I enjoyed the coffee. It was not bitter at all. Very smooth. Sugar nor cream were needed. The service was attentive but not obtrusive. My partner had the egg sandwich. The scrambled eggs were creamy and havarti cheese was a pleasant change up to regular American or cheddar. I thought it was a great start to our adventure.

We stopped in this little diner and were taken aback by the sheer charm of the place and people! It is a true flashback moment. The menu has a standard selection of small town diner selections and the prices are insanely inexpensive. I had the double bacon cheeseburger and cheese fries. My burger was near perfect. A simple, enjoyable meal at its best. For dessert I had a slice of pecan pie that was pretty near life changing! The pies are all homemade by the owner! I was blown away by how delicious it was. Our server was extremely attentive despite how busy the place was. All of the other customers were locals of the tiny town and surrounding areas. As we clearly looked like our of towners (and were probably 35 years younger than the average age) a lot of people came to say hi to us and told us that we had to stay for the music and dancing that they had at 6pm. We stayed to see the band start playing and most of the restaurant stood up to line dance. It was very cute to see. This was a very charming, unique experience and I am so glad we stopped here.

They did say that the salad bar was unlimited. What little or was. Yet, they required you to get a second small plate rather than just give you one large plate to get your food. Places like this should be shut down. Save your money go to mcdonald's at least there.They have eggs in a salad. When my wife informed them that we would not be back to have dinner here ever again.

We decided to check it out for breakfast. It was delicious, and we've eaten there a few times since and always have a great experience. We both have been wanting to try some of their lunch specials, but we work and can't get there to check it out. We were off today and decided to go there for lunch because they were having chicken and noodles, and that's one of my favorite meals. It did not disappoint at all. My boyfriend and I both enjoyed our meals and even ordered seconds to go, so we could have it for dinner. The chicken and noodles came with mashed potatoes, corn or green beans, and a roll. You could definitely tell the food was homemade too. Delicious! The Farmhouse Diner isn't a very big restaurant and can get pretty busy. It reminds me of a little country diner where all the local farmers and their wives go to eat breakfast and lunch. The staff is always super friendly and attentive too. We will definitely be going back.

If you make a lap through town to check it out, you may see a little place called Sgt. Rick's BBQ. I decided to try it, being a fan of little out of the way restaurants. It is a nice looking little place, not a dive. When you go on you are immediately taken by the United States Marine Corp and Trump decor. If you are a flaming progressive, you might want to turn around and leave. If you don't care what one's politics is who cooks your lunch, then take a seat. If the food is good, I don't care whether the decor is Trump or Bernie Sanders. The friendly waitress came over and took my drink order, while I looked at the menu. It is a menu that one would have to study for quite some time to learn all its nuances. I saw brisket in 3 different places each with different combinations. I saw a brisket sandwich for $7.50, not outrageous by today's standards. When he waitress came back, I said, I just want a brisket sandwich and fries. She said she could do that. After probably ten minutes, the namesake of the establishment brought my order. The sandwich was adequate, bordering on a generous portion. The fries were hot, and not a particularly generous portion. The brisket was very good. After finishing, I noticed another patron go to the counter to pay his bill, which was absent from his hand. Apparently the bill was given to the proprietor instead of the patron. That's kind of strange. Oh well. When I went to pay the bill, I said, I had Coke, Brisket and Fries. "That's $17.70, or there about. Perhaps I was a little tired, because I failed to inquire how he arrived at that number. As I thought about it later, the fries and coke would have added up to somewhere around $9. Okay, if that's the price. I guess I should have inquired when I placed the order, since I never really saw fries on the menu. But, to never see the bill, and take the total by faith, I found just a bit strange. I have never done it that way before. I like the old Ronald Reagan adage, "Trust but Verify." The old sarge surely wouldn't have a problem with that, since he had a picture of Ronald Reagan on the wall. The bottom line: The food was good. I don't like the way they do business. The prices are high. Make sure you know from the menu or the server how much it's supposed to cost.

My days of going to the Bluebird 2-3 times a week are long behind me, but as I was attending a show…read morethis weekend, I realized I have never done a Yelp review, and since it's potentially the best bar on the planet, I decided I needed to correct that oversight. During my college years, a good portion of my Bloomington memories are from the Bluebird. Fantastic bands, good friends and a somewhat aggressive number of drinks were the common theme multiple nights a week. Now that I'm OLD(er) the visits are less frequent, but when the right bands are in town and my calendar isn't slammed with adulting, I still find the Bird to be my favorite place in town. The original Bluebird was about half the size it is today. Several years ago, they bought out the restaurant next door and added a large additional space, leading to a pretty big bar/nightclub with a 'bar area' that includes a nice full bar, booths and tables, and the 'live music' portion which has a big stage, plenty of room for big crowds, and a warehouse vibe that is second to none. When you arrive, you'll start to see pictures of the amazing acts that run thru the Bluebird when they're just on the cusp of being 'huge' - from REM to Miranda Lambert to Gryffin, just about every genre is represented and it's nice to say 'I saw them with a few hundred of my friends' after you give ticketmaster your kidney to pay for their giant stadium shows. Reasonable drink prices, good people behind the bar, and the best bands currently playing the area, you can't go wrong with a night at the Bluebird. I wish I was still young and able to do multiple shows every week, but for now I'll just appreciate having it in my backyard so I can attend with the mood hits . Best bar in Bloomington. Probably anywhere.
