About this business
What started as a neighborhood tavern in Naplate 1941 by Hank Mucci, was bought by the Allen family in 1975. After outgrowing the original location, the "Barn" became available in 1985. After it's short life as a smorgasbord in this converted dairy barn created by Jack Hillard it was bought by the family. "Hank's Fine Food" then made the move & became "Hank's Farm". Our families have continued to grow & improve the restaurant & grounds. We strive to bring excellent food in a warm & rustic atmosphere. Enjoy....

Sunday Brunch Hanks has the best Sunday brunch in the Illinois Valley. It may appear somewhat pricey, but you get value for your dollars. My wife and I used to go once a month when we lived in Ottawa, and now less often. The chocolate cake, made in-house, is to die for!
Hank's farm is very cute -- especially the outside. It's fun to see the peacocks and all the animals & birds. The "barn" is quaint and the pond is very pretty. The food, however, is ordinary at best. It tastes like restaurant supply portions that have just been heated up. There is no such thing as a fresh vegetable, only canned or frozen. The salad bar is uninteresting -- iceberg lettuce from a bag, salads full of mayonnaise, & a huge block of some very bland cheese that is dry on the edges, & all hacked up by people cutting... read more
It was a wonderful experience. The food was good and service was great. We also were really impressed with the atmosphere. Have made plans to go back.
Hanks is, and has been, our favorite area restaurant for many years. My wife and I are 60. We especially like the salad-bar, which you can sample at nominal price. The variety of salads, cheese, bread there is changed daily and is always prepared with a "down-home" taste. There is also a very good variety of Entree's available, with their specialty being Italian food. I particularly like The Prime Rib....the taste, and tenderness of the Meat is mouth-watering!! Some other favorites of the local clientel are Chicken or Veal P... read more
Great food at a great price! I had the seafood ravioli on a first date from match.com with a WONDERFUL LADY from Ottawa. Hanks has a plentiful salad bar and friendly people! We will be most definitely be back on our one year anniversary of dating in early December.
Hanks Farm Restaurant is a great place to gather with your co workers or your family as my co workers and i go there occasionally to eat some great food and have a good time and the staff there are really friendly and helpful
