“ Took my sister there for the 1st time. She absolutely loved it! The atmosphere was great, very cozy and cute. The service was awesome, and the staff were great! Going back for the custard!!! ”
“ Stopped for a quick bite. The peach melba crisp was the star. ”
“ Best burger and fries in the area! I ordered the bacon cheeseburger and my son ordered the BLT. (Picture shows only half of BLT). My mouth did not fit burger - I had to squeeze it down. Niiiice and JUICY!! Their custard variety is also very good. Unique flavors, mix ins and toppings. Everything always made fresh. Well worth the wait! We choose to sit outside on such a beautiful day. Also has plenty of seating inside with fun and welcoming atmosphere for families with children. ”
“ THE BEST BURGERS AND SWEET POTATO FRIES IN ILLINOIS PERIOD! PLEASE GIVE YOUR EMPLOYEES A RAISE, they are all very kind and helpful! Also the turtle sundae was very delicious. The establishment is very spacious and clean. I love visiting places where the employees are having fun while still providing excellent customer service. It almost felt like i was in the krusty krab with a lot of spongebobs and no squidwards. UPDATE 8/10 this time i had the classic chicago hotdog and sweet potato fries! Unfortunately this time around the hot dog was not all that great, very bland and actual weiner didn’t have much flavor and the sweet potatoes were a bit burnt, but i think this is a minor mistake than can easily be fixed in the future! Can’t wait to be back! ”
“ A great meal in any season! First time at Van’s and I would highly suggest having lunch or dinner here. Enjoy a small town feel while eating a burger and frozen custard. We got the cheeseburger and bacon cheeseburger, definitely coming back for the sweet potato fries. Toppings are endless for frozen custard, we got vanilla with real cheesecake bits and Oreos, delicious! ”
“ Fries were really good, not maybe to salty. Chicago dog was good but the bun was tough. The cheeseburger was great, ice cream was yummy! Don't like the fact that there's no option to not tip when you pay with a card. Tip culture is getting out of hand. But love the building and the place ”
“ Excellent!!! We were redeeming a gift from a friend for a sundae and ended up getting and splitting a double cheeseburger and fries! Fries exceptional, burger excellent , fresh hot excellence service, mentioned we were splitting the burger, they brought it over in two baskets, same with our sundae. Great use of paper cups for drinks - no Foam- thank you!! Excellent customer service!! If there were 10 stars we would give them 10! ”
“ I love me some ice cream! Van's is a fantastic place for a quick snack, a full meal, and the most delicious custard! So so good! And they have a cute little outside patio too! ”
