“My family and I just got done with our dinner here, this is usually are go to Thursday spot. The food was excellent as always, service was great - although, they usually are slammed, as in, every table is full from 4pm-7pm, get there early or get there later, because it is crazy at that time. All around great experience always“

“Kindly note that this is an adult wine and cocktail bar with carefully curated small plates, catering exclusively to a 21+ crowd. Great owners, staff, libations and eats. Served by Madison last night who was just delightful. No dress code but folks seem to take it up a notch from brewery wear.“

“I remember you Laura. You and your partner walked in while we were super busy. Maybe you didn't notice our heads down in the well making cocktail after cocktail after cocktail for the numerous satisfied guests. Each cocktail takes several minutes to construct. Our other guests seemed fine with the wait. While you seem more content with being a keyboard warrior. Service is something we take great pride in Laura, your lack of patience could really use some work. Oh, the elevator situated right next to the stairs may have helped get you up and down, sorry you didn't see it.“

Taylor was great to work with setting everything up for the party and Cara was phenomenal at the party ensuring all of our 40+ guests had a drink in their hand and full plates! I highly recommend having your party there and stopping in for some delicious food!“

“Food was really good. Drinks were very reasonably priced as well as the pizza we had. Joe came out and asked us how everything was. Loni was really nice and made sure if we needed something that we were well taken care of. I love the fact that they kept it true to how it was when originally built but with modern upgrades. Will for sure come back next time I go to visit my brother.
Update. Came back today, great food and drinks. Staff super friendly and helpful.“

“One of the best dive bars if not the best in Lockport. It's a known biker bar, serves popcorn, has miller high life. What else do you need? Place has plenty of character and characters inside. I don't know where the "best bloody mary's" came from. This is 100% false, do not expect a good bloody, maybe in the 90s but not anymore. Overall, great spot, great dive.“

“I loved it! Its in a corner spot was able to find parking! Gypsy was our bartender she made some awesome drinks! small spot but theres a lot to do you can sit at the bar or at a table! food truck outside has delicious tacos
bathroom was nice and clean
no complaints here! definitely coming back to try more drinks“

“We love The Nest Bar & Grill and want to share how great the food & service has been lately. Every server has been providing phenomenal service, the chef always provides amazing meals & managers Eric & Phil are always making sure everything is great! Great food & they all work as a team!! Great job Nest Bar & Grill!“

“Best Five Star Dive Bar in Town!!!“

“Low key bar, not a big place but cozy. They have slot machines but no pool tables ? Bartender was very attentive to our needs and came over to chat while I was playing my favorite slot machine, she also enjoyed playing the same game. I know this is random but the Women's bathroom door was the cutest ever. Outside looks like a small cramped but nope. It was surprisingly big and clean“

“Always a good time .. good food great regulars and Terry actually cares about the place.“

“Great people great atmosphere“

“Beautiful people, love the skid marks“

“Great atmosphere a friend of mine dragged me there and even though I am not much of a drinker and wasn't in a drinking mood they manage to warm me up to the idea with a corona on the house and how can I refuse it at that point it was cleared they ware more than just a bar I highly recommend this place great people tending towards customer service.“

“Ummmmm, I do not remember being here. I must have had one hell of a time because I do not remember being here at all. I do not drink too often, so if I was here and did drink, that would explain a lot.I guess I had a great time. I hope I did not cause any trouble. If I did, I apologize. It's those dang Coronas and tequila mixers that do it every time!I hope I kept my clothes on and did not swing from any chandeliers upside down naked.If I did, I made it home safe, and thank you for not calling the police on me. If I offended anyone, sorry.5 stars and great digs!“

“Stopped in a couple days ago for the first time. Place is nice, & food is great! Tracy was behind the bar and I think she’s Awesome. Great at her job, and she made the night a lot of fun. Great experience.“

“We booked a room because we were attending a wedding on the premises. We got upstairs to check in and at least 6 guests were ahead of us in line, despite the line, the check in process was quick and efficient. There were 2 desk attendants and as the line grew and 3rd came out to help. All 3 were pleasant, smiling and very helpful. The room was very nice, spacious, immaculate and comfortable. The bathroom was also spacious. We would definitely stay again.“

“Aaron the bartender is great! Thank you! So friendly, so kind. The drinks are super fun / cute, and I especially recommend the pina colada. The service is excellent, the vibe is very cute. Went on a Tuesday night around 9-10:30 - it was quiet which was nice, but livened up towards the end. The drinks could be a bit better which is why I gave 4 stars and not 5 - but I'll absolutely be back :)“

“If you're looking for a trendy place go somewhere else. If you're looking for a homey place, friendly face - enjoy , , , , , Ignore the other reviews as they have the BEST bartenders who will greet you with a smile every time. Their Wednesday night dinners during the summer are the bomb!!!“

“I stopped in and had a few drinks. The bartender was friendly, not a vast selection of hard alcohol, but they had the regular stuff. I asked for food, but no food was available. 2 pool tables, one dart machine, slot machines with a touch game, and iTunes. It was a small place with no table setting, only a bar, but it looked clean and cozy. The bartender seemed very relaxed.“

“The local craft beer selection is diverse enough to satisfy basically any beer fan. I loved the bacon and jalapeño mac and cheese, and I want to take bottles of the fried pickle dipping sauce home! The bartender Jim was very knowledgeable and handled a very busy bar extremely well. I'm looking forward to my next visit!“

“I don’t often post a review on here about a business or a person, however, City Tavern in Joliet has one of the best, kindest, most conscientious bartenders I know.. thank you Mike Monty.. Monty.. for always treating the patrons like you care about them!!! Cheers to you!! 🍺🍺🍺“

“This is the City Tavern, Located on West Jefferson Street & Midland Ave. Great place to get a ice cold beer, mixed drinks, some shots. Watch a Cubs, White Sox baseball games, Chicago Bears football game. Black Hawks hockey game, 9 big screen TV'S to watch your favorite teams & Pro sports games on. Quick customer service friendly service with a ????????.“

“Awesome bartenders. Cool spot. Bowling in the bar and slots 🙂“

“Been at Big Basin for about 9 years now, love it there. It's the closest to home and the lowest price of the three marina's on this section of the river. I just need a launch ramp and a dock, but have really enjoyed Big Basin. Parking lot gets a tad crowded on the weekends (of course).“

“Brett is one of the best bartenders there no doubt. The new owner is awesome and friendly. Roccos is a great place for a casual night out for drinks and a good tome with friends“

“Just tried the meatloaf with mashed potatoes and corn. Haven't had it in a long time and boy was I pleasantly surprised. Very very yummy. And thank God the mashed potatoes were made from real potatoes. Definitely tasted home made. Prices are very good as well. I'll try few more dished in the coming weeks but right now 5 stars.“

“I liked it, nice clean facility. Nice big bar area, the grill was clean and the lady cook was very nice, i asked for my amburger in a special way and she accommodated me. My oakbrook OTB is my favorite, been going there for years, but nice to try someplace different. Hawthorne club is a great get away to relax and have fun.“

“Michelle is the absolute best. She makes the atmosphere even better than what it already is by her love for her customers. 100% go back again“

“Met some friends for the Cubs opening day game on one of several television screens. I ordered a half pound burger from Thayer Brothers which is next door. It was prepared perfectly paired with fries and some tasty chicken noodle soup. I was in the mood for a beer on tap and was told they have not had "on tap" for over two years due to the pandemic. I hope they get that situation remedied when I go back.“
