“Been awhile since I've been there but went back with my old school friends and we had some great service and awesome food the special was tenderloin and fries and it was delicious”
“Great menu selection with budget friendly prices and a small town feel. Service is always prompt, coffee is always hot, and you'll often get a wave from behind the girill. Clean and cozy environment.”
“We’re from the Champaign area so we were driving through and NEEDED coffee on our road trip lol. Both coffees, amazing. Macarons, delicious. First time coming in and I told my fiancé we have to be back asap. Love the vibes. Friendly service. Service was a little slow but they were so so busy. We’ll be back!”
“First time going here and it didn’t disappoint! Got there and it was a busy night all the seats were full, but a few people were leaving so the wait was less than 5 minutes to get a seat. Staff was friendly and did a great job not losing us during a busy Saturday night. The food was delicious, seasoned well and delivered in a timely manner. Tried a signature cocktail off the menu and it delicious as well. Price was very reasonable for experience and amount of food you get. Will definitely make the drive to go back!”
“This place is so bright and happy! I love the decorations and the color. We got such a friendly welcome when we came in too! This place is extraordinarily clean, and all the flavors we tried were great! They have a good variety for so few flavors, and the cookie sandwiches, toppings, and dipped cones all add to that variety.”
“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.”
“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”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Love this bar... Good prices on drinks and bartenders are super cool... The blonde headed one is super cool... I don't remember her name and honestly she probably doesn't remember mine... But she had a great attitude and gives great service. She hooked up with some Carmel Apple jello shots around Halloween... They were awesome! Would totally recommend this bar... You just need to like or appreciate country music... It plays in this bar”
“Nice local bar located in uptown El Paso. Had a larger party we were with along with a large gathering they had there already. With limited staff they were still very accommodating as quick as they could be. Small town, good people type place to go hang out for a few.”
“Been there several times, food is great, service is prompt and friendly, prices are fair and during warm months the patio is great for eating, relaxing and conversation.”
“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 ”
“Dat bar is an old school drive bar. There isnt a big menu for food, there arent 30 beers on tap. It's easy to find a table, and if you're hungry, you can get a classic bar pizza. As long as you approach this bar for what it actually is, you can have a great time here. They have darts, pool, and checkers. Peanuts in the shell are free, just toss the shells on the ground. Folks are reserved, but friendly. Dont expect the newest spiced illinois spiced new England spiced ipa. They dont have it. But if you actually want to hear your friends, this is the place. It's wonderful, but it's not a hip biergarten, it's a small town bar, and be prepared for that. So long as you accept that, and the cheap beer that comes with it, you can have a fun time. Shoot some pool, drink some Busch, and have a pizza. It's worth it.”
“We had the lunch quesadilla and fajitas and they were both really good! My quesadilla came with the sour cream and guacamole in a little cup made out of a tortilla chip. It was so cute! And I'm pretty sure we paid less here than we did for our McDonald's yesterday.”
“I've never been to a checkers before. It was a great experience. It took a little longer than it should have but they were very apologetic about it. They were very nice to ”
“We officially made it into Common Grounds in Gridley today for lunch. I should have taken a picture of all of our food! We have had some of their baked goods at Crafted before and a couple other events but this was our first time at this lovely little coffee/ lunch shop! Everything we had was SOOO good. I am thankful we don't live closer as this would be a problem! Highly recommend making the 25 minute drive. It is worth every penny and it was a beautiful day for a drive in the country!We all sampled each other's food but all were excellent! We had:-Chili and the fluffiest cornbread with honey butter.-Pulled pork with homemade Mac and cheese-bisquits and gravy-BBQ chicken /ranch pizza on super thin crust-white choc mocha-peach tea-mango smoothiePlus toll house pie and blackberry lemonade pie! The lemon was perky just how my husband loves it!The owner Katrina is so sweet and we told her over and over again how amazing everything was! We wish we had something this amazing in Bloomington but the drive out to Gridley is totally worth it!Damon kept saying over and over how impressed he was with common ground, he wants to go weekly!”
