So good.
Adonis P.

This place was a total surprise. First of all, it's in a truck stop. I used to subscribe to the theory that any restaurant in a truck stop was going to be divey at best. So I would typically pass them up for "better" fare. Man now I wonder what I've been missing! After a long hot morning of flea markets & garage sales, my family and I were understandably famished. So we discussed potential stops. Well after about 10 minutes of shooting down each others suggestions, we figured we'd hit the road and just stop somewhere that came up. The first place we came to was the old Tekhi truck stop (now called TA Battle Creek). I've known about this truck stop for decades and it's never even crossed my mind to eat here. So anyway we stop for gas, and my bro suggests we may as well eat here. I'm extremely doubtful but mom is tired so she says "sure, why not.". So we head into the restaurant, called "Country Pride". Immediately we were struck at how clean and welcoming it was! I stopped in the restroom to wash my hands and it was huge, spotless, and super modern! By the time I came out, my family had already been seated. Our waitress was this amazing little lady who was so complimenting and accommodating! I know she was shilling for tips, but it really felt sincere :) She informed us that the best thing in the spot was their buffet. It sounded like a good move as we were all starving. MAN was it a good move! it wasn't the biggest buffet I've ever been to, but every dish was fresh, pipping hot, and TASTY! Great selection of southern home style comfort foods! Mac & Cheese, mashed potatoes, fried catfish, greens, meatloaf, fried chicken, buttered corn, fresh baked bread, etc.. man I'm getting hungry typing this! I couldn't fill my plate fast enough. Everything was cooked to perfection. As a matter of fact, my one & ONLY gripe was their very limited dessert selection, but it's a small gripe as I was really too full to indulge anyway :) To sum it up - Visit this spot! Food that will make you miss your grandma, and great service! Price for the buffet was around $12-13 if I remember correctly. I learned my lesson about being snobbish about truck stops!

Delicious.

Only thing I went for everytime is the bacon jalapeño ranch burger. Dumb . Ask for extra ranch. Tip is a must because it's so worth it.

I went there a few weeks ago when the wall was at Harbor Creek for the Vietnam veterans. We met up…read morewith my brother-in-law several other members of our family. And had lunch it was delicious. I had taco salad the best. I'm telling you it was really nice. So I want to go back another night for another taco salad it was horrible. I think the fact that they probably make it in the afternoon or morning and they let us sit all day and serve it in the evening and by then the lettuce has no crunch not much flavor at all. I was so disappointed. The service was good and yes, we tipped generously because we know it wasn't the waitress's fault. No, we didn't bring it to the attention of the waitress. We lived and learned go early in the day.

I've given them 5 stars a couple of times but couldn't do it this time. First, our waiter was not…read moregood. He spent more time in the kitchen and chatting with other staff. The loaded potato soup had good flavor but the celery was nearly raw. If you look at my previous posts I'm all for their soups. I also got the loaded spaghetti. It was dry and the sauce was way too tomato pastey. I would have sent it back but our waiter never came back until it was past time to get paid. Pretzel and beer cheese were good. My honey got the French onion burger which was very good but he got very few sweet potato fries to go with it.

We sat outside to enjoy the live jazz music. Jazzers were excellent and fun, playing a lot of classics. The audience was engaged, and the patio is huge. Hospitality. Service was friendly and accommodating. Offerings. Food and drinks were overall good. We had appetizer plate and scarfed it down. But we were too full to try desserts that seemed plentiful to pick. Of Note and Last Impressions. The loo was clean and stocked. We would come back mostly for the venue and the jazz. Nothing beats live music, dining outside, and relaxing near the river. Very cool. Would recommend.

Visited early Saturday evening for dinner…read more We had a table immediately however, the young ladies at the host stand were not professional. Passively greeted and sat us between their giggling chit chat. We were sat against the shut door that was pouring cold air. Of all the empty tables, why anyone is ever sat at that table in the winter, either doesn't care or isn't paying attention. The grime on the menus confirms the host stands needs to step up their attention to their work. The waitress was great. Very attentive. Made a mistake with a quick fix. Service could not have been better. She took our order and we scanned the room and decor. The cold draft was getting annoying but was quickly overshadowed by the group of men in the corner shouting and one kept frickin whistling in response to the raucous laughing and shouting. Where was management to ask them to tone it down a bit? Whistling! Like you're calling a dog in from the yard. Clearly he just wanted all eyes on him and their group. It was insanely inconsiderate because it went on for 20 mins. The 20 mins until they left. Idk if they were that loud before we arrived or what kicked up the volume. They weren't watching a game. They were sitting in a big circle like a group discussion. Anyway. The good was fine. Nothing special. The stuffed mushrooms came in a half moon dish on a plate with nothing on the side. It was strange but tasty enough. Salad was huge but I think they forgot the tomatoes and cucumbers. Homemade ranch really set it off. Reasonable prices and quick service. Glad to leave when we were done and warmup in the car.

There are TVs everywhere, so it's a great spot if you're looking to catch a game. The service was outstanding from start to finish. My son and I both got the Rory O'Conner Burger. I wasn't sure about the peanut butter at first, but it was actually a really good burger. I'd definitely order it again. My wife had the nachos, and they were really good too. They were on special for only $7.50, which was an awesome deal. There's also a nice little patio if you'd rather eat outside. Overall, this place gets an easy 5 out of 5 from me. Good food, great service, fun atmosphere, and reasonable prices. We'll definitely be back.

After getting my potato soup I guess I should have hoped it took even longer because the potatoes weren't close to being cooked completely. While the flavor of the lukewarm soup wasn't bad the crunchy, undercooked potatoes ruined the meal. I would have complained but based on the service I didn't want to prolong the visit any longer. If visiting downtown Battle Creek take the time to look for another option because I'm sure there are better options.
