My wife didn't wanna have pizza she wanted a Reuben I wasn't with her but when she came home and had half a sandwich, I thought I hate Rubens, but then I smelled hers and had to try it. I didn't know that I liked Ruben's but if it's done with quality ingredients Harvey Hinkle Myers did a wonderful job and now I have Ruben's much more often. I just make them with good ingredients and I'll stop whenever I drive by Harvey Hinkle Myers, I'll get one from them or a pizza.

We went when it was on the warmer side out.

My wife and I were passing by the area and felt we had to try it. It reminded me of the old time drive in places. You pull into a spot flash your lights if needed to signal you are ready to order. Service was prompt. Menu is limited but good for a driver in. Food came out in a short period of time and it was still hot. They left the tray on the window as expected. Prices were good, portion sizes were good. I found the food quality and taste were also good. What makes this place a must try is that is a drive in. There is an awning in case it's raining. Server was friendly and equipment was clean and in good order. Place was not packed but there seemed to be quite a few cars doing the same thing we were. I enjoyed it. Overall a good experience. Would I stop there again. If I find myself passing thru the area again I would definitely stop back in.

My last review stands but with updates. While I'd still say this has to be the best place available…read morein Peru, there are some inconsistencies. The ordering process is quirky. During the day, you order at the counter. Menus on a barrel to peruse. Nothing on the wall. You normally receive a number (not today) & your beverages & food are brought to your table. Today, I was given my coffee & water at the counter to carry, but my food was brought out. So, it's counter prepay, & you tip at that time, but it's also self serve at the condiment station while you're also being waited on table side somewhat, some of the time. Confused yet? I did dine here once during dinner hours. Since I was used to the other process, I didn't know you are seated in the evening & fully waited on. I like dinner time best though it's busier. You can get takeout anytime & sweets to go from the case or table. I believe they cater & might possibly deliver, at least for groups. There is also a section which can be reserved. I hadn't been in for a couple months, & hadn't seen my favorite lady for even longer. From chatting today, I don't think she remembered me. The man working the floor is especially great. He's a food runner & busser, etc. I was confused today, as was he, as he'd set something on my table while I was prepping my coffee at the sugar station. He asked if I'd had a bread stick or a pretzel, so I responded it was a pretzel because I had indeed ordered a pretzel stick from the menu. He ended up bringing out a full size pretzel after I sat down, & I felt badly because he thought I'd ordered that. I discovered the pretzel STICK is the same as a bread stick. He was friendly & told us to enjoy the mistake. The person with me was happy to find a device charging station. I'm not sure those are available at every table nor if WiFi is offered. The first timer liked her peach tea. You can get sweetened, unsweetened, or half n half. Cheese sauce is nacho with a lil kick. I fully appreciate that the staff will make me a fresh pot of decaf when I come in. Apparently, decaf isn't too popular around here, I'm finding. I rolled with it, but Garden Gate had Folgers in the past. The Kroger brand they used today definitely didn't taste as good. When I walked up to get a refill, I noticed it was really weak & watered down. I could see through it more than tea. Sometimes you get refills at your table. Not consistently anymore. None today. No non-dairy creamer or milk options nor raw sugar. Again, I roll with it. It's not really a coffee shop per-se. However, with "cafe" in the name... Garden Gate has surprisingly good spaghetti. Not like what I can make at home, but far better than what I expected during visits before today. I would like to see more plant based options, but I remember what town I'm in. You get used to making due with what you can get around here. No fish on the menu either nor any fried foods. Sandwiches come with chips or slaw. They do have a fired pizza oven. If you like meatloaf and mashed potatoes with green beans, this would be the perfect place for you. They have daily specials on a board. Their veggie wrap is okay. The bread/pretzel sticks are buttered & also okay. Mashed potatoes, great. Never had the green beans since may contain bacon. Garden Gate good with accommodating substitution requests. I do like the long bench in back so you can sit as you wait for carryout or to be seated in the evening. Quality furnishings & ambience although the barrels from the brewery this once housed don't exactly jive. It's nice there is a private parking lot with a side door since street parking downtown can be hairy, especially this close to the courthouse. Some outdoor seating. A lot more seating inside & much better air conditioning than the old location. Better tables and chairs which are actually comfortable unlike the old place. I don't like that they pool tips. I tip extremely well, & I would like it to go to the person I tipped. I'm also not a fan of tipping at the beginning of the visit. I'll over tip & not get stellar service afterward. Did they even see it? Now I feel like George Costanza. I have been given rather large to go cups of decaf in the past. I didn't even want to ask for one today. It's usually clean though sometimes the tables & ladies' room could use extra care. Dirty tables can pile up at times. Confusing system. Good food but not much that I want. I really just go to have somewhere in this town to sit & to KNOW it's actually decaf in my cup. Sometimes it's loud, sometimes not. Service isn't quite what it was when this location first opened. It can be hit or miss where I can feel #1 or forgotten. Service usually good but not above and beyond like 6 months ago. I'm sure I'll return because, honestly, where else am I going to go? Possibly the best in Peru, yes, but I'm adjusting stars for everything stated above. It could easily be a five with some tweaks, but I won't hold my breath.

I'd avoided this Subway location for over a year. New staff at the front who were much more…read morepleasant. The only issue was that half the toppings I requested on the app for my sandwich were missing, but they politely gave me what I was missing in a cup when I went back up to the counter and asked. I've been using the app because, in the past, no one at this store could scan the digital gift cards I had. The app has benefits such as earning cash toward future purposes and I can easily add coupons as well as gift cards. Word to the wise though - check your order before you leave if it's to go. This has always been a pretty clean dining room save for the cobwebs on the inside window above my booth. The ladies' room door wouldn't lock. The restaurant smells like Subway bread. Heavy metal is usually playing on the speakers as it was over a year ago. Once I had my missing toppings, my sandwich was decent. Lay's is really skimping on the amount of chips they put in the little bag of Baked Lay's I got. It weighs less than 2 ounces. For nearly $2, it's not really worth getting chips. My friend said the footlong Auntie Anne's pretzel was okay. She's had better but also had worse. It's just reheated and then brushed with butter. I'm not sure if it's real butter. Overall, attention to detail with sandwich preparation and cleaning could be turned up a notch. It's pretty expensive here now even with a coupon. I could easily eat at the restaurant nextdoor or the one across the street for the same amount or less. I'm not sure I'd go out of my way to return often, but it's alright overall. It was also unclear where to pick up an app order as the rack for orders was empty. Once the line cleared, an employee asked if I was waiting on an app order. My sandwich was completed before the small line formed, it seemed... I had a good visit despite the hiccups.

I've visited this location three times in the last six months, and I've been impressed each time we've come here.

Service has always been prompt, and their prices are fair.

Beef O'Brady's is the kind of place where go "I don't know what I'm in the mood for... Okay, Beef's…read moreit is." The extensive menu has the hamburgers covered superbly, does a credible fish 'n chips, has a passable Mexican/American section, good salads... basically if you can't find something that appeals to you here, you need to try harder. The beer list (from a full bar) is also more than adequate. (3 Floyds, I'm looking at you!) And I've never had a less-than-generous sample on the occasions I've asked. Also worth mentioning is the service. I've never once had a bad interaction with wait staff. Patient, knowledgeable, helpful... doesn't matter if they're slammed or dead (and Peru certainly serves up both), the wait staff is great. The whole "this is not quite a sports bar" vibe also works somehow. Lots of reasons to head to Beef's.

They still have the goofy hours closing at three. It felt dark & dingy. Pieces of trash on floor runners as walked to our seats. Pieces of napkin? The cloth seats of the booths are stained. Although it's always been overpriced, it's gone up even more, and it's just not pleasant now. Three women at the front hostess desk didn't acknowledge my party right away, and when one did, she seemed annoyed we were there. Our server wasn't any more welcoming nor friendly. Worse, actually. I received a large mug of decaf. No non-dairy options and given bowl of individual cups of half-and-half. While it proved to actually be devoid of caffeine, the coffee didn't taste good at all. Not sure what brand they must be using. No refills offered for our table, but I couldn't even finish this cup. $3.00 for this crap. Soft drinks are nearly $4, juice almost $3 and $4 depending on the size... Everything here is extremely overpriced. The portion of hash browns I was given was huge, but they were not good either. I normally have trouble with undercooked hash browns with no color when I go out. These were overcooked and too crunchy to get on a fork. Greasy. Rye toast okay. I'm sure real dairy butter. I didn't bother to ask... I'm glad they offer mushrooms. However, I could tell they came from a can. I also like that tomato juice is an option, but I didn't get that this time. Rye bread is a welcomed sight. Given checks before we were finished. No drink refills offered. I was never brought the straw the server said she owed me. She only had one on hand. You must take your check up front to pay. As annoyed as they seemed to have us come in the doors, you'd think they would have checked us out sooner. My two sides ala carte with coffee came to over $11 before tip. Not pictured, a lady at my table paid even more for a fountain drink and their granola and yogurt parfait with fruit. It looked good, but good Lord. $12 and change?? Just really unenthusiastic attitudes. Food quality and atmosphere went WAYYY down. I feel like I need a shower and to put my clothes in the wash from feeling greasy and having that oily smell cling to my shirt which was fresh when I went in. I don't know how this place is still in business other than the fact that it's one of the only restaurant options in this awful little town, so you don't have much choice if you want to go somewhere to sit down...
