We came in with a group of 13 a hour before closing and they were so accommodating . Food was very good and fresh . Totally recommend if you are in the area read more

Definitely a hidden jewel on the prairie. If you're travelling I-74 between Bloomington and Champaign, IL, it is worth the stopover in LeRoy, IL for dinner at the family owned restaurant. Excellent service and fantastic food. Highly recommended! read more

So, I had high hopes after the last time I was here and they were once again dashed this past Friday night. The server was rude, the burger undercooked, and it looked sloppy. We asked for salads to go along with the burger and fries, and when they arrived they were doused in ranch dressing--there had to have been at least a 1/2 cup of dressing and I prefer less than that. If the server had asked what we wanted, and was willing to listen when I asked for things it could have been better. Boo to Jacks! read more

Needing to grab a quick dinner with our family and not wanting to do fast food, we chose Jack's as it seemed to be the only other option in the small down of LeRoy. We were happy we did-- the place was very clean, well put together, with a staff that certainly cared about the customers and were proud of their establishment. We had to wait quite a bit when we arrived, but it was Saturday night and we did need a table for 6. Once we were seated several different waiters/owners checked on us and our food came quickly, made correctly, and hot. They checked back often when they could tell we needed something, but were never obtrusive. I loved that they served breakfast all day. This place is definitely worth taking the time to sit down-- make sure to give this independent a shot! read more

For being a new dining place in Leroy I was not really impressed. We had breakfast there on a Saturday morning and the food was below average.It looked like they were lacking servers this early in the morning as well. I also felt uncomfortable with all the security cameras that were place throughout the dining room. I understand having them at the register & outside the business but I don't think that's really needed while you eat. read more

Stopped @ Jack's Cafe, based on YELP reviews. We were happy with our decision. You would have to drive a considerable distance to find a better roadside cafe. Food was great, service was quick and friendly, decor was inviting. Prices are extremely reasonable, and I recommend saving room for dessert. read more

In a town with few options for food, Jack's is a nice surprise. Great diner-style food (including breakfast all day -- our favorite!), but a nice, warm atmosphere. Everything I've had here is excellent, and we eat here a lot. My favorite is the sausage and cheese omelet, which comes with hash browns and toast... mmmm. In addition to the great food and friendly service, Jack's has really nice woodwork, a fireplace, and just overall a nicer interior that you would expect. It's right off I-74, so a great place to stop for a meal if you're traveling in between Bloomington and Champaign. read more

Good Food, Wide range of cuisine. Great service, Daily specials that I like.

Nice clean restaurant, very good coffee & pie. The reason only 4 and not 5,stars....coffee was $2.50 per cup.

I'm guessing this is where the farmers come for breakfast. Real ham fresh fruit great pancakes awesome biscuits and gravy had a great meal. Just got back from Florida and it was great to have a wonderful Midwest breakfast! read more

If you want a great weeknight chicken special or anything else on the menu try Jack's in Leroy. The place was packed. We had to wait a few minutes for an open table. I had the cod,salad, and green beans. Everything was served smoking hot and the fish was perfection! The waitress was caring and very efficient. I would go there all the time if I lived in Leroy. There was also a dessert case that looked amazing! read more

Moving the family across country from Washington state to Georgia, we were spending the night in LeRoy. The clerk at the hotel recommended Jack's for dinner. I had cheese sticks for appetizers, the farmer's omellette, and chocolate cake for dessert. The food was average, but the service was outstanding, the best I've experienced in this cross country trip. Joanne was our server, was very knowledgeable and attentive, and there is a team effort mentality that showed when several other servers came over to help her out. read more

Great location and the food is excellent. We stopped last summer also on our trip to MN. I don't remember what we had then- just that it was good and we were excited to stop again. I enjoyed the taste Reuben and chicken noodle soup, my daughter loves the fettuccine and the apple pie. Stopping for breakfast in the morning! read more

I have ate here a handful of times, ordering something different each time and have never had a bad experience. The service is relatively fast and the food is always hot/cold and fresh! Lots of locals frequent Jack's so don't feel bad if they don't know your name. Make sure to try some of their wonderful pies. If your looking for a recommendation the Jack's salad is great. Chicken, cheese, egg, tomato, cucumber and BACON! enjoy! read more

ALWAYS GET THE LEMON CAKE! It may not be home made but man oh man is it delicious! Only been here for breakfast. It's the same ole same ole eggs and bacon but when someone else cooks it it is just better :-) the french toast is great. And all the waitresses we've ever had are super friendly and always happy. read more

Great food and casual atmosphere !! Friday night fish fry is excellent . The entire staff is friendly ... Delish ! read more

I would give this more than 5 stars if i could. My mom and i were driving around Dawson Lake around supper time and decided to find a place in LeRoy to eat. My mom had heard good things about this place so we pulled in the parking lot and its always a good sign when there are many cars in the lot at a late hour. I love liver and onions so i ordered it with bacon added. The waiter said it was a popular dish. The meals come with a basket of fresh bread which adds a lot to a meal for little cost to the restaurant. The salad was large and crisp with fresh greens and veggies and my american fries and green beans were delicious. This is the way chefs should season the green beans. Eventhough canned they didnt taste it. My mom got a huge dish of chicken stir fry. We couldnt believe all the food. She said it was the best stir fry she had ever gotten at a restaurant. There was a very slight sweet sauce mixed in the dish with plenty of vegetables and an abundance of chicken. My liver was also the best ever eaten, tender and flavorfull. I will be back many times in the future!!! Great service and atmosphere and food.....what else can you ask for! read more

Jack's Cafe - Amazing - Steakhouses Near Me - Le Roy, Illinois

I LOVE Jack's!!! The food is awesome. The Owners' are GREAT people, they make you feel like part of the family every time I go in there. They owned the Village Garden in Fisher and when they moved they took with them a "family" owned "family" run restraunt. I sure do miss them here in Fisher, but I will drive the extra 20 miles just to see their Smiling faces! Never dissapointed when I go to Jack's!!! read more

Being on the road, you can never tell what exactly you are getting into when you eat somewhere you've never been. A fellow driver suggested here and we were pleasantly surprised.. The place is very clean, the service was great and the food was good with extremely satisfying portions. I ordered the grilled chicken breast really expecting a small shriveled breast like you would get in most roadside cafes and it was far from it. Juicy, large and very flavorful. The veggies were fresh everything was hot.. The chicken noodle soup seemed homemade and was done very well.. The prices were fair, I thought, until I got my food then I realized it was well worth it. I'm thankful I listened to my friend and Jack's will definitely be a stop while we are passing through again read more

Ok at best. Clean nice on the inside. Have heard of a few people getting food poisoning from here though.

Stayed at that holiday inn right by here and decided to try them out. They were crazy busy so we ordered to take out and it was really good. The soups were very tasty, the burgers, and sandwiches were very good. The service was great and price was just right. read more

We eat at Jacks often and have never had a bad meal. Their soups and Chicken are top of the line.

Good food. I had an omelet and my husband had the steak sandwich. Neither of us can say anything bad. Would definitely add this to my diners to eat at list! read more

WORST food, service and prices! My family of 6 left with 5 of the six meals! We did not get our soups or salads, the chicken strips and fries were VERY cold, and no one would eat the pancakes. We had to ask numerous times for everything, and never did receive a refill. When telling the cashier about our experience all she said was "oh". DO NOT GO HERE!!!! read more

We stop at Jack's for breakfast on the way to the Illini football games. Excellent service, great food. Highly recommend it. We have also had dinner at Jack's and just like breakfast, excellent service and great food. read more

We go to Jacks alot and its a great family place. Very good food. Nice bread baskets. Great people!

I'm not sure where these folks giving 5 stars actually ate but it was not at the Jack's Cafe in LeRoy that we ate at! We've "dined" there on 4 separate occasions so it's not like we haven't given this establishment MORE than ample opportunity to prove themselves but the lack of personality by the waitresses and the crap they pass off as food has been totally and completely consistent.....bad each and every time. Next time we pass through, we are going to the IGA and just get a package of meat and a loaf of bread and eat in the car.....it will be cheaper and better tasting I'm sure. The food was tasteless and the green beans that someone was raving about were frozen but they were boiled to a mush consistency. I ordered scrambled eggs which I thought would be hard to mess up but they too were tasteless.....like they were egg beaters or something of that ilk. On two occasions I've ordered the mushroom Swiss burger which is a normal thing I order at "chain" restaurants but both times they too were tasteless and dry and even the mushrooms and cheese tasted like nothing! I'm not sure how this is possible but it's been accomplished by Jacks more than once. If you want my opinion....just stay on the Interstate and keep driving to Bloomington or Champaign and take your chances there. read more

Jack's is one of my favorite breakfast places. The restaurant is always clean the service is prompt and friendly. Your beverage will never end up empty. They offer the typical breakfast menu.
