“Family owned Chicago area restaurant donates thousands of meals to Veterans amid coronavirus pandemic.” Fox News Chicago correspondent Matt Finn reports.
Starting on day one of restaurant closures in Illinois, we dedicated our efforts primarily towards serving/delivering donated meals to as many local Veterans, Seniors, and any other community members in need.
To this point we are incredibly proud to have served more than 100,000 complimentary meals! We expect meals to increase to each week as we add more “bulk meal deliveries” to Senior homes, Veteran communities, and first responders.
Please check out more info below, along with links to the media coverage our initiative has attracted and a link to our GoFund Me page. Our initial plan was to entirely self fund this project, but with the increased attention came the need to serve tens of thousands more than anticipated.
Being able to extend our reach is a blessing, but of course comes with the call for additional funds. The community stepped up and answered the call! Because of this, we have been able to keep the initiative going even as the “shelter in place” order has been extended. While Country House and its management continue to absorb most of the associated costs, all help is meaningful and has an impact: Whether it’s through volunteering, sponsoring a specific organization to support/feed, a monetary donation, or via kind thoughts and prayers!!!
Any questions or if you are interested in supporting this initiative in any way, call us at the Country House Restaurant (708) 389-4618 or feel free to email anytime: Countryhouserestaurant@comcast.net. Thank you all for the continued, gracious, and inspiring support!

NOVEMBER 2020
The Country House Restaurant is launching a new effort to help struggling seniors and families over the holidays and they need your help. “$15 will cover a full meal delivered, microwavable and ready to re-heat to somebody’s door.” – Paul Boundas.
APRIL 2020

MARCH 2020
“A restaurant in south suburban Alsip is helping homebound senior citizens during the COVID-19 pandemic. Paul Boundas and his staff of cooks and waitresses at Country House Restaurant are taking matters into their own hands.”
SCHOOL FOODSERVICE
With today’s emphasis on unhealthy eating habits, obesity, and the long-term effects of early childhood and adolescent nutrition, we sought to make a difference. We found that by using fresh ingredients and little or no foods that are processed or pre-packaged, we are able to control our costs and offer these higher quality foods at lower prices.
“When the governor ordered restaurants across Illinois to stop dining-in service last week because of coronavirus, Paul Boundas did not want to stop feeding people. So the co-owner of Country House Restaurant in southwest suburban Alsip went to Facebook. He asked folks to tell him about seniors and vulnerable families who might have trouble getting food in the coming days.”
Even Ted Cruz gave us a shout out…
THE RESTAURANT
We are a family owned, independent restaurant that has been in business for over thirty years.
The restaurant was started with the idea of providing the highest quality, freshest homemade food in a family environment with affordable prices. On top of this we have always placed great value on strengthening the community around us.
Catering
By catering to our existing customers as well as local organizations, we quickly grew into one of the biggest catering companies on the South Side.
