We hadn't been to Doc's Diner for many years. How long you ask? The last time we were there doc was still alive and smoking was prevalent if not mandatory there. Well, of course, some things have changed. No smoking anymore and lots of slot machines in the back. But one thing hasn't changed. The food is still delicious and inexpensive and the service is still friendly. We each had an omelette and they were huge. Tons of bacon and sausage on each of them. This place is definitely worth trying. read more

Doc's Diner - Sausage omelette with taters and bacon omelette - Diners Near Me - Loves Park, Illinois

Stopped on a very busy Sunday morning. This place is packed! Definitely a greasy spoon classic 50s style diner. The food is good. The portions are large and they use American cheese in everything. lol A 4% fee when paying with a credit card is absolutely ridiculous and this is something that will have us not coming back read more

My wife and myself thought we would visit Docs and have their raved about biscuits and gravy. We must of picked the wrong day because our food was awful, the gravy tasted like wall paper glue and the sausage had no flavor. The serving size was huge. We didnt eat but a couple of bites and left. The waitress asked us if the food was ok and I didn't have the heart to say it was terrible and told her we were full and couldn't eat any more. read more

This little gem, is located in a strip mall at the end. My girlfriend told me you have to get here before church lets out on Sunday, or you will be waiting a long time. We got here early. The food is phenomenal. Great motif inside, race, cars, and 50's theme. I had the Denver omelette, with American fries, and sourdough toast. Homemade biscuits and gravy are a specialty, very reasonably priced, and plenty of parking. The staff is very friendly and they make you feel welcome. Definitely stop in here if you're in the area. read more

Good food, good service, good atmosphere. Standard breakfast menu items. I had Biscuits and Gravy it was delicious.

Hubby and I stopped in for breakfast while staying in Marathon. Ordered the eggs, bacon, sausage and pancakes. Delicious!! I am not a big pancake fan but these were the best I ever ate. Hubby had corned beef and hash and enjoyed it. Great customer service too!! read more

As a little greasy spoon dinner this place did not disappoint. Sat at the counter and was waited on by sassy smart mouthed waitress and was served a breakfast just like I'd make at home. All in all the typical breakfast diner experience. read more

Doc's Diner - a menu for a restaurant - Diners Near Me - Loves Park, Illinois

An interesting little diner spot in Loves Park Expectation level: Mom and Pop diner Pros: - Popular spot for the locals. Some see it as a viable breakfast spot. A lot of lottery promoting here -All you can eat Friday fish fry. This is the real reason why I come here -Owner frequently interacts with the customers. You can tell they care about the business. Cons: -Food is generally average, but sometimes I've had some exceptional fish frys -This place is a little odd in terms of atmosphere. Has a 50's diner look but it definitely looks a little aged. Bottom line: -My cousin loves this place so I will be back. A good little diner joint. Won't knock your socks off, but it is a good meal. read more

Not impressed I ordered the biscuits and gravy. The gravy lacked flavor and the biscuits were dry. I also had a soda that had something floating in it. The place a bad oder and the waitress had her thumb in my plate when she brought my food. I will not return. read more

Had an excellent meal, loved the staff cannot wait to go again. Wish I could give Docs more stars.. Great food and friendly staff..

Good breakfast food for your money, especially a few eggs or the macon omelette. Waitstaff is friendly, personable, and talks up most anyone that comes in. Popular spot amongst first responders looking for a good, quick, solid breakfast. Ambiance is a little outdated but the coffee is hot and the smiles are warm! If you need the occasional breakfast spot for some change of pace, this one is worth your time. read more

Normally a good place with decent food but a horrible atmosphere. Takes forever to get coffee and food and they don't serve who ever is there first. Sometimes the food is really bad and sometimes it's good. I give it a 5/10. read more

The eggs over easy & American fries I ordered were a travesty & after a few bites there was the longest hair I've ever seen. Then they made me pay for the cup of coffee I only half drank. Worst place I've ever been in my life. read more

They have the best Stuffed Biscuits & Gravy! (Sausage patty, egg & cheese stuffed in the biscuit..) Yum! :) Their Friday Fish Fry is also one of the best in the Rockford area. Light batter, never greasy, and leftovers are even delish the next day. We adore this place! read more

Went for 1st time and definitely will be returning! Went for fish after reviewing the places listed for best in Rockford and been to other places listed but never heard of Docs... Must say beats others hands down. Great fish fry, lIke eating a Shore lunch! Besides that outstanding service with very personable staff.. Thanks, Robert M. read more

Best food for breakfast in loves park. Biscuits and gravy are the absolute best. Highly recommend anything off the menu.

As far as diners go, this place is nothing special. I tried this place out because I heard it had the best biscuits and gravy in the Rockford area. Sad to say, I was disappointed! The biscuits and gravy were dry, the biscuits were not great and the gravy lacked any flavor. This may just be me being a Bs and G snob because I feel that I make delicious biscuits and gravy, but I think that this place is very mediocre. The diner itself is OK as far diners go. Nothing special, but it was odd and somewhat uncomfortable how there was no music what-so-ever in that place though. The prices are extremely cheap BTW, which I guess it goes to show you get what you pay for. I will continue my search for a great non-chain breakfast place in the Rockford area and not look back. read more

This is by far the best place to get breakfast in town. Fantastic biscuits and gravy with thick sliced bacon! After living here my whole life I've tried just about every breakfast joint in town and Docs takes the top spot. Not only do you get good food but the employees are extremely friendly. read more

Best omelet I have ever had in my life ! "They don't skimp "on quality by using cheaper ingredients like other ..... ! Link sausage out of this world as well ! Only issue waitresses could refill coffee cups a lit'l faster / had to wait when shouldn't for refill. Definitely my new favorite breakfast and will continue to ....... read more

For people that are tired of the same old chain restaurants in the area, Docs is the place to go. A great meal for a small price. I highly recommend the meat skillet for you big eaters. The owners are extremely friendly and my wife and I look forward to having a meal at Docs. read more

Walked in, sat down. 2 other tables came in, sat down. The other 2 tables got coffee, water, AND their orders taken. We still sat there. Finally, I turned around and looked at the 3 people standing around. I think my stern look, made her realize we still didn't get coffee. She came over, gave us coffee, as others looked on. After I realized the other 2 tables had ordered, I told Todd, i'm leaving. It was a weird feeling. People kept looking at us as if we didn't belong. I went to the register and paid for my coffee, which I never even took a sip. Todd took 1 sip! She still charged us for 2 coffees. When she asked how everything was, I let it go! I told her, 2 tables walked in after us, they got coffee AND their orders taken. She continued to take my money. I will NEVER go back to Doc's. Not sure if they are just stupid as a waitress or prejudice! Either way, I'll take my money elsewhere. read more
