    Since 1958,.. current owner since 1977.
    Tim H.

    Took the 40 mile cruise and was first in the door on day 2 of their 67th season. Cheeseburger was not as tasty as I remembered. Bun was on the cusp of being stale. They must charge extra for tartar sauce, even though it was not disclosed. There was barely any of it on my burger. Hung out in the area and stopped back for chicken for dinner. The only thing hot and fresh in my 4 piece dinner was the breast. Leg, thigh, wing and fries were barely warm and skimpy on the meat. I've never experienced that here before. I had asked for my malt to be made when I was ready to leave and was told no problem. They didn't follow my request and it was served with the meal. The magic was not there today. Didn't notice anyone wiping down the tables either. I'm sure they will find their grove.

    Love the nostalgia!!!

    Can't say enough amazing things about this gem! Chicken is the BEST and I mean BEST ever!!! It's piping hot and juicy every single time! The restaurant itself is a step back into days of simpler times; dining inside and out - the wave of nostalgia is amazing! Built in 1958 it is a local icon that is a must visit! Service is spectacular! You are always greeted with a smile and happiness even with them running around to make sure every customer is treated with quickness and respect! One of the owners is always present and not just taking care of their customers and the food they cook/serve but also their employees which seems to be local teens! They speak with kindness and you hear lots of laughs too! Do these folks a favor - stop on by, pick up lunch/dinner and TIP them generously as you know it's going to help their staff save for their futures and help their families!!! You will not be disappointed!!!

    The food was soooo good! Was my first time trying it and it was delicious. Didn't finish all my food so I ended up with leftovers and they were just as good later that day. Definitely worth the visit! Place was also very clean, I noticed they cleaned the tables after people left, they even cleaned tables that were unused.

    This is one of those classic, hometown, seasonal places that makes wonderful food in a charming environment. There is a walk up window out front and dining inside and out. During COVID, the staff wore masks in accordance with the mandates in Illinois. This place cooks to order, so be prepared for a bit of a wait at times if you don't phone ahead. I noticed a number of customers picking up orders previously phoned in. Also VERY important, they only accept CASH. No credit cards, debit cards, checks, etc. I decided to order from the counter inside and wait patiently for my food. I ordered the two chicken leg special with coleslaw and fries. Since everything is cooked to order, the chicken and fries arrived hot. The chicken is broasted, juicy, and absolutely delicious. Took about 15 minutes for my food to be ready. While the chicken was excellent, the real star of the show for me was the coleslaw. It's a vinegar based recipe that's perfectly tart and sweet at the same time somehow. After I finished eating it, I used the roll that came with my meal to soak up the rest of the vinegar sauce in the coleslaw cup. Awesome! I drove about half an hour to get here, and it was so worth it. Looking forward to them reopening in the spring!

    Good Ole Chick N Dip. This local joint is a staple in the town of Hampshire, IL. Located on State St. This establishment has been around 70 years!!! Wow!!! Prices are great! If you are in the area and looking for something different or unique...come here! The chicken is even better. Known for their "broasted" chicken, this place offers ice cream, fries, onion rings, burgers, hot dogs, and more. There is something for everyone!!! I've ate at many places like this when I lived in the south so I was happy to find this place when we moved up here to IL. You order at the window or inside and can eat inside in the small dining area, or outside at the tables, or inside your car or they offer takeout/call ahead! This is my second time I've been here. The staff is friendly, the inside dining area was clean, the restrooms were clean, and our food came out correct as ordered and HOT! Their fries are like shoestring fries. They have cheese fries too, yum! I will be back Chick N Dip. CA$H ONLY!

    Two piece snack. Some fries were eaten before the picture was taken!

    This place needs to be on Diners Drive-ins and Dives! The fried chicken is the stuff of legend. Absolutely succulent - the perfect recipe.

    Double R Dogs - Southwest Grilled Chicken Wrap $14 w/side of fries

    Double R Dogs

    Cute space! Local residents opening a local shop after success with their double R bbq food truck…read more I know this family gives back to the Hampshire/Pingree community; for example donating hot dogs to the Whips between a recent double header. There are maybe 20 seats if you want to dine in, including a row facing the downtown drag of Hampshire. This is my second time here. First time I just got tenders. They were fine. Not my son's favorite, but I'm sure fine for most kids. Today was a much better order. Today I got the Southwest chicken wrap. Half tonight for dinner and half tomorrow for lunch, it's a healthy portion. The Southwest dressing is amazing, decent spice level; between mild and medium. The chicken was sooooo good! Grilled, tender, not overly seasoned, excellent! The tortilla chips in the wrap are so crunchy. Loved them. There was also black beans, onion, lettuce and tomato. Also corn, did not love, felt canned, but overall excellent order! My son got a hot dog! Excellent dog for $4. Great snap, beef dog with excellent flavor and a steamed poppy seed bun. Lastly are the fries that came with the wrap. Nice portion size. Not the nicest flavor. A bit dry nor salty enough. They are fresh cut, and look like they could rival Beef Shack, but not yet. I would swap the side if I had a choice. That said, the wrap is great, and I will go back to try other ones as well!

    We stopped in last night after our grand daughters concert at the local school in Hampshire IL…read more The set up is appealing a window bar with chairs allows for folks to take a seat and look out to the downtown. In addition there are several tables that seat 4 Your ho to the counter to order your food/ drink and then the staff will bring it out to you The line was long and it was quick ( a good sign these guys know the drill) I ordered the pulled pork sandwich which was delicious and fresh loved the sauce just enough twang ! Coleslaw seemed a bit off Fries hot and delicious We gathered at the window bar and enjoyed our dinner No alcohol is served just fountain drinks coke products Will be back !
