“I have been to this location a few times now, and the food is always out quick, hot, and fresh! The new building is nice and is a great addition to the area. My one and only complaint is that every time I do a mobile order they don’t give me any napkins. However, seeing as this is seeming to become the new industry standard it’s hard to fault them too hard for that.“

“I scheduled an event here sight not seen on August 31st for a 65th Birthday Celebration. This place is a hidden gem. Absolutely gorgeous. The room is spacious yet can be very intimate. Thank you so much to Ms. Evelyn Randle and Ms. Arika for taking care of me. The CVS Class of 1977 raved about this place all while we were there. We are scheduling our next event. Look out for Ms. Evelyn. Thank you guys once again. P.S, I would give it 6 stars but you are only allowed 5.“

“Came here during a rush and they were working to try and get everyone seated and out. Took a while to get the food which was understandable given that I was seated along with five other groups at the same time. The people here made sure everyone got what they wanted and checked in to make sure everything was going alright. I got the value slam and was pretty full off of just that.“

“I just happened to crash out in Lansing Illinois for the night. This place was right down the road from my room. Had an old school look and a comfortable feeling. The bartender that waited on me was an absolute doll. She took great care of me. I got the twisted turkey sandwich and the rueben quesadilla. I really wasn't expecting much, but let me tell you they were both fantastic. They obviously only use grade A ingredients and it shows. If you're ever in Lansing illinois, JJ KELLEYS is a must stop.“

“I give it 10 stars great food and they very friendly“

“It's always a pleasure to go to Old Town the white people treat you so good down there the food is great the drinks is a reasonable price it won't hurt your pocket so I try my best stay away from black owned club because black owned club black owned places are too high and too expensive they hurt black people pocket so old town is the place to go I'm keeping all this 100 💯“

“Visiting the area and family wanted us to try their brews as one of their favorites. Tried a flight of 10 beers and favs were Tangerine Trackstar, Toxic Words, Lucifer in a haze, Immoveable King, Nuban overlord and the top one Here comes the reaper. We also had the Pretzel and queso for snacks. They were very good and fast. They also had ice tea which is not always available at breweries. I will say the art work gave me pause and some of the names being a Christian but I don't know the background to comment.“

“I went early not to pack nice place had the strawberry mamosa the fried chicken sandwich breakfast sandwich that come with bacon and fries egg on it choice of Toto’s fries and something else. The chicken was tender but they need to change their oil soon“

“Came in to the dining room to eat in around 8 or 8:30 p.m. Was not greeted by young woman at counter when I came in. Stood there several minutes waiting on husband and reading menu. Several people in the kitchen being loud and throwing things at each other. When he came in and we went to the counter she greeted us. Took our order. Pleasant enough. Another girl was wiping trays. We grabbed drinks. Area needed to be wiped down but the napkins, straws, lids, and ketchup area were all stocked. Went to dining room and had to go to 5 tables to find a clean one. Food came out quickly. They have changed their burgers. They are thin as paper. Like meat crepes. Seriously. Bacon was cooked the way I like it. Husband and I ordered the same sandwich, only he got a double. Apparently that changes the type of bun you get because mine was a regular hamburger bun wrapped in paper and his was a fluffy sandwich bun in a paper bowl. Receipt reflected we paid for two of the same sandwiches. So who knows the thought process there. Finished and dumped our tray. Didn't bother getting ice cream.“

“This Culvers has the best employees! They are always greeting us with a smile! My daughter cannot eat Gluten or Dairy and they always accommodate us with a Gluten Free Bun. Never a mistake! Best food and Custard!“

“Well, if they cook your food properly, it's not bad... however, if they don't and you need to send it back to cook it (not a fan of raw burgers 🤷‍♀️) and it comes back the same way... be prepared to not eat and pay for the meal anyway. I asked for it to be removed from our bill (over $100 total so not just a couple things) and they removed it after a small "fight" but literally charged us for a basket of fries cuz I ate a few fries off my plate, I guess. they don't take care of their mistakes nor do they care to make things right. Lost future business, everyone at the table was shocked.“

“Chris was a fantastic server.. He was absolutely phenomenal on the ball and had a great spirit about him .. the food is amazing.. Thanks Chris for making us feel like family.“

“the food is amazing and the staff are super kind!“

“Best beef around! Prices is great the fries are amazing they are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Hana helped me out because I’ve never been there before and said the Italian beef was good and she did not miss! Great staff and great food 10/10 will come again!“

“Great food and environment“

“I went here because a coworker of mine told me about their mushroom swiss burger. The staff were friendly and my order came quickly. Granted, it was the slower part of the day but still great service. I can appreciate that.

After trying the burger, I noticed that I didn't get that bloated or weighed-down feeling. The burger was good, the fries were good and I liked the shake. It took a spoon to really get into it, but that's to be expected when having a thick shake. All around great experience in my book.“

“One of my favorite places to have a perfectly prepared dinner. The food never disappoints. Portions are large, so taking home enough for tomorrow's lunch is always possible. The service is really great. Most of the servers have been there for a long time so they know the menu well and are attentive without being obsessive. My favorite on the menu is the Tournedos of Beef. The sauce over them is wonderful.“

“I love this Culvers, every timeI I have encountered this establishment all of the staff is so friendly and always smiling.I have never seen anything like this.They are so polite and respectful.The food is amazing and the best place we have in Crete. ,“

“We had a great time great place great atmosphere“

“My family has been there a few times and the food is delicious. Always fresh. Just love the food“

“Thanks girls. I had a great time!“

“Their beer cheese soup is amazing! I had it at Gordon Ramseys place downtown and the soup here is better! It’s worth a trip just for that and the bread and better alone!“

“Good food. Good prices too.“

“Man!!!!! Bocce really came through. Went to Bocce last minute because another restaurant want able to come thru on game night bc their tvs didnt work. Went down the street to Bocce Bar and Grill and they were able to set our large group of 18 people. Great serve amd the food was amazing. Thanks to the entire staff for making it happen on short notice.“

“Excellent and well priced food . Burgers are delicious“

“The cheese on the burger wasn't melted at all. The fries were medium warm, and the employees' uniforms were all over the place, dirty and sagging and let's not get on these ladies' hairstyles. Multi colored hair. Long weaves. All with zero hair nets.“

“Absolutely fantastic food and great service! We will definitely be coming back! Their ribs are the best! Between the rest of my family I also sampled their pulled pork, brisket, Mac and cheese, coleslaw, and fries. It was all great. Can’t wait to try everything else on their menu.“

“The service was good and so was the food.“
