Hashbrowns were good and crispy on the outside, scrambled eggs were fluffy and tasty. Unfortunately, the bacon was totally unremarkable. No real bacon flavor, just boring pork flavor.

It's clean and a little noisy, but on par with most breakfast spots. Service was good and friendly, but what I was most impressed by was the food came out fairly quickly and really hot. My daughter and I split the Southern Chicken Sandwich and fries. Sandwich had amazing flavor. The fries could have used some salt. My wife had a half order of biscuits and gravy with an egg, which she loved. My son had the chocolate chip pancakes, which he devoured. Prices were reasonable.

It was our first visit so we weren't sure what to expect. I now know you can expect: friendly service, reasonable prices, and good food. When you walk in the front door it is a little confusing. There is a gift shop, and the restaurant is past the gift shop; but the hostess stand is in the gift shop. You also pay your dinning bill at the gift shop counter. The gift shop got very congested, but it was not a big deal and won't impact my rating. We started with a cup of French Onion Soup. It was very good, they top it with some thin french fried onions which was a nice twist. It has been awhile since I've been in Iowa and I was craving a breaded pork tenderloin sandwich. The sandwich was good but not up to Iowa standards. I'm accustomed to a breaded pork tenderloin that is pounded nice and thin and is way bigger than the bun. This was not pounded thin. It was a thick cut of meat. But, I repeat it was good. My fries were delicious. My wife had the Classic Burger and it was excellent. She said her sweet potato fries were good (I did not try them). Service is friendly, and prices are reasonable. One word of caution: If you are on a road-trip and hoping for a quick stop (as we were) be warned it won't be quick. Everything is made from scratch, which is great, but it definitely takes longer. If you are in Davenport and looking for good food at reasonable prices you might want to stop by The Machine Shed.

I've been going to Cracker Barrels since the 1980s. This is the first terrible experience I've…read moreever had. Arriving an hour before close, we waited at the abandoned host's station for over five minutes. When the woman who would become our server (Amanda) finally meandered past, she vaguely waved at the empty tables and told us to seat ourselves, and she would get to us. This three-starred apron-wearer then told us, when we asked for a breakfast menu, that everything was already included on the back of the lunch/dinner menu; fortunately a good server heard us, and brought us the actual fuller breakfast menu. This allegedly-experienced server then didn't understand three different menu items about which we asked, brought food wrongly-prepared, didn't understand what 'over-cooked' meant, and was actively snide and put-out when we asked for biscuits/cornbread before our meal--as the franchise has been doing forever (and when we pointed this out, wondering if perhaps it was a recent change, we were flatly told that we were simply wrong). I've never before even had sub-par service at this chain, much less an actively hostile server. The food was fine-to-good, if mildly incorrect to what we ordered, and accompanied by things we **didn't** order. The restaurant and store were as expected, even if the registers were wholly unmanned alongside the empty host's station. It was nigh-empty for our whole time here, which tracks if the locals have had similar experiences. The capstone was Amanda telling us about her awfully long shift and how a boy was very sick here earlier in the day; wonderful imagery with a glass of whine for dessert--who could ask for more‽ (Don't ask for more.) This experience was sufficient to get me to redownload Yelp, log into Yelp, and write all this. I think that's noteworthy.

Several staffers made a point of pausing at our table to greet them. A homey, welcoming restaurant with what appeared to be many, many tables and booths filled with "regulars". Many servers and the hostess knew our pals and called each other by name! The breakfast menu is generally standard fare. But be prepared!! The portions are beyond generous. I wish that I had chosen to share with my spouse. (((Food waste is a thing.))) My husband ordered a low carb meal. Sausage, bacon and scrambled eggs. Zero carbs. He enjoyed every bite. Perfect I ordered the skillet with FOUR over easy eggs, fried breakfast potatoes, peppers, onions, tomatoes and diced ham. Had I better read the menu, I would have DEFINITELY shared it! But trust me. It was OUTSTANDING! Carol and Chet ordered omelets with pancakes. Seems like THE go-to for them. They were not disappointed. I observed that this gem is the place to savor good food, lots of good coffee, deep conversations and much love and laughter. I wish that WE had a similar place in Indy, MO.
