Stopped in Springfield IL and had some fantastic Donna’s Mean Green Chili and Smoked Pork Chop for breakfast with two eggs and jalapeño toast! It was fantastic! I highly recommend stopping in.

Wonderful experience. Ate breakfast at Cook’s. I tried their egg and meat combo with a side of red chili (made my own breakfast shoe). The homemade sourdough bread was delicious. The corn beef hash was the perfect combo of crispy and soft. I loved the red chili and can’t wait to try the others. This was my 1st time giving this place a try, but it will not be my last. Give it a try, you will not be disappointed.

We ate breakfast here. Cozy, yummy, fun decor. Lots of veggies on the menu, which was not expected, and they can accommodate those on gluten-free diets. Very reasonable prices. Our waiter had a great sense of humor. I found the food to be …. bland. The service and atmosphere were good, though.

We went for dinner tonight. I was definitely not impressed with the food. The Brisket was 90% fat. Ordered Lemon Meringue pie, it wasn’t. It was Coconut cream. The quality of food wasn’t worth the money. I understand it’s a mom & pops restaurant. I wish the best for thist place. But, I won’t be back. The food has gone down hill, badly.

I had an omelet which I asked for crisp bacon which had a great amount. I had a choice of bread about ten choices. Friend with me had a grilled tenderloin horseshoe two different cheeses with meat an inch thick! Met manager and waitress excellent!

It’s nice and very friendly family restaurant. We were there at Sunday night, that’s their family dinner night. Food was tasty, the owner was very nice and honestly. We may go back try their normal menu, we was told by another customer their chill is very good in town.

Cook’s Spice Rakc & Chili is a must. I had briskey with eggs, hashbrowns, and toast. Everything was done exactly as ordered and the staff is wonderful. This is a small, home-style location that is friendly and worth every penny. Highly recommend.
