Reids' Harvest House Reviews
Been going here since the mid 90s and still travel an hour every few months for the food. A great place!!
Food was really good but...the bread/buns have changed. Used to be yeasty and light. Now heavy and not so good
4 of us had dinner there tonight. The food and selection as well as the waitress was absolutely great. And the cost was very reasonable. We will return.

Reids' Harvest House is a family-friendly restaurant with a cozy hometown atmosphere. The staff is friendly and the food is delicious, especially the fried mushrooms and fried chicken. The buffet features hot and fresh food until closing time, including southern Illinois favorites like chicken and dumplings, liver and onions, and fried chicken. There are plenty of salads, toppings, and side dishes, along with desserts such as jello, pudding, and soft serve that work well on the buffet line. The restaurant has been a local favorite in Chester for decades, offering simple, homemade food and plenty of it. The decor has a nostalgic feel, as it looks like it hasn’t been updated since the 90's, which many find charming. Parking is convenient with a large paved lot, and wheelchair accessibility is easy from the parking lot. Vegetarian options are available at the salad bar, and the setting is casual and kid-friendly, making it a great spot for families and groups.
