“Awesome place! Excellent food!”

“Went her last Sunday and had a great lunch with my girlfriend. We both ordered cheeseburgers which both came out fast, hot, and delicious! I ordered my with fried pickles which were very good. She got the Mac and cheese bites which were fricken awesome! Just wish the ranch was a bit thicker and not so runny. The burger was great. Big, juicy, and just all around awesome. Would have liked a better quality mayo since the packet it came with sucked. All around good quality cheeseburger though. My girl had a Bloody Mary and I grabbed a sip and it was good as well. Could have been garnished a bit better but was still super good. Nice laid back atmosphere and wasn’t too loud inside. Will be back. Probably make it a once a month thing now since it’s just in town and not a far drive.”

“Great bar/restaurant. Very friendly people. Kid friendly”

“Love how polite the staff is and the food is very good.”

“Great establishment! Owners and staff go out of the way to make sure very well taken care of. We held a surprise bday party of 40 or so friends and family at The Wine Cafe and it was a great time. Very friendly staff and knowledgeable on wines and drinks offered . I would definitely recommend hosting an event there and plan on doing again as well. Thanks again The Wine Cafe for making our event perfect.”

“Always a positive experience with this one. The pizza ?? is amazing it brings back memories of my young ? child years into a young adult. Because I was raised on the South side of Chicago and the Italian restaurants were so great back then. Rosati's pizza is the best in our current area. Yes it is more costly but I would rather have this food once a while compared to awful food more often. Check out the Windy city ? classic Pizza as long as you can handle the hot ? pepper ?️ flavor they add to it?”

“Ordered pizzas tonight for the first time here and it was amazing, some of the best tasting pizzas we have had. We will definitely be ordering again, thanks for the amazing supper tonight!!”

“Love Recos, had a great time. Love my people. Had a great experience, great people great experience. Country Strong.”

“Started coming to the cove about a week or two ago and honestly everyone is so kind and so informative. So far I have only tried the teas and let me say they are ALL absolutely amazing! Delicious taste, no crash, helping my acne recover from every day coffee prior to coming to the cove. I look forward to trying each menu item! Highly recommend!”

“Our first time stopping in and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit! Great place to relax and enjoy craft beers. They truly have something for everyone! Game room is really cool, atmosphere is relaxing and the establishment is incredibly clean! This is a must stop when in the area!”

“I DO NOT RECOMMEND We come here often and today was seriously ridiculous they couldn't even tell us they were out of biscuits and gravy which was our whole order and they do not serve lunch until 11am and we were there at 10:30. So I literally just paid 13 dollars for drinks that we didn't even get to drink since they were out of food.”

“We love taking our family of 7 for breakfast! Always friendly service!”

“I had a great dining experience here at Chick-A-Dee! Had dinner with my friends here and we are pleased and impressed. The whole place was huge, clean, and bright. Their menu is wide and everything has fair prices, good quality, and delicious. They also have fantastic service. All the staff was friendly and attentive. Will definitely recommend them to others.”

“Excellent staff, lots of laughs, great music inside and outside!!”

“Great place to eat. But a lot of the times they are closed when it says they are open. Like today . It is Tuesday and they are supposed to be open 6-1 and at 8 am they are closed. Not sure why. But when they are open they have great food. And super friendly.”

“Got some wings lastnight! Best Wings in the area! 10/10”

“Haydens is a great place to eat! they are the best restaurant in town. The food is wonderful and their soups are out of this world. I only wish they would get this website up to date and working properly. I try to check it every day and am often disappointed with it not being updated.”

“I spotted a pub, a nice brick structure attached to a house. Like many neighborhood pubs, the sign showed the Old Style beer logo. I walked in through the doors. I attracted attention. Nobody cared that I had insisted on wearing a mask. I looked unfamiliar.A woman called out, "How are you doing, sweetie?" "Oh, I'm fine. Passing through. I stopped for Tom's Sweet Corn, and need to stretch my legs." A man smiled, "So, you're not a local." I thought, "It would take a lifetime to become a local. All I need to do is sit down and order an Old Style." "I live over in Streator," I offered, hoping to look local enough. A woman squealed, "I'm from Streator!" "How about that. I'm thirty miles east of Streator and I meet a neighbor!" I excused myself. I had downed an extra large soda at Jimmy Johns in downtown Kankakee.The rest rooms shared a sink in the hall between the biffys. The wood door suggested an age of one hundred years old or more. Wood gets drier and lighter as it ages. The door handles reminded me of the late Nineteenth Century, just a touch hand made.I wondered, "Should I buy a bar stool buddy a shot to say thanks for a clean restroom?" I walked over to the bar. I spotted a freezer stocked with six dollar frozen pizzas. Not one vegan pizza I felt sure. Hunger had arrived. A set of coolers showed off all the cans for sale. "Might I buy a Coke?" The woman bartending probably owned the bar. "Sure, that will be a dollar". Thank you I said as I gave her two dollars. "It's only a dollar, hon." "I wish to show my gratitude," I said with a smile."What brings you this way?" said the man who deduced my traveling status. "I was in Kankakee." "Kankakee? What brought you to Kankakee?" "I'm learning how to be a census taker. I count twenty at the pub. Let me write that down." He laughed. I had satisfied his curiosity by making him laugh. "You take care of yourself, hon," said the one woman who greeted me first when I came inside. "Yes, please take care of yourself, too. I'll be back".It seemed like the right thing to say. I stepped out the door into the rays of a sun setting to the west. A John Deere gator, a blend between a tractor and a golf cart, proceeded towards Tom's corn. I spotted a few more as I drove to Tom's to score a dozen sweet ears.Tom's yard looked like a John Deere commercial. One farmer arrived pulling a hay wagon full of people behind his yellow and green John Deere tractor. A man set at the wheel of his gator, closest to the picnic table where awaited the corn. "Hey, I bet you're Tom!" "That's right, I'm Tom." "Are you hosting a corn roast, Tom?" "Nope, it's a community gathering." "Might I pick out a few ears?" "Sure, hello yourself. There's the cash box. Put in what you want. Put in nothing. Take all you want."I started to fill a plastic bag after sliding two dollars in the slot cut in the cash box. I thought that fair for six ears. "What's the event, Tom?" "It's a community picture. We just repainted our town sign, and fixed up the landscaping." I hadn't noticed. People kept arriving in vans, by car and even by ATV. "Is this a Lions Club project?" "Nope. We disbanded our club. The national wanted too much money every year. We just do our own community club. A long time resident left money in a will for the sign".He patted the seat of his gator. "Any body need a ride." The sign stood right across the street. "Thank you, Tom. How long will you be picking sweet corn?" "Straight through Labor Day. You drive through often?" "First time by. Have a good night."I counted twenty people walking over from the pub. It looked as if every two hundred citizens of Reddick planned to pose, smiling at the sunset. Soon, I”

“Best bar food ever!! Audrey was our server and she is absolutely amazing!! She ensured we were served promptly, our food was hot and the beers cold!! Hands down, best bar in the area!!”

“Passing through town and I stopped by on a whim. Boy did I nail it! They were very welcoming. Seems like the perfect hangout for this small town. The bartender (Felicia) was awesome with a great sense of humor. If I lived in the area it would be my go to.Great local bar with top notch service!”
