Can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. B&G’s are top notch!

A clean, quiet place with some great breakfast options. I really enjoyed the Southern Benedict, and the pancakes were fluffy without being spongy.

My wife and I have been going to all 3 local locations of Childers Eatery in the Peoria area for many years. The food is just as good today as it was when we first step foot in the Knoxville restaurant some 20+ years ago.The place is always clean and the food is comes out Perry quick. Great place to eat.

Fair price,but food was cold.

Sad I have to give a one star review because the food was actually pretty good. But the service was so bad that my husband and I had to give it a 1 star. We come to the junction city location quite often but the last 2 times in the last month the service has been absolutely horrendous!!! Coffee never filled, she never checked on us, never smiled, had to ask boxes our check, etc etc... You would think they would hire someone with experience especially for the prices they charge. Very disappointed and won't be back unless they get some better people in here to take of the guests!!

I go here and dine alone about every other weekend. I have never once had bad service. I usually go on Saturdays but switched things up a little and went today, on a Sunday. The parking lot was jam packed! It took me a half sec to realize it was the church rush. I expected to be there a little longer today, which I would’ve been ok with. The restaurant about to full capacity but I was happy to see they had a few of the single booths open on the back wall, so no wait at all to sit down. The kid that works as a host up front is very welcoming and hardworking. I’ve never had to wait longer than 60-90 secs to be seated. Both servers that work the weekends are great too. I really didn’t expect to be in and out as quickly as I was today but those girls are on it every time. I get the same thing whenever I go and it’s always delicious. The butternut squash and andouille sausage frittata is phenomenal! And the lemon vinaigrette on the greens is one of best dressings I’ve ever had in my life. I always eat every last bit and leave feeling very satisfied.

I was very surprised by Childers. The selection and creativity of the menu was really refreshing and exciting. I need to go back to try more! The quality was great and service was impeccable. What more could you ask for?

Great place to try new twists on old classics. Had some gluten-free options, and the kids really enjoyed it.
