"If your looking for a simple yet delicious BLT then this is your spot! Burgers and Chili Cheese dog are good too. Nearby picnic tables [uncovered], and parking. Having Reams Market next door was a bonus. Friendly staff!"

"First time here, and yet felt like a taste from my childhood!! Will definitely be back more often next season, especially for that soft serve!"

"This is a great spot if you want some positive nostalgia. Get the double cheeseburger with everything (I mean everything) they have to offer. I have no idea where they source their beef from but the burger was perfect. And the fries were divine. And for you Pepsi lovers out there that’s their pop of choice. And don’t leave without one of their dairy creations. If you’re on a road trip stop by this place and skip the chain fast food places. It’s pricier than McDonald’s, but the quality makes up for it."

"This is a cute little spot in the middle of downtown Elburn! The staff is always super friendly and the owner is a good family friend. I love the fruity pebbles flurry! There’s so many other ingredients you can choose from and there is a great food selection as well!"
