Restaurants in Carlinville

“My first visit. The Quesadilla Grande was excellent. Love the salsa. Although extremely busy due to Christmas Market weekend, the great drinks tied us over fine till the tasty Mexican fare arrived. We’ll definitely be back. Especially because they’re right across the street from one of my favorite Route 66 motels, the CarlinVilla. PS: Kirt & Gayatri say, “Hi”😉”

“I really love Hawthorn!! Their sandwiches are soooo good!! I recommend the jailhouse sandwich! I might also be a little addicted to their coffee free drinks!”

“cozy sports bar atmosphere, delish specials and bar food, good & friendly service!”

“Server had some issues understanding us. but was really patient with my mother who has memory issues and needed a lot of time to read menu. Really a good restaurant.”

“First time here. The waitress was as nice and friendly as can be! Had the buffet and it's not real big but what they have is great. The price was right too.”

“Haven’t eaten here in 50 years. Chili is just as good as I remember. Grandparents would bring me and tell me they dated here in the 1930s before they got married!”

“A classic hometown bar where you’ll instantly feel a sense of ease and comfort. The jukebox has incredible range, the food is tasty and the folks who run it are a damn delight.”

“We love this restaurant. They have such amazing food and such great staff. We’ve never had a bad item from this restaurant. I brought so many friends and family members to this restaurant from out of state. And they can’t wait to go back. 💕”

“Hunt Brothers Pizza is a great pizza for anybody searching for really good tasting food the employees are always very respectful their Pizza is also never undercooked or overcooked it is always just right with a perfect amount of toppings”

“I'm probably one of the last few of the original Taylors still alive. My Dad told me that there were two brothers who owned the business and, somehow, one brother took over and then sold the business. Nevertheless, I love all chili. My Dad used to order a case every now and then and my family always enjoyed it. Years ago, my Dad and I went to the parlor in Carlinville. We saw a guy behind the counter who looked just like us. I wanted to say hi but my Dad wanted to remain anonymous. I'll probably order some Taylor's Mexican chili, partly because its good and partly to remember my Carlinville heritage.”

“I've met some of the best people of my life here!!!!”

“The staff is hardworking! I feel bad for them because they're always understaffed, but you can tell they're doing their best! Love the new remodel too!

Vegetarian options: Salads, cheese pizza. I get a veggie sandwich, then I take it home and put some tofurkey veggie Deli meat on it! Delicious!”

“always friendly staff. Got my order fast and was still hot along with fast will be coming back.”
