Came here for our annual Christmas party. Food was good, just not fond of instant mashed potatoes, they were ok. The beef is very good and so is the chicken. Really like how they decorated, a very nice touch. The bartender was the only one working and she was very busy. We would go for dinner there again.

Took the Family out for dinner, Me and my youngest had the Fried Chicken special boy was that hot and juicy, My oldest got himself a tenderloin sandwich he thought it was delicious, and the Wife got herself a slice of Lasagna, She loved it,. Plenty of meat and cheese, the sauce was sweet and spiced. Will definitely be going back again. For all the meals you definitely get what you pay for

The Chicken was juicy but had no flavor and the special dipping sauce was far from special and flavor. Tator tots were good. Staff was friendly.Too expensive for what you get and where it’s located.

Fried chicken was great, not a fan of fresh french fries they needed to be cooked longer.

We hadn't been there in a couple of years. But our nephew recently bought it. So we drove out for dinner. It's such a nice place. They have a nice little salad bar. Everything was very fresh. We tried the chicken bites and corn nuggets for appetizers. Both were really good. My husband ordered the cod. It was a huge piece. I ended up getting grilled chicken. Again, it was a very large piece. Very tasty. We'll be back, especially since family owns it now! ?

Kid-friendliness: Very much a family place.

The Happy Spot has great food and farm decor. The tables have plenty of room to get around. Our waitress was friendly and efficient. We went on a week night and could get right in. We ordered cocktails and browsed the menu. They have a nice salad bar and our food came in a timely manner. The chicken and fish were delicious. It takes us about an hour to get there but it’s worth the trip.

We were a party of 3. There were not many customers, many open tables. All 3 of us ordered chicken. After an extensive wait, our chicken was served…. Burnt… all three orders. Both kitchen and wait staff were good with sliding these unpresentable meals on our table in each of our directions. Such a disappointment, and not cheap!

Their salad bar is awesome! The chicken was too. I had the strips and my family had the chicken. Everything was hot and good!
