“Monday’s (11 17 25) HEROES were our key hosts this weekend for our Silent Auction prize getaway. April Dawn Horstmann and I, upon arrival, were greeted immediately by two angels - Mallory and Bella, along with Jim, the Proprietor / Developer. They were incredibly hospitable, helpful, kind and always smiling. The hospitality industry is challenging and they make it look easy, and fun. We highly recommend this new fave. We will return because of Mallory and Bella!”

“I just discovered Heather’s lemon blueberry pound cake at Riverside Mercantile in Elizabethtown! It is just delicious! Light and lemony…just right for me! I’ll be stopping by in Carterville!”

“My sister and I had a lovely dinner here last week. The food was fantastic, the staff was attentive and the atmosphere was great. We had Samosa, bread, yogurt, mango chicken and Saag chicken. We shared the dishes and still had leftovers!! We will be back😊”

“We had the chicken spice pizza & the BEST hot Italian beef sandwich! Will for sure be coming back!”

“I don't miss much about my time in SoIL but gosh I miss this brunch spot. Well worth the wait for a table, just hang out at the thrift store next door. Dutch babies are to die for. The bloody Mary's here have converted so many people, they smoke their own paprika which gives it an awesome flavor. I took so many out of town visitors here because it is actually a unique and quality place, which is quite lacking in the area generally.”

“We had a great meal here—the food was definitely the highlight. Everything we ordered was flavorful and well-prepared. That said, we did have to wait a bit to be seated, and the restaurant was really busy, so the service felt a bit slow and scattered at times. It’s understandable given how packed they were, but it did impact the overall experience slightly. Still, if you're not in a rush and want a tasty meal, it's worth a visit.”

“I want to give a huge shoutout to Kyle, manager at Quatro’s for his excellent customer service! He went above and beyond rectifying a couple of mishaps that I experienced with Q’s. My family have been ordering their pizza for years and I didn’t really want to start going somewhere else due to some problems with ordering etc, but kyle immediately called me (without me asking him to) and offered up a solution. Kudos to him especially when a lot of other restaurants would have just shrugged it off. Than u!!!”

“We pre ordered many items for breakfast/brunch for our children’s wedding last week. Everything was ready exactly when they said it would be. Presentation was amazing and all the wedding party loved everything. Thank you Bunmakers for being a positive addition to our children’s wedding day!”

“I stopped here on my through town. Kind people and good baristas! Flavor in my coffee is not my thing but they definitely have an extensive list if you like your coffee like that!”

“Fantastic food!! Very nice people!!”

“Stopped here while staying overnight in Carbondale. Loved the setting & friendly staff. Did a wine tasting & decided we loved Don’s Estate Dry White Vignoles. Took a bottle with us & enjoyed later on the patio at the Home2 Suites in Springfield. Wish you weren’t so far from our home in Des Moines Iowa.”

“We brought our 3 grandsons here & all had some yummy treats!! The frozen yogurt was SO GOOD & the boys enjoyed all the toppings! The staff was very welcoming, attentive & friendly!”

“These guys make a good pie. You're wasting your time at the other places.”

“This was my one of my happy places in Carbondale as a student in SIU. “Sweet Crepe with Banana & extra Nutella!” - Absolute Delight!!
Will always stay as a core memory for me. Discovered it very late even though I stayed very nearby to this place.
Moved to Seattle, tried every crepe place here & nothing matched what I used to find here. Miss this place a lot!! :)”
