“I was there after what I assume is the busy time, so I had the dining room to myself. There was a steady stream of folks in the drive thru though. The "Deluxe Single Basket" was more than enough to fill me up. I had to buy a take-home pint, too full for dessert. The staff were friendly and at least one was always cleaning something.“

“Had early dinner at the Big Grove and was completely blown away. Food was excellent with a variety of menu items that had me wishing my stomach was a bit bigger. I sat at the bar as I was dining alone and the bartender did a great job of explaining the various items I inquired about as well as suggesting a perfect craft beer pairing. I only get to Champaign a couple of times a year, but this will be my go-to anytime in the area.“

“My review is a reflection mainly of the food here. The service is absolutely lovely, and I have been treated with nothing but kindness by the staff at La Peep. I have brought even family members from out of town here. This was my go-to breakfast spot with my partner before we explored other options in town.
While the service is very good, I cannot unfortunately say the same about the food (especially after trying other restaurants within the same price points).
While I've tried to stick to the same thing eating here (their yogurt fruit parfait), their pancakes here have nearly a burnt taste to them which makes them less than savory. Both my father and I were not a fan of their pancakes. A lot of their menu items have just been a huge miss unfortunately, and while we still might return, it's just not the best place in town.“
