Average food. Small menu. The TPI Skillet comes with your choice of Hashbrowns or American Fries which are large diced potatoes. I wish they were a much smaller dice. They kind of ruined the whole dish for us. Next time I would choose the hash browns. You can choose more than one meat, I chose bacon and sausage. The sausage chunks were great. My wife got the Nacho Meat (nicely seasoned ground beef) and it was great. You can't get poached eggs so I got over easy. They don't have Eggs Benedict so you can't get Hollandaise sauce so I got a side of their sausage gravy. The sausage gravy is pretty good. As for toast you can get Raisin Bread and that was nice.

#2 eggs, bacon, hash brown, and wheat toast

This is a good breakfast place to dine with your family for the price. They have the choice whether to sit in the restaurant or by the bar. They separate the two, and I was almost confused at first since they have two doors to the restaurant, one leads to the bar and the other to the restaurant. I have a big appetite, so for me with the #2 I felt like it was not enough food for me. Our waitress was very kind and brought over anything we needed or asked for. I still enjoyed my meal even though it wasn't the best breakfast food, and I just wish I had ordered something with more food. For the price, I think it's worth coming as other breakfast places can get a little pricey. It just depends what you want: spend more money for great food or save some money for not as great food. For me, I'm the type to save money.

A SMALL order of biscuits and gravy
Randi B.

Fantastic little restaurant right off the freeway in Bloomington. Service was super fast, the prices were unbelievably cheap, and the food tasted great! For $18 (after tax) my friend and I received: One glass of orange juice Two glasses of chocolate milk (no free refills) One small order of biscuits and gravy One short stack of pancakes One breakfast special with two eggs, two pieces of toast, hash browns and three pieces of bacon One breakfast special with two eggs, two pieces of toast, and three pieces of sausage All of the food tasted great, it was all seasoned perfectly, I didn't need to add anything. The bacon was nice and crisp, the toast was toasted correctly...no complaints here! Our waitress was really nice and we were probably in and out within 30 minutes. If you're driving through town, I highly suggest stopping off and eating here!

Average breakfast food. I would rate it 3.5 star for its value and service quality, but the food itself is more than a 3 star. We came in on St. Patrick's day morning, so the room was somehow packed. The lady who served us was attentive although she was helping almost half of the house at the same time. My friend's coffee was always refilled after she took a few sips. However, the food itself was not notable. I had the #10 Country Fried Steak (2) Eggs, Hash Browns and Toast for $6.50. The hash browns were not crispy or even dry, and the steak was okay, but I didn't finish it. Although their toast deserved 5 star. My friend had the skillet, and unfortunately, it tasted just mediocre too. But the price, portion, and service were definitely worth 4 stars. I personally would not come back again for their just okay food.

Fall off the bone tender ribs
Aaron H.

My mom and i had a great supper here. The special board had many dishes to choose from. The salad bar and soup was very good and filled when needed freshened up. The chili and vegetable soup both were delicious. My mom actually said it was the best chili she had ever had in a restaurant. She ordered the full rack of bbq ribs and they were fall off the bone tender. They were EXCELLENT! I ordered the strip steak which was a special and it was grilled to a perfect medium rare. For the most part the steak was very good. A few grisly spots but the flavor made up for that. Our service was great and we will definitely be going back for the many nightly specials they have every week. I already know they have one of a kind crispy fried chicken. It was a wonderful dinner experience so don't forget to stop in and try an entrée or twenty lol.

Southwest Chicken Wrap
Erica M.

Pleasantly surprised by my experience at Times Past Inn. Stopped here for lunch with some co-workers. When I entered I truly wasn't expecting much as the building seems to be outdated and the lunch crowd was on the older side. I had the Southwest Chicken Wrap with Sweet Potato Fries and was blown away. Super delicious, much better than the wraps at other places in town. The service was friendly and it was also incredibly affordable. I highly recommend giving this place a visit. You won't regret it.

We went here for a Sunday breakfast. It was delicious. I got eggs, hasbrowns, toast, and biscuits and gravy. The biscuits and gravy was really good. Hash browns were just ok. My boyfriend got the TPI skillet and said it was absolutely delicious. We will be back.

The corned beef was incredibly tender and full of flavor. The Brussels sprouts were different--they…read morewere shredded and mixed with sauerkraut--but they were still really good, even though they weren't like any I've had before. The potatoes were also pretty solid. The flavored tea was nice, it just needed a bit of sugar. Our waitress was super friendly and made the experience even better. She was enthusiastic and enjoyed sharing her favorite menu items, which I appreciated. The ambiance was very welcoming, and I liked how open the space felt. The only downside was that the host who seated us seemed a little short when asking if we had reservations, especially when I asked if they were required.

First time and man, did not disappoint…read more Everything was amazing and it was hard to pick what to eat! Got a flight- moon jumper (smoky), black angel (a little on the burnt side), blackberry gose, pumpkin porter (spicy but not fake pumpkin flavor spicy). Beer battered asparagus for the appetizer- delicious! Crunchy which was great! Husband and I split a bacon pickle pizza (omg!!) and spicy chicken sandwich with wedges (huge, thick potato slices). Definitely recommend the pizza, so flavorful! Spicy chicken was both hot and spicy from the jalapeños and sweet from the sauce. Madysen was our server and was amazing and attentive! If it wasn't 2.5 hours away we'd be regulars! Lots of parking available.

Our late night visit to Epiphany Farms/Anju was exceptional! A huge drink menu welcome us and we…read morehad the Beyond jalapeño cornbread for a starter, which proved to be quite yummy and not hot at all. We decided to go with the rustic pizzas that were delicious and unusual: harmony, Korean, chicken and loaded supreme. The crust tasted like it was from a woodfired oven and the Korean chicken pizza was so unusual and tasty with kimchi and pickled shiitake. The fresh from the forest mushroom side dish they gave us a special treat to us was quite a delicacy. Even the farm to table items they have for sale when you walk in to take home are a treat, Especially the homemade marshmallows! Ended with dessert of a fresh orange olive oil cake with just tremendous flavor and blood orange on the side and orange marmalade on the cake. It served exquisitely with a side of homemade ice cream that was to die for. We can't wait to come back! Our waitress, Lupe, treated us like family and was incredibly personal and warm. Put this on your must visit List.

There's a lot to like about Epiphany Farms. The menu is interesting New American farm-to-table. You…read morecan get Asian cuisine, pizza, steaks, chicken, seafood. We started with the sashimi plate. The fish was fresh- including tuna, salmon, shrimp- placed over small celery bites. A variety of sauces were dotted around the plate's edge. The dish would have benefited from some ginger and more sauce. Our entrees included Pork Coppa Ramen- which was a solid dish- strong beef broth flavor and the sambal (chili sauce) -a few cents extra- added a good depth of flavor. The fish bowl- tuna, salmon- with rice, pickled veggies, and gim (Korean seaweed) was tasty. It was even tasty the next day cold out of the fridge. Our server Jack did a nice job- we sampled their roasted carrots- and they were actually our favorite bite. We also had the potato graten and they were tasty- but could have been easily skipped with our Asian dinner vibe. The restaurant has a great eclectic historical vibe and was busy on a Friday night, but still felt spacious. The drink menu is a good selection- we enjoyed wine with dinner (a solid Pinot noir). I would definitely go back to have the pizza- which looked delicious at a couple of the neighboring tables. This is a great date night venue or girls night out.

Being a Wednesday evening, it was pretty quiet. You can get anything on their menu all day long, meaning breakfast, which looks amazing, and is now the 3rd place in this central IL hamlet that I know has chilaquiles. We got 3 different taco plates to split, and went with the server's rec ... the birria beef, butter chx, and fish ... we couldn't finish the fish. It's pretty reasonable, and would have only been about $60 for 6 tacos and an order of samosas, but I had 2 beers. I digress ... Anyways, I even thought it was a restaurant the kids might like, and they like nothing!
