Sharp’s Drive Inn

Drove way out of our way from HWY 64 due to great reviews and it was CLOSED Saturday 3:30 detoured all though town getting ready for a fall festival… what a mess! Leaving hungry

BEST little hole in the wall in Mt. Vernon!
Every time I come home to Illinois to visit I stop here for their breaded tenderloin sandwiches. They are so delicious. Its a small little place, you could almost miss it if you aren’t looking for it. Its on the side of the road across from Hucks gas station and everyone just really needs to go and check out their specials. I know they have chili dogs and fries and all kinds of comfort foods.
You can all ahead to have your food ready to pick up or just sit outside at one of the picnic tables and wait the short wait to deliciousness. Its one of those places where you just walk up to the window and order. No hassle and the lady who took my order last time was very friendly. Se chatted with my grandma a little, which was really nice since she doesn’t get into town too often. Great food and great customer service. Try it. Thank me later.
