My husband and I live near Chicago and take our dogs on a trip away from the fireworks every year…read morefor 4th. We stopped into Wazo's shortly after 11am wanting to get our dogs some post hike ice cream, not realizing they don't actually open until 12pm. We walked back to our truck when I'm assuming it was the owner, stopped us and asked if we wanted ice cream and he'd be happy to serve us since he was already there. The pups loved their pup cups and we got a peanut butter shake which was delicious and perfect for such a hot day. The owner was very friendly and chatted with us afterwards. If I could give 10 stars I would. Whenever we're in the area we will definitely come back

A local frozen custard shop that serves delicious varieties of concretes, sundaes, and milkshakes…read more I have been here once and had a nice experience. They are known for their Banana Cream Pie concrete. I ordered a Tropical and a Cotton Candy concretes. The order was taken at the window on the right and served at the window on the left. The flavors and the texture of the frozen custard were decent. My Tropical concrete had banana, coconut, and pecans. My son liked his Cotton Candy concrete. Both hit the spot. Wazo is a classic, neighborhood institution that's popular among the locals. I was there in a weeknight and it was busy. They are open late. The service was good and the prices are very reasonable. Check them out.

We took a look at the photo display set up in the front. We ordered at the counter and I asked for advice. The staff member offered helpful input. I ordered the healthiest most delicious porridge.

Got some good breakfast at this bakery and cafe in Carbondale. It has things for breakfast and…read morelunch to be exact. Longbranch is a long time favorite in town. Come in the morning for pancakes or come later for cupcakes and pie. The menu has lots of vegan options for those avoiding butter, eggs, and that kind of stuff. Charming interior that has a coziness about it. It's just as much of a bakery as it is a cafe, with display cases full of goodies and sweets. There's a good amount of indoor dining too. A lot come in here to pick up baked items at the counter. If dining in, have a seat. The menu is actually kind of big with tons of things. It's about $7 for a large latte. Kind of pricy, as far as coffee goes but it's good though. Has some non dairy milks. It's about $11 for the Vegan Waffles. Hearty and filling. There's also other plant based offerings such as tofu bowls at lunch. Has the best baked goods around. It's closed Mondays and Tuesdays. There's lots of things for vegans and vegetarians.

Waited to sit down to type this up. Went here to eat at around 2pm because we were going to go to…read moreMary Lou's but they close at 2. Instead decided to try the Branch Cafe even though when we ate there a year ago we had a hour wait so we hadn't been back since. Ordered two breakfast meals and coffee and soup. It was around 2:40 ish when the waitress offered to get us a dessert because of our wait. Mind you we got there a few minutes after 2 because I looked at my phone right before we pulled in to park. We ate dessert and were still waiting so we asked the waitress if our order was being cooked because if not, we were going to pay for our coffees and go elsewhere. Almost a one hour wait. The whole back room was empty so it wasn't busy. So the owner proceeds to come up and started to argue about when we got there. The waitress says things like "when you go to fine dining, you expect a wait" as if we've never been in a sit down restaurant in our life. The whole experience was horrible. My food was cold. The owner and waitress were extremely rude, combative and condescending. I don't know if the waitress forget to turn our order in or what, but it was almost right at an hour wait for some soup and few breakfast items. Will NEVER be back. Do with that what you will.

It really reminded me of the flavor of my momma's homemade doughnuts from ages ago. In recent years I didn't care for the glaze but this is a return to what I remember from the past.

What a wonderful little self-serve farm stand! I first met the owner at the Stonefort Farmers…read moreMarket. She was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and it's obvious she takes pride in what she offers! We had stopped by the farmstand earlier in the week and then again after the farmers market. Fresh baked goods are stocked every Saturday, along with farm-fresh eggs and other homemade items. So far I've tried the sourdough peanut butter cookies, the jalapeño sourdough bread and the garlic and herb sourdough bread. The cookies were fluffy, light, and absolutely delicious. Both loaves of sourdough were outstanding with great flavor and texture. The stand itself is charming, clean, well-organized, and easy to use. It's the kind of local business that's worth supporting if you're looking for homemade baked goods and fresh farm products. I'll definitely be back to see what she has available!! She offers cash payment, Venmo, and PayPal. Highly recommended!
