We stopped for lunch while driving through, it was busy but the hostess seated us right away and got us water. There was a short wait and our server came and took our order. We had a salad, chicken fried steak with potatoes, and pie and it was everything you could hope for. Who would have through that a little mom and pop resteruaunt in Blackfoot ID would have the best restaurant tech for ordering and paying anyplace that I have visited.I will visit again when Im in the area.
This is a awesome place. Whenever my friend and I have Doctors appointments in Blackfoot we always stop and eat here.The food is amazing, the prices are very reasonable,the staff is friendly and the waitresses are always checking on us. My friend and I love their Cheesecake and Pumpkin pie. I would recommend this restaurant to all my friends
(Story) walked in on a Wednesday morning with the family. Quickly seated with a good amount of patrons enjoying their breakfast. Was greeted by a lovely steward, who promptly took our order. Wiz bang the beverages appeared and the next moment, breakfast was served. Good eats and pleasant atmosphere. The establishment was able to handle a large table that was adjacent with about 10 patrons. Food hit the spot. As we finished the nourishment, and i sipped the remainder of my coffee, our lovely steward informed my family that the bill was taken care of. Shocked and humbled, a great breakfast with the family on the first time visiting, yielded such a positive experience. Thank you to the patron who blessed us with a meal. Payed it forward to the wonderful restaurant and gesture that was shown to my family and I. Will be back for the bakery and to enjoy another meal. You set a standard with kindness, and of service to your patrons. Im happy to find a establishment with your principles.
The food was great. An Iron port is a must have. Very delicious. It tastes like black cherry dr. pepper without the caffeine. Also get it with whipped cream. The only hard thing I would say is that it is a little on the pricey side. If you can afford it though I would say give it a shot it wont disappoint.
The food is very good Fridays and Saturdays The waitresses never slow down. With that being said Tuesday through Thursday youll be waiting for your drinks your salad and refills
Is excellent food and service.. I would highly recommend is recommended.
Weve been here a handful of times and the food hasnt been that great but still wanted give them a chance. I like to order different menu items but havent found one thats really good. Ive heard a few people tell me they like it here, so Ive given it an honest try. People say the pie is good. I hate giving low reviews. Weve been served chili with hard beans and a soggy bread loaf ordered to go. Usually when this happens youre offered another dish or a dry loaf of bread. Nope, we were told sorry it turned out bad and heres the bill. On our last visit we stood by the door for several minutes in an almost empty diner to be seated. The employees were standing by a table next to the cashier and took a long time to notice we were there.
The food is good traditional American good. The atmosphere is homey.
They were very patient with me while I asked a lot of questions, and I appreciate that
The chicken fried steak was okay nothing special the mashed potatoes were mediocre no cream at all in them. The hot fudge cake was absolutely fantastic would definitely get that again. Our server was incredible considering we had 14 people and she stayed up on drinks and everything. Its definitely a good place to go and eat and have a good time.
Service was great, restaurant was clean, spacious and up to date. Good atmosphere. Everything I want in a sit down restaurant except the food... Breakfast food tasted average at best.
Amazing food! Great prices! Great, friendly staff! Super cute decor! I loved everything about this place! Daughter ordered mac and cheese and mashed potatoes. Neither one of realised the mashed potatoes came with brown gravy. She hates gravy. I made her try it anyway and prepared to scrape all the gravy off. She LOVED that brown gravy! If my 6 year old loves, it has to be good! For an extra 98 cents, I got my daughter ice cream. She chose Superman. I guess its the same as playdough ice cream. I had no idea what either of those where but my daughter said the ice cream was awesome! The service is fast! Like a little too fast. I had taken a literal two bites out of my clam chowder and my shrimp was brought out. But it was all so good! Also I forgot to take pictures! My bad! I have one of my clam chowder. We will be back! And next time Ill remember to take pictures! Lol
Good home style cooking, great prices and big portion sizes. Food and service was quick. Everything tasted great.
The service here is always excellent. I would argue that Homestead has the best quality of both food and service in Blackfoot.
Really cute place, nice a clean. The food was really good but kind of bland.
Food options were limited at 8pm because they were sold out. My steak (ordered medium) was very well done. Waitress offered to order a new one and this time it was medium well. The waitress spent 15 minutes talking about college with a booth across the isle rather than grabbing the items we requested. The only saving grace was their yummy fresh cut fries.
Absolutely love this place! The food has been great evertime I have gone. Staff are friendly and attentive. Oh and if you love cinnamon rolls you must order one here. Huge and delicious!!! The food is cooked how I ask. When I want a rare steak I get a rare steak. Thats hard to find in a lot of restaurants.
I cannot believe it has taken me 20 years to try this place again. Beyond impressed, good food at a great price. And our service was great- I wish I could leave her name to give her credit.
Excellent service; Excellent fish-n-chips; inexpensive, so much so, that I thought the bill was incorrect so I asked the waitress about it... she said it was correct. ;great atmosphere.
This was only my second visit in 4 years. The first visit in 2017 didnt leave much to be desired. Todays visit was okay, but not great. It wasnt our first choice but restaurants were packed and we were able to get a table here quickly. Customer service was good. I ordered the Bacon Burger with grilled onions. I didnt get the tomatoes or the grilled onions. The burger patty was overcooked and dry. The fries were soft and lukewarm. My child also ordered the bacon cheeseburger; she was also missing the tomato. Although her burger was a bit better, still dry, but not overcooked - it actually still had some pink. I did inform the waitress, she got me the tomatoes and grilled onions. When I mentioned the burger was dry all I got was, oh, okay.
Started pretty normal for a sit down restaurant. They immediately brought us water. A few minutes later they came and got our drink order. By 15 minutes in, they had taken our order. However, we were already out of drinks and the waitress was in too much of a hurry to wait for us to ask for anything. For the next 45 minutes we sat there and the waitress didnt even pass our table. At the 45 minute mark she brought us our food, again too much in a hurry to notice our empty drinks and to allow us to ask for anything. 5 minutes later I was able to flag her down after she offered the table next to us drinks. Took 7 minutes after that for her to allow another waitress to bring us our drink refills. The food was mediocre at best. By the end of the visit we were just so frustrated we probably wont eat here again.
I showed up late to the party, no one asked if I wanted anything until the food got to the table. The fries were OK, not great.. but the rest of the food looked good
Great 👍 fresh peach 🍑 pie and a good cup of joe.
I grew up in Blackfoot and it is incredible how far this place has come! The food and service remain impeccable and I so appreciate the feeling I get every time I go!
One of the better places for a well prepared & served meal attended to by top notch customer service. Family owned and operated for years.
Love home cooking from a restaurant at home. The drive thru is great
Probably one of the best ran restaurants. All the team members worked together to get things done. The manager was friendly and checking up to make sure things were good. Waitress didnt let drinks get empty. Amazing. Great management!
Hot turkey sandwhich was just ok. The mashed potatoes tasted like they used instant potatoes with boiled water only, tasted like No milk and No butter was used. Disappointed.
We came in for breakfast, since Blackfoot is seriously lacking in any reasonable restaurants. Unfortunately, this place did not restore our faith in Blackfoot dining.The server has an attitude when we came in. Oh well. I wasnt planning on eating her, so I took little notice of her, and she did become nicer as the time progressed.The food was mediocre at best. Nothing really bad, but nothing good as well.And, worse of all, the food came out medium warmish. Blah.We didnt say anything because we were hungry and tired.We will have to continue searching for a reasonable place to eat in Blackfoot and justify whatever we spend on food in this little city.
The service was great but the food wasn’t good at all. By the time I got my chicken fried steak and baked potato it was cold and had 0 flavor. Save your money and go somewhere else
Great waitress.Need Need more selection on menu. The food is not hot 40 %of the time .
Our waitress did not get our order right and served only 1 cup of coffee. We Was disappointed today.
Good food good service reasonable prices
The front of the menu said founded in 1986 and I dont think the menu has changed since. The menu looked bland and boring so I went with a hamburger and the bun was dry and flaky, the patty looked like a frozen patty and was way overcooked and dry, the bacon was burned, and I got literally 3 small pieces of grilled onion. Only two people in my party of 8 liked their food one is elderly and the other was a 6 year old who ordered chicken strips.Will never go here again
Good quick service and very nice breakfast.
Great atmosphere and good food. Close to lodging
The first time we went here, it was primarily because my Grandma loved it so much. Several other times, it was simply just ok. Because it was our Grandmothers favorite spot for down home cookin, we go back. Food is pretty good, but maybe just a bit higher priced. Still, the service was quite remarkable, and the atmosphere welcoming.
It was good. Really good
Everytime we have to travel up to blackfoot Id. for one of our doctor specialists after our appointment we stop at this cozy little homemade restaurant to eat. Its so comfortable and quiet with homemade soups, rolls salads and much more sandwiches and homemade pies. We call this our little couples place. You should try it sometime you wont regret it.
Service is AMAZING! The food was absolutely delicious!
Mediocre and overrated. Country fried chicken is a breaded hamburger patty. Hash browns not browned. Staff is very nice and place is clean. Traveling potato out.
Service was fair having only one waitress and bus boy. Traveling and loving breakfast this is possibly the only place that put lunchmeat ham in an omelet. It was weird to see a flat ham and cheese omelet.English muffin looks like it came out if the bag. Not toasted. Wouldn’t recommend this place.
Had breakfast. Very nice and efficient .
Had a great lunch. Only complaints I have is there country fried steak wasn’t worth writing home about. It was bland and tough but all over it was great I enjoyed everything about the place
The food was overpriced, the portions were lacking and I find the pie which they present add their claim to Fame to be mediocre at best. The overall vibe was that theyre the only real game in town and they know it, so why bother letting up with quality or value
They have a great steak sandwich.
If you are in Blackfoot go here for Food staff is friendly and the food is delicious
Good food and friendly service.
Good food, love the soups and pie! Waitress seemed to be having an off day but was still very nice
Good meat & potatoes, chicken fried steak was great 👍. Service was excellent 👌
I was recently in Blackfoot, we need to get some lunch, I had eaten the restaurant several times years ago so we walked into the restaurant and everybody was very friendly there seemed to be a good amount of people having lunch we were seated and were waiting immediately we ordered our lunch and the amount of food that we got was overwhelming my friend and I shared a salad and a croissant sandwich and neither of us could even finish our half the waitress was absolutely wonderful she separated the croissant and the salad in separate dishes and brought them to us my husband had a bacon cheeseburger he ate about half of it food is excellent service was excellent they have a great variety of choices highly recommend this restaurant. It seems to me that restaurants have gone downhill since covid, I have a couple favorite places I like to go and the last time I visited one of my favorites it was very disappointing I live in Idaho falls and people are just not getting the same quality of food but homestead I rate them a 10 plus. 😋😋
The foods good but a five oz steak option for breakfast should offer a ten oz for the more physically active working person but its all good
We went there at 7pm and they were out of baked and mashed potatoes. I ordered the chicken breast dinner and the chicken was pretty stingy. Last time we went I ordered the chicken burger and the piece of chicken only covered maybe a third of the bun. I will not order anything chicken here again. Will be awhile before we go here again.
Always good. Best ice tea in town
Very delicious! Grab a burger and fries and pie! Served timely and the wait staff was great!
Always great service and good food
Slow service. The blandest food I have ever been served. If you dont mind food with no flavor, this is the place to go.
We visited here while I was gone for the Christmas holiday. It was a very pleasant experience. The food was delicious, and they had a great selection.
Service was great. Food came out quickly, wasnt hot, hash browns cold. Disappointing
Great food and Family-friendly atmosphere.
Amazing food, the staff are very well prepared and know what theyre doing.
Quality food and great service. One of Blackfoots best.
Clean, friendly and quick service. Yummy fries made from real potatoes. My husband really enjoyed his burger. I had the French dip. It was ok. Would have been better with thinner sliced beef and on a toasted baguette rather than a hoagie roll.
Service was fast, friendly, and the food was amazing! We stop every year on our way through.
It was VERY busy. I had to keep asking for our waitress for service!
Service was excellent. Food was good. Thanks for asking
It was very good food service and all around great. Price wasnt unreasonable other.
Best meal weve had since we left the east coast on our trip out west. Everything was great!
Great food, friendly service. Enjoyed an excellent fish sandwich.
Friendly service, pretty good food. Quiet laid back place to eat.
Our waitress was so nice, the food wasnt good and overly seasoned.
The waitress was not vaccinated and did not respect distancing. The food was cold. It was an unnerving experience.
Good food, great service.
Very nice and awesome workers. They make you feel at home and relax. Food was great 👍 😋
Like this place a lot. Tonight they were a little short on staff. Salad bar was good!
I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich what a joke. The chicken was very small only covered HALF the bun. Sent it back and left. Dont order CHICKEN here.
Excellent prices and the food was great!
Great place. We followed the locals yo the best place in Blackfoot. Clean. Fast friendly service. Great food. If I lived here itd be a steady diet.
Its a good place for breakfast. They are usually short handed so slow on coffee. Food is good, although can be a little pricey on some menu items.
My omlet was very good...the hash browns were less desirable..not cooked all the way through and they were not busy so no excuse there!
Quick, friendly service. Drive up window now and pay at the table is nice.
Service great. Great tasting food. Biscuits and gravy good. Can cook over easy eggs perfectly.
Prompt!!!service. food is spot on. had breakfast on the table in about 8 minutes.Very respectable atmosphere, industry standard prices. Ill be back for the fresh pies.
We are traveling through to Island Park and stopped for lunch. The food was GREAT, the service was GREAT and the price was awesome. We are going to stop on our way home too!
Took an hour and twenty minutes to get our breakfast. We sat first and every table that came in after got served before us. The food was cold and the service was awful. I don’t recommend this place. If I could give negative stars I would.
The cheesecake is delicious 😋 😍 😊 👌
Food was good. Really good cheddar bacon soup with veggies and it wasnt SALTY this time like its been in the past. Hopefully you changed cooks.
Homestead has great food and service! Always enjoy going!
The food was very bland and very expensive for small portions. I have been here a number of times and always had the same results. They even water down the ranch dressing. However the staff here are ver friendly and attended to our group very closely.
Poorly made. Heard great things but it was sadly disappointing. I only had the omlet (rubbery eggs) and chicken fried steak which tasted awful. Could have been put together better. Sorry guys!
Great western omelet. Friendly, fast, and affordable.
I’m pretty disappointed with Homestead lately. It’s really going downhill with the food quality and service. Tonight’s salad was frozen and had a few rotten lettuce leaves, they didn’t bring any bread, the prime rib was completely cold, they mixed up both my order and my husband’s order of potatoes/gravy, the “country gravy” was really leftover sausage gravy from breakfast, then AFTER we’d paid for our finished dinner, the waitress brought out two rolls (our party was three people) and exclaimed she was sorry....tried to apologize (as we watched bread being served at two other tables...why the difference?). Additionally, every time we’ve visited the restaurant in the past last year, they’ve been out of something we’ve ordered and we had to choose alternatives. Homestead used to be my very favorite place to eat and take family members/friends. I’m so sad!
Our kids played a football game in Snake River we looked up restaurants that served patty melts. Looked like Homesteads was the go to place, it closed at 9pm per the internet hours as well as hours posted on the door. We drove there, got there at 8:20 waited to be seated, after several minutes a customer let us know they were no longer serving people, after another minute or so a waitress came and let us know they were no longer serving people. If you stop serving customers before your posted closing time you should change your closing time to that time. Customer service should be a priority. Happy to give our business to Rupes.
Coffee and pie was good, but it is a pricey little restaurant
My family and I enjoy this place. It is one of the best places in town if not the best.
Good place to eat
