Comfortable seating, fast service, and large portions of comfort food.If that’s what you crave, this is the place for you!We certainly did. After a long, cross-state drive it was a welcome stop for supper. My husband was happy that there were gluten free options. He had the pot roast and I had the roast turkey. There was plenty of food. From fresh bread to “family style fixings” (coleslaw + cottage cheese). We packed up our leftovers for lunch the next day. Food got 4-stars for saltiness (pot roast) and my turkey was warm, not hot. The gravy was also lumpy and thick like pudding. Otherwise the flavors were good.We loved the decor. Sound level was good - we could carry on a conversation even though the restaurant was full. In and out in an hour.Dietary restrictions: They had a separate menu listing gluten-free options. No GF bread

A warm inviting atmosphere. Like being in Grandma and Grandpa's house, with a Furniture is heavy and feels as though it is seen a great deal. Service is kind and friendly. The food is outstanding and way more than one person should eat. The menu is enormous with great variety offering something for everybody

Went to Machine Shed in Davenport and Urbandale (Iowa). Love them both. Both just off Highway (80 & 80/35). Like the homey atmosphere. Great selections, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Prices reasonable. Service for us was great, pleasant and attentive. Will frequent anytime we're in area.

It was a beautiful place. Kinda reminded me of Cracker Barrel with the store. I was told to come eat here that the food was good and was so disappointed. Entree took over an hour to come bread came out after 20 minutes. Prime Rib was overcooked and my mother in law bit into a piece of plastic. Plastic from bread tie. She bit into it and it cut the roof of her mouth. We stopped eating all of us (7). We didn’t want to eat anymore. Our food was cold. Just disappointed and it was my husband’s birthday dinner. The manager did comp her meal and an additional meal. Was appreciative of that but the experience overall was terrible.

We stopped in here for brunch and got the brunch buffet. Lots of options! Breakfast items, make to order omelets, salad bar with big salmon fillets, comfort foods. Something for everyone. It was hard to not over eat! The coffee is amazing! We asked if we could purchase some and they sold us a pound. Our waitress was fantastic. The restaurant seemed busy but Carolyn was attentive to small details regardless. Will definitely be returning here. Thank you for providing great food and outstanding service. Now to go shop the gift shop!
