Service dog or not!!! We told her it was against the law not to allow a service dog into her establishment & came back with the paperwork to prove it!!!! She must have informed the staff as they continually say us in the dark corner in the back next to the kitchen entrance. Well, needless to say we wiped our feet of that establishment & found one more respectful of military personnel with BETTER food too!!!

Restaurants aren't always open on the Fourth of July, so when my daughter and I decided to go out…read morefor breakfast, I was a little nervous we'd struggle to find a good spot. Thankfully, Maple House Café on Lincoln Highway was open--and it absolutely did not disappoint. I should note that the restaurant is bigger on the inside than it appears from the front. Very spacious, warm and inviting. The restaurant was pretty busy when we arrived, but we were seated almost immediately in a cozy spot by the window. The atmosphere was very pleasant...dining room was clean, bright, peaceful, and comfortable, with plenty of natural light that made the atmosphere very comfortable without feeling noisy or chaotic. The food was outstanding. My daughter is a picky eater, so when she RAVES about her food I know folk are doing something right. She loved the eggs so much that she cleaned her plate, and she also really enjoyed the house-made sausage patties. She was okay with her pancake but kept reaching over to steal bites of my cream cheese-stuffed French toast topped with fresh fruit and whipped cream. It was sweet without being overly sweet, which I really appreciated. It struck a perfect balance. I ordered lightly scrambled eggs with feta, and they prepared them exactly the way I like them. I also ordered the sausage links and was surprised when three huge, perfectly seasoned links arrived on the plate. They were delicious. The portions here are incredibly generous. In fact our delightful server brought a fresh fruit waffle to our table by mistake, and told us to keep it on the house. So glad she did cuz that waffle was ...crisp on the outside, light and fluffy on the inside, and absolutely delicious. The service was excellent from beginning to end. Everyone we encountered from the hosts to our server to the staff clearing tables were all genuinely warm, friendly, and attentive. Considering they were spending part of their holiday serving others instead of being with family, their positive attitudes made an even bigger impression. My daughter was also happy about the strawberry lollipop she got on the way out, which was, for her, the perfect ending to a great breakfast. Great food, generous portions, a welcoming atmosphere, and exceptional service. Highly recommend Maple House Café and will definitely be back.

I had to remove a star because the Wi-Fi has given me trouble more than once here. Not sure what the issue is. This shop is better for reading and hanging out than it is for work or studying.

It has a pretty strange location that makes it seem out of place. Just don't judge it until you go in. The prices are pretty okay for being coffee that's local and independently owned. Basically the coffee is the main thing of course. It's got kind of a small selection but they only make the best stuff. There's the basics like the lattes and a few of the specialties too. Actually can be good to not be too complicated. It's about $5 to get a specialty coffee, which isn't that bad to be honest. Also has bags of coffee beans to go. The last time in here I got the Cinnamon Toast Crunch Latte. Like drinking cereal. They also have a few pastries. It's about $2 for a croissant. The Vegan Curved Croissant is one of these. Fluffy and still has a buttery flavor. There's also a few breakfast sandwiches. Finding it can be complicated. It's located in a building on Schoolhouse Road. There's also a pizza place in the same location so after going here you can go there.

Brunch at Cooper's Hawk in New Lenox did not disappoint!…read more The patio was absolutely fantastic on a beautiful summer morning, our waitress was amazing, and the food and drinks were perfection. Honestly, it was one of those brunches where nobody wanted to leave because the atmosphere was just that good. If you haven't tried their brunch yet, put it on your summer to-do list. Grab a spot on the patio, order a drink, enjoy some great food, and spend a few hours catching up with friends. Definitely worth the trip!

Have only had an issue once with service and it was handled to my satisfaction. I enjoy the trio medallions or the pork chop when I desire to eat more. On the lighter side, I have fallen in love with the sausage and burrata flat bread, a delicate but flavorful bite. On this occasion, I grabbed a couple of friends and we participated in the 5K Wine Run. Oh what fun! I don't want to give away any spoilers but there is good wine included with your registration. Stay for brunch afterwards, but I encourage you to make a reservation. Although, it rained during the walk/run, it was warm and still made for a nice experience. The sun came out afterwards kinda like an additional reward besides our medal.

I have recently discovered this gem and just visited for my second time. My guests that I have…read morebrought there have also been extremely pleased with the food and service. On both visits, I myself, chose to get the special which on Fathers Day was filet medallions and stuffed shrimp (excellent). This past weekend, I got the grilled medallions and lobster tail. Omg it was perfection! The atmosphere is great, the servers are polite and professional. My two complaints for this past visit would be that my martini really pretty much sucked.... super sweet, tasted like Kool-aid and no taste of booze and the red velvet cake that i ordered was, in my opionion, should have been thrown out. It actually tasted more like rasberry cake instead of red velvet but it was very stale. I took two bites and tossed the rest. However, I won't let that deter me from coming again. On both visits, the food was fantastic and we ordered a variety of apps and dinners and everything was terrific. We will definatly be coming again and will be spreading the word. Keep up the great work.

No warm fuzzies were felt as I entered into the restaurant. $5 for a small cranberry juice. Wow. I'll make sure to go to the grocery store 1st next time. Corn beef hash comes hot, but it's out from a can for sure. Asked for 2 orders of crispy bacon. I've had better. It's a little flimsy but they give your 4 slices per order to compensate. Can't complain about that. Asked for buttered toast. They obliged. A lot of restaurants don't do it. The star of the show: the hash browns. The best in the south suburbs. Real potatoes fried just right. Hot and and delicious even after a 15 minute trip. Could use some seasoning, but...whatever. Maybe I'll share that with them when I return, because I will return for those hash browns!
