    Stopped in here during a recent trip after finding it on Yelp. The restaurant was busy but they had us seated in just 10 minutes. The atmosphere was diner like with nice assortment of nostalgic pictures . The service was great with the server keeping our coffee mugs full throughout our visit. Our food was delicious and I would come back next time I am in Springfield

    We came here for breakfast and really enjoyed it. The atmosphere is fun and the service was great. I got Jim's Platter. It was wonderful. I really enjoyed the biscuit and sausage gravy. The portions were quite large. I appreciated that they only use fresh cracked eggs and no boxed eggs. I would definitely come back again.

    Stopped in around 0845 on a Tuesday and it wasn't that busy, so we got sat right away by a very pleasant waitress. It was clean and quiet with music playing. I got the Cinnamon Roll pancakes and they were delicious. Super sweet which I expected so I ate only 4 or 5 bites before taking the rest home, which I did end up eating as dessert after dinner. My partner got biscuits and gravy. Gravy had good flavor but he said the biscuits were a little too hard. Cappuccino tasted like the gas station cappuccino, but I like that so.....

    For a Sunday service was fast. Get on the waitlist early. Food was awesome, just like grandma used to make gravy. Place was clean and not very loud. We well be back.

    This restaurant is right next door to RibCrib and across the street from Battlefield Mall. I just popped in for a small quick snack to go while doing some shopping. Big Biscuit surprised me on my first visit. I only bought 2 items, sausage and strawberry lemonade. They do not list prices on the menu at the To Go counter. 2 items were nearly $10. I had sticker shock when I heard the total and I saw the price of my lemonade. It was followed by sugar shock because the strawberry lemonade is EXTREMELY sweet. I paid a million dollars for it and had to throw it away. The sausage patties were good though. And I really like the name Big Biscuit.

    Ordered to go and received a dry burnt biscuit. I called company and worker said she did not take it and manager stated ok. Food & customer service sucks.

    Is there only sausage gravy or can they do a vegetarian no meat gravy?

This place…read moreis more of a greasy spoon diner than a typical chain restaurant, but it operates kind of like a chain, at least menu-wise. The staff were having conversations that weren't really appropriate for the patrons to hear. Our waitress didn't seem like she wanted to work or maybe she was annoyed that they seated us with her, idk. Refills took forever, so that was also frustrating. The bathroom left something to be desired- it was small and not the cleanest. The food was typical diner food, nothing to write home about. I personally don't care to go back, but my husband probably would if he was in the area. The whole place seemed a bit dirty, dingy, and in serious need of updating. Not a fan.

The burger fries looked amazing and my mom raved about them. I LOVED my roast beef. I haven't had it in a while and have never ordered it in a restaurant. I'm glad I did. The meat was nice and tender, the gravy savory and luscious. I would order it again in a heartbeat. They had lots of dessert offerings but we were too full to try any of them. The restaurant is large. It looks nice inside and has room for almost any size of group. The service was very friendly and helpful. I would definitely come back and highly recommend this place for a delicious, homestyle meal. Come check this restaurant out!

    I'm really not sure where to start with this review. It wasn't a pleasant experience at all. I saw…read morephotos of the food on Yelp and thought this might be a good dive or greasy spoon style diner to have lunch at with my husband, since I was in the area. We met there and the outside aesthetic alone should've warned us off. To start, the exterior of the building was quite worn down, the windows were dark and dirty, and the sign was broken. If it weren't for the cars parked outside and for the fact that I called ahead to ensure they were open, we would've thought they were closed for business, permanently. We enter the building lobby, for lack of a better word, and proceed into the dining room. The first step into the dining room was me stepping into a literal hole that is covered with a rubber mat. That's a definite hazard. I couldn't believe that they'd just cover it with a mat. That's really dangerous. At that point, I was really starting to rethink staying. We walk further in and there is this atrocious, sour, vomit-inducing stench that billows throughout the room. It slaps you in the face and takes your breath away, and it's covered by a very strong pine smell. Again, I'm contemplating leaving but my husband didn't want to make a scene. The place is FILTHY! And I don't mean filthy as in someone spilled food and didn't clean it up. I'm talking decades of grease, dirt, bacteria, etc. covering the floor and furniture. You could take a putty knife and chisel up layers of gunk from the floor. There was even a sign that said something like- "Wipe tables down each night- Alli". I'm paraphrasing, but that was the gist. If you have to tell your staff that.... ugh... We get to the table and I didn't even want to touch the chair to sit, let alone stay there and eat, but I didn't want to leave right after we entered the place. I was hoping (praying) the food would be worth it... The waitress comes over to take our drink order and brings the drinks back pretty quickly. The cup felt like it hadn't been washed, ever... It had a layer of grime on the outside. Say you cooked something greasy at home and let the greasy dish soak in the sink for a day, but a cup fell into the pan and soaked with it overnight. When you pick it up the next day and the grease is stuck to the side of it- that's what it felt like. I would've asked for a new cup, but I knew in my gut that the next one wouldn't be any better. It's like they run their dishes through a dishwasher that only has cold water and no hot water. Bleh. They take our food order and I'm quite literally praying that we don't get sick from eating here. Why I stayed, I have no idea. I guess I didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings. The waitresses seemed like they had their own issues and I didn't want to add to it. The food comes out and and it's time to eat. My burger was ok at first, clearly a frozen patty but I'm giving it a shot. Then I taste something off and stop eating it. My fries... I just can't even... a few of them were ok, but then I got to some that tasted like they had been fried in a deep fryer that had been used for years without being cleaned or having the grease replaced. My burger also tasted like it was cooked on a filthy grill. My husband couldn't stomach the place and only ate the things on his plate that he thought couldn't make him sick. We got the ticket, paid, and left as quickly as we could without being too obvious or rude. It's a little restaurant that is clearly struggling. This place was beyond 'dive' or 'greasy spoon' status. There's no possible way that this restaurant is safe to eat at. I honestly don't know how they ever pass the health inspection. The level of dirty here is not something that can be cleaned up the day before inspection day, just to get this dirty again between inspections. It must never, ever, be cleaned, or the inspector is blind, literally. As you can guess, we will never be eating here again and I don't recommend that you do either.

    Again third year in a row they did not disappoint food was fresh, fast service. Not bad for a…read moresmall off the beaten path home grown diner. My recommendation is to give it a try and you won't be disappointed.
