Pancakes were excellent. Service and food was very quick. Eggs cooked perfectly. Corned beef hash was not house made but still great and cooked slightly crispy how I like it. Very glad I stopped in while here for work. Will be back !

If I choose to drive to or return from work on Highway 67, I end up passing by Valley Country Cafe each trip. I used to take this route more frequently and never noticed their large red sign from the road. This cafe came up in a recent Google search for breakfast in the Quad Cities for me, so I decided to seek them out for a nice Saturday morning meal. From the appearance of their sign, I expected Valley to be an older, hole in the wall type joint. The sign has that sort of "I've been here for a long time and am an established part of this community" look. I probably shouldn't pre-judge, because the interior is definitely well kept up and modern looking. The floors are a shiny wood laminate throughout the dining area. The ceiling is a 2 foot square drop ceiling with a combination of florescent fixtures, a few large chandeliers in the center of the space, and black geometric suspended fixtures along the periphery above the booths. Tables fill the large dining room, with a modestly sized fireplace at the north end of the space. It all comes together to feel like a large modern breakfast restaurant, but has the distinct feeling of something unique to the area. It was warm, quiet, and relaxing. I liked it. I chose the Hobo Skillet with scrambled eggs and sourdough toast. This particular skillet ingredients included onions, green peppers, and sausage, with hash browns forming the potato base and cheddar cheese melted over the top. I enjoyed it thoroughly - the eggs were fluffy and paired well with the toast, the vegetables were well cooked and seasoned, and the sausage was in little discrete chunks that mixed well with the other ingredients. The only thing I would have liked more with this was crispier hash browns, but there was sufficient crispiness to contrast with the rest of the dish. The waitress was very kind and attentive throughout my visit. She refilled my drink promptly as I was running low and had my skillet to me within minutes of ordering. I'd definitely come back here on the way to work in the future for a solid breakfast. I'm glad I found the location and took the time to visit - it is truly a gem worth trying along Highway 67. Thanks, Valley Country Cafe!

Stopped in for some breakfast and got a burger instead! I went with the Jackhammer Burger with the salad bar. Good food, friendly service. I've been here before but this is my first time leaving a review. Would definitely stop in again.

Amazing atmosphere, service, staff, and food. My wife and I, and kids on occasion, will visit at least one, sometimes twice, a month for breakfast. The food is great and delicious, and there is always plenty of it. Valley Country is a great spot and I highly recommend stopping by and getting some breakfast. Meat Lover's Skillet..., and I am getting hungry again just thinking about it.
