Food and service is always great. Love this place and it's a great addition for people with gluten allergies or intolerance. But it doesn't even matter, you don't miss the gluten and I would venture to say things taste better without the gluten!

I've never written a review on a Subway, but wanted to say how clean they keep this location. I've never seen any place where they were cleaning so many things - the pop dispenser, the handles on everything, whatever there was, they were cleaning it. It gives you a comfortable feeling knowing that they are probably taking as much care with the food also.

Apple Family Restaurant

Reviewed By Starfish1053

We went there for dinner and I have to say we've had better dining experiences here. They changed their chicken rice soup, which was one of my favorites on Sunday evenings. I did not enjoy this change at all. I wish they would go back to making it the way they did.The sandwich was okay. Not great, but okay. I will say that the service was good, as it usually is.

Very friendly staff! You can eat inside or outside. I had a pulled pork sandwich with sweet potato waffle fries, and taffy apple salad. Very tasty choices for appetizers and sides. Tempting daily specials available. My server came around several times to check that everything was satisfactory.

Reviewed By NEVenturer

Culver’s is always good. I drove through the take out window. I will never understand why they give you cold drinks on a hot day, then you wait, allowing cold drinks to get warm, for the warm food to be brought out to you. Particularly shakes and milk. Again, the food is always good.

Alexander Park Tavern

Reviewed By Joan P

I reviewed this restaurant/ Tavern before! Left town for a couple of years! Now back! A return to Park Tavern! Anything changed? No! Even better! Thanks to the great friendly owners Shawn and Karen! They have expanded their menu! Not one item is not just the very best! But if you are visiting for the first time do order their signature does not get any better fried chicken! A recipe handed down to each Park Tavern owner over the past 70 years! Customer service is there! Waitstaff is there for you! Prove me wrong! Laughing!Thank you!

Spoons

Reviewed By m0m0f6b0ys

Fun restaurant with a surprising menu. We asked for a meal recommendation at our hotel and Spoons was suggested, so we went. Pleasantly surprised. The place is small, however. The food was good with lots of options you don't find other places. Plenty of food - we ended up taking much of it back to the hotel for later.

Prime Quarter Steak House

Reviewed By purteepicture

We were attending a concert at the Bureau County Fair in Princeton, so decided to try this restaurant we'd heard rave reviews about. We got there a little early and enjoyed relaxing at the bar prior to dinner. Once we sat down for dinner, I knew why it had such good reviews. Our steak was huge and we ended up sharing it. The salad bar and Texas toast were also yummy! Even though we live over an hour away, we'll make the trip again to enjoy a great meal here!! Oh and almost forgot, seniors get a 10% discount!!
