    Beer
    Christopher F.

    In one long weekend, I dined three times in this restaurant. Connected to the hotel, their service staff is kind and friendly. I had a large salad for lunch, a club sandwich for dinner with Parmesan potatoes served with a wonderful aïoli and then a few days later for a late night snack shared wings. The restaurant is in great repair and very clean. Next time I'm in the area. I will likely choose this location because of the restaurant.

    after a seven hour drive that felt like at least 13 hours, i went against my standing rule never to eat at a hotel site restaurant. part of me feels like i should continue this rule... our server was very nice, i think her name was gracen (?), i ordered a pinot noir, since i'm fancy and heart healthy that way. my lovely date had a corona. we ordered crunchy spicy cauliflower as an appetizer, in a nod to healthy eating. this was a mistake. my yummy date ordered fish and chips, with french fries and coleslaw. more on the coleslaw fiasco of 2025 later. i ordered the center cut filet mignon, which comes with two sides. i chose mashed potatoes (another mistake) and garlic green beans. gracen was still cool. as we talked about everything and nothing while sipping our drinks, we watched others around us get their food. we started wondering about the crunchy spicy cauliflower appetizer. were they growing the vegetable? where was it? gracen brought our entrees. as you can see from the accompanying picture, my mashed potatoes were served as balls. that's cool, i don't mind eating a potato ball. i do, however, mind eating a cold potato ball. steak was actually good. garlic green beans had absolutely no kick to them, so i doused them in pepper, with eternal hopes of finding taste somewhere. i must address the issue of the coleslaw - look at the picture - it was slaw mixed with LETTUCE, and served on a warm entree plate. my lovely dinner partner asked me to taste it. against my better instincts, but fortified by this time with another drink (a lovely gin filled lemonade), i ate a bite. look, some people might not mind eating warm salad mixed with coleslaw parts, but it just isn't right. here's where it gets interesting. the manager brought us the CRUNCHY spicy cauliflower, which was supposed to be an appetizer, and apologized, took it off the bill. that was cool, very nice of her. however, that appetizer was awful. it was soggy and lukewarm, with the kick of a sickly kitten. gracen did tell us (when she came back, i think she felt bad about it, but truly, we weren't upset) the cook was new. i guess that explains the cold potatoes, weird warm slaw/lettuce salad and the drenched in sadness cauliflower. all that said, we returned here the next night, simply because my butt was too lazy to fight for a spot at the iffy restaurants that surround the hotel. the second night, we ate at the bar. i have absolutely no recollection of what i ate, but i do remember dropping my fork twice, while the lovely bartender pretended he did not see it happening and simply provided me with another fork. here is a word of warning: do not drink french 75's on an empty stomach after you have been walking around in the heat for hours. and certainly don't drink TWO french 75's, followed by wine. even though the all the food wasn't fantastic, the service was great and everyone was very friendly (both nights). i probably won't go back though, since 1. i live numerous hours away, and 2. the fork thing. i still have faint residuals of laughter in my memories from nearby patrons, but am trying to tell myself that was just me, laughing at my own french 75 soaked self. we will never know. p.s. - the first night was $88.08 and i left a $20 tip, since i wanted to make sure gracen didn't feel bad about the almost absent cauliflower appetizer, scary lettuce slaw, and bizarre potato balls. i lost the receipt for the second night, but am fairly certain i should have been charged for two missing forks.

    Restaurant is in the doubletree hotel so we ate here while attending a conference. The cocktails were well made, the food was good and the waitstaff were friendly and attentive. What more can you ask? Only reason they got 4 stars was there just wasn't anything extraordinary.

    I had a spicy hot chicken salad with chunks of bleu cheese, pecans, croutons, red onions, cherry tomatoes and a delicious vinaigrette. The greens were so crisp and fresh. My first bite was heavenly and I could not stop until my husband asked for pieces of the chicken, which was crispy on the outside and moist and flavorful inside. Yummy. The service was great! Very friendly staff and accommodating. Very nice dining room. The seating was very comfortable and plenty of televisions to look at all the games. The ladies room is decorated with tiles from the floor to the ceiling,I had to stop and say wow! Nice place and I am glad we stopped in, what a treat!

    Made it back to the place and another good visit…read more - see that bacon jam sauce on the burger?....that is darn good. I'm not one to mess with my traditional burger taste. But that bacon jams sauce really works! - The corn dip we had for an appetizer - that dish was really good. Did I say really? Yeah, really good. - Chicken sandwich - If I was you...I'd skip that one. Nothing special. Dry. Just not a good menu item. To the owners if they read this: The place is too nice to have counter service to order. Both times I've been here, it is always backed up and takes a good while to order. We were the 3rd group back last night. Parties of 2, each group was. And it takes too long. To end on a positive note: the place is neat and always great to have people revitalize an old building in our town.

    Decided to check out this new, highly talked-about spot in Springfield, and it absolutely lived up…read moreto the hype. From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They took the time to share the story behind the owners' vision, which made the experience feel much more personal. Their menu recommendations were thoughtful, highlighting both customer favorites and their own go-to picks, which is always something I appreciate. Everything we ordered was excellent. The coffee had exceptional depth of flavor without being overpowering, and the quiche was perfectly prepared with a delicate, buttery texture that paired beautifully with the cranberry-orange muffin. It's clear that attention to quality and consistency is a priority here. Beyond the food, the atmosphere deserves recognition. The space is beautifully designed, with tasteful décor that feels inviting without trying too hard. Whether you're meeting friends for lunch, enjoying a coffee date, catching up over brunch, treating yourself to a quiet afternoon, or looking for a comfortable place to study or work, this café offers the kind of environment that suits just about any occasion. We'll definitely be back--next time with friends to explore more of the lunch menu. Springfield is fortunate to have such a thoughtful and well-executed addition to its local dining scene.
