    As someone who prides herself as having tasted a variety of native flavors from Chicago to New Orleans as well as several authentic international cuisines, it is sometimes disappointing to come to a smaller place like Kankakee and have a serious flavor crisis! So, when I was finally introduced to "Paul's Place", I really did not expect too much. But this place has rendered this skeptic into a believer. I have visited this place 2 more times since my first visit (because I feared that my initial low expectation led me to set a low bar for their food). But I am very excited to admit that this place is legit in terms of deliciousness. I was seriously surprised by the inclusion of alfalfa sprouts in the Paul's burger but they definitely know what they're doing. It is a good pairing for the 1000 island dressing and the bacon. I highly recommend this burger. Also, if they give you a choice between battered or crinkly cut fries, get the battered....delish! Your heart may grumble but your palate with forever be in your debt! Their chicken wing dinner seems to be a customer fave, I think.....the chicken is not spiced or anything but the batter is pretty tasty. It is simply seasoned, I believe, but having had several simply spiced chicken out there, the size of their wings is chosen well which allows them to be perfectly battered and cooked. So even when you're tasting plain chicken, every bite of the accompanying batter gives it a nice flavor and crispiness. Their garlic shrimp is not too overpowering either. It is not the best I've had but it is pretty good! I would also recommend the triple chocolate cheesecake if they have it. I don't think it was made in house, but it is good nonetheless (whatever vendor it is from). Also, they have a wide beer selection available in this area, I believe. All in all, a very pleasant experience. I highly recommend this place. With its very affordable price range, huge portions, and good flavors, I would recommend putting it on your speed dial! It'll come in handy any time you want to go out for some casual breakfast/lunch/dinner or just want to order for pick-up because it is a lazy day for cooking.

    Looking for a place in the area that sells craft beer and good food? This place rocks. Playing a good mix of music from funk, modern rock, classic rock, metal, etc. Plenty of people even mid week, young women, old geezers, and middle aged folk to boot! Dancing, drinking, eating, games, sports on the screen. Now to the important part... A FULL BAR with about 130 canned and bottled craft beers plus a full rack of liquor that can wet any apatite. The food was fantastic, flavorful, plentiful and reasonable in price. Salad, dinner special, two drinks runs 16$. The bartender was fast and courteous as well as happy and talkative, the owner Paul came up to me and started a conversation and introduced himself. I'm always happy when the owner is making sure his establishment is running well and steps in to pickup a mess or ring up a customer when needed. Don't come in here thinking this is going to be a mellow romantic place to eat, It is a bar that serves good food. Please tell Paul you saw my review and if you agree with me you should leave a comment also.

    MANY years ago this was a great place to go for lunch. They had great homemade soups and fantastic sandwiches at a very reasonable price. Then they closed, re-opened, closed under suspicious circumstances and re-opened again. Ever since, the food is low quality, high priced. Thanks, I'll pass and go somewhere else.

    Had a family reunion. Everyone had a good time. Food was good, more than everyone could finish. I would recommend Paul's Place to everyone. Come one , come all. Lots of beer to choose from.

    We really had no idea what to expect as there were no reviews posted as of yet,. After looking at the website, we felt that we should give Paul's a try. It is a no frills diner that is also a bar and is very "local" The menu was just right. We were there for breakfast. I had the pepper and egg break fast sandwich with hash browns and coffee. All items were hot, fresh and delicious. We could not tell if it was cash only but at these prices, cash expectations was very reasonable. My companion had the full order of sausage and biscuits. Once again, delicious. If you are in the Kankakee, IL area, you should give Paul's a try.

    Definitely my favorite hidden gem in Kankakee! I eat there at least twice a week and have never had anything bad there

    Word of the day: DECENT. Between the taps and the craft beer in the cooler at dingy Paul's Place, it's a DECENT selection knowing what's in the area. If you need to make a beer run, it's a DECENT option.

    I was looking forward to this place because of the $3 mimosas I saw discussed on Yelp. Momma likes her mimosas!!! Unfortunately, mimosas aren't served until 10. Swing and a miss. The service was very good. The decor wasn't awesome, but in fairness, it is a bar. The worst part was the food. My omelet and my children's pancakes were decent, but my husband's eggs were nearly raw. The coup de grâce was the potatoes. Whoa, Nelly! If I were the type to send food back -- and I'm not -- these potatoes would've gone back. My husband ordered the hashbrowns; they were raw. I ordered the home fries; they were cold, old-tasting, oily, and slightly rancid. Instead, we left behind nearly untouched potato sides on both our plates. Yuck. I would have awarded only 1 star, but my omelet and the service bumped this up to 2 stars. Maybe we got them on a bad potato day? *shrug*

    I used to drink here a lot in my good ol' days. I never once tried their food until I saw all the stellar reviews on Yelp and knew I was missing out. I've been here a few times now and I've tried: Paul's burger, teriyaki and mild battered wings, queso poppers, creamy chicken noodle soup, and the fish and chips. So far, everything has been really delicious. I think my favorite was the burger. It was really juicy and despite the fact that it seems like there's far too many ingredients on it, everything blended really well and tasted good together. I like with the dinners you get a choice of your potato and veggies. When I ordered my fish, I was able to also get fries and steamed broccoli with it. Not bad for $7. They also have an out of this world beer menu that could rival any bar in Chicago. They'll even let you go behind the counter to inspect their giant selection. AND we discovered the last time that we came that they have Revolution's Iron Fist on tap. We sat at the bar on Saturday night and were served by Chris (I believe that was his name.) He was so accommodating and a really cool guy. He even made sure to say "bye" and "thanks for coming in tonight" which was an added bonus. OF COURSE, I'll be back.. probably this weekend.

    I thought this place use to be good. Went not too long ago & had a horrible service. My table had to wait forever to be tended to. They were out of a lot of the beer they were suppose to have. Something was wrong with the water (luckily my friend had a bottle in her purse). My friend's order was wrong... Mine was cold. Not sure if we just caught them on a bad day or what. Hmm

    This has to be one of the most hole-in-the-wall, towny like places I've ever been to. But they have some dang good wings. It's VERY casual....like don't dress up. You won't fit in. The servers know everyone (like I said, it's a lil' home town place). They have all the good home cookin', greasy, savory foods that we all enjoy. The wings though are by far the best. They also have a great bar with quite the variety. The decor itself is rundown, but they make up for it with their service and good food.

    Horrible. That's all I can say. Yuck. No atmosphere. The food was bland. Why anyone would return here is beyond me.
