We only buy our beans here to make espresso because they have been consistent, reliable, and fairly priced for fresh beans.”

“We had 5 people in our party and everyone order something different and there were no complaints just compliments and lip smacking. I order the ribs and they were delicious, fall off the bone tender. Sauce was just right not to sweet or spicy. Our waitress was phenomenal, she was super good and attentive, with a wonderful personality!!”

“The atmosphere was amazing and laid back. I went on a Sunday and it wasn't too busy but there were still quite a few people there. The beer selection names are always humorous but their other beverages are a bit different. The food has improved a bit.

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Big C’s BBQ and Catering in Goshen absolutely blew us away! This was our first time eating here and we’re officially in love. We ordered the platter with pulled chicken, brisket, ribs, mac and cheese, baked beans, and potato salad — plus the Cowboy Brisket Sandwich — and every single bite was delicious. The meats were tender, smoky, and packed with flavor. The brisket was a standout, both on the platter and on the Cowboy Brisket Sandwich, which was loaded, hearty, and incredibly satisfying. The ribs were perfectly cooked and juicy, and the pulled chicken was moist and well-seasoned. The sides were just as impressive — creamy mac and cheese, rich baked beans, and fresh, flavorful potato salad that tasted homemade. You can tell they put real care into their food. Great portions, amazing flavor, and an all-around fantastic meal. We’ll definitely be back and recommending Big C’s BBQ to everyone we know.”

“Elephant Bar is a Goshen staple. We stopped in as part of a bar crawl for our 15-year high school reunion, and we had a blast listening to the live music, playing darts, watching the football game, and catching up with fellow classmates. The bartenders are super friendly, the drinks are cheap, and the vibes are great✌️ They were also super flexible and awesome to work with as part of our bar crawl!”

“It’s so good!! Love taking my sons there for a treat 😋”

“Very friendly and welcoming church. One that preaches the Gospel.”

“This place is on the Goshen College campus and isn't accessible all open hours cause ya have to have an ID to enter the place and that's totally acceptable. The only downside is that this is the best place I've gotten a latte in Goshen & I've been to pretty much all of the other local and national coffee places. Loved your coffee ☕ ❤️”

“My favorite coffee shop! Excellent homemade bagels and breakfast sandwhiches. Amazing lattes. All around good.”

“My husband and I loved it. The plantains were delicious and the meat was juicy and so yummy. It’s a gem of a place. Don’t judge how it looks. The server was friendly.”

“Today (8/27/20) we had an incident in the parking lot, where an irresponsible driver decided to not follow vehicular laws and nearly ran over my 5 year old, myself, and my 1.5 year old who was in my arms, and I’m 6 months pregnant. Since I was unable to catch the persons license plate and I was a bit frazzled, when I went inside and asked to see a manager everyone was really sweet and understanding, Erin, the manager, really helped make me feel like something was being done about the issue. Thank you Erin, your customer service is amazing, I appreciate it.”

“Clean, friendly, and fast. We enjoy this gas station. Great slushies and the "restaurant" portion is a wick pizza style bite to eat. Breakfast all day as well when the elmos part is open. There is also a drive thru.

Parking: Around entire sides and front of building.”

“Very friendly staff. I always receive quick service and great food. Highly recommended”

“Always great food and service!! Gracias Amigos!🤤”

“

The bar has a nice atmosphere and the decor does a good job of capturing a Mexican vibe. The drink selection is decent, with a variety of tequilas and mezcal options, though some of the cocktails felt a bit overpriced for what you get.

The music was lively and added to the ambiance, but it was a bit too loud, making it hard to have a conversation. While the staff was friendly, service was slower than expected. Overall, it’s a decent spot for a night out if you’re not in a rush and enjoy a lively setting, but there’s room for improvement.”

“Everything I've had here (coffee, cinnamon roll, cheesecake, chocolate turtles) are all the best I've ever had of those items! It's all beautifully packaged too!”

“Everything i ordered was really good,i will look forward to go back there and try different food.As much as i like what i oredered but i like to try different food.The people there is friend,their waitress keep checking on you.I recommend this place if your around goshen downtown to stopby and check it out.”

“Food was delicious. Las quesabirrias are really good!”

“Debby at the goshen Starbucks is my absolute favorite she's is the sweetest and kindest women everytime I go there and she's working she's always in such a good mood,”

“So the hours for this place are 10am to 4pm Saturday and Sunday. That's it. It's one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in Goshen Indiana, and if you know that town that's saying a lot. Delicious!”

“Very unorganized waited 10 minutes for sugar one of the staff just said we dont have it but another went and got it. Normally not bad service but lately there is a new staff and most of the time they seem lost looks like more training is needed”

“By far, some of the best ice cream in the area. The fruit flavors are especially good, and exceedingly refreshing. Note: it does help to have a bit of prior knowledge surrounding the kinds of Mexican desserts here, though not necessary.”

“This was 'no big thing' in respect to what we ordered. We were eating light and on the run. We ordered one meal between the two of us.
However, the Atmosphere I refer to in this interview is the young lady who was working by herself, taking care of everyone who was there and came in after us.

Parking: Typical parking in front of the building-A Subway/gas station strip.”

“Most of the time. I would say yes but today is maybe. I ordered wings and fried pickles and finally found soggy azz fried pickled UNDER my wings -- why were they not boxed separately?.Not quite crunchy and crisp. I did try to call the restaurant three times in 30 mins and no answer to let them know they weren't included. Now know to look UNDER my wings for my sides now 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤨”

“We waited 15 minutes for a seat.. The hostess was nice. Our waitress, (I think she said she was called Crazy, she had really neat rainbow colored hair) was Johnny on spot and even had stickers for me kids and kept them laughing and they thought she was really funny. She helped me pick a margarita which was really good. The food was hot and pretty good. We ordered a variety plate and I had leftovers. We had a really nice time.”

“One of the only Subways that actually change out knives between orders. Thank you Tori and Brooklynn, for the well-made subs and for caring about your customers! A+ service from both of you”

“My FAVORITE Chinese spot in goshen. It's the furthest one from my house but I always choose this one because the meat isn't dry and tastes fresh. I eat small portions so I loke something that re heats well. I've tried re heating it from other places and the chicken isn't edible anymore. This place though, I have DAY 3 LEFTOVERS and they are still delicious. The rice is so fluffy and yummy. The flavors are so good. I think ive been frequenting this place dang near 3x a week.”

“I was in Goshen on business and stopped in for breakfast. It was crowded so knew it had to be a local favorite and should be good. First of all, the coffee was amazing, but the eggs were so fresh, large portions and don't get me started on those pancakes!! I have a feeling that anything on that menu will be fabulous! It will definitely be on my list and a go to next time I am in Goshen!”

“Applebees honored all veterans on Nov 11. For the first time, I was a benefactor of this generosity this past week. The entire staff wore “Honor our Veterans” shirts with a welcoming smile and great service.
Thank you Applebees and thank you to all the great staff of the Goshen restaurant!”

“Lemme tell yall a little story how I initially was going to Bk for their classic chicken sandwiches… But due to an accident in the road it was blocked off so I had to go to McDonald’s. Alright I’ll just get something simple, I got free fries with the app and a couple of mcChickens. Let me tell yall those mcChickens were the absolute best I’ve ever had. For the very first time it was fresh lettuce not that usual brown dead lettuce! Just the right amount of mayo no over spilling. And I got pickles with it because of prices I’m gonna add stuff to it to make it more worth. When I tell yall this was the most perfect mcChickens I’ve ever had in not exaggerating! Dunk it in some buffalo sauce and that was amazing. I went through the drive thru so I can’t say much about anything else but the food top tier. I was almost in tiers with what felt like a luxury meal for my broke ass. If yall can replicate those mcChickens I may never go to any other McDonald’s again”

“It's amazing to finally have a restaurant where you can customize your food to your needs.

When trying to balance macros.. protein, carbohydrates and fats.. the bowls are where it's at. You can control the rice, chicken, veggies, avocado etc.”

“Great food, Ok service, Staff needs to step things up. Waited 30 minutes on are food and when it arrived my wife's Chipotle Fresh Mex Bowl did not have any lettuce in it.”

“Decent food for a cheap price, especially before 3pm.”

“Ben here twice in the last couple weeks. The first time was ok. But not the greatest selection. Of course it was 30 minutes before closing. But clean and polite staff Was back today during mid afternoon 2:30-3:00. Fully stocked. Same polite staff. Refills taken care of and clean restrooms. I don’t live in this town. But when I am I. Town. I will visit. 15.00 with drink. For that selection of food. Heck I spend that much at a burger joint. Worth going if this is your type of food.”

“My friend with cancer, does not have any trouble finding something she can eat there that’s tasty…”

“We were so happy to have KFC in Goshen, since they left Elkhart. We went last night, got the 12pc. Family Pack. The gentleman came out and said the biscuits would be 6 minutes longer, would we like something else or wait? We said dessert. We were given chocolate cake. We were very pleased.”

“The best ice cream in Elkhart county”

“The pizza is great, my favorite is the buffalo chicken bacon ranch or New York White. All of the appetizers are good, but I think the cheesy garlic bread is best. A solid selection of beer that updates occasionally, plus great bartenders like Molly and Spencer who mix excellent drinks. The staff is always friendly and welcoming.”

“Before we move on to the Christmas season, I need to say how thankful I am to Lewis that works at the Goshen Popeyes location. I was unable to locate a Popeyes turkey (which if you have never had one, you must try) for Thanksgiving. Lewis went above and beyond to help me locate one. It was so wonderful to receive excellent customer service. Although, I did not eat at this location, I gave it five stars for atmosphere because the personable tone and helpful attitude created an atmosphere that made me feel welcomed and valued. Thank you for helping to make our Thanksgiving special. Everyone loved the turkey!”
