Harner's Bakery Restaurant

The menu was top-notch, and the service was impeccable. Great classic menu items such as Buckwheat pancakes and a great atmosphere while overlooking the Fox River. I would happily eat there again.

Went for dinner, and we won't be back. We waited about 20 minutes on a Friday evening, which wasn't too bad but after having the food, a waste of our time and money. The iced tea tasted watered down, the split pea soup was thin, and we didn't get a bread basket when ordering dinner. The coconut shrimp seemed bland, and the mango sauce tasted like what kids play-doh smells like. The waitress seemed in a hurry anytime we needed something, and apparently, you can't order bakery items to go, which is a waste of time, in my opinion. They also make you go to the counter to pay your bill, which is in the way at every angle and overly crowded with people.

Incredible food. I was seated in a pretty bleak side room not near any of the windows overlooking the river, so didn't get much of the ambience of the main dining area, but it certainly didn't detract from the DELICIOUS food! Stocked homemade soup and salad bar was SO delicious. And the homemade meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and mushroom gravy were both filling and pleasureful. Wait staff was top knotch friendly, attentive, and went out of their way to make everything enjoyable. Truly awesome lunch experience.

Grandma's kitchen, homestyle food. If that's what you are looking for this is where you want to go. Their bread/biscuit not sure what to call it is amazing. They also have a bakery and I am sure you will find something sweet you love just like we did. We were traveling through and found this on Google. Very glad we made it a stop. The views if the river while you eat are beautiful as well.

The biscuits and gravy were amazing. I gotta be honest, they were probably the best biscuits and gravy I've ever had. Everyone from the staff to the people at the table beside ours was friendly, the food was great, and I just felt completely at home here. Plus the bakery smelled like a corner of heaven! (I'm including two pics from out the window beside our table, you can see the river and I also saw a big fat bird in the bush.
