Bonnie Cafe - Bonnie (IL)

5 /5 Remote Hog: Love this place! My 80+ year old parents usually will not eat out at any restaurant. Then I convinced them to come here with my husband and myself. Needless you say, they cant wait to visit again. My Dad loved the options on the food bar especially the fried chicken. He was pleasantly surprised at the dessert table too. They hardly ever go out to any restaurants, so I am over the moon happy that they liked this place. We will go back in the spring. Right now the winter cold is keeping us inside more. Next visit we are going to take some time to visit the military honor walls. I noticed there was a service for one at the entrance to honor our fallen soldiers. What a beautiful tribute to those who gave All. I salute this place for their dedication to our armed services and the dedication and their patriotic values. This place is a hidden treasure and well worth visiting.

3 /5 Deronda Baughman: We were here for bow hunting for a couple of weeks and ate here twice. The biscuits and gravy were good, and my boyfriend LOVED the ham (way too thin and fatty for my taste). Everything else was fair to middlin. Eggs, toast, pancakes, bacon, sausage - all fine but nothing tasted homemade. The smothered chicken was a tiny, overcooked breast with CANNED mushrooms and mozzarella cheese. My baked potato was a little on the hard side, but fine. The yeast roll was good (premade) but since the included chocolate cake never showed up before we left after we ate our meal, I cant review it. The prices are great and the portions are generous, so I can see why its popular with the locals and hunters. Its a good thing for them theres no competition locally!

4 /5 Lisa Seifrid: My visit was October 18th, 2025. I saw multiple reviews online about this little Bonnie Cafe in Bonnie, Illinois. At first we did not think it was open. But it was. Just like other reviewers mentioned, our food was quite good. We only ordered two cheeseburger platters, but they were very tasty. The other food that the waitresses brought out to other guests also look quite good. Prices are very reasonable! They have a variety of pies and cakes for dessert and pudding. We enjoy going to diners in little towns vs.chain places. This little cafe did not disappoint.

5 /5 Rick B: Great breakfast sandwich. Bacon & Hashies were good, too. We sat at the counter, admiring the quality staff in motion.
