Alongside of the friendly greetings and smiling faces, you know you're in a place that loves to service the public. Our daughter loves the location and is the biggest fan of their chocolate cherry ice cream. Hold onto your hats when your in here because they had 26 different varieties of ice cream made locally for this shop. The husband and I went for the lemon cake batter and peanut butter flavors. What really intrigued me was the mint cheesecake that was a special today. Wow! So creamy, refreshing and left us wanting more. Excellent preparation on a classic! We finished up our to-go order with an order of the spicy street corn. Having traveled a great deal and had the opportunity to try this street dish in many places, I have to say... this street corn is up there on the list! Sweet, juicy, spicy and creamy... definitely a true art form out on the plate. Even though the ice creams are consistent weekly, they have a very nice spread of menu options that changes throughout the week and month. Sorry.. you can't have them... this place is ours now! But... if you find yourself in Lebanon and you want amazing food at a great price that is served with love and smiles, go ahead and walk through that door.

Quaint little coffee shop that also happens to be part of the Southern IL coffee trail, which is…read morehow I found out about it. In checking out their FB page, I saw them mention a gingerbread latte, so I made the drive. When I got there, they didn't have their holiday menu out yet, but the staff was happy to make my GBL anyway, so that was much appreciated. For people like me who prefer to make their coffee more like a dessert, they have lots of different flavored lattes on their menu. I also had a breakfast burrito, which was fine. If you're not familiar with the area, your GPS will probably lie to you about the location. It's right next to the visitors center, with a good sized parking lot. Not a bad coffee option if you happen to be in the area.

Great building and outdoor area. Arrived 30 minutes early and had to wait to be seated, which was…read moreunderstandable, but when we went into the dinning room there were seven empty tables? Service was a little slow and slow during dinner. We asked for bread, two large plates were brought out, removed before bread arrived? No bread until the meal was served, had to ask for butter. Dinner was OK, fish was a little dry and the ver blanc sauce was without taste, tenderloin was a little overcooked (Not Much) blackberry sauce was bland. Surprised with the check when there was a $5.00 charge for bread! Not a bad meal, but less than expected, would try again.

This was our second time coming here, we were celebrating our 10th anniversary…read more We love the beautiful building and bar area, and think it's very pretty inside. The acoustics make it kinda hard to hear what the person across from you is saying, and the wooden chairs are not comfortable at all. Our server was a very bubbly young lady named Emma, who did a great job taking care of us. I had two glasses of wine and we ordered the brussel sprouts appetizer, a house salad each, and we both had the filet entree. I loved it all, but my husband thought there was too much sauce on the sprouts and wasn't crazy about the salad. He loved the entree though. We got the tiramisu for dessert, and took it home with us. The portions are big, so we had some sprouts and I had some steak leftover. I'm looking forward to having it for dinner again tonight!! We will definitely be back. I love that it's in town, and the food is delicious. It's pricey but worth it, especially when you're celebrating something.

Their ordering system is still just pen and paper, not a dealbreaker, but it caused real issues. Both items I ordered were handed off to other customers before I even reached the window. When we flagged it, they eventually gave us our ice cream... minus some of the toppings (we paid extra for btw). It's especially disappointing because this is my fav hometown spot- a place I've always rooted for. Tonight, though, it felt like it let me down.

Our server Hailey was very bubbly and welcoming from the start. She made sure we took our time to figure out what we all wanted. Took my dad out for early father's day lunch. We all got sweet tea. Husband went with the all you can eat chicken option. Which they do that on Wednesdays and Sundays. You can mix/match dark or white meat. You get all the sides. Dumplings, mashed potatoes, greenbeans, corn, coleslaw, and apple sauce. He was full and definitely enjoyed the chicken. My dad did the chicken meal 2 dinner with 2 sides. I have food left over for later. I was so full. Food came out in timely manner. And for what we paid in total with 3 people wasnt too shabby. Theor parking lot is off to the side and wraps around l. They do have aome street side parking. Or some park across the way in a lot. Good ol days Is a staple in new baden. When you're burnt out on going to chains like cracker barrel. You forget about the small mom and pop restaurants. You like hometown vibes and southern food. Come check them out. I mean their slogan does say ' good so good you'd think we stole your grandma!!"

My hubs & I stopped in with my parents for a pre-departure treat, before we headed to the airport…read more We all went simple - 2 with icecream twist cones & 2 with a scoop of chocolate and a scoop of vanilla custard. Frankly, I liked the plain ole vanilla. The ice cream melted incredibly quickly, while the custard held it's own. The total for 4 cones was just shy of $18, after military discount of 10%. There is plenty of seating and a couple of photo op spots on the covered patio. The menu is just a mounted sheet of paper behind acrylic, which makes it hard for multiple people to view. You'll want to preview online to be ready or there can be quite the wait as each person looks 1 at a time, at the ordering window. I think a larger menu or having extra copies out to view away from the window would be beneficial. The exit is also awkward, while the entrance & parking are a-ok. All in all, a solid way to wrap up time with family at a much-loved local spot!
