    Bad service, bad staff. Dont even. The staff was very disrespectful towards the end of the night. They clearly do not value service or experience of their customers.

    My coffee!
    Marietta M.

    Had a great breakfast and visit with owner, Rick Frey this morning! We loved this place! It is super clean and comfortable. We even got to catch part of the Olympics this morning while we ate. Definitely planning a return visit to watch a St Louis Cardinals game and get dinner!!

    The special was a turkey wrap. The soup is French onion.

    I wish I'd taken a picture. Tuesdays are usually Taco Tuesdays with incredible pork and chorizo tacos and Baja chicken enchilada soup. But tonight is Fat Tuesday so they offered Gumbo. Wow! We've enjoyed lots of gumbo in Louisiana which couldn't compete with this. So good. And bartender sweet Colleen offers the BEST dessert martinis. Tonight was mint chocolate chip. Incredible! We look forward to evenings at Lottie's Cafe.

    Clearly Delicious Breakfast pizza

    The food was amazing I could tell they had made it fresh. They always made sure the drinks were full and they were very polite. The music and lighting kept the place vibrant!

    Okay, please don't let the face of this cafe turn you away. While traveling Route 66 from Chicago, we stopped overnight in East St. Louis, il. This morning we decided to find a restaurant for breakfast. Using Yelp, again, I found this cafe near the largest ketchup bottle in the world. We opened the door and found the cafe "packed." Only one table was vacant which we grabbed. A large selection of breakfast and lunch items, but wanted breakfast. Our server, Athena, recommended the "Breakfast Stromboli; see the picture. Since we wanted to share, Athena said that was the perfect breakfast. Oh my, what an unexpected breakfast !!! Plenty of food for my wife and I. Delicious favors; we added sausage, onion and green peppers for a very small charge $3.00. Sorry, I forgot to take a picture before I started eating, here's what's left.

    First timer, and now so disappointed I've been missing out on this place. In an unassuming, quiet little strip. So happy to have found this. They actually open early to get "breakfast" in but still have your mimosas and bloody Mary's. We were immediately greeted and asked for drinks. Both waitresses were teaming together to check on tables, and which I love to see. the food was all fantastic. The omelettes are huge.

    Bacon and cheese omelet with hash browns
    Courtney L.

    Love this gem of a place. It used to be more of a secret but it has gained popularity. The food is always excellent and homemade. They could use a bigger space some days due to the gain in popularity. We had breakfast this time. 4 in our party and we split two omelets. They are huge portions so be ready to eat. We love their pizzas, soup, and salads as well. Recommend if you are in the area.

    Breakfast Stromboli - eggs, sausage gravy, cheddar cheese + bacon

    Definitely a hidden gem. Did a Google search for breakfast and this came up. Drove up and I had second thoughts. The place has blacked out windows and says "gaming inside". I wasn't sure what to expect. I decided to give it a try and wasn't disappointed. I walked in to a pleasant atmosphere that was quite busy for a Tuesday morning. I was immediately greeted and waited on. I told the server how I was suspicious based on the outside looks. He said all the locals know the truth! I ordered the Breakfast Stromboli and it was really good! I wished the homemade dough had some more flavor but overall it was tasty. Nice large portion at a reasonable price. Check it out!

I like Gouda Cheese and it's not offered on a burger at many places, so I took advantage of this opportunity. Adding bacon to a burger is a no brainer, so the pairing was a winner. For a side, I went premium and enjoyed a side of house-made onion rings. OMG! These rings easily make my top three onion rings. They were huge, sliced thick, the onion still had a snap and the seasoning on the breading was super peppery, which I like. They offer a good variety of draft beers and we all know a cold beer goes well with a smash burger. My bartender was friendly and attentive. She was hustling serving the bar and tables in the bar area. She made everyone feel welcomed. When in Collinsville, I'll be sure to stop by again. They're adding pizza to the menu and I'll have to give it a try.

We will be back to see how they evolve!!

The bar itself is gorgeous and the selection of drink drinks and what they have on tap is more than I've seen anywhere else. The service is pretty much immediate, the mixed drinks are fantastic (and I am very finicky about my mixed drinks), and the food....OMG THE FOOD! I really don't like burgers, but the person I was with got a burger and it was amazing and insisted I tried it and let me tell you, it was the best freaking burger I've ever tasted my entire life! I went there a second time, on a Saturday night, and it was very busy, but service was still very quick, my mixed drink was perfect, music was great, but not too loud where you couldn't hold a conversation and they even had security! At a bar/restaurant on Main Street in Collinsville!! as a tiny little female, who happen to be there with her tiny little female family member, I felt super safe and had a great time! So if you're looking for somewhere to go eat, I suggest Sloans, (I just found out they did brunch on weekends and I can't wait to try that, plus they have a full Lent menu, so no having to search while I'm allowed to eat on a Friday right now!). And if you're looking for a place to hang out and have a good time, while still feeling safe, with good service and good drinks later on in the evening, go to Sloan's!

Geez at least tell us about it. The main bar /restaurant area is pretty cute but I thought the restroom could use some upgrades.

Onion Rings, Side of Fries and a Bulleit splash of Starry. I wasn't very hungry so didn't go for any of the sands, entrees or flatbread. Next time though.. Considering the crowd, the food didn't take too long to be delivered and the drinks came shortly afterwards. Portion size very comparable to price, but the food could have been a bit hotter. Flavor on everything was great, I enjoyed trying the different sauces. The onion Rings I wouldn't describe as crunchy but they were nicely coated. The acoustics in the space make it a bit loud, so prepare for that. They offer a patio with outside seating as well for nice days. If looking for a sit down option from the walk up and order stands, this is great for that.
