Perfect stop between Chicago and Peoria to meet a friend. Superb host, lovely people, cosy atmosphere and great food. 100% recommend for all that’s best about the MidWest. Thanks so much!
Stopped in on a bar crawl. Neat small country bar. Jackie & Roma we’re friendly.
It's awesome the workers were nice and they gave me a Christmas Cookie Thank you lost - ant Cafe. They said they have the best chicken around -well it's a small town but- guaranteed it's good. Love you lost ant cafe We will go here next time ⌚ ~5 stars~
A real bad where locals mix with travelers trading stories and making friends. I was passing through on business, but my local biker friends recommended the place. I pull up to find a horse hitched out back. Turns out the horse's owner has passed thru here 18 years ago and remembered the place after all those years. The owner and staff are incredibly friendly, the food is good, and the prices are cheap. You can't beat the atmosphere. This is the kind of place that trendy bars wishes they were. A unique hole in the wall that won't disappoint you, stop by Dave's Lost-ant and create your own stories.
People very friendly. Owner spent long time with us on a question I asked about a display. My half pound burger was huge and juicy. Comes with chips. If you want fries, it's extra. People that come in say hi for the most part. Small town charm.
Awesome old rocket cooler. Great food and cold beer.
Typical local small-town bar. I had a cheeseburger and fries and it was delicious. I am not an alcohol drinker so I can't attest for that aspect. My diet Coke was good but you can tell when a can of soda has been left in the heat and then put in the fridge, it changes the flavor. This was the case here. I would still go back no problem though.
Best fish in our area as well as all of their food! It's a small bar and everyone greets you when you walk in.
