Even though you can buy Kathy's products in Peoria, we made a day trip of it. We bought about 18 jars of various jellies, jams, salsas and her famous pickled beets. My favorites were the habanero salsa and jalapeño jellies. We had a good visit. She's a charming woman ... a one of a kind.

They also serve small breakfast bites, and freshly baked scones. The crustless quiche (like a giant egg bite) was good and pairs well with breakfast tea. The service inside is pleasant and quick.

So good that I forgot to take a picture until half my drink was gone…read more I stopped into Bailey's while passing through Quincy on a road trip. I love trying local coffee shops, and Bailey's didn't disappoint! I ordered a cold brew flavored with hazelnut, and the drink was delicious. Not overpoweringly sweet, and strong enough to power me through another 4 hours of driving :) Service was great and the overall vibe of the shop is small-town, local, and welcoming. Would definitely recommend!

Everyone was super nice and they were able to accommodate my allergies and even let me check a few things for the ingredients they used to make sure we were safe. It was good, but not the strongest espresso shots I've ever had. I like a little bit more depths to my coffee, but for a local joint with locally roasted coffee, I was completely happy to support them and their business venture. I would probably come back just for the vibe to go sit with a friend and chat more than anything. It was in a fun little spot on the corner in downtown Quincy. Thank you so much for the suggestion. It was delicious. I'll definitely be back next time we're visiting!

The Electric Larry is kind of their signature drink and it's cinnamony and delightful. They have a great seasonal menu also, and the S'mores is delicious.

They currently have a limited menu (we enjoyed the liege waffle and cinnamon roll) but are looking to expand with the bigger kitchen.

Not many people at the booth and the wait wasn't long. They're open from 6-7 usually posted for their summer hours. I ordered my usual a vanilla iced coffee. It was okay. But the price is a lot cheaper than Starbucks or Carter's in town. Worth a try if you want to try new coffee places and spend less money. Although they have a set up like Starbucks with mugs and such for sale in the front of the booth as well.

The woman who rang me up, Robin, was very sweet and she went out of her way to give me a fresh cranberry orange muffin.

I wish you were closer to me because I would definitely come back!
