    We stopped in at Circa 1880 on a recent quick trip to Abilene. We came back twice that weekend to eat there again. We are from the DFW area and I LOVE small, home-cooking places. If we can find them here in DFW, they are either blah and/or charge a million dollars. Circa on the other hand gave us heaping helpings of delicious, scratch-made food at affordable prices. Even though Circa has everything I look for in a home cooking eatery, the food was not the best part. The people, from the owners who stopped by our table to the waitress/waiter, were over-the-top concerned that we were taken care of and enjoying an exceptional experience. That is a level of service that is so rare to find and I absolutely would make the two hour drive to enjoy that kind of dinner again. It's a place to go where you feel like they actually care about the customer. In this economy where I have to be stingy with dollars, Circa 1880 is a place I'm happy to give my business to! Yummy food is just icing on the cake...oh and they had amazing cake too!

    Just driving through the area and stopped here for some dinner. I got the Cream Cheese Jalapeño Melt and my boyfriend got the Country-Fried Steak. Both meals were relatively inexpensive and came in GIANT portions. Absolutely fantastic home cooked food!! The building and town look like they came straight from an old-timey country movie. Really cute atmosphere and super friendly and personable staff. Can't wait to come back!

    This place is a hidden gem! We were from out of town looking for a new place to try and we found this amazing spot. The moment we walked in we were welcomed and felt at home with the customer service. We were told of the amazing things they had and what makes them so unique. The food was amazing and left us wanting to come back to try more things on the menu! We will back soon!

    The chicken fried steak was decent, although the flour taste in the crust came through very strong.

    July bride here! As an OCD individual wedding planning…read morehere...was A DREAM! Kalli is absolutely amazing and will answer any question you have every step of the way. She provides an excel spreadsheet that covers the majority of your basic planning questions tailored specific for the venue. DECOR IS INCLUDED (and gorgeous). There is a whole barn full of western/vintage decor that you are free to use. This saves so much time and money! For those of you reading the other reviews about it being hot in the summer because of no AC, THERE IS NOW AC! The reception hall and all the back rooms are fully air conditioned! If you want an easy wedding planning experience and a beautiful backdrop to marry the love of your life (that costs fractions of what it would at other venues), Sparrow Creek is the place to go! I can't recommend it enough! Check out the website, she is very straightforward about all the information and prices (another pro).

    We just had our daughters wedding at SCR. I cannot say enough amazing things about this place…read more First, Kalli was so helpful the entire time. She was quick to answer questions and sent tons of helpful information and checklists which helped me every step of the way. The venue is absolutely stunning! We used The Grove for our ceremony, however there are different areas you can use and they're all beautiful. The reception barn is rustic and so gorgeous in itself you don't have to use a lot of decor. Need decor!? No problem, this place has a plethora of decor you have access to. Kalli has a list of vendors she recommends and they too, did not disappoint!! SCR is not only affordable, you get the entire weekend. We decorated the day before and it was so nice and took stress away to be able to get that completed and not rush the day of. We were able to spend the day of wedding just getting ready and I, just enjoyed spending the day with my daughter. If this venue isn't close to you they have you covered there as well. Less than 1/2 a mile is Wildcatter Ranch and we had a wonderful stay there. Another plus to this venue is there are 2 bridal suites. We were able to get ready and hang out in one and the other was a beautiful location for bridal pictures. We did not have to rush around and clean to take pictures. If you choose this venue for your wedding....you will not be disappointed!!!
