“Ever since the new management took over this small cafe it is a gem! Food is delicious, service is always friendly and a great place for a family friendly atmosphere. Before hours were never consistent, manager always conducting her personal business on the phone and ignoring the customers.“

“If you leave here hungry it’s your own fault! The service was friendly and the food was delicious. I had a BLT and sweet potato fries. Really good bread, generous amount of bacon, and the sweet potato fries were great. My husband had the chicken fried chicken with mashed potatoes and green beans. Everything was fresh and the mashed potatoes are from scratch. Will definitely come back next time we’re in Danville!“

“Culver's is one of our go-to on a busy evening. We ordered on the app for Curdside. The app is easy to use. Once we checked into our spot, the food came out quickly and accurately. It was hot, good and also cold and sweet. Soon enough, they may know us by name.“

“The ONLY reason I put yes instead of no was the bartender working Father’s Day. She deserves a raise, with all the chaos I didn’t catch her name. I watched this sweet woman take the weight of that whole restaurant with a smile on her face. We waited so long for service after she brought us drinks to help the server who was supposed to take care of us.. when the server never came for our order we were going to pay for our drinks and leave but she said if we stayed she would take care of us. When we finally got our food we were happy but the bartender really saved this from being a “we left because no one waited on us” review. Also are you hiring because I wondered if that was the issue?“

“My first time to eat here really great“

“Great food, great atmosphere. We went there on a slow week night. Had most of the restaurant to ourselves except for another large party doing the same. There was maybe 10 of us for a work dinner. The pizza was excellent, and the desserts were incredible. One of the gentlemen I was with ordered a slice of carrot cake, I swear he got a 5 lb piece. I will definitely eat there again.“

“First time visit was 5 stars! We arrived on a Friday evening expecting 10-15 guests for my son's 21st birthday celebration. I had not made a reservation or called ahead but the hostess offered a couple of options for us - despite the bar and dining areas already being pretty full. We were seated in the "party room" which was just perfect. Our waiter/bartender, Neal, was amazing! We immediately became friends and his service throughout the night was top notch. Drink and food orders were delivered quickly. The food is delicious. The menu is a step above normal pub fare, but if you're looking for steak or other larger entrees those are not available here. Our group ordered a variety of items and were pleased with the portions and quality. The Bavarian pretzel appetizer was DELICIOUS. Loved the beer cheese.This was our first time visiting Brewlink but I can promise you that we will return - soon. Thank you to their entire staff for making my son's 21st birthday party exactly what he wanted.“

“I just came from The Prewitt Restaurant in Plainfield, IN. I would like to say, I loved the atmosphere of the restaurant, I like that the restrooms were located in an area that nobody needs to search for, and our server, Emily, was phenomenal!! The food was alright, the short rib egg rolls, suggested by our lovely server, were really good, I had steak frites, my mother had a blt, my aunt had chicken skewers, and my son had a grilled chicken sandwich. Everything was pretty good, although we collectively decided that we could've ordered several appetizers and been a little better off. Emily took my rating from a 6 to an 8.5. Thank you Emily.“
