    Canned peaches aka fruit bowl
    Jessica B.

    I genuinely don't understand how this place has such great reviews. Maybe their lunch is better than their breakfast? The coffee was decent and the servers were busy but nice. However, this restaurant needs to invest in some fresh produce. Everything is packaged and cooked up and it's evident. I ordered a fruit bowl for our two year old thinking it would be the usual mix of fruit like strawberries, blueberries, pineapple or some other tropical fruit. Nope. It was canned peaches. They didn't even take the time to drain the syrup off the peaches. His cinnamon roll? A packaged Big Texas cinnamon roll. Microwaved. I had the western omelet with rye toast (which came burnt). The cheese that comes with this? Strips of American cheese singles melted across the top. My boyfriend ordered their bacon breakfast horseshoe and the melted yellow cheese that came with this "horseshoe" was clumpy and tasteless. I really love diners/cafes but I would not come back to this one again.

    Very happy to see them this morning, especially with the employee pandemic going on. This was the 3 place I went to and the first that was open. Walked in and grabbed a seat. Waitress was passing by and asked if I wanted a coffee and a menu. Naturally I said yes. There was a bone in ham steak and two eggs special, but I chose the Western omelette and half order of biscuits and gravy. Everything was served promptly and was very good. Sorry I didn't get pictures. I was hungry.

    The is an old style restaurant. No frills. Coffee is quick to you and hot!!! Very busy. This is the local hang out for sure. That in my eyes is a very good thing. Servers very polite. Cash only no plastic here, but you will find an ATM next to the register so you can print your own money. Just got the horseshoe. Wow wow wow. Toast scrambled eggs sausage sausage gravy over it all and hash browns mounded on top. Amazing for sure. $7. A must restaurant in springfield.

    I come to Springfield once every 4 years or so, last time I had breakfast in town was at Charlie Parkers, and it was pretty good. So, This seemed to be the best next thing on Yelp. The place was half full, but we still had to wait for coffee and water (which you have to request). The server was nice enough, I tried the "HorseShoe" . It was awful. The cheese wiz or whatever that was, over powered the eggs, the hash browns, and made the toast buried under all this soggy and disgusting. There was some bacon in there too, that was nothing outstanding. My wife had an omelet that was nothing special. Her side order of American Fries, did not come till we asked for it. When it did arrive they were good. I would try it again, I can see why the "Horseshoe" never took off anywhere else. It was bad.

    One of my favorite breakfast places in town. Service is friendly and fast, and the food is cheap.

It's colorful, loud and tough with spirits! Now the kitchen inside the distillery is the Foundry Kitchen. It's a local haunt that sells pizza, salads, burgers, and various other food items. Get your grooves on and enjoy the eats of authentic food in all its glory. The service is great. When you order a soda from the bar they have free refills. They have complementary water in the lobby area that's self serve. They bring the food to the table based on the number assigned. Love the rich and spicy sauces they use. However you go make sure and have fries along with your burger or sandwich they are truly delicious. The best of evening fun, food, and brews here. I

    We stopped in Springfield on our road trip and found this place for a burger and it was very yummy…read more The only downside is they only offer HUGE burgers but we were able to share so it worked out for us. I also had one of their beers but can't remember which one, maybe it was blueberry?? It was good but a little sweet so wish I had gotten a smaller one. The fries were also great, obviously home made. I will say we sat outside because it was a gorgeous day but you can't walk back in the side door so you have to walk around to the front every time which was odd and inconvenient.

She even made a point to walk around and check on each table, making sure everything was perfect--that kind of attention really stood out. I ordered the Thai pork bowl, and it was absolutely packed with flavor--perfectly balanced with a little heat, a touch of sweetness, juicy pork, and a satisfying crunch from the coleslaw. The sauces tied everything together beautifully. My wife got the chicken ranch sandwich and couldn't stop raving about it. I took a bite myself and was seriously impressed. The chicken was incredibly juicy and flavorful, the bread was outstanding, and the candied bacon took it over the top--truly next-level. This sandwich was done right. To finish things off, we tried the oatmeal cream pie cookie, and it did not disappoint. It was soft, perfectly baked, and full of rich flavor. I even had to grab a side of that candied bacon to go--it was that good. We'll definitely be back.

Get the bread - you won't need it (the bowl is huge), but they make it and grill it and it is delicious. Get a cookie to have later (I ate mine over the course of 3 days). I recommend the chocolate peanut butter. The service is friendly and efficient. Ambience is okay. It's busy and the seating is a bit uncomfortable and tight, but they did maximize the utility of the space.

I ordered the Toasty-Subs Special Club with ham, turkey, bacon, and cheddar cheese, served toasted on sweet bread and added lettuce and tomatoes. You get the choice of a side and they have a ton of options from chips to a banana to a brownie. I went for the Parmesan ranch chips as I'd never seen this brand or flavor before. Great pick as the chips were really good. After I ordered I had no idea what the price was going to be as prices are not listed on the website or on the banner menu above the register. It was $12.99 before tax and tip. After snapping a picture of the whole sandwich for my Yelpers, I cut it into fourths. The bread was so fresh and delicious as were the rest of the ingredients. I would have loved double cheese as it got lost in the sea of meats after it was melted onto the ham. The huge sandwich ended up being three separate meals for me, so totally worth the price point. They also threw in a free sample of their Parmesan pesto pasta salad. Thank you kind sir, that was yummy too!
