Locally owned. Not a chain. They have a frequent buyer punch card. Good thing because prices not cheap: I got a small hot chai that set me back about $4.50. But I'm an ol' cheapskate. Only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is due to high prices. But like I said, I'm a cheapskate. Place looks like it was initially constructed to be a quick oil change place, and that's how it works for drinks too. Pull right up into the bay and they come to your car or you pull up to the window. They also have a walk up window outside. So nice to see LOCALLY owned, operated small businesses like this, instead of another chain franchise that helps homogenize America..

I got the breaded cause that's the only way I've ever had it going back to my IL childhood. The meat is massive and looks ridiculous on the bun (in a great way). Most importantly it was cooked to perfection. Crisp breading, tender pork inside. And a side of good fries as well. Couple that with a Revolution IPA on tap and I am in heaven. Great dinner. I always have great service and the friendly manager greets us every time. It's a bar and grille but there are a few options for those that want something lighter or healthier. My wife opted for the Mediterranean chicken which was a pesto sauce. She liked it, although there was no pasta which is a bit odd but tasted really good.

11th Hour was so good I stopped in twice in one week! Both visits got us seated quickly. The menu…read morehas tons of great options. The first time I got the Steak House Burger with a side of curds. I asked for no onion and it came loaded with them, that was unfortunate. I picked as many as I could off and luckily it didn't ruin the taste too much. I got a side of fried cheese curds. They were a little overdone (the cheese leaked out, so it was a bunch of empty shells. My second visit was better. I got the Don Julio burger and fries. Everything was cooked beautifully and the toppings were just what I ordered this time. The fries were a perfect golden brown. So good! Great service, good food!

High price for quality and quantity. Entres were fine price but lacking on the pizazz.

My memory is that everything else was a la carte - and the side dishes were overpriced. Stopped by again in December of 2025 - delightful experience!

We placed our order and waited. A few more tables filled. A few tables left. We waited. And waited. And waited. We watched as the tables nearby got served - even though they came after us. A query to the waitress and she responded - yours are next. Then we get 4 of our 6 orders. And waited for the other two. The. One of the orders was not cooked fully, so she then waited. Did I mention it took an HOUR from order to first delivery, and then longer for the two chicken sandwiches, then longer for the re-fire on the under cooked burger. The burger I had was good but in no way worth any type of wait. And the place wasn't even packed!! Good burgers and onion rings. EXTREMELY SLOW SERVICE. And really not attentive for a small town restaurant. I would pass on this place. It's good but not worth a trip out of the way, nor worth waiting.

Classic roadside stand in Thomson for ice cream and fast food. It was on a drive along the…read moreMississippi River that we came across it, which is one of the few places to eat in town. Bear's Drive-Inn caught our attention with the big bear on the side of the building. Pretty basic drinks and food as expected. The prices are pretty good for the area it seems. About the only people who come here are the locals and those who happen across it whole coming through going to somewhere else. It was warm and we thought to stop here. This is like the local version of Dairy Queen it seems. Got some cold treats including the Frazil. It's about $1.50 for the small one. This is basically a slushie. As for the hot food, it's basic. It's about $3 for a pretzel. This may be the healthiest food really. Other items are burgers and hot dogs. These looked pretty greasy from what we could see. Of course don't expect healthy. This is one of the few places to eat for miles. Has okay stuff but it's a classic. It's pretty easy to spot with the big bear on it. They're cash only, which is another bad thing.
