“Crossroads Cafe was the perfect meeting place to reconnect with a dear friend over coffee and fresh baked cherry cinnamon rolls! ☕️ This place offers such an inviting and comfortable atmosphere. The owners are so neat! I really appreciated their attentive service so I went back the next day to try their lunch menu. I highly recommend their Italian sandwich! ?My favorite thing about this place is their drive-thru service, so you can enjoy it on the go if you are just passing through!! ?”
“Overall, all the staff here have always been welcoming and fun to talk to. The food there is fantastic, especially if Olivia or Christine are the ones cooking. Even the regulars there are super friendly. Highly recommend!”
“Had the liver and onions, best I've ever had. Wife had salmon, came out pretty good size, not small. Said it was very tasty. Nick was our server, said he had been there about 8 days, very attentive, bill was very reasonable. 5 stars plus, plus...”
“Always nice people oat this location. My first stop when heading to Michigan to visit family.Parking: Not going to be a problem hereKid-friendliness: Playhouse and what kid does not like McDonald's?Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of room to get around.”
“The food is made with fresh ingredients (you can watch the cook prepare it). The service is very prompt, and the staff are courteous, and attentive. Oh and yes, the food is delicious!Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options are limited. Just adding a vege burger, or black bean burger as an alternative would really improve Vegetarian options.”
“This is pretty authentic Mexican American food. They are very friendly and reasonably priced. Very delicious food. And the portions are big. The street corn is absolutely terrific. Their desserts are light and creamy.Parking: It is not a huge lot and shared by multiple businesses.Wheelchair accessibility: A couple wheelchair only parking right in front.”
“Awesome cafe! Good coffee and hot chocolate and pastries, but the best part is the service, the workers are kind and one even gave us a free affogato to try! There's Christian decor and Bibles upstairs too! Definitely somewhere we'll return to whenever we're in town”
“Sometimes you run across a restaurant that just makes you smile. If you are just passing through on Interstate 55 and need a high quality break from driving, look no further! Lola's Homestyle Filipino Cooking is genuinely one of those special places. Lola's is clean, bright, welcoming, authentic and well managed by the owner.The kitchen was immaculate and busy (see pictures). If you have $15 to $20 for dinner, Skip the fast food and get some classy made from scratch food here at Lola's for the same money ( thank me later!!!). Offerings include rotating authentic Filipino dishes, as well as Ginger Garlic Short Ribs, Crispy Chicken Tacos, Pork BBQ Skewers, Ahi Tuna Poki, Crispy Pork Belly (a specialty here!), Korean Burnt Ends Tacos, Chicken Adobo Wings, World Class Ramen, Pancit Noodles, Beer & Bagoong Chicken Skewers, Popcorn Chicken (choice of ten different sauces), Fried Rice, Bangus (fried fish), Crispy Pork Egg rolls (top notch!), Stir Fried Veggies, Loaded Longanisa Fries ( cheesy sauce and green onions). Desserts include "Halo Halo", Sweet Potato Fries (powdered sugar & marshmallow fluff) and authentic made from scratch Ice Cream ( Mango, Uber, Buko Padan or Black Sesame). Many drink offerings including various flavors of Boba, lemonades, and sodas. I hope the folks in Pontiac appreciate such a special restaurant and having it well staffed and managed by on-site, working ownership. The attention to detail, care put into service and the immaculate cleanliness is a rare find in today's restaurant industry at any price level. I hope Lola's Homestyle Filipino Cooking gets the support from the citizens of Pontiac for many years to come. Do yourself a favor and patronize these folks. Well done to the ownership and staff at Lola's. MEGA-KUDOS!!!”
“Good food! Love the grilled pork chops! Reasonable prices. The service is friendly and makes you feel at home. Very cozy atmosphere. They have an old bar that dates back to the 1920s. A step back in time.”
“This is such a childhood restaurant for me. Great ice cream for the summer. Best coleslaw ever. Pulled pork sandwiches and spicy chicken sandwiches are some faves. Family friendly.Parking: Right by the restaurant. Not a whole lot of space, but somehow holds infinite cars.Kid-friendliness: Amazing. Servers are nice, decorations everywhere, amazing vibe, radio is going, high chairs available. If you bring sharpies you can sign your name on the back wall.”
“Each time I dine at LS, I’m incredibly impressed that we have this gem nearby. The quality is what you would expect in the city…just top notch. My friends and I enjoy getting different dishes so we can try everything. The cocktails are incredible too. Highly recommend for date night, special occasion or to hang in the bar with friends. Don’t miss out on the amazing desserts too!”
“It’s always a pleasant experience when I stop by Pontiac Nutrition 61764. Kelly Thompson is very knowledgeable regarding the products she has to offer and is also very accommodating. I try to stop in a couple times a week.”
“In need of sustenance we popped into Pfaff's Bakery whilst driving through Pontiac. We were immediately greeted by a friendly face behind the counter who welcomed us, told us the story behind the bakery and allowed us time to peruse the wonderful array of cakes behind the counter. Armed with four Pontiac Danish pastries, two filled with apricot and two with blueberry jam, plus two cups of self poured coffee from a flask on the counter we sat down at one of the tables and started chatting to the gentleman at the next table. He was a local and equally as friendly, enquiring as to our journey thus far and where we are heading next. The pastries were beyond good and while we were there a steady stream of locals came in to buy pastries and cakes for parties and birthdays. We could not resist leaving with some cookies, a couple of turnovers (recommended by the young man behind the counter) and a chocolate cake in the shape of a large walnut whip.”
“Only reason I gave it four stars for atmosphere is because it's a pizza place. You're not going to wear a tuxedo to go there but it's very clean and neat.Fantastic Pizza! Really friendly, kind, and considerate staff. Probably one of my favorite places for Central Illinois and has a former Chicago boy, that speaks a lot! I highly recommend.”
“Stopped here for dinner while passing through the area. Typical bar atmosphere with very nice employees. We were seated right away. After you choose your order you will need to go to the bar and order be pay for it. It will be brought to your table once done. There is no table service though. The burgers we got were super delicious and juicy. Can substitute the side for whichever one you want from the appetizer menu in whole or half. Cooks were super fast and I have to say I was amazed at how clean the kitchen and exhaust hood were. Amazing place!”
“Best pizza in Central Illinois. Always polite and greet you with a smile. And a good value. Their meat rolls are the best! And can't forget their famous Italian Beef Sandwich!! Treat yourself and eat at Joes!!!! Absolutely the best of the Best!!”
“I have been to this place twice this weekend party of 21 great service food is top notch would recommend it to everyone!!Tvs to watch sports. Nice local place the owner is always there always accommodating!!Will be backLove love pub cheese even my 6 year old loves it!!”
“My favorite cafe to go to, by far. I first met the owners when they had their little coffee trailer on Main Street a couple years ago, and it makes me happy to see how far they’ve come with their efforts. The drinks are amazing and original. It’s right in the middle of downtown Lexington, and not far from anything in this town.Parking: There are plenty of spots on the street, spaces along Cedar st, and there’s two parking lots not far from the shop”
“Great food and staff! Well worth a stop! The owners were real characters and if you're a route 66 traveler, this is a must stop it's right down the street from old classic 60s route 66 motel”
“4 adults and 3 children recently had lunch here. Thx for having buckets of stuff for the kids! Super waitress… she strived to serve. Food was fine, wow, cook making everything… for everyone on such a small flattop! Recommend new owners spend some $$$$ on “atmosphere”. Get some LED lighting, brighten the place up, strip out SOME of the old, redo wall “art”, clean up seating area so the families in the area feel welcome to enjoy the food and staff.”
“Love the burnt ends! The blackened fish is good, also! The service is friendly and makes you feel at home.It's located in an old building that's been extensively remodeled. It seems a bit cavernous for my liking, but very clean.”
“Awesome place! I tend to try wings every place I go and figured I'd try these wings out. On the menu they are under the appetizer section and are "smoked wings". I ordered those and cheese fries. These wings were some of the best I have had and were a lot different than any wing I've ever had, also cheese fries were very good. Everyone at my table was pleased with the food but the wait time for food was LONG. Other than that, this is a great place and atmosphere!”
“We come in from out of town and this has been a place that we have repeatedly visited. All- you- can- eat was great!! Our server was the greatest!!The freebie chips and salsa were a nice touch, too.”
“Highly recommend the beer mac and cheese special ?We are back for more great foodCreamy chicken and rice soup was delicious,,,patty melt w/fries and Philly cheesesteak did not ”
“The day Sunday bartender are great. The night bartender sucks. I think the day bartender name is Lori and Ronda. The night bartender is Stromi. The night bartender was more on her phone then worried about our drinks.”
“Born in Illinois, live in Tennessee. Can't get a tenderloin in Tennessee. I miss them. Here to visit family and ate here tonight. Tenderloin was the very best I have had in very long time. Definitely a 10 without a doubt. Highly, highly recommend this restaurant and the tenderloins. On sweet bread, that was awesome. French fries ”
“Pizza was really good. It was cooked to perfection, crunchy & cheesy. My daughter had the Ruben sandwich and stated was the best she’s had. Her boyfriend had the cheeseburger on a pretzel bun with beer cheese and he said it was really good. Nice place. Mostly locals. Everyone seem to be having a good time. Highly recommend!”
“The best brewery around! This is a great place to bring the whole family, with Joe's Station House Pizza on site as well as a self serve beer wall, there's plenty to keep the adults occupied. But what about the kids, you may ask? With numerous TVs, vintage video games and arcade games, board games and table games, the kids will find themselves in paradise. When its warm you can find yourself outside in the beer garden playing bags or sand volleyball. OBs regularly features very talented musicians for some free entertainment. On top of all that, the event space available to rent really rounds out the place.”
