I'd heard about this place from coworkers, but it is well out of my way so I never quite made it…read morehere. The other day I had extra time, so I came over. It is a little dive bar in a little town, and I mean that in a good way. Hard to even tell if it is open; not much in the way of signage or lights. But the locals know, and if you're a visitor like me, hey, you came all this way, might as well get out of your car and try the door. I came in the early afternoon, and there were a few customers but it wasn't busy. Inside it is fairly dark, and small, with a big bar and a few tables, plus a stage. Lots of neon lights. Decent menu of the usual bar food, plus Chinese food. Wings, burgers, subs, salads, fried apps, etc., but also fried dumplings, egg rolls, crab Rangoon, stir-fries, and sesame chicken. I wanted to try many things, but stuck with two: fried dumplings, and wings. The dumplings were quickly fried, decent little pockets, with teriyaki sauce. The wings were small but very meaty, and crispy yet with lots of sauce. Not enough to drip off or overwhelm things. I got the spicy bourbon BBQ, which has a touch of heat and tons of flavor. Very, very good wings, worth a detour. Good service, good prices, big portions. Canned drinks. Cash only, so plan ahead. Not really a family place, despite the Leinenkugel "family bucket night" signs, but you could bring the kids during the day. Good as a dive bar, good as a small town restaurant, and good wings. I'll find a way to get back out here.

Food was pretty good but not anything to get excited about. Server was very nice but food was slow and we were the only ones in the place.

So if you are passing through and have some time to kill, food decent, and they are friendly and have beer and pool tables. So, go for those things.

Portions are large and the prices are extremely reasonable. Wings were nice & crispy with the bbq sauce being on the sweeter side. My husband said his burger was flavorful - it was a burger topped with pulled pork, & onion rings. My burger was good & juicy. I have a personal preference of extreme garlic flavor in a garlic aioli. Every sandwich is served with hand cut fries that are yummmmy. Our daughter ate nearly all her lunch (which never happens). We will definitely return & if you're in to hole in the wall restaurants I say go give them a try yourself! The owner is really trying to get his business established and running!

Pray to the waitresses sales pitch for the pour your own tap gimmick for beers. They need to warn you ahead of time that the beers or are $10-$12 each for us 12 ounce glass of beer. You pay by the ounce maybe some of the other choices were even higher than one dollar per ounce. Ended up having three beers that cost $30 My total for a simple meal plus beers plus tax plus tip was $59 just for me myself For just simple bar, food and a couple beers. That's a little extreme in my book. I am from out of town and will unlikely never be back ever. I just wanted to warn anyone else.

Once they were ready to seat us the girl asked "will you be leaving by 630?" Considering it was almost 5 pm my response was "I guess it depends on how quickly the kitchen and staff move..." The food was decent. Not great, but not terrible. My husband said their wings were actually really good. Our kiddo got a burger and said it was average. I ordered their "nachos" which are just potato chips with toppings. They were just okay. Considering this place has been open for years and we just went last weekend, I don't think we'd return on the simple fact they're charging nearly $4 for a soda and we felt like the food portions were small for the price. It's not our vibe as we aren't frequenters of sports bars or drinking.

Well, my bad - their website includes multiple accessible places to park in and around the village. That said, we got it, and decided to belly up to the bar for a better look at the offerings and the place in general. Matt O was our server. I started with a delicious Scottish Ale, and my companion had a glass of wine. Prices are reasonable. My companion ordered and raved about the Shepherd's Pie. I had Bangers & Mash - sausage (3 pieces) with imported horseradish mustard, mashed potatoes, gravy, delicious baked beans. It went perfectly with my pint! It was a warm afternoon so the glass garage doors were opened wide and folks were eating and drinking outside in the beer garden too. The vibe was loud, lively and very positive. Music was old school British Invasion '60s style. Good times seemed to be had by everyone. We finished with a locally produced Chocolate Rum Cake - it was rum forward and smooth, dark chocolatey! Highly recommended.

My family and I recently visited The Last Queen, and overall, there was a lot to appreciate. The…read morerestaurant does an excellent job creating an authentic British pub experience. The atmosphere was charming, the décor was exactly what we were hoping for, and the menu felt genuinely true to British cuisine rather than a themed interpretation. Unfortunately, our visit took place on a colder day, and the large garage-style door connecting to the outdoor seating area was left open. As a result, the entire restaurant felt quite cold throughout our meal. Since we were dining with our infant son, this made it difficult to fully enjoy the experience and was our biggest disappointment of the evening. In fact, it was cold enough that we kept our coats on throughout dinner, which made it hard to relax and enjoy the atmosphere the restaurant had worked so hard to create. We also ordered the fish and chips. The quality of the fish was very good, and it was clearly prepared with care. However, the portion size left something to be desired. The meal included only one medium-sized piece of fish, which felt small for a dinner entrée, especially considering the price point. While the food itself was enjoyable, we were hoping for a more substantial serving. Despite these issues, The Last Queen delivered on atmosphere, authenticity, and food quality. I would be willing to give it another try, particularly during warmer weather, as I believe the temperature and comfort level had a significant impact on our overall experience.

The food left much to be desired. Our table of 7 ordered a variety of dishes such as the Rise and Shine, Country Breakfast Skillet, a pancake, and breakfast sandwich. The grits were watery with zero salt or butter. We tried to doctor them up by adding lots of salt and butter but it was useless The eggs had no salt or pepper although they do a nice job of cooking over easy eggs which some places fail at. Homefries, which were really hasbrowns, were mushy and bland. The pancake was dry. The bacon and toast were good.

Farm-Fresh Flavor with a Side of Small-Town Charm - Breakfast at The Farmer's Daughter in Urbana,…read moreOhio If you ever find yourself cruising through Urbana, Ohio with a hunger that only a hearty, home-cooked breakfast can satisfy, do yourself a favor and stop at The Farmer's Daughter. It's the kind of place where the biscuits are fluffy, the coffee's always hot, and the welcome is as warm as the griddle. This morning, we popped in for breakfast, and from the moment we stepped through the door, we knew we were in good hands. That feeling was confirmed when Holly, our waitress, greeted us with a smile and the kind of friendly service that makes you feel like a regular--even if it's your first visit. I went all-in with The Hog Log, and let me tell you, this is not your average breakfast burrito. It's a hearty wrap filled with sausage, bacon, ham, scrambled eggs, and cheese, all rolled in a soft flour tortilla and smothered in rich, homemade sausage gravy. Every bite had that perfect balance of smoky, creamy, and savory flavors--and the gravy? Next-level delicious. My wife ordered Uncle Dave's Favorite Breakfast, which comes with your choice of pancakes or French toast, eggs done your way, a breakfast meat, and toast. She chose pancakes, bacon (crispy but not burnt), whole wheat toast, and eggs over medium. The pancakes were fluffy and golden, the bacon had that perfect crisp, and the eggs were cooked just right--firm whites with warm, runny yolks. It was classic comfort on a plate. The décor is classic country diner meets local charm--think rustic wood accents, sweet signs on the wall, and the kind of vibe that makes you want to slow down and savor the morning. Whether you're a local or just passing through Champaign County, The Farmer's Daughter is worth the stop. The portions are generous, the food is fresh, and the service--especially from folks like Holly--makes the experience even better. So go ahead, order the Hog Log. Or Uncle Dave's. Or both. You'll thank me later. Sorry my camera wasn't working so no pictures Take the Trip, your Next Adventure is waiting. #TakeTheTripByBrian

Everything in the building was very clean and organized, I saw no spills or dirty tables at all. There is only one 2-seat table inside along with some benches lining the sides. This is very understandable due to the limited space. However, there are a few picnic tables outside that were also extremely clean and tidy. Would definitely come back!

This super cute little diner is family-owned and operated, and from the moment we walked in, we felt right at home. We had the pleasure of meeting Tania and her granddaughter Maddy, who were both incredibly friendly and genuinely excited that we stopped by. The diner is absolutely oozing with personality. It feels like you're visiting family... if family charged you for a great hamburger! I ordered the Body Bearded Burger, a smash burger topped with your choice of cheese, crispy bacon, peanut butter, and the option to add jelly for just 99 cents. They offer grape or strawberry jelly, and of course I had to try it. All burgers come with fresh-cut fries, though you can upgrade to onion rings for a small additional charge. The burger was outstanding. Cooked perfectly on the griddle and served on a nicely toasted bun, every bite was packed with flavor. The peanut butter added a rich, nutty taste, the bacon brought a salty crunch, and the jelly added just the right touch of sweetness. It sounds like an unusual combination, but trust me--it works incredibly well. The fresh-cut fries were a great side, and the whole meal felt like classic diner comfort food done right. If you're anywhere near Bellefontaine, do yourself a favor and stop by Don's Downtown Diner. Great food, great people, and the kind of hometown atmosphere that's becoming harder and harder to find.
