I had a lavender drink and a peach sangria that were specials not on the main menu. We ate on the back deck (or was it a porch?) and had a good view of a field. I think we ordered a cheese board or a meat and cheese board, but it's been over a month now and I can't be sure. That lack of memory may indicate that we weren't raving about it and we weren't disappointed in it.

The Kelley Family and all of the staff at The Lodge have provided us with top notch service and care at every event for many years. They offer great Southern hospitality and charm right here in Illinois. First off, the water and soda at The Lodge tastes the best. I don't even drink soda, but I absolutely order one here. It's a nice treat after an afternoon of hiking. Second, be sure to try the fried chicken and fish served family style with all the sides. Their chicken and dumplings remind me of my grandma's homemade recipe. Lastly, don't forget to order a Dirty Martini or an Old Fashion at the bar behind the hostess station while you wait for a table.

The weather was perfect for it, and I love dining outside so when we walked in to be seated we asked for the balcony seating. You take the stairs up to the second floor and then walk out onto the balcony. Service was exceptional. Our waitress was knowledgeable, made suggestions, took our drink order and food orders quickly and brought everything right out. This time I ordered the chips and queso for a starter, and the chicken quesadilla for my meal. Both were very good. My husband had the CRP sandwich with crispy chicken and French fries. You can also get it with grilled chicken if you prefer. Everything came out hot and fresh. Large enough portions that half of everything went home for lunch the next day. Check them out!
