Eureka Depot — Restaurant in Eureka

We stayed 1 night in Eureka as we traveled the length of the old Lincoln Highway from west to east. Our AirBnb, the Old Collonade Hotel, had brochures and discount coupons for local businesses and the Eureka Depot was one of the places that was mentioned. We love to shop at small local businesses when we travel, so we stopped at the Depot to grab some coffee and sweets before we headed out of town. I forgot to bring my discount coupon with me, but this place smelled so good, I didn't even care. We got Snickers lattes and brown butter cinnamon rolls to go. I just wanna say it's a good thing we live in Illinois because if this place was closer to us, we'd over-indulge, for sure! This place is wonderful and we were SO glad we stopped. I will have dreams about that brown butter cinnamon roll, no doubt about it! Whoever that baker is really knows what they...

What an excellent find in Eureka! We pulled onto a side street to park our motorhome in the shade for a break, and happened to park in front of this delightful store.

I am so glad we stumbled onto this place while passing...

One of the few active, functioning restaurants in Eureka. It is in a beautifully restored dance hall from the late 1800's. You order at counter, take a number and they bring it to you.

Also got cinnamon rolls and cookies to go. They were very good at breakfast in camp. If you are in or near Eureka and want a good breakfast or...
