The drive between Chicago and Danville can be a long one...and there is no direct route. You find…read moreyourself driving through VERY flat farmland and VERY small towns like St. Anne, Watseka, Hoopston, et al. But if you want to take a break, grab a beer and get some good homemade bar grill food, turn off the main drag (in this case, Highway 1) and go a block or two into the business district of Milford, where there is an awesome little bar with an upfront grill (the cleanest I've ever seen) dishing up homemade soup, awesome burgers and pub food, great deep fry, and some kind of daily special -- including a home made desert (we had awesome pumpkin bars but they usually have pie). On weekends they have crazy cheap steak, fish fry, and prime rib specials. You have to put up with the country music channel on the tv...(but on the flip side they have free wifi, so don't bitch). All in all it's clean, cheap, good, and friendly -- so why waste your change on fast food when you can get food fast, homemade good, and with a water back? It's the most pit-stop worthy place on a long empty haul where the only other attraction is an old corn silo with a tree growing inside it -- we call it the "Hannibal Lecter tree" and a big funny billboard for the "Hoopston corn jerkers." If you grew up a corn jerker, you NEED a friendly place like the Hangout. And it was even open on Easter! Hallelujah, brother, pass the fried pickles and corn nuggets!

PJ's Pub is where to get cold drinks, and if you're lucky there's frozen pizzas. A place that looks like someone's backyard bar. The prices are pretty cheap at least. Basically it's a neighborhood bar. It's close to a lot of things in the so called downtown. The bar is located along some kind of back street with a sketchy looking parking lot. Inside it's not much better. The good thing is they have tons of beers, including a few that are on tap. It's about $4 for a basic cocktail. We got some and these were pretty watery. Food is nonexistent except for bags of chips for about $1 or so. They also apparently have frozen pizzas, but last time they were out of these. Has a few TVs for watching games. The bar is pretty close to houses so there's been lots of noise complaints of patrons. For a bar in a small town like this, it's pretty okay compared to others around it. It's located on Ladd at Madison. They're open every day and early, so customers can have fun in the morning or something.

They make their own bloody Mary mix in house. They also make the cole slaw and it was delicious. We stopped at this place on the way to St Louis from Michigan. It is not right off the exit but I would forego the fast food and go the one more mile for some great food and fresh beer. It is a local bar with a hometown feel but you don't feel unwelcome.

We ended up taking a random exit out of I-57, and by chance chose the lovely, 600-person town of Buckley, IL, and happened upon this lovely bar. Walking in, this bar immediately screamed "1 star." It smelled putrid of cigarettes. Lighting was stale. There was no drink menu! But there were little golden sparkles: 1- free, solid pool table (which we used) 2- a barber shop in the back (???? what? but the barber was this sweet old man) 3- a nice little table with a new deck of cards 4- a soft-spoken, friendly bartender. 6- a row of fully running, new-looking video casinos. We left ultimately because of the clientele. One of the old, drunk men (looked like a group of regulars) asked my guy friend: "Are you trying to get into her pants? I bet you can't, they're so tight." I wouldn't say I'd ever go back, but this place does have its redeeming points.
