    Just ate at Cubby Hole yesterday morning and I still have an upset stomach. I ordered a strip steak with eggs, hash browns and toast. The steak was a strip of undercooked fat with a strip of overcooked meat...!!! Guess that's why it's called strip steak..!! So much for med well.. !! Everything else was good tasting, big deal....!! Looks like another restaurant to strike off the list. I have a silly rule..if I get sick after I eat in your restaurant..well I won't return..!! Over the years I have had more than a few meals at Cubby Hole.

    If it's one thing I miss about Illinois, it's this place. A perfect hole in the wall restaurant with tasty food. Best biscuits and gravy ever! Low prices and was always a family tradition for us to go there once a week. Love the breakfast menu and the broccoli soup. Even though it only takes cash, it's a perk to why the prices of the meals are lower then most. When I come to visit family and friends in Illinois again I will definitely be stopping here. The waitresses are fantastic gals and make your dining experience a nice one!!!!

    First off they only accept cash, which in this day and Age is dumb! They must be screwing the govt cause without a paper trail it's hard to be tracked! There is nothing special about this place. Food is TASTELESS AND BLAND! Have been twice and I think a 5 yr old can cook better food. Biscuits and gravy is horrible. "Biscuits" are dry, cheap, not homemade, and gravy was cold and lacked flavor! My wife and mother in law LOVE this place. Then again they have very low standards for food. I'm sure I'll have to try it again cause they love it. I'll just stick to coffee and toast...let's hope they don't screw that up. PASS THIS PLACE, KEEP GOING TO MCD's

    We loved this place. It's cash only so be prepared. It's a small town diner, very cozy with a friendly feel. We were greeted immediately by a friendly waitress who promptly brought our drinks. We had biscuits and gravy, hash browns and bacon. Everything was really good. It was exactly what we expected from a little dinner. The service was wonderful and everyone there helped each other out. Great place. We'll be back!

    I had lunch from this place a couple of years ago and wasn't impressed. The other day a co-worker wanted to get breakfast so I decided to give it another shot. I wish I hadn't. The food was bland and tasteless (what there was of it, which wasn't much). For what I paid, I would have been MUCH better off at Mickey D's. If that wasn't enough, my stomach churned for most of the day as well. Needless to say, I'll be AVOIDING this place from now on.

    Hands down my favorite breakfast place in Lake and McHenry Counties. The service is great and the food is even better. Granted you really can't mess up bacon and eggs, but everything else is delicious (hashbrowns, corn beef hash, gravy, etc). A must try if you're in the area. You will not be disappointed.

    What a dump. Came.here with my family and neighbor for breakfast. My neighbor had rave reviews about the place, saying it was the best breakfast in the area. Now I've only lived in Richmond a year now, and they their whole life, so I thought they knew what they were talking about. They didn't. We came with a party of six to an empty restaurant, and they seated us fairly quickly but then made us wait forever while our waitress took a phone call or some dumb thing. The place itself is a tiny outdated box of a house made into a restaurant. It looks like nothing's been updated since the 70's, which can be charming if done right, but this wasn't. It just looked like a run down dump, inside and out. So we wait forever for the waitress to take our order, wait even longer for our food, and it is awful. Small portions of half cooked hashbrowns, slimy over easy eggs and stale cold toast. Even the coffee tasted bad somehow. I mean, seriously? How do you mess up coffee? On top of it the waitress was rude and condescending, like she was doing us a favor by bringing us our nasty food. Wish I never listened to my neighbor and won't be coming back.

    Big menu with something for everyone. It is a small diner so if you see a table, grab it! It seems to have a lot of local loyalty which is always a good sign when choosing where to eat. I got the egg skillet with chorizo and they did not skimp on chorizo. They were also quick to refill coffee, something my husband appreciates even more than I appreciate them not using bagged/frozen potatoes!! If I was in the area and need a bite.. I'd stop there again.

    Strange little lake-county type diner. It looks like a house from the outside and on the inside you have the standard booths and breakfast bar. I think the food was good but not great. I'm giving it an extra star for the friendly staff.

    Nice little diner with good quick food at a good price. The staff is exceptional, they make you feel right at home. It's very small, you may have to wait for a seat,but it is worth it, because the people keep packing in there. Nice cozy place for breakfast or lunch.

    Breakfast diners are a big deal in northern Illinois/southern Wisconsin. There are many to choose from but The Cubby Hole is consistently one of the best. Seat yourself at the counter or your party of four at a booth. The Menus are there for you. Meals are inexpensive (two can eat for $12) and have that home cooked accent. The Biscuits and gravy are my personal favorite. Great coffee, and service will keep me coming back. weekend rush hour service will make it difficult to find a seat at times, but if a good country breakfast you seek, it is worth your time to wait.

    Yeay, Cubby Hole!! Great food, nice servers. I'm only giving 4 stars, because they don't accept credit cards :(

    A nice little retro diner with consistently good food, daily specials and exceptional servers. Always pleasant and helpful servers who know the menu well and even suggest adaptations to listed dishes. There are usually a long list of daily specials that are exceptional. They cook from scratch, so a roast beef dinner or sandwich is not something that has been microwaved, but roast beef and gravy like grandma used to make. They usually have a nice selection of fresh pies and they go out of their way to make your meal an exceptional experience. They brew their own iced tea, so they get lots of extra points from me. They are only open til 2 or 3 pm in the winter, but expand their hours to included dinner in the summer season. Clean rest rooms, competent and experienced help and all around good food. They don't take plastic, so bring cash or be prepared to cross the parking lot to the ATM at the tobacco purveyor.

    First off The Cubby Hole is a tiny place but don't let the name fool you, the portions are large and the food & coffee are delicious and served hot! Waitresses are nice and chat with you. One thing we noticed is that they don't rush you, if you want to sit and talk, they leave you alone. Will definitely visit again.
