I can only share my experience. Coming off the road from a long drive, I decided to get a meal from a smaller restaurant in a small town, hoping to be able to have a better experience than bigger chains. I waited for nearly 5 minutes before a waitress saw me and they were not very busy at all. I just ordered the cheeseburger and baked potato. The cheese was yuck, the meat was dry and overcooked, the bun was really small and it crumbled in my hands as I tried to eat the bites I choked down. The lettuce was turning brown and the potato was still dry after smashing 12 servings of butter and 3 sides of sour cream on it. That’s no exaggeration. I don’t even think Jen was supposed to be waiting my table, but she was much more attentive than the girl that initially took my order. Jen really did shoe that she was concerned about my satisf,, even offering to reduce the bill. I appreciated her kindness and concern. There were a few other costumers there that seemed content, so maybe I just got a the luck of the draw lol

The food was great! Priced very reasonably. All the staff was friendly. The restrooms were clean, and everything was stocked. In the service station area, they had a self-serve Dunkin Donuts coffee area and everything from trucker hats to cards for your friends and family. Semi parking was abundant, and you don’t have to walk a mile to get to the restaurant. If you’re ever in the area, I highly recommend Lucy’s.

I do not understand any of the negative reviews, this place was great. We stopped by for a visit to get some breakfast after a cold drive. The coffee was nice and fresh, the food was terrific and the service outstanding. We took home some of the homemade bread to try for ourselves. It was awesome! We will definitely come by again when we are in the area since we were Visiting from Texas.

My wife and I and two friends went to Lucy’s Kitchen for lunch. The place was pretty crowded yet I only saw one waitress. We all ordered our food and waited a really long time to get it. Among other things, I ordered two sides; a loaded baked potato and broccoli. My potato arrived, it was just a potato wrapped in aluminum foil. I reminded the waitress that it was supposed to be loaded. She left and returned with a plate with a little shredded cheese and a few crumbles of bacon, no sour cream, despite her telling me that a loaded baked potato came with sour cream. I then asked her where my broccoli was. She told me that they were out of broccoli. She asked me if I would like a salad or anything else in its stead. I ordered a salad. A few minutes later, she returned and told me they were out of lettuce. I ordered some french fries, which turned out to be pretty bad. Oh, well. The rest of our food was acceptable, but not great. The waitress was clearly overworked. She could have used some help with her tables. I sympathize with her. All things considered, it wasn’t a great dining experience. I doubt I’ll be back.

SO good! Their food is full of flavor and fresh! We stopped on our way and I am glad we discovered Lucy’s Kitchen. The burger melt full of flavor with grilled onions, the cherry pie was so good. OMG I rarely post but they really impressed me.

Update: Went back on 5/8/2023. Things have really changed. All the help has quit and went to work at another local restaurant. Server was telling me this and said she was going also at end of week. Food was totally different and the sausage gravy looked unappealing and was uneatable. Hash browns were soggy recooked type. Eggs were cooked perfect though. Would not recommend now. 8:30am and only 4 other people in there eating.

The menu is very limited and the food is good but not outstanding by far. The service was kind, sweet and caring about how their service was given. The restaurant was remodeled a few years back and it has that comfortable midwest café feel.
