Woody's 50's Diner - Worst chicken dinner ever. Poor quality chicken. A few pieces of the thigh and the leg was brown. I do not recommend this meal! - New American Near Me - Le Roy, Illinois

Waited 2 hours for food while on power tour June 9th. This restaurant advertised in the power tour booklet but was totally unprepared for guests. The first waiter actually left while we were sitting there. read more

Went here for breakfast while visiting a friend in the area. Place looked a bit different than the photos a little more run down. Service was fine but nothing extraordinary. Food was average and prices were decent. Not a place I'd come again unless it was out of connivence. read more

Very wonderful experience, great food, great service. Neat classic American diner restaurant that's very worth a stop off the nearby interstate. 5/5 stars. read more

Food 4* Service 4* I ordered 2 tacos, beans, rice & chips with salsa Weird it isn't offered as a combo on the menu so it was a la carte The tacos were great! I tried the steak and beef. They were very flavorful! Chips were ok the salsa was too spicy for me.. (not the restaurant's fault) The beans and rice were ok but tasted like they were just made, not out of a can, which was refreshing Would try something else on their menu if in the area again. They have quite a selection. Note: The day I visited the floor was being mopped so it was hard to enjoy my food when it smelled heavily of pinesol The lighting inside is weird.. it was kind of dark *Also, I forgot to add that they have a ginormous parking lot, so if you don't want to park at the truck stop across the highway, you can park here at no cost. read more

Woody's 50's Diner - Two tacos, chips with salsa, beans and rice - New American Near Me - Le Roy, Illinois

Neat little 50s dinner...Got the breakfast..I was a little disappointed with such a small serving of hashbrowns...It was more like kiddie-size...eggs and bacon were ok, but the bread literally had like no butter on it...It was like dry toast...By the time I had gotten some butter, the toast was cold and the butter wouldn't spread...I had a bad server...He never came back with my hot sauce...I food really wasn't hot when I got it so it was sitting a while before I got it...I'd like to think he was a little busy but I think it was just inexperience or maybe he's not cut out to be a server...He never came back to me till I was about finished...overall OK..I'd probably still come back and hope for a better server...Still better than Denny's. read more

I asked for chopped steak well done, this is what I got. I told the waiter about it and he asked if I wanted them to throw it back on the grill or make another one.. I purely didn't want it as they didn't follow instructions the first time. The green beans were great and the loaded baked potato was an extra dollar in which I wasn't told about. The Arnold Palmer tastes like they got it from loves. Ppl were cool but it wasn't worth the price I paid. Sorry, I won't be back again read more

#18/2022 Interstate 74 Illinois between the college town and Champaign and the college town of Bloomington right smack in the middle of the state sits the farm town of Leroy Illinois. A small hard-working Blue collar town like many small farm towns in Illinois has a couple of fast food restaurants few chains and lots of mom and pop flavor. Woody's here has been for quite a few years. Think early 80s late 70s They've gone through different changes through the years here at the Old Shell truck stop. They call it a 50s diner it's got kind of neat little 50s vibe to it off and on but not really authentic fifties but then nostalgia is there it's very neat. They have a nice good size menu of choices mostly all American style food there are some Italian choices and Mexican but for the most part it's just standard Roadhouse kind of food. About a year ago they got a booze license so you can get yourself a cold one or a cocktail they do not stay open like a bar though they have hours currently of about 5: 00a to 9P. I came in here after having a decent sleep and decide to have some breakfast so I ordered up a standard old egg breakfast. Two eggs over medium hash browns sausage links sourdough toast and coffee. Waitress was quite cordial nice woman working hard though because like many places during these times no shows and having to put a little more in than what you want but it comes with the territory. They were not too busy when I was there but in the morning hours they are slammed and during the dinner hours too because it's a local staple. The food came out the eggs were fine sourdough toast was good the sausage links nice Brown yummy. The hash browns fried on the grill really nice they just weren't totally shredded they were kind of more a combination of sliced shredded but they were yummy. The bathroom is shared with the truck stop they don't have a separate bathroom in here they never did ya just walk out the door into truck stop and the can is right there. Good price just under 11 bucks for everything that bad although some people are yipping and yapping because they put a 3.5% on credit cards not by their choice but it's what the merchant charges them. This happens in a lot of places. Although I'll let you in on a little secret sometimes they'll just raise the price on the menu and say we raised it a couple of bucks and not say the reason as to why and then just absorb the credit card cost that way pretty slick huh? But here there's a sign up letting you know when you use your credit card it'll be 3.5%, so therefore on a 14-dollar bill you're looking at $0.49 oh my God people bitching moaning it's insane but that's just the way it goes if you don't like it don't use a card go to the ATM and pay cash LOL. Frankly I think it's because they don't really do the math in their head and figure out how much it really is in addition. All in all I'm giving it four stars I would be a three and a half star but they're doing a good job and I'll give them the full up not down. read more

A year ago, I would've come here everyday. The prices were great and the service even better. The last couple times I've stopped in however, prices have gone up and the food quality has declined. Their shakes used to be my favorite, but they're definitely not what they used to be. They're also having a hard time accepting anything other than cash, which is inconvenient to someone who never has it on them. Again, I used to absolutely love this place. Now, their prices are ridiculous and do not equal the quality of food you are served. Very sad to see. I hope things turn around soon. read more

Food and service was good. Lasagna was delicious. My husband got the tacos and said they were good

Don't be fooled by the ourside... the place looks worn and could use a good cleaning. However we gave woodys a try as we try to support local places when traveling. The special was $5.99 half chicken dinners which included chicken a side and soup of salad. Let's just say it hit the bill. This chicken was cooked well the mashed potatoes were tasty but the real gem was the chickens don rice soup. Very tasty indeed. Service was prompt and the food came out hot. A no frills experience with tasty bites. So ignore the need for a paint job and come in for the food! read more

Stopped here while waiting for our load to be ready. There was hardly any cars in the lot or trucks. It is connected to the store. The servers were great, answered any question I had and made sure everything was good throughout our dinner. The food was delicious and pricing was good. Its was for sure a diamond in the rough and there is a good bit of renovating going on. They have an air conditioned portable for restrooms that you go through the store and outside to get to. read more

We were on a road trip and stayed in the little town of Le Roy, IL. We stopped by woodys for dinner. It is attached to a gas station so I'd think you could call it a truck stop. There were lots of trucks aNd truckers eating there. We ended up ordering French toast and bacon. Every thing was good. They offered specials, burger menu, and breakfast menu. read more

From the outside and lack of cars in the parking lot, we were skeptical, but tired of driving and hungry, so we went in. Don't let the outside fool you. It's worth a stop. This place is exactly what it's billed to be a 50s themed diner/ truck stop. Based on the food and service, surprisingly we were one of only three customers in the place. We were waited on immediately by masked servers and given wiped clean menus. The service was fast and excellent. We were attended to multiple times during the meal. They made a fresh pot of coffee just for us. The burger and pork tenderloin sandwiches were delicious, as were the seasoned fries. The chicken soup tasted homemade. Great little find on the road trip from WI to FL. read more

Woody's diner still a great place to eat good ol' diner style meal. Been awhile since I've stopped by, had a great breakfast. Friendly folks reasonably priced. Don't pass'm up. read more

My boyfriend and I always stop here when traveling. We found it on a whim and have been back a few times. The menu is really good and has a lot of choices. The staff has always been very good. They had no diet Mt. Dew so our server went into the gas station and got him some diet dew which was very nice. read more

This was a surprising find for our family when traveling by. Very friendly, large menu and above average food for the price! If your looking for a special treat, they have a Slush Puppie machine next to the fountain drinks. Imagine that! read more

Good stop old style Diner But good food tonight was Ribeye dinner,Soup or salad , Baked Potato,vegetable.

I feel bad that I did not call ahead to let them know there would be about 25 people coming in after my dad's graveside service. However, they were quick to pull together tables. Our waitress kept all of our orders straight, which was amazing. Even though our meals were staggered (I'm sure we overwhelmed the cooks), everything was good. My pork tenderloin sandwich was tender and huge. D had a bacon topped hamburger and said it was good. For being a truck stop, Woody's is rather cute. There are life size statues of Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, Betty Boop and other iconic 50's items. Every time I turned around I had to do a double take as I kept thinking "man that guy looks like Elvis." Good place for a decent meal. read more

Wonderful homey atmosphere in a small town setting. Brittney was amazing, I'd tell you to sit in her section but it seems the whole place is hers. She's all over the place filling coffee cups even if she's not your waitress. She didn't miss a beat and it's been a while since I received a breakfast the way I ordered it. Cindy is the other gal that crossed my path, adorable and can pour a wonderful cup of coffee. Stop in you won't be disappointed and you'll leave with a happy tummy.. Keep up the great job Woody's and give those girls a raise!! read more

One of my very favorite places when I am in the area. Never had a bad meal.The staff is fast and polite. Get your order right every time I been here. Even the to go. read more

Forget items on food, over salted food, menu has incorrect prices, absolutely disgusting restrooms. Easy avoid!

I'm a truck driver and stopped in at 5:30pm to get some dinner and sat in a booth there was a man in the booth in front of me and one in the booth behind I sat there with no menu or even asked if I wanted a drink for over an half an hour even though they got drinks for the person infront of me and behind but just walked past me like I wasn't even there they didn't get me a menu or even tell me it would be a minute nothing don't waist your time or money here read more

Food and service was excellent! Just needs a little cleaning up and up-dating but don't let that stop you from coming in and getting a bite to eat bc the food was so good. We have the chicken dinner, taco salad, BLT and cheese sticks all delicious. We had someone by us get the fajitas and I wish we would have ordered that too! I hope to be back next time we travel back this way! read more

Hole in the wall diner, not much to be expected however yet still disappointed from the nauseating food. Don't go in the restrooms unless you're yaking from the food, in that case just go outside and leave. Salty food, overpriced, unpalatable, embarrassing. read more

Food and service was always good here, at least for the past 15 or 20 years I've been stopping in at this diner. Have to say that I'm very disappointed with both this time around. Food just okay and service nonexistant today. Felt like a hostage trying to pay my check. Really, it took that long! Sometimes things can go wrong, place gets extra busy, bad days happen! Most places when that happens I can forget it because at least I usually get a smile and an apology. Not even an acknowledgement here today! Wow! read more

Server got all of our orders wrong and then proceeded to argue with us about it. Food was just okay and service was terrible. This place used to be great. It has definitely gone down hill. read more

My burger wasn't the greatest, but wasn't bad. Maybe we got there close to the shift change, our waitress seemed like she had a pretty long day, or perhaps she was hungover.. either way she was non enthusiastic. Not a terrible experience, but nothing to write home about. read more

I walked in during covid and they were still serving people inside without their masks despite a mandate of no inside service. The workers at the front had absolutely no masks on. This is putting people's lives at risk. read more

Stopped here on a whim. Usual story, tired of corporate food stops. Right across the freeway from the Loves. While those jokers fight for a parking spot, over priced fuel, and an Arbys, I have a mile of parking lot, .20/gal cheaper plus cash discount, and the biggest german pork tenderloin sandwich i have ever seen outside of indiana, all served up fresh. And the staff was great too. Yep, pluggin this one in the gps. Corporate stops for corporate drivers, i suppose. Even have pie! read more
