Located outside Historic Abilene, Kansas is The Brookville Hotel famous for her down home cookin' served FAMILY STYLE. The Brookville Hotel was originally located in Brookville, Kansas and has since been relocated to Abilene in a rebuilt replica of the once well noted hotel. The fine service in a clean diningroom's the same. The FOOD's the same.
The atmoshere's freshened up. Please, join me for a tour.
During the week that my sister, niece and grandniece stayed with us, my husband made reservations for a Family Style Chicken Fried Meal.
Reservations are suggested.
Well stocked Gift Shop.
Additional Diningrooms available.
After dining on chicken and the works, you can browse the facility.
Upstairs you'll find an Old Fashioned Livingroom and three bedrooms for viewing to get a feel for how things used to be.
You'll leave with your left over chicken and biscuits if there's any left.
After a short wait, you'll be greeted and seated in one of the Diningrooms where the food comes to you.
Family Style Menu and all you can eat.

A very nice evening spent at the Brookville. As we departed a Thunder Storm loomed in the distance which caught up with us as we returned home. All went well and we slept well that night.

Wow! Awesome post! Makes me hungry all over again. Their fried chicken is hard to beat, and I could make a meal out of the cream style corn. Nothing like (and you know how I love cream style corn).
Was a very enjoyable time.
What a charming hotel!!! The atmosphere is homey and the food sounds delicious! Thank you so much for sharing this lovely place:).

We drive by it every time we go to visit the kids and have never stopped. It's on our bucket list! Have a great weekend!
Sweet remembrances, I love the Brookville Hotel. The cream corn is sooo good. I still make their coleslaw recipe after about 35 years. Thanks for the memory.
HI D!!!!
Oh my goodness if I'm ever in Kansas again, I will want to stop at the Brookville Hotel!!! I love family style dinners at a restaurant!!!

Comfort food , for sure.And the blue toile wall paper, why i was right at home!
This is the kind of place I love to visit. You did a great job with your photos. I can just taste that crispy chicken and the mashed potatoes and gravy, and bisquits are TDF! I have to admit I've never seen a relish tray made up of those choices.
I've never been to Kansas, but I've been seeing some great reasons to visit there lately. Thanks for taking the time to take us with you on that trip. It sounds like a memorable occasion.
Did you bring home a doggie bag for us all? Scrumptuous, elegant, awesome ... love this post, Deanna.
TY for your reply today ... yes I do hope that our nation will thrive one day again & remain 'free' to enjoy ... it is very concerning what is taking place.
Have a wonderful & safe holiday weekend. TTFN ~Marydon
What a lovely place to stay and eat! Reminds me of a very popular place here in Frankenmuth Michigan, that has served chicken dinners family style for 150 years.
Michele and the kids sure would have enjoyed that had they been able to come up in July while I was in Israel.
Dear Ones, The Brookville was mighty fine and we had a great time.
Blessings,
