Right now as long as you're coming from the west you can drive directly to the restaurant before the road is closed for construction (7/2026). We split a 2 egg with bacon breakfast and enjoyed it immensely. The house strawberry jam was really good. The hash browns were perfectly prepared if a bit greasy. The eggs ordered over medium were just a bit overcooked but we wanted to be sure the whites were fully done. My wife especially liked the cure on the bacon. Our server was prompt, friendly and attentive. She did a great job. It was interesting seeing how the original restaurant was converted rail cars and later expanded into what they have today. We heartily recommend Stoby's if you're ever in the area.

If you are hungry don't get caught on the "wrong side of the tracks."…read more Stoby's is a railroad themed diner that sits adjacent to and across the tracks from the old Russellville train depot. There is some needed street and bridge improvements happening right now in the area, so navigation to Stoby's may not match your GPS recommendations. By the way, the old Russellville train depot is a museum that might be worth a visit after breakfast. Outside around back at Stoby's, you will notice a couple of Pullman cars that are actually part of the restaurant that you can dine in. The Pullmans are likely set up to handle groups. See the pictures from the outside and inside. The restaurant has a model railroad track that winds its way throughout the dining area. It was not running today. I suspect as a result of some type of Railroad Labor Union dispute. Mostly booths in the main dining area. Overall, it is a big restaurant. We were seated promptly and with menus; the drink orders processing while we studied the menu. The restaurant has daily specials, but we weren't railroaded into those options. The very nice waitress gave us plenty of time to study the menu and make a selection of our choice. My wife went for the Taco Salad; this ain't no Mexican joint but that's what she wanted. This is a southern food diner. The taco salad was similar to a school cafeteria, lunch taco salad. All the ingredients were fresh; the meat well was seasoned. The sauce came from a bottle. No, this ain't a Mexican restaurant. My wife liked the salad though. My meal was tasty and about as southern as it could get. Good cream gravy over a crunchy fried chicken breast, a cup of mashed potatoes with more cream gravy, and green beans with bacon. A slice of buttered Texas toast on the side to wipe the plate clean. No derailment at our table. It was a good meal with friendly service. Our ticket said Melissa was the conductor. Be sure to check the pie case up front!

It's been a while since I've been here…read more This is a great place to eat and celebrate and if you plan in advance even have a little bit of a party. Today we came for Sunday lunch and enjoyed quiche. Lorraine and the kids had spaghetti with meat sauce. We had a black forest cake for dessert and also ice cream sundaes for the kids. We drank Whitaker's sparkling grape juice for our meal. It was a great hit. The kids really enjoyed it and they said they wanted to come back soon! It's probably been five or six years since we have been here and the kids really didn't remember it. We did learn that they're not giving tours of the wine cellar since Covid at least not without some kind of special arrangement. The service was excellent and I would add the same lady that waited on me today was waiting on me many years ago when I first visited here when I was 11 years old. That's been more then 40 years ago.

Every dish we received was delicious. Two of our group ordered soups which were both heavy on the cream, which some like and some don't. The options were really good as far as being able to order some lighter things that were still tasty as well as some nice, heavy southern food which was also very tasty. The catfish was piping hot, fresh, and crispy. The burgers were juicy, and the white gravy had really nice flavor and tasted fresh and homemade. For the area, I'd definitely recommend stopping by!

I was barely seated and the server was there to take my drink order. Things were looking really good at this point. My drink arrived quickly. It was a bottled beer and it was well chilled. The server took my order which included a side salad. The server told me to help myself to the salad at the salad bar. Everything looked fresh on the salad bar except for the lceburg lettuce, which had a lot of pinking around the edges. Thankfully there was also a much fresher looking spring greens lettuce mix available as well. So after getting my salad I returned to my table. Sat down and ate my salad, drank my beer, drank most of my water and waited. My server was nowhere to be seen. There was no servers to be seen. There was a large group table in front of me who were already seated when I got there and they didn't have their food and a table behind me, a man with two kids who came in a minute or two after me, who didn't have their food either. After about 25 minutes after finishing my salad my food arrived, via a different server than the one who took my order. I have to say the food was well cooked and portion sizes were good. The food for the man and two kids came out just after mine but the food for the big group didn't arrive until I was paying my bill. Not sure if they asked for the food to be delayed or if the kitchen was having issues getting everything cooked but it certainly seems like the kitchen is not in a hurry to get orders done and out. No one ever asked if I needed a refill on my drinks or ask if I needed anything. I would have given a lower score but the food was good and the view is fantastic.
