Dear customers & friends,
For 40 years now. Dandy Inn has been the local hangout in Fairview Heights for those looking for a fun family friendly restaurant/bar. We have been blessed by so many great regulars and friends over the years. We truly appreciate every single person that has walked through our doors and have supported us over the years!
It is with a heavy heart that I must inform you that we will be closing our doors. Our last day open to the public will be on Sunday, Jan 15th, 2017. So for the remaining time, please stop in, say hello, grab one last cold one, get an order of your favorite wings, and enjoy the Dandy experience with us!
It has been an amazing journey all of these years in business! We have made so many friends and have seen a generation of young men and woman who started to come in with their parents now bringing in their own little kids!
