They serve pizza with thin crust, medium crust, and thick crust--so whatever your preference, they have a pizza crust to suit. Their toppings are varied and they have a few specialty pizzas as well. We opted for a sausage and onion pizza on a medium crust. It was good with just enough crust to be chewy. We typically enjoy vegetarian pizzas but their veggie selection was a bit uninspired (onions, peppers, mushrooms, and olives). They did have a BBQ chicken pizza which sounded good though! They also have a selection of salads. I got their side salad which was crisp iceberg, carrots, and cheese. It was basic but super fresh with housemade thousand island. For my cocktail, I got the whiskey smash, which was tasty (though a bit light on the whiskey). Our server was friendly and the prices are reasonable.

It had plenty of bacon, which was a plus, but could have used a bit more mayo -- of course, that's a personal preference. I had chocolate pie for dessert and it was delish! The slice was large enough to share. Staff was friendly and prompt. For lunch, the meal was a bit pricey, but what isn't nowadays?

My husband and I booked a cabin at Hidden Lake Winery for our anniversary at the recommendation of…read morefamily who raved about their experiences there (although it had been a few years since they'd been). After reading some concerning negative reviews, especially with a very rainy weekend forecast, we worried about a lackluster atmosphere and being confined indoors. We even agreed to cut our losses on the cabin and leave early if the experience was truly as bad as some reviews suggested. Thankfully, our stay was the complete opposite--a delightful surprise that exceeded all of our expectations! The cabin was spotless, cozy, and beautifully maintained, with no bugs inside (despite plenty outside, as you'd expect with any cabin in the woods). The jacuzzi was clean and relaxing, and we enjoyed complimentary breakfasts of bottled water, orange juice, and delicious muffins. We were even charmed by playful and curious baby foxes outside the cabin one morning. One of which came right up and peeked through our door window! The winery itself was a highlight. The food and wine were phenomenal. Quick and good service as well. We didn't do a wine flight, but requested to taste different wines at the bar before buying a glass and there was no deposit charge for the glasses as some reviews mentioned. There was plenty of covered outdoor seating that let us enjoy the views and atmosphere, despite the rain. Indoors, the upstairs offered board games and stunning views. Bartender Jeremy and owner Steve were friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to accommodate us with anything we needed, and even offered some great conversation! Steve's 3 dogs often accompany him to the winery and they are so gentle and sweet! You'll also find pictures of them throughout the inside of the winery! While heavy rain prevented us from hiking around the lake or to the waterfall, we had an amazing weekend. We can only imagine how amazing of an atmosphere it must be on a sunny day with live music! We left feeling grateful for such a wonderful anniversary and eager to return. I truly don't understand the negative reviews. Give this place a shot!

Absolutely beautiful location with nice areas to sit, relax and enjoy the outdoor atmosphere…read more Definitely recommend it for a venue or a place to relax and enjoy the afternoon. Unfortunately, all of the wines were slightly less than just OK. Definitely don't recommend any of them which was disappointing. The biggest negative was the fact they charge a five dollar glass fee for every glass to ensure you return it when you do a tasting. I've never seen this at a winery before. Frankly, most vineyards encourage you to take their glass so they have the enduring advertising. The highlight of our visit was the patriotic theme and sincere appreciation for our service members. Thank you for that.

This Casey's showed what small town hospitality and customer service is all about…read more The ladies who work here go beyond the call of duty and it is done with a smile and positive attitude. As seen in my Savvi review, we were in need of safety pins in the middle of rural America and Casey's was the only store we found. I parked to the side of the building and ran in to see if they had a travel sewing kit for sale. Brad was still stressing in the car. They had nothing with safety pins for sale. We were totally out of luck. Or were we? Not here in Aviston, IL. One of the ladies looked at me and said, "Someone having a wardrobe malfunction?" I told her yes, not a bad as Janet Jackson's, but we were having problems and didn't want to leave our friends wedding. As luck would have it, her daughter happened to be in the store too. This lady who had never seen or meet me before sent her little girl home to get a bag of safety pins out of her sewing box. While the little girl was gone, I went back in to get cups of ice so we could fix drinks out of our cooler. I was so happy they were helping me get safety pins I gave them a $1 for ice. The other worker looked at me and laughed and said, "Ice don't cost that much." here's your change. I told her to keep it and they refused. The little girl (I'd say she was 10-11) returned on her bike with a bag of safety pins of all sizes. I went back to Brad in the car and began to use all the skills I learned doing costumes in theater. Pants were pinned well enough to give him through a reception as long as he didn't get out on the dance floor. When I went back inside to return the unused pins, (I did keep a few extra in my pocket just in case we had a relapse) I presented the young girl with a $10 bill for her kindness running home on her bike. She, like her mother said, "No thank you, I am just paying it forward and you do the same." Wow, that was amazing to hear from a 10 year old. I told her I believe in paying forward and I still wanted her to have the $. I suggested doing something nice for someone else with it, she gave in and took the $. On the way home, we stopped again to say thanks and buy some sweet treats for the ride home. They say there is nothing like southern hospitality, but I think the country folks are even better.
