Historical place on what was route 66. Unique chicken is the specialty. There is a diners, drive ins and dives episode filmed here - you can view on YouTube. Chicago's Best also filmed here. A nice way to visit is at lunchtime - daily buffet has salad bar - fried chicken is always one of the entrees. Usually has a good selection of craft beers - with a few on special. Fried fish is abundant during lent.

We love this place, but haven't been on a Friday night before. Tonight, I discovered all you can eat cod or catfish for $12.99 available on Fridays. I had the cod, but you can mix and match if you want. The breading isn't too thick, and the pieces are super thick. They are cooked nicely, and are great. My wife joined the loyalty program and used her birthday coupon for a free chicken dinner. It comes with the soup and salad bar. If you are extra hungry try an order of gizzards. Theirs are very tender, and have a nice peppery flavor. They are served with gravy and BBQ sauce for dipping. Between an appetizer, their biscuits, and the salad bar, you will be taking a big part of your dinner home. This is not a bad thing, but you will be full when you leave.

This place is as advertised. Authentic Rout 66 road house that still looks the same. Food is great, consistent and a good value. The Chicken Basket's big dining room with giant stone fireplace makes it feel like you are back in the 50s, having a meal with everyone else headed west on old Route 66. Wait times can vary with avg being 15 to 20 min. 5 to 9pm(close) could be 30 min. But well worth it!

Chicken made the way it's supposed to be enjoyed. Hot, fresh and made to order. Delicious legendary corn fritters, warm homemade style biscuits. Hard to beat farm raised chicken for the family. The bar staff is friendly and attentive if you choose to get carry out and wait for your order. Can't go wrong with this Rt66 legend.

My huge family came here for our Christmas dinner on a random Thursday night. They accomendated for all 22 of us, and our server was amazing. The food was great and the atmosphere was awesome. Plus they put up with our loud family, and our obnoxious Christmas games! Thank you! We will be back!
