“Our first time in and it was great!! I was in a breakfast mood so I got the lumberjack breakfast : cinnamon roll French toast, 2 eggs over medium, hash browns, sausage and bacon! we also tried the biscuits and gravy which were great and the biscuits were really fluffy! He got the bacon cheeseburger with fries and we also had a chicken quesadilla for an appetizer! Generous portions, food came out promptly and everyone was really nice! We can't wait to go back!“

“Not only is their food amazing and fast. The staff is amazing. We went today (me my husband and youngest son) after my son had a procedure to get tubes in. They where super genuine about how he was doing. The gentleman who works there (I didn’t catch his name) was such a sweetheart. He came up to talk to us and ask about my son. He also gave him a stuffie. Which made my son smile for the first time after his procedure. THANK YOU FOR THAT! The little gesture was greatly appreciated!“

“It’s been years since I’ve been here and it’s still a cute place to dine for lunch. I love the atmosphere! Monica gives great service and has wonderful lunch options.“

“Have you been looking for a great burger and fries? Look no further. Best I’ve ever had!“

“Was very disappointed this time we waited a half an hour to get waited on then it took over an hour for a hamburger and fries and two orders of bacon wrapped poppers and another sandwich. I ordered my second drink and an hour later I finally got it. The couple that we were with come here all the time and they were very upset said they would never come back on a weekend. We have been here before and the food was great in the service was great this time not so much. Also our food all came out cold didn't say anything to the waitress because we are afraid to be another hour before we got our lunch.“

“Had an outstanding lunch at Carrigan’s Pub today! Pork tenderloin was a generous portion, seasoned and cooked perfectly! Fries were crisp with just the right amount of salt. Very reasonably priced… Highly recommend!“

“Great food, delivered by great people. Always an enjoyable experience.“

“Best place in EP with the friendliest staff“

“no, no, no. N. O. NO no, no, please God no just look at all of the fake reviews that are all talking about whatever forex is! obviously don't eat here, if they have to pay for tons of fake reviews to flood their reviews page then they are probably trying to hide the real reviews... and I would have to say a hard no to whatever forex is that the fake reviews are plugging... the owner was a sloppy drunk at the barge and she treated her employees horribly, very unprofessional, it's been a long time since I went there but it use to flood and she would stay open, no power but the gas still worked so even with inches of water throughout the place she kept on cracking that whip at her staff to keep the burgers coming“

“I would recommend eating here to anyone. Me and my family went in tonight. Red excellent service. The food was great and I will definitely be back. Our waitress name was Mary. She was very informative and generally seems like she enjoys her job. She even went out of her way to comfort my baby who was really fussy we will definitely be asking for her when we come turn on!“

“friendly bar and fun people“

“some of the nicest ppl go here“

“Shout out to Mike for helping us find my daughters AirPods. We called to report them being left behind or possibly falling out in the parking lot. When we arrived back at the restaurant this man was walking around the parking lot with a flashlight looking under cars & advised he checked with staff & at our table. Thankfully the AirPods were found (in my purse 🤦🏼‍♀️) but this man went above & beyond to ensure they were appropriately searched for when he could have just said “we’ll let you know if they come up” and left it at that. We are so grateful for this service! Also our food was great & our waitress was awesome!“

“Best boneless wings in Central Illinois!!“

“We were at this location on Thanksgiving eventhough the location was very busy. The staff was kind and very patient.“

“So much better than Steak 'n Shake well now that Steak 'n Shake has no staff. Till Steak 'n Shake brings back a wait staff this is pretty much the same food but hot , fresh and cheaper, will just go to Freddy's!“
