About Cornerstone Family Restaurant

Michael and Donna Sweeney became owners of Cornerstone Family Restaurant in 2000 when they and friends from their church, cleaned and renovated an exsisting restaurant space at Lakeview Shopping Center. This original location with 60 seats quickly became a popular gathering place for the small community of Eureka, Illinois. The location also had a basement seating area where larger groups could eat together but with the limitations of stairs, it was not accommodating to the senior clientel. So in 2002, Mike and Donna decided to floor-over the stairs to create additional main-level seating and increased the capacity to 70 seats with 2 larger tables. As the years passed and business grew, it became apparent that some of Mike and Donna’s orginal vision for the business could not be met in the Lakeview location. Groups of more than 8 people could not dine together and even larger groups could not be accommodated at all. Also, the doorways and restrooms were not accommodating to handicapped customers and the parking could not be increased. So, Mike and Donna began to work on plans for their new location. From the time they took those first steps towards building the new restaurant, God’s divine plan and provision was at work, opening and closing doors of opportunity. Amazing people like Sally Hanley (Economic Development Council) and Gary Schoof (Heartland Bank) came alongside and provided critical direction and encouragement. Finally in July 2007, the new location at 1101 West Center Street, was opened.
