 | 	- We're local to Mahomet, so we go to JT Walkers fairly often.  There aren't too many other dine-in restaurants in town.  The food is decent for a decent price.  The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed, clean and attractive but not fancy.  
The downstairs is the restaurant and the upstairs is the bar, but there's a bar downstairs and food upstairs, so you won't lose out either way.  Kids fit right in at the restaurant. There are a small number of tables down the sides, with a couple of long bench tables in the center, near a fireplace. You can watch closed caption tvs hanging on the walls while you eat.
There are daily specials, which bring the price down a little. Some are good.  Some aren't as good.  The fried chicken has a very sweet coating that isn't to our taste. The adult mac and cheese is terrific when made correctly, with bacon and shrooms. The ribeye steak sandwich is also a hit.  Hamburgers, too, are good and made with a variety of toppings. Choose your entree based on what this kind of neighborhood bar spot does well. Salads are so-so, and as are many of the sides, like the roasted corn relish. But onion rings are delish. A lot of the food quality depends on whether the kitchen has a good night or not -- sometimes things are prepared correctly and sometimes they are not.
Not that long ago, JT Walkers added a Sunday breakfast option. They had no toast / bagel / English muffin to go with -- no bread. The rest was so-so.  We didn't try again.
