About
The Fox Lake station is the end of the line for the trains to and from Chicago. Many a traveler has begun or finished their journey at the Whistlestop Cafe with a cup of coffee, a home-style breakfast, a satisfying lunch, or a slice of homemade pie.
Founded in 1996 and close to the train station, the Whistlestop provides great food in a casual, train-theme diner. Neighbors from around the corner and friends from miles away enjoy our comfortable environment and friendly service.
Our delicious breakfast and lunch items are served all day. We offer many popular dishes and sometimes modern specials with a twist. Check out our tantalizing menu. We are proud of our homemade pies and mouth-watering ham. You can order these for any occasion or holiday!
