1. Titus Pastry Shoppe (Titus Bakery & Deli)
Overall Ratings
5 based on 117 reviews
Award winning and family-owned since 1980. Well known for our donuts, Titus also offers Boar's Head Brand meat and cheese sandwiches as well as soups. Titus has their own coffee brand and popcorn, and makes cookies, cakes and other fine products.

Never have I ever had a donut this good. Wow! I’m already sad we drove away without buying more than a dozen. The fluffy soft dough decompressing when I take a bite all while my tongue attacks the icing in a symphony of sweetness that’s not overbearing… wow I just can’t even describe it. Even that previous statement doesn’t do it justice, only sounds like I’m trying too hard.
That’s how good this place is. I just can’t encourage you enough. Try one of everything. They told me the “Persian” is what they’re known for but I personally liked the honey bun best. Seriously, try them all.

We had been here in the past passing through, but, this visit was an opposite experience from that time. Skillet was good. Scambled eggs were not cooked all the way....had running raw areas. Omelette also had a couple areas that the egg was still undercooked. Pancakes this visit were not even close to last time. They were too thick and not done in the center. Coffee was too weak, tasted like water with a hint of coffee. Huge disappointment and won't return.

Came through Lebanon again on trip to visit family in Chicago and wanted to eat here as my debut visit was great (as my prior review will indicate). Tried a different sandwich, The General, this time and it was really good. I plan to make FTC my go-to lunch stop for my trips to the Windy City. I love this little place.

Friends I am visiting in Indiana who grew up here said I had to try the ice cream at Ice Cream Paradise. Now I understand why the variety of flavors and homemade hand dipped ice cream was delicious the orange pineapple ice cream is fantastic, wonderful taste and little bits of fruit, their fudge cake sundae was wonderful for a chocolate lover. Prices are reasonable and a playground is there for the children.

Decided to give this place a try after passing it many times and glad we did. Pleasant greating by people working there upon entry into a simple but clean dining room. Menu is interesting mix of burgers/tenderloins, fries/onion rings, ice cream and Mexican food, nice variety. Our food was out quickly and was pretty good.

With Ice Cream Paradise in Lebanon, the DQ needs to have more specials and offer more for lunch. This DQ used to have weekly specials on different ice cream sundaes (banana splits, etc.) but they don't anymore. They also need to post on their board what the specials are for the week and they would get more business. They are skimpy on their toppings - you get more at Ice Cream Paradise.

Diner was in a very old building right downtown. Not much for ambience but the very friendly staff and the surprisingly delicious food with very reasonable prices was all worth it! Of course Indiana is known for its Pork Tenderloin Sandwiches, so we had to try one. The pork was very well flavored and the breading fried to a crisp golden brown with great spices for that true down home flavor. There was more than enough tenderloin on this sandwich but we couldn't help ourselves as we kept picking and eating chunks. The bun was also very tasty. We also had the Catfish Filets that were very large, breaded and fried, the fish was piping hot, fresh and flaky. Not at all dry. The breading was also very good and the Tartar Sauce was amazing, sweet and flavor packed. As sides for the catfish we tried onion rings and potato wedges. The onion rings were great and the potato wedges were just alright. I also would recommend a cobbler for desert. Total price was under $25. Well worth it. We came close to closing and it wasn't busy, yet the food was very hot, fresh and served pretty quickly by a very friendly server, she truly made us feel like we were family. Definitely a must try if passing through Lebanon. Enjoy.

Used to live in Lebanon but return to visit family. Love to eat here. Prefer this over the other Mexican restaurant and is better than almost all the other restaurants. Easy to get to with a large selection. Food is great and the service first class. Love the colorful decor. Can get busy on Friday and Saturday nights so get there early.
