Midway Duck Inn - Low Point, Illinois

Stopped by for lunch with my wife today(Sunday). Let me start off by saying the atmosphere is fantastic! Our waitress Randie, was spot on and knew the menu like the back of her hand, very impressive. We both ordered sweet tea and it was garnished with a lemon slice and pineapple slice, absolutely perfect! Now let's move on to the food. I ordered the duck tenders and my wife orded the meatloaf. The duck tenders were perfectly fried with an AMAZING dipping sauce. The meatloaf came with 4 sides🤯. It was the most flavorful meatloaf we both have ever tasted. Cream corn, salad(which was perfect), mashed potatoes and a corn fritter was all delicious. Our bill was VERY reasonable, around $50 which was worth every cent. We will DEFINITELY be back and I highly recommend this hidden gem eatery as it's now on my top 3 restaurants to visit and eat. I heard the catfish is amazing, so I'll be back to try that next time, very soon!!

First time dining here tonight. The food was great and service was wonderful. I had the crispy chicken sandwich with nashville hot added to it. My husband had the philly cheese steak sandwich. Then my kids had the mini corn dog kids meal and mac-n-cheese kids meal... they both cleared their plates and said they'd want to come back again (we don't always get that answer from them - so it's worth noting). Very large portions, additional sides, and complimentary rolls to start. We didn't have reservations for a Saturday night. It was good we showed up before 6 because it really started filling up.

I recently visited this hidden gem, and I couldn’t be more impressed! From the moment we walked in, the down-to-earth atmosphere set the tone for a great meal. The food was delicious and came out incredibly fast, yet didn’t compromise on quality (or quantity!).The service was attentive without being overbearing, making us feel right at home. On top of that, they have a full bar with a great selection. If you’re looking for a fantastic dining experience off the beaten path, this is the place to be. Five stars all around!

Burgers: 9/10
Cod horseshoe: 8/10
Corn fritters: 10/10
Overall: highly recommended!

While out for a drive we stopped in for lunch because we'd heard good things. We were not disappointed. This is a great local dive and diner. Unlike many diners, this was very clean and not musty smelling. The atmosphere was vintage yet authentic. We asked for recommendations and the very helpful server mentioned the burger and cod horseshoe were excellent. They were. We also ordered corn fritters and were they a treat! I would definitely recommend this for lunch and I'm sure dinner would be even better!

I thought it was a very nice place. The dimly lit atmosphere was comfortable and the staff was friendly. We were on our way home from a long hot day of softball and felt very comfortable there although we were under dressed. I think it can be a spot for a nice dinner out or some drinks and appetizers. Our food was very good. Panco chicken sandwich, chicken strips, fries, fried sweet corn fritters and a filet sandwich. A very nice surprise and enjoyable experience.

Had fish and chips, cole slaw and a chocolate martini; all good! But, oh man, those corn fritters were the best!!! I loved the atmosphere, except for the acoustics; a bit hard to hear my family's conversation. But, I will be going back 😊

Out for a drive to enjoy the fall colors and stopped in for some corn fritters!!!! YUM!!! Tried the pumpkin ones, too. They're good, but nothing beats the OG!

The food selections are much broader than in the past, and portions are well sized. Owners are a little gruff with patrons.
