Hey, Illinoisans – wanna hear something sweet? Good, because I’ve found what might be THE sweetest restaurant in the history of restaurants… literally. Better still, bring the kids and watch those little faces light up as they enter the door and immerse themselves in a Willy Wonka-style sugar-based paradise. This family-friendly restaurant in Illinois is known to the world as Sugar Factory, and with two delicious locations in the Prairie State, the whole family’s sure to love this one. Of all the best places to eat in Illinois, this one just might be the sweetest.
Welcome to Sugar Factory, an incredible restaurant with two locations in our little corner of the Midwest
This amazing restaurant is so much MORE than "just" a restaurant; it's a tour-de-force of brilliantly-colored fun for all ages. Oh, and of course the desserts are to die for... I'll get to those in a moment.
From the moment you walk in, you'll be amazed at just how colorful we're talking.
I mean, the kids' burgers come on brightly-colored buns alongside a rubber ducky the kiddos get to take home. But no worries - the menu is filled top-to-bottom with delectable items - many of which are quite beautifully presented.

So, if brilliant buns aren't quite your thing, don't worry.
It's not just the desserts that rock - it's the whole menu, which has a surprisingly high number of totally-delish items to choose from. There's something here for every member of the family - kids, or kids at heart.
My favorite part of this entire thing isn't the decor or the entrees, though - it's the absolutely AMAZING dessert selection.
From incredibly huge, ridiculously unique milkshakes decorated with cookies, candy and whipped topping to outrageously wonderful sundaes and more - you might want to leave more room for dessert than dinner for this one.
No matter what you order, though, your experience is bound to be summed up beautifully in just one word:
