Restaurants near Lincoln Log Cabin State Historic Site

I think music needs turned down some but that’s a personal preference. Food is always top notch and the staff is professional and kind! We always leave full and happy! Great place truly

Always great to stop here. Food is excellent and service wonderful.

We detour through Effingham every chance we get and have enjoyed the restaurant for years. Noticed how prices have creeped up a big notch but that’s inflation unfortunately. What bothered me this time is that most everything comes with only a side of French fries or mashed potatoes. That’s a starchy high carb food and it’s a problem because the restaurant doesn’t allow substitutions, even for a small upcharge. So, you have to pay full price for a big serving of vegetables or salad. Not a good value, and not recognizing the fact that starchy foods contribute to and exacerbate, diabetes, growing epidemic. The other thing that bothered me is there was an unexplained 5% service charge added to the bill, which I’m then supposed to tip on top of. Do I tip 15% to the 5%, or 20% on top of it?

Service was outstanding. The food was delicious. My son loved his salmon and he's typically a picky eater. I enjoyed a classic, steak and mashed potatoes, and it was cooked perfectly and was very tender. They also had an impressive wine and cocktail selection. We will be back!

Our party of 12 enjoyed a fabulous dining experience. The appetizers were delicious - we had fried mushrooms, onion petals, spinach artichoke dip with chips, and cheesy jalapeno poppers. The entrees were served quickly and piping hot. The fall specials of bourbon apple butter burger and the apple butter pork chops were especially tasty. The pricing is very reasonable for the quality and the quantity of the food served. The staff very graciously and perfectly accommodated our request for seating due to mobility issues for some in our group. And of course, it is always fun to watch the "robot" deliver drinks to the table! We will go back often!
