The Broadview was a 24-hour restaurant attached to the now closed America's Best Value Inn on Main St. in Galesburg, Illinois.
You could get a lot of greasy food there, even if you were drunk. Millie, a former waitress at the Broadview with the word "love" tattooed on her knuckles, often gave drunk students a hard time, yet was a delightful contribution to the local spectacle of the restaurant itself. There also was some karaoke going down if you were there at the right time. All the fun is sadly gone seemingly forever.
