    Basic burger with tasty potato salad as the side.
    Rolando O.

    Fun space with lots of historical photos to get you in the "Lincoln Vibe." Is was in the mood for a burger and this place came through. Solid burger with fresh tasting bun. We also enjoyed the potato salad. Wife had the BLT and the bacon was thick and Texas toast was perfect.

    Pizza.

    Great service and great salad and pizza. Price was a bit expensive for the location in remote Springfield

    Bbq pizza was fantastic! We got extra sauce to drizzle over it and it was so good! The 16inch pizza was enough to fill both of us up plus have leftovers. Beers were cold. Wait staff was friendly.

    Fried Portabella Mushrooms are awesome!!

    We were traveling through town with truck and 30 foot trailer. Called the restaurant and hostess told us a place to park across the street. Our waitress was Zabrina who does a great job. Food is really good, atmosphere is nice and clean. If you can stop by to eat, highly recommend it!!

    Fried chicken dinner with green beans and Potato Salad
    A J.

    Stopped at this place on the recommendation of the hotel staff. Great decision. My wife ordered the "pony"size horseshoe sandwich with buffalo chicken. It is an open face sandwich with buffalo chicken covered with fries and smothered with cheddar cheese sauce. Heart attack on a plate. I ordered a fried half-a-chicken with potato salad and home style green beans, on the menu as fried chicken dinner. When our food came, my wife remarked that she was glad she only ordered the "pony" size and not the full sized. The sandwich was massive. She wasn't able to finish it. It was very flavorful and much more than she could eat. As for my meal, the attached was taken the first time I came up for air. There is no after picture because it wasn't pretty. Very tender and well seasoned pieces of chicken. The green beans and potato salad were also very good. It made me think I was at home in Louisiana but was reminded I wasn't when I noticed the outside temp of 40 degrees. The person(s) that helped with our orders were very friendly with an overall positive attitude about everything. Very easy to be comfortable in those place and enjoy some great food. We must've timed it just right as there was no wait to be seated when we arrived, and the line was out the door and down the hall when we left. There is no doubt why this was, as it was.

    Good food. Got the chicken pony shoe. Only complaint was the restroom stalls were hard to get in and out of.

    After stopping by the Abraham Lincoln House and library, we came across this microbrewery and had…read moreto go in! They also have a cidery, but it wasn't open during this season. Thankfully we still were able to get one cider, and they had a selection of other beers. The cider was tart and refreshing, and I really like the berry mocktail, which had ginger beer, and a mix of berries in it. As for food, the Nashville hot chicken sandwich came with a lot of heat which was great. I got the dry rub version, which is spicer than the saucy version. The horseshoe sandwich is a local favorite, which is an open faced sandwich with sliced bread topped with meat (we got the angus beef), fries, and cheese sauce. It was quite heavy and creamy because of all the sauce. Overall we enjoyed our meal and our server was very friendly, although service was on the slower side.

    We came here on a Sunday before a matinee at the Hoogland -- full of hope, hungry, and maybe a…read morelittle too optimistic. The building is beautiful, the location is perfect, and we thought, "Hey, maybe those bad reviews were just people having a bad day." Spoiler alert: they were not. Service started strong. We were seated right away, and they even brought coloring pages for our kids -- a nice touch that gave us false hope. Then the food arrived, and it was like watching a plot twist in a bad movie. I ordered the Buffalo Chicken Pony Shoe. It came out looking like someone microwaved a bag of frozen chicken tenders and tossed them in buffalo sauce for moral support. The cheese sauce might have been homemade -- it was grainy enough to make me believe someone whisked it themselves -- but there was barely any. Also, who hides the cheese under the fries? That's the star of the show! I had to beg for more, and even then it arrived lukewarm, much like my excitement for the meal. My wife ordered the Pork Schnitzel with "spaetzle." Except it wasn't schnitzel; it was a pork cutlet that had clearly seen the inside of a freezer longer than most people's leftovers. And the "spaetzle"? Nope. Straight-up spaghetti noodles. The mushroom sauce tasted like it came straight from a can labeled Cream of Disappointment. Two of the kids got cheese pizza -- or as I like to call it, "Frozen Circle of Regret." My son's "chips" were somehow both soggy and chewy, a texture I didn't even know existed. Frying them until they're crunchy shouldn't be rocket science, but here we are. Everything was bland, flavorless, and missing any sign of seasoning. The best dish of the entire meal? My daughter's burger on her Pony Shoe -- mostly because it resembled real food. And just to add a little flair, nearly every plate was dusted with dried parsley. Because, of course, nothing says fine dining like sprinkling dried parsley on frozen food. This place has serious potential -- it's got the space, the charm, and the perfect downtown vibe. But if your secret ingredient is "frozen," no amount of parsley is going to save you.
