster's has become a staple in our community.”

“This particular gambling location seems to get to less traffic of any the local slot machine oriented business.This to me makes absolutely no sense because it is by far into a very large degree, the friendliest establishment of it's kind.Additionally lattes and mochos and coffes are sold.I've seen other places virtually kick you out because you spent a few minutes on your phone and then just keep hitting in there on the game room machine.I think it's a customer you have the right to pause is there being treated like it's a race for them to get your money.This is rather small so the lack of business here mean not the other owners are simply better known and therefore a quality establishment is appreciated less than one with owners that have small town recognition.I'll list list specifically the ways in which they are in my opinion a vast improvement over the other places. I'm being discreet by calling an opinion.1.) Friendlier staff.2.) Does not make you feel like they are continually watching you to see how much you're spending and how fast.3.) Like other places will offer free refreshments for gamblers but they do not wait until you've spent hundreds of dollars before they do. Most places that they don't see you losing money, they won't offer you anything.4.) The best overall atmosphere. I personally have a high anxiety level to the point I'm on medications. It doesn't take a lot to make me uncomfortable but this particular location feels more like visiting someone you know.I intend on giving reviews of all the local slots. Having lived up here and moved back, it was almost shocking to see so many.My time is the youth was spent between this area and an impoverished area near the Ozarks. So my first instinct sings so many businesses gambling was to consider the impact it has on lower income individuals and have addicted natures. This area is more affluent than where I spent most of life.The aforementioned business tries to incline more than slots.I visited all the local places after being away since high school. You don't have to spend a lot to keep busy but of course some of the places will try to make you feel that way.When I see a business that I feel they have experienced - that it was a terrible business but taking up the majority of local business in the services it provides, I try to do a detailed that is fair and objective. By that same merit, whenever a higher quality place not getting the business it deserves, I try to do the same thing.I've had times my posts were read by thousands. Posts about smaller town business places usually do not get the same attention but in the spirit of what these reviews are for and that is to share the real truth and give readers a proper glance of which places they have to choose from, one could always. Next I'll be doing circle k. While primarily a gas station, a lot deserves to be said. As for this place thumbs up.”

“This was a great place to eat. My husband and I shared our 4 years together at your establishment and it was so worth it. The flavors in the pizza were delicious. Also this pizza was reheated in the microwave the next day and the crust was still the way it was when it came from the oven. The young lady who waited on us was so polite and made sure we had everything we needed.”

“1st time at the Litchfield restaurant location. Each of us had a different menu selection. Each of us was extremely pleased with our selections. Looking forward for a return trip.”

“This pizza is honestly just unreal. Basically, all of the fare is amazing. But to have pizza like this in such a small town setting, and at such an affordable price...is just unbelievable. The topping selection is phenomenal, the garlic romano crust is... ...so good. Just order some Little Italy's today...you will not be disappointed!”

“Really great good and extremely generous portions, they have to staple the top of the Chinese takeout boxes because it is stuffed, menu could seem a tad pricey for some but for how much you get it’s a deal, could easily feed two with one dinner order if you both eat rice. Very friendly staff. Always pleased when I order here.”

“Called in for takeaway as we were staying in a nearby hotel.Friday night and extremely busy, but not detrimental to the service. Food came quickly and it tasted good.I can see why it's popular. I'd eat here.”

“This place is awesome! The music is good with a variety for everyone.the owners are great people who go out of their way to make sure your experience is the best that it can be the regular patrons are friendly and the service is prompt..I will be back andi am definitely bringing friends...”

“I ordered a little last minute and not only were they so kind to assure me they didn’t mind, but made the best breadsticks known to man. Thank you so much for being my favorite late night go to!”
