Restaurants near Sidney

“Great place, cold drinks, awesome people, and clean!”

“Sidney Dairy Barn is the absolute best! It never misses and I’m always sure to go over there for a little pick me up. It’s definitely worth the 30(ish) minute drive from Champaign/Urbana.”

“This is a fun neighborhood bar. Service was great. The food was excellent.
The bar & dining areas were very clean & the restrooms-WOW. Nice, recent renovations. I can't say enough good things about the Sidney Saloon!”

“Great food! Tried it on a whim when traveling from Chicago and the food is some of the best shawarma I've had in a while. The price for lunch is incredible for the insane amount you get as well!”

“I recommend everything on the menu. Baldarotta’s is incredible. I’m Italian myself and I’ve never had any Italian food more authentic than here. I’m also a relatively picky eater and I know with certainty that I could literally order anything on the menu and be shouting its deliciousness. And it’s even delicious as carry out or as leftovers when no longer technically “fresh.” A must try and you’ll absolutely return. We come from 40 minutes away solely to dine here.”

“Lots of places to sit both indoors and outdoors! Friendly staff. I’m not a fan of beer (I came here for a social gathering), and I was driving anyway, but they had a good number of non-alcoholic options (free refills on most of these!) for a very reasonable price.”

“The people at this bar are all extremely kind, caring, and compassionate. I recommend going on Monday nights for the Hootenanny which starts at 8pm. Matt the bartender will take good care of you, and Clayton, Chloe, Brad, and Dan among others are extremely friendly and helpful in case you wish to try performing for yourself. Give it a try! Just bring an acoustic instrument and have fun, you can't do any worse than I did, I assure you, and I still got plenty of applause. How could I forget Keith? The master of the mandolin and sound coordinator to boot.

I upset a lot of people at this bar, I didn't mean to, but I did, so I'm no longer welcome. That's ok though, it shouldn't stop you from attending, I'm sure you're wonderful, and whether you're reading this or not, know that I love you, even if we've never met. I love you, and I want you to be happy. You deserve to be happy, everyone does.”

“Absolutely amazing food, amazing service and amazing atmosphere. Paintings on the wall were breathtaking. Any time we are in town we will be eating here!!!”

“Stumbled onto this place and wow!!!! Hubby had to have a raspberry danish and it was amazing! I can’t resist macrons and they were hands down the best I’ve ever had! Also bought a loaf of sourdough bread and it was to die for!!! Can’t wait for our next trip to Urbana to get our Rick’s fix!!!”

“Cloud Mountain is amazing. They are an award winning Kombucha shop with the best owners and staff around!

They usually have ~13 different flavors: I personally recommend Lavender Honey or Hops. You can get flights and samples before you try anything.

Indoor and patio area is great! Go check it out!”

“very cute shop. very delicious ice cream. we were excited that they had lactose free options always available. the old fashioned lollipops & bottled soda choices were fun, too. we like Fitz soda & it's sold here. we got ice cream in waffle cones & bowls. they were all good. we will definitely be back. the prices & flavors of ice cream were very fair.”

“Had one of the best Reubens ever. Thank youChef. Tara was efficient, pleasant and accommodating. Come in as a stranger, leave as a friend. Will definitely return❤️”

“Tiana is literally the best! You’ll never get better service anywhere else. The food was fantastic and so was the service. I don’t think I’ve ever had a better dinning experience in my life. The Lava Trio and Grilled Salmon Ginger were phenomenal. I can’t say enough when it comes to the customer service. I’m a huge foody and dont mind spending money for good food and service. I’ve traveled all over the world and this was one of the best experiences ive ever had. Tiana was the best server I’ve ever had while dinning out and I’ve been all over the world. Truly fantastic. This place would not be the same without Tiana. She honestly puts the cherry on top.”

“Had the pleasure of sitting down and eating a meal with the owner of this establishment today. The food was amazing and the conversation even better. The pizza was perfect, the cheese just gooey enough, the sauce not overpowering but still adding a nice dose of flavor, and the pepperoni was some of the most flavorful and spiciest I’ve ever had on a pizza. The owner is so kind and a joy to talk to. It was all around one of the best experiences I’ve had at a pizza joint. Can’t recommend it enough.”

“Bunny’s Tavern never disappoints. We often visit before seeing shows at the Station Theatre, and get drinks after. The food and drinks were great as always, and the atmosphere makes it easy to settle in and stay longer than you planned…which we definitely did tonight, hanging out and playing the slots right up until close. What really stood out, though, was a moment of genuine kindness from the staff. Just before closing, a very elderly gentleman came in wearing his Illini gear, bright-eyed and bushy tailed, clearly thinking it was morning or game time, even though the game had long since ended. He sat down and asked for a cup of coffee, and the bartenders greeted him by name. When they gently told him it was nearly midnight and they didn’t have any coffee brewed. He was completely surprised. “You gotta be kidding me!!” One of the bartenders sat with him, spoke kindly and calmly, and then said she’d walk him home and help reset the clock in his apartment again. After what was clearly a long shift, seeing that level of patience and compassion was honestly beautiful. Great food, great drinks, and truly good people behind the bar. That kind of grace says everything about a place. I’ll be back, and I’ll be recommending it.”

“Every ice cream I have had there is delicious. My favorites are avocado, queso, strawberries& cream and tamarind. My wife's favorite is the lime. Friendly atmosphere and great products. I highly recommend visiting them.”

“Great food great service great atmosphere”

“So good!! Very nice and clean. The staff are all very friendly as well. And all the food here is tea good! The best Philly cheese steaks, gyros, burgers, and chicken!! Hands down the best in town!! And the shrimp are jumbo! And so good! I’m not a big fish eater but I do love the shrimp as well. And my parents love their fish as well! Can’t beat it”

“Had a lovely dinner with my beautiful wife we enjoyed the perfect lighting and music roomy booth tables. We will go back and invite friends and family.”

“Terrible customer service. After waiting an hour and a half for our delivery we called in to check on the order and were laughed at when we told them we had a house full of kids waiting for dinner. They couldn’t even tell us when our order would be ready. Our orders are typically messed up from here anyways I don’t know why we even tried again, definitely lost a costumer tonight. Spoke with a girl on the phone, but the manager (Donny I believe) was standing next to her at the time. Matt Umbarger”

“Service was quick!! Kat helped us and she recommended some yummy additions to our drinks! We love going to this 7Brew cause the drinks are always 10/10!! Crystal and Paula made our drinks!! And they did an amazing job 💕!”

“Super yummy ~ As a certified foodie, this is the best Mexican food in the CU. Don’t even go anywhere else. I really enjoyed the guacamole as it was very fresh and it is evident that there is a lot of thought and preparation that goes into it! The chips are the best chips I’ve had from a Mexican restaurant! I also really enjoyed the beans and rice, a lot of places have really bland, cold, poor tasting sides but La Veya truly killed it with theirs.”

“We have been here several times and always love the food. The people are always friendly too and today one of the owners (I don’t remember what he said his name is now-sorry!) was helping us clean up a spilled drink while my autistic son was over stimulated and upset about it and even hit him. He was still so kind and told us not to apologize and that everything was okay. He even went out of his way to make me a treat after the table was singing happy birthday to me. Definitely a family-friendly place and we’ll be back again!”

“Best homemade food for miles. Reasonably priced. Friendly staff and greet service. Has become my husband and I’s favorite place to go.”

“This was a great place to eat. The food was excellent and came with great service.”

“Very friendly staff, was able to accommodate a large group and the food was fresh and very reasonable priced.Our large group was served very quickly.”

“The food and service is excellent. We stopped for lunch and it was so much food we have dinner also.”

“The taco salad is the best one I've had in town
Their sangria is amazing
If you have a large group it is best to take the patio seating... so... no big groups (over 6) should visit in the winter unless you dont mind sitting at different tables.”

“Great food, great experience and great owners. I manage a local contracting company and during the hail storm they kept their business local and chose our company so we should to!”

“Thank You Joe for such an awesome meat lovers pizza. I will be back.”
