We also order some food to go and a buffet to go. We had 2 buffets in house. The strawberries were bomb! The mash taters and gray was yummy! The chicken noddles was so tasty (homemade too) loved the beef! Biscuits were on key. Will definitely be coming here again next time we blow on threw.

Ok. I have been to a few buffets and you have a lot of kinda warm food and not too cold stuff. Well…read morethe Country Farmhouse gets it right!! The hot items were hot. Not warm. But hot !! A couple kinds of French toast. Scrambled eggs, biscuits and gravy, country fried steak, bacon,ham, corned beef hash, lots of potato casseroles, waffles, two kids of French toast...it just goes on and on. And then you have a full salad area with fresh fruit !! Oh and did I mention an entire buffet of pastries? Donuts, cinnamon rolls, danishes, muffins. It just kept going !!! Everything was fresh and replenished and delicious. The only thing I'd pass on was the Bloody Mary bar. Not a lot of stuffs. Cold chicken nuggets, bacon, green olives, some sad pickle spears, lemon wedges, celery, kielbasa, that was pretty much it. Would Have like to have seen cheese cubes or maybe some shrimp. But it was not bad, just nothing to write home about. All in all for 20.00 a person for food (I don't remember what the bloody bar was) it was a good deal. And they do it daily, not just on the weekends!!!

What a great local find! My friend and I had planned to come to Letty Mae's tea room while in…read moreMorris but it was unexpectedly closed that day so we needed to pivot. Weits awaited us! We liked that the menu had regular and mini sized options; the mini Colonel Sanders (fried chicken tenders with mashed potatoes and peppered chicken gravy) was plenty for lunch and delicious! Staff was hustling because this place filled up fast! Obviously a favorite in Morris.

Our large group of 3 families enjoyed breakfast here and the lovely staff were very accommodating to our chaos. 3 grandparents, 4 parents and 4 toddlers to order, eat and we all enjoyed ourselves. We all loved the treats, the food, and best coffee we could find in the starved rock area! I got for the 4 I was in charge of: 2 hot vanilla latte, a kids French toast with bacon, a biscuit and gravy, cream horn, cinnamon roll, and more treats I can't recall now. Highly recommend this cute little stop and if we are in the area again we'd definitely stop by!

What a shame. Drove by there today. Had some great memories. They closed and reopened as a Black…read moreBear diner. R place was legendary with their Hubcap -Porkchops , and massive pancakes, my favorite was the R place challenge- a burger which was about 3 lbs of meat, 1lb of condiments, and 1lb bun which was fresh baked daily on site. A few people conquered it, but not I. A friend & I went and split it once, and we couldn't finish. The server drops it off, and glanced at my buddy who had a funny look on his face.... And says: whats wrong sir? My pal deadpans and looks at this Massive burger which is about spilling over a full size dinner plate and says : Looks kinda skimpy, dont ya think?? The waitress and I roared with laughter. The burger was fabulous, fresh condiments, great bun, and meat was tops! Ahhh those were the days... They've fallen on hard times and closed. Shame. Good luck to Black Bear. I dont know anything about them but will try to stop in one day soon.

Many of the options I've tried seemed like the food was made from frozen or were left o er from the day before. I had a Rueben sandwich and the meat was chewy and the bread was very dry. Again, the breakfast option's are very good.

The food was incredible! I tried every single item on the buffet and loved all of it. And the staff... just wonderful. The ladies were so welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind, which made us and our guests feel so comfortable and cared for the entire time. We are so grateful for such a lovely experience and will absolutely be back. But next time we'll be back to enjoy a peaceful brunch without also hosting 25 people Highly, highly recommend!

How did I live in Chicagoland for so long and never know about this gem? Seems like I'm not the…read moreonly using the word gem to describe this place! I was back in town visiting for a wedding and my host recommended G&S for brunch. They are only open eight hours a week and the only time we could get one of their few tables was 9 am sharp. We arrived on time and were the second table seated in a dining room that only contained eight tables. Great music, with classic rock and country played at a moderate level. Servers were all super nice and engaging. I could tell this was a place where the regulars come often and the staff knows them well. I got my OJ and my friend got her coffee. Juice tasted pretty fresh, but I admit I wish it had a little pulp. Right away we headed up to the buffet line and it was so amazing. Herb and cheese frittata, thick cut bacon, thick sausage patties, cheesy hash browns, banana bread French toast, biscuits, sausage gravy, Caprese salad, cinnamon rolls, raspberry brownies, fruit salad, almond poppyseed scones, chocolate chip cookies... Everything I tried was excellent. The bacon and sausage were so full of flavor and as I mentioned they were thick, nothing wimpy about this breakfast meat. The French toast really had that nice banana and cinnamon flavor going. Cheeses added richness to the shredded hash brown potatoes. That cinnamon roll was so flaky. I even took some the buttercream frosting on top and spooned it on the French toast bake and that only made it even more amazing. I almost felt sorry for the fruit salad of blueberries, red grapes, and honeydew! 23 dollars was a pretty solid deal, especially since it was unlimited portions. I've had a few brunch buffets, but this absolutely ranks in the top 2 or 3 I have ever had.
