We split the hungry man's breakfast. Everything was good. Biscuits were kinda hard for biscuits and gravy. Service was good. We can always count on solid, good food when we go. Also got the chocolate cake. Looks better than it tasted. Had much better at other places.

We had breakfast on a Saturday. There was a buffet that looked real good and fresh. I decided to have steak and eggs. My husband had the French toast made out of cinnamon rolls. If you tell your waitress you love eggs, they will put an extra egg on your plate with any of the full breakfast meals. At no charge. My steak was overcooked, but they were quick to replace it with a perfectly cooked sirloin. It was very tender. The cinnamon roll French toast was sweet and delicious. And more than a grown man can eat. The Machine Shed Restaurant looks like a locals favorite! It is worth the stop. There were lots of unique things in the store, too.

The food was spot on and I made both an excellent and poor life choice when I ordered all this food. There was no way I could finish this all and if I didn't have to fly out an hour later I probably would have taken that cinnamon roll with me. Service was prop and friendly and right as you walk in there is a lot to take in but definitely worth looking around. When I'm back in town there will be three things I do; one visit here day one so I take that roll with me again, two don't order so much and lastly and most importantly visit again.

Great breakfast spot! I have a family of five and they all got plenty of food and enjoyed our meals thoroughly. I got a great meat filled option that was so great and so much food. I was very content. We also saw the "World Famous Cinnamon Rolls" on the menu and had to try it. Our kids and I were very impressed. I highly recommend this place. The atmosphere is also really fun! Great family breakfast spot!

Usually a pretty solid place to eat. The food is good & they give you plenty. They bring out your meal & then also give you some all you can eat family style sides to enjoy before your entree arrives. The service is usually friendly & the theme of the restaurant makes you feel like you're at home on the farm enjoying your meal.

Everywhere one looks someone is advertising their "home cooked meals just like grandma made" and I am disappointed almost every time. However, a beam of sunshine will break through the clouds once in awhile to actually 'taste and eat an actual home made meal like grandma made. My wife and I were truly pleased with our choices of a four piece chicken and (shocker) a really delicious meatloaf dinner. We enjoyed and smiled as we ate and shared grandma food stories about what we ordered. A good place for comfort food.

Excellent place to eat! My waitress, Ashley, was spot-on with service, delivery, and friendliness! Although this place may look like a Cracker Barrel inside, you can tell the difference in the food right away. Each dish is crafted by hand, and the recipes taste homemade (not like industry food). I HIGHLY RECOMMEND eating here if you're in the area.

This isn't a review of the restaurant; this is a review of their peanut butter cookies! These are the best peanut butter cookies in the entire world. I haven't had such great cookies since my dear grandmother passed. They used to sell them in a basket up front like the cinnamon rolls, but now you have to order them off of the menu. Which do it! It's worth it! Machine Shed, why are you holding out??? Try the peanut butter cookies! They're the best! 🏆🏅🏆
