⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Sidney Classic That Never Disappoints! If you’re looking for a taste of history served with a side of hometown charm, The Spot Restaurant - Sidney, OH is an absolute must-visit. You can really feel the legacy of this place, which has been around since Spot Miller first parked his chuckwagon here back in 1907! The Food I went for the Big Buy with cheese, and it was exactly what a classic burger should be—juicy, flavorful, and hit the spot perfectly. I paired it with their onion rings, which were golden, crispy, and easily some of the best I've had in a long time. Next time, I’m definitely going to try the Presidential Bush Burger! The Famous Pies You cannot leave this place without trying the pie. I was lucky enough to sample a few varieties: * Apple & Cherry: Perfectly flaky c

Classic burger and fries with a few other options on the menu and their famous homemade pies. A part of your childhood that still remains today! Always a pleasure.

Was really disappointed in how this place has gone downhill. The service was not great and the people were not friendly at all. When I asked for a recommendation of a pie, the girl seemed annoyed, made a suggestion, then said, "But I don't know, I have never had it". The only person that was helpful and friendly was the gentleman who was clearing the tables. The food was mediocre compared to the last time I was there. The pecan pie was difficult to muster through. It was dry and tasted old (imagine freezer burnt AND freeze dried at the same time). The cherry pie was edible but nothing to write home about. My family grew up in Sydney and always ate at The Spot. We came back here for a funeral. They were even disappointed in the quality of the food and service. My mother even stated it wa

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Chris Hatley · Nov 2024

I don’t hardly give any bad reviews for restaurants because I own one. With that being said we were excited to visit the spot as we always do when we are in the area for the holidays. We came around 230pm and was greeted with rolled eyes from from the front service lady. Then followed with her saying I was about to go on break but now I can’t because we came in to eat. Honestly if my front of house said that to a customer , they would be walking out the door. The food was ok, and of course no strawberry pie. I was really disappointed on this visit enough to leave a review. When your employees set the tone for the rest of the visit, it can make for a great experience or a bad one.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Tyler Glover · Nov 2024

This is the “least good” of the historic burger places I’ve been to in Western Ohio (Kewpee, Hamburger Wagon, Crabill’s, etc.) There is a charm to these other restaurants but The Spot just felt run down. The Big Buy burger had tiny patties on it and the buns were stale, but the flavor profile was good. The service wasn’t overly friendly. That being said, the fries were some of the best I’ve had… they had a light batter on them and were hot and fresh. I won’t go out of my way to come back here again.
