Ordered Rock fish. So small a cut and overcooked! No way should it have been served. Doubt we will be back.

Their food is good. However you have to pray they are open when you go to have lunch or dinner. It's a crap shoot if they want to be open. They do have good food when they are open. read more

This is not my jam. My jam is feeling like I'm not over paying for average food, and getting friendly service. My 1st visit was nice, my 2nd visit, not so much. My waitress made me feel like I was more of a burden, than a valued customer. I couldn't order pizza, which is most of their menu, because "they aren't doing that", they said wings weren't available, and no Cod. So, I had the worst nachos I've had in my 48 years of life. read more

Great place for food! The burgers are over the top large and juicy. Several to choose from. Other options are just as tasty.

Best place in town, been going here for years. The staff is amazing as well. Never a bad time

Hadn't been to Quincy in forever but seeing as it's now shoulder season we needed to drive up and have a bite to eat somewhere. I was really hoping for eggs benny (saw country Benny and just assumed there would be regular too) but unfortunately there wasn't. There was however a very cute restaurant, fairly priced, with good food and excellent service. The bloody Mary's were impressive and my scramble was good too. We'd certainly come back if we were in the area. read more

If you're in Quincy and you're looking for burgers, Idle Hour is definitely your best option. Heck, even if you're not in Quincy, Idle Hour still has some pretty great burgers and fries. I've had a few different burgers off their burger menu. You can't really go wrong with any of them. But, my go-to burger is the American Burger. It comes lathered with a sweet & spicy BBQ sauce, crispy bacon, cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onion on a ciabatta roll. And let me tell you, the bacon on this burger is the real deal. The bacon slices are fat, super crispy, and awfully delicious. This is how bacon is supposed to be done. With any of their burgers you'll get a wonderfully juicy meat patty. Not only do they have awesome burgers, the fries are SO GOOD. They come to you piping hot and crispy as can be. They are seasoned really well and they go great with their Fry Sauce. If they don't ask if you want the Fry Sauce, you guys should tell them you'd like it. It's nice and smokey, with a little bit of sweetness. Great with the fries and the burgers in my opinion. There seems to be two sections in the restaurant. One where you need to be 21+ to sit in and one where it doesn't matter how old you are. If you look a little bit on the young side, you might want to bring in your ID so you can sit wherever. PS. You lose a lot of freshness and crispness when you take the food to-go rather than eat in. Still tastes great! But, you'll miss the crispness of the bacons and fries. read more

Idle Hour Eatery & Spirits - Bacon Avocado Salad with Raspberry Vinaigrette - American Near Me - Quincy, Washington

Idle hour has been a long time favorite of Quincy professionals. The name is more than just a tittle, it a way of life in the sleepy Central Washington farming town . I have had the pleasure of working in this town and eating literally hundreds of meals here. If you are expecting fast food, go hit up Mc Donald's , but if truly great service and fresh foods at a slower pace is what you need, you came to the right place. Rosie is the owner, he and his wife cook up some of the best meals I've had the pleasure of eating. While in town this last week I took 9 of my staff to idle hour and was pleased it wasn't totally packed. I will tell you arrive before 12 pm or you will have to wait. If you roll up and find it's closed when you thought it should be opened, don't get too upset, they do on close from time to time because of needs of the owner. If you have eaten here, none of this is news. In you haven't , Why? Get there! Thanks for reading Cris read more

Always good, always fast, great service and waiters/ waitresses. The green chili burger is absolutely incredible

we've eaten a lot of great food around the world and we were not disappointed here! The Parmesan garlic wings and the bourbon bacon burger were right up there with the best we've had. The staff was great as well! read more

Food, drinks, service, & ambiance all are amazing here. I am here once or twice a week. Best spot in Quincy !w

Have been here a hand full of times..food is good and staff is friendly! Had an awesome Valentine's drink, with dry ice, on the menu! It was delish! read more

Idle Hour Eatery & Spirits - Valentine's Day drink...had dry ice in it! - American Near Me - Quincy, Washington

Great food and drinks! Love the ambiance! Great service as well! Highly recommended! Glad my husband took me here

Don't miss out on this little gem! Delicious Affordable Quiet Friendly staff!! A huge read more

Don't come here if you are looking for typical good service. Everything about this place was SO slow! It wasn't even busy or crowded and it took over 50 minutes from when we ordered breakfast to when we got it. While we waited we ran out of coffee. We had to ask twice for more water. We were never ch ed cred on once we did get our food. Just slow, poor service all together. There were a lot of people working too, just not paying attention to the customers. The food did taste good. We didn't get the side of bacon we ordered, and were still charged for it. But all in all the meal tasted good. I won't be back. Too much of a hassle. read more

Love it. Ryan, Tim, Tiff and I were here on a random weekend (ok,not so random - it was Sasquatch weekend) and stumbled on Idle Hour Cafe with the help of yelp (and the fact nothing else was open). We didn't know what we would get because of the concert mob, but we had a great experience here. The food was insnaely slow (almost an hour) and the menu was reduced in anticipation of the volume of people, but the waitress was super nice and kept of relatively entertained, so the long wait for the food wasn't so bad. Would definitely come back on a non-concert weekend. read more

The service was really good here. They did their best to accommodate all of the needs of our party. I was a bit bummed they ran out of chicken but found something to eat anyway. read more

Always delicious, no matter the meal. Great and friendly service. There may be a little bit of a wait but it's absolutely worth waiting every minute. Best local food. read more

Terrible service, weak drinks, awful customer service, the only good bartender/server there is named Eric I think, or Shawn, skinny white guy. There are like 7 people working at a time but nothing is ever getting done, food is like frozen meals at best, if they even have menu items...if you're not a local I wouldnt even bother going here, you get served last and never taken care of, if you're a churchy trump supporter you'll fit right in though, ZERO STARS!!! Get a manager in there to figure things out, 7 people working behind the bar should result in fast service and never an empty glass...go literally anywhere else in town if you can... read more

Good food, nice staff, good atmosphere. Watching the game or hanging out with friends it's always a good time.

Ohhhhhh boy did this place hit the spot! After a long, hot day, we were ready for an early dinner. This place had our kinda menu- burgers, salads, onion rings, full bar, etc...so in we went! The resturant is cozy and clean and features many TVs with various sports on. When we asked our waiter if they had a drink menu, he said no, but with a smile said, "We've got just about everything so we can make you whatever you'd like!" which was very hospitable. I had an awesome grilled chicken burger with fries. Do NOT miss out on these fries!! Crunchy on the outside but soft and perfect on the inside and perfectly seasoned. So good! My boyfriend had a chicken ceasar salad. He liked it but the main star was the pretzel roll it came with. How are those not on the appetizer menu? Delicious. We also split an order of mozzarella sticks. They were very clearly homemade and HUGE. Gooey cheese escaped a few spots of the crunchy breading and they were very satisfying. If you're in town- stop by and try this family resturant!! read more

My first time at this resturant was back in 2017 and I found that the service was on point and the food was delicious. I've return back here in May of 2019 and the service is a hit or miss but the food hasn't been great the past 4 times I've gone. I always ask for a med rare burger and it comes back well done. Only thing I've found great was the beer. For the price you spend here the food could be better. read more

We really like this business. Excellent food, good service and good atmosphere. Special occasions - this is the place in Quincy to go.

My husband & I were in Quincy on a rainy Tuesday looking for a lunch spot whose majority of their menue was not Mexican food - just wasn't in the mood. Found this place, thanks to Yelp! Everyone had the same idea as most tables were taken. We shared the 4 piece fried chicken with tots & wishing I hadn't shared. Delish! Nicely browned, but cooked through & juicy. Service was excellent. We'll be back for sure! read more

Nice girls, but terrible servic. Way under staffed for a Sunday morning. My husband and I waited 45 minutes to get our food. I ordered a veggy omelet, instead I got a scramble with mushrooms and broccoli. No tomatoes, etc like what was stated on the menu. My husband and I both liked the sausage links ordered on the side, but found our hashbrowns to have a freezer burn taste and his biscuits were just 'eh. read more

Was in town for Paradiso festival this past summer and heard about this "hole in the wall" from a random local while stopping at an auto parts store in town. They recommended getting a burger here.. it was the best advice I'd ever received from a stranger. The burgers were great, big, gourmet style burgers in a variety of different concoctions. The staff was SUPER friendly. My fiance and I spent about an hour just chatting with the owner and learning the history of the restaurant. I'll definitely be going out of my way to visit this place again. Rest assured I'll be bringing back more friends this time! read more

Sysco food assembled fairly well. The staff is nice, but there is one waitress that let her halo fall around her trident . They try and are also the best American food next to the McD's in the good. read more

Great place to eat in Quincy! I've been going here for a while but recently was left on hold for a takeout order for 20 minutes. Then had to wait another 20 minutes for my food that was less than tasty. However I gave a 4 star rating because most of the time that I do go to this restaurant I have a good experience. read more

A super tasty pancake and a fabulous cup of coffee, beautiful restaurant, and the staff was incredibly helpful, friendly, and attentive. Everyone at the table liked their breakfasts and I thoroughly enjoyed my meal! read more

An outstanding place in a tiny town! Food is great and the staff goes out of there way for you! Owner is great as well does everything to make sure the food is great. A+ place. read more

Idle Hour Eatery & Spirits - Better than it looks. - American Near Me - Quincy, Washington

The Columbia Basin doesn't have much in terms of "trendy" restaurants. I was looking for an alternative to the usuals in Moses Lake and was pleasantly surprised to find this! The steaks are really good for the price. It's so reasonable there isn't a reason NOT to get them. And burgers less than $10? Um, yes. Their beer selection was pretty good, though I hope they start stocking more IPAs. The place itself is pretty nice. The bar area looks like someone paid attention to it and they to updated the dining room. Hey, for what you find in Quincy, they did an awesome job. read more

We went here for lunch 4/28/21. This is the 2nd time we've visited this establishment & again had a great experience. Our server (I wish I remembered her name) was very attentive and pleasant. We ordered 2 appetizers, chicken wings and clams. They were both cooked to perfection, but the clams were phenomenal. The breading was nicely seasoned without being overly salty and the clams were tender. Very delish! I wish we lived closer to come here more often. Good beer selection! read more

FU** YEA...this place is where you go to eat food that's good. I ordered cheese sticks, AMAZING. Made in house, larger than usual, Panko loved crust. Also got the burger, PHUCKING PHENOMENAL. Hand parties and flat-top seated. Relish was layered, so I removed a smidgen. I'll be back. A lot. I got the blueberry pie to go...we had a good laugh about it with our bearded waiter. Cool dude. 6 thumbs at our table, six thumbs up. read more

The food is excellent but I have to say the wait is horrendous!! To negate this at Lunch I decided to call in the order. Herein lies the underlying problem... The owner doesn't want data center workers to Pre order and sit there and eat because his other customers wonder why we got our food before them. So the owner expects us to take the TO GO food and eat elsewhere!! Ttl BS. I have NEVER heard or someone asking this of someone. In a nutshell great food , extremely poor customer service. read more

Such a great stop in Quincy. Great drinks and great food. Actually stopped in twice during our stay. Sara was great behind the bar.

Fun! "The Shed Room Challenge Burger" at the Idle Hour Cafe in Quincy, WA puts a whole new spin on the wall of shame or fame... The challenge? - 2 Pound patty made of ground chuck - Topped with 5 slices of american cheese - 5 Tomato slices - 4 Slices of bacon - 10 Pickle chips - Dressed with mayo, lettuce and onions - Served with 2 lbs of french fries - You have one hour to eat everything on your plate... no team participation allowed! If you do it? Your burger is FREE and your name goes on their hall of fame! - If you fail? You receive a bill for your $29 burger and your name goes on their wall of shame - known as the wall of "losers"! Anyone feeling, really, really hungry! Well, our breakfast came, we ate it and now I am ready to comment as I pick over the remains of my daughter's Hunter's Pancake and Cream (their version of a smiley face pancake). Food is served on country rose oval platters with matching coffee cups. Cute pine top tables and plenty of knotty pine panelling create a terrific setting. I ordered the corn beef hash and eggs with a country biscuit. Very good. Amazing light hash browns - large serving but I could eat it all. The biscuits were not as large as I expected, but what wasn't there in height was more than made up for in texture and flavor - perfect with the marmalade and butter. My daughter's Hunter Pancakes and Cream came with large sausage links and they easily could have split the dish - maybe with side a sausage added. But the pancake rocked old school style. My wife had the Country Benedict - excellent also. If you are looking for top-notch, country comfort cooking or a great place or a beautiful home-time bar to watch a game at - this is your place in Quincy! Thanks, Gene "Rosy: & Rhonda Roseberger - you own a great little cafe! read more

Last few times horrible service. Sat at the bar tonight and it was like I did not exist. Even when I wanted to pay it it took a long time. Servers never acknowledged my empty beer glass for a second beer. So I ate my meal with no beverage. I noticed others around at the bar not being served. There appeared to be 3 servers. A birthday party was taking place and someone in the party was clearing empty plates away. The place was about 60 full at around 6 PM. I try to spend local not sure if and when I will give another chance. read more

I ordered takeout, the staff was very friendly! The food however to me seemed overly blah and my burger had no flavor. Decent restaurant place tho. read more
