Shivers Frozen Custard & Coffee
Ice cream shop
👍👍 Shivers is the best! I drive all the way from Caseyville at least once a week. I love that they have different flavors every day. It is so fresh and I love all of the chunks My favorite is Chocolate Cream Pie. Not too mention Godfrey has the cheapest gas around. It's cheaper than St. Louis and you h...

Audubon Center at Riverlands
Nature preserve
👍👍 We went there on Monday, unaware it is closed on Mondays. We walked one of the trails. It is paved and very easy to walk. The grounds are well kept. There is a neat ramp that leads to an observation deck overlooking the river.

Post Commons
Coffee shop
👍👍 I was checking out Alton because a co-worker recommended visiting the nearby state park. However, since I started my day super late, it was getting darker when I arrived in Alton. So I ended up checking out this coffee shop instead, and boy, I was so surprised at how huge this place was. I guess thi...

Morrison's Irish Pub
Irish pub
😠 If I could select a negative number of stars, I would. I went to this bar on St. Patrick’s Day thinking, hey, no better place than an Irish Pub to enjoy a Guinness on St. Pat’s. I was so wrong. We arrived at the bar at about 9:45, they closed at 11 that night. I was with a friend who was visiting me...

Drinks were amazing, baked goods couldn't have been better, as well as the chia seed parfait. Do your self a favor and check out this plac...

👍👍 Today I drove 22 miles from St. Louis to Godfrey, Illinois to visit the last remaining Mister Donut in North America! Founded in 1956 by the brother in law of the man who started Dunkin' Donuts, the last remaining shops in America and Canada all closed around 2006 or converted to Dunkin. Mister Donu...

State Street Market
Restaurant
👍👍 Review #2, and it's just as great and even better than the 1st. This beautiful, amazing little restaurant is hands down the best place in Alton, IL, and the surrounding area. On Valentines Day, they offered a five course romantic reservation, only dinner experience. They offered 2 time slots 530 and...
