We went when it was on the warmer side out. I'm not sure what the place is like when it's cold out... but wow was the Smashburger good, fries were very tasty, and they got the biggest sodas you've seen in years. We even got some merch. If I'm ever back through this way, we will definitely be stopping again.

My wife and I were passing by the area and felt we had to try it. It reminded me of the old time drive in places. You pull into a spot flash your lights if needed to signal you are ready to order. Service was prompt. Menu is limited but good for a driver in. Food came out in a short period of time and it was still hot. They left the tray on the window as expected. Prices were good, portion sizes were good. I found the food quality and taste were also good. What makes this place a must try is that is a drive in. There is an awning in case it's raining. Server was friendly and equipment was clean and in good order. Place was not packed but there seemed to be quite a few cars doing the same thing we were. I enjoyed it. Overall a good experience. Would I stop there again. If I find myself passing thru the area again I would definitely stop back in.

There is no seating inside of this establishment. You stay in your vehicle to order. Depending on if you are ordering to stay and eat or to go, you can either eat in your vehicle or they do have a couple of picnic tables you can set at. Most recently, maybe a year or two ago, they added a little playground area for kiddos to play while waiting for their meal to be delivered. Most of the time, the car hops gals will bring your food out to your vehicle, on a tray that hooks on to your driver or passenger side window. The service is always excellent. The food is always amazing and the car hops whom take your order start their first job working here while they are in high schooler or on summer break. I highly recommend you try out B&K - South, once in your life, in Peru, Indiana. They're so kind, caring and deliver your order in a very timely manner. I also recommend their gallons of Root Beer. They have the absolute BEST Root Beer in town. You can buy it by the pint or gallon to take home. Its a MUST! The one and only complaint I have seen/heard from people is the parking when B&K first opens. (They are only open from Spring to the beginning of Fall.). They do get super busy when reopening for the season, but it is really not too bad to where the wait is way too long. (Also would depend on how long your lunch break is.) I would play it smart and call in to order ahead of time and pick your order up if you don't have a lot of time to wait. Once the excitement of reopening dies down, the parking gets a LOT better and service speeds up as well. I always have given B&K - Southside a 10/10. They have never disappointed!

This year I brought my LA raised bf and he loved it! Essential order is a Spanish cheese dog with a Vanilla Root Beer and a side of Cheese cubes!!! There's something truly special about pulling up, parking, and enjoying your meal in the car! B&K offers a rare, classic, laid-back experience that for me (and many others) is a cherished summer ritual. If I had the time to stay a bit longer, I would have gotten the Vanilla Root Beer served in the iconic frosted mug - highly recommend!! Our service was very friendly and super quick for pre dinner hours mid-week. They used to be cash only - but cards accepted and even Apple Pay!

I have dined in a few times since my previous review. The inside of this Burger King is modern &…read morepretty comfortable. Even though I long for the old days where trays could easily be dumped into trashcans, etc. I do like it here. Service varies. On one occasion I wasn't acknowledged at all. Other times I've received excellent and immediate service whether they were slow or busy. Sometimes food comes out fast. Sometimes it's slower but not excruciatingly so. There are times the tables, awkward trashcans, and drink station could use a little more attention being wiped down, but this restaurant is clean overall. I like the booths along the large windows. The other diners have been pleasant. It's not a rowdy or demanding crowd from my experience. There seem to be some regulars. Of all the fast food places available, I like Burger King the best. One reason why I like Burger King is that they have the Impossible Whopper. Even though it's been overdone or sloppy at times and never resembles a stock photo, it is something I can eat and veganize. Fry portions seem smaller than I remember from days of old and prices have definitely gone up quite a bit. It's about $10 for the Impossible with a medium fry and close to $12 for the large Impossible combo. There is a charge for water if you're not into consuming the fountain drinks. The regular cheeseburger patty isn't big enough to fit the bun and have also increased in price. You gotta love the signature sesame seed bun though. Despite minor flaws, this is a quiet place where I enjoy sitting once in a while even though I normally don't eat fast food. The overhead music is usually decent as well with a lot of 80s tunes.

We were confused because nowhere was that stated and she told us that it wasn't her problem and hung up the phone. She was disrespectful when it could have taken 2 minutes of her time to explain. Definitely disappointed in the service.

My last review stands but with updates. While I'd still say this has to be the best place available…read morein Peru, there are some inconsistencies. The ordering process is quirky. During the day, you order at the counter. Menus on a barrel to peruse. Nothing on the wall. You normally receive a number (not today) & your beverages & food are brought to your table. Today, I was given my coffee & water at the counter to carry, but my food was brought out. So, it's counter prepay, & you tip at that time, but it's also self serve at the condiment station while you're also being waited on table side somewhat, some of the time. Confused yet? I did dine here once during dinner hours. Since I was used to the other process, I didn't know you are seated in the evening & fully waited on. I like dinner time best though it's busier. You can get takeout anytime & sweets to go from the case or table. I believe they cater & might possibly deliver, at least for groups. There is also a section which can be reserved. I hadn't been in for a couple months, & hadn't seen my favorite lady for even longer. From chatting today, I don't think she remembered me. The man working the floor is especially great. He's a food runner & busser, etc. I was confused today, as was he, as he'd set something on my table while I was prepping my coffee at the sugar station. He asked if I'd had a bread stick or a pretzel, so I responded it was a pretzel because I had indeed ordered a pretzel stick from the menu. He ended up bringing out a full size pretzel after I sat down, & I felt badly because he thought I'd ordered that. I discovered the pretzel STICK is the same as a bread stick. He was friendly & told us to enjoy the mistake. The person with me was happy to find a device charging station. I'm not sure those are available at every table nor if WiFi is offered. The first timer liked her peach tea. You can get sweetened, unsweetened, or half n half. Cheese sauce is nacho with a lil kick. I fully appreciate that the staff will make me a fresh pot of decaf when I come in. Apparently, decaf isn't too popular around here, I'm finding. I rolled with it, but Garden Gate had Folgers in the past. The Kroger brand they used today definitely didn't taste as good. When I walked up to get a refill, I noticed it was really weak & watered down. I could see through it more than tea. Sometimes you get refills at your table. Not consistently anymore. None today. No non-dairy creamer or milk options nor raw sugar. Again, I roll with it. It's not really a coffee shop per-se. However, with "cafe" in the name... Garden Gate has surprisingly good spaghetti. Not like what I can make at home, but far better than what I expected during visits before today. I would like to see more plant based options, but I remember what town I'm in. You get used to making due with what you can get around here. No fish on the menu either nor any fried foods. Sandwiches come with chips or slaw. They do have a fired pizza oven. If you like meatloaf and mashed potatoes with green beans, this would be the perfect place for you. They have daily specials on a board. Their veggie wrap is okay. The bread/pretzel sticks are buttered & also okay. Mashed potatoes, great. Never had the green beans since may contain bacon. Garden Gate good with accommodating substitution requests. I do like the long bench in back so you can sit as you wait for carryout or to be seated in the evening. Quality furnishings & ambience although the barrels from the brewery this once housed don't exactly jive. It's nice there is a private parking lot with a side door since street parking downtown can be hairy, especially this close to the courthouse. Some outdoor seating. A lot more seating inside & much better air conditioning than the old location. Better tables and chairs which are actually comfortable unlike the old place. I don't like that they pool tips. I tip extremely well, & I would like it to go to the person I tipped. I'm also not a fan of tipping at the beginning of the visit. I'll over tip & not get stellar service afterward. Did they even see it? Now I feel like George Costanza. I have been given rather large to go cups of decaf in the past. I didn't even want to ask for one today. It's usually clean though sometimes the tables & ladies' room could use extra care. Dirty tables can pile up at times. Confusing system. Good food but not much that I want. I really just go to have somewhere in this town to sit & to KNOW it's actually decaf in my cup. Sometimes it's loud, sometimes not. Service isn't quite what it was when this location first opened. It can be hit or miss where I can feel #1 or forgotten. Service usually good but not above and beyond like 6 months ago. I'm sure I'll return because, honestly, where else am I going to go? Possibly the best in Peru, yes, but I'm adjusting stars for everything stated above. It could easily be a five with some tweaks, but I won't hold my breath.

Beef O'Brady's is the kind of place where go "I don't know what I'm in the mood for... Okay, Beef's…read moreit is." The extensive menu has the hamburgers covered superbly, does a credible fish 'n chips, has a passable Mexican/American section, good salads... basically if you can't find something that appeals to you here, you need to try harder. The beer list (from a full bar) is also more than adequate. (3 Floyds, I'm looking at you!) And I've never had a less-than-generous sample on the occasions I've asked. Also worth mentioning is the service. I've never once had a bad interaction with wait staff. Patient, knowledgeable, helpful... doesn't matter if they're slammed or dead (and Peru certainly serves up both), the wait staff is great. The whole "this is not quite a sports bar" vibe also works somehow. Lots of reasons to head to Beef's.
