We’ll be closed at the Railyard this evening. But open rain or shine tomorrow for Picklepalooza!
‼️UPDATE FOR TODAY AND TOMORROW ‼️
With the radar showing non stop rain and even storms for later this evening while we’re open - The Railyard will be CLOSED this evening - July 31st!
Tomorrow is also showing rain all day, but as of now mostly light sprinkles. So unless the weather for tomorrow turns into storms - we will remain OPEN for tomorrow, August 1st. Which means the PICKLEPALOOZA event is rain or shine!!
Please stay tuned for any other weather/closure related updates via our social medias.
We appreciate everyone’s kindness and support as we’ve all had to navigate through such tough weather this season! We truly appreciate it 💛

It’s an absolutely perfect morning for brunch here at The Railyard - Springfield, IL! And we have two brunch specials for you to look forward to when you arrive:
Chicky Biscuit - our coop fried chicken w/ house strawberry red pepper jam sandwiched between a scratch made buttermilk biscuit. These biscuits were made using organic flour, grass fed butter, & coconut sugar.
Coop Country Potatoes - our fried smashed potatoes topped with our chopped fried chicken & scratch made sausage breakfast gravy! And our gravy is naturally gluten free! So if you request your fried chicken to be GF - then you have a great Gf brunch option here!
