The Cottage is a small town bar with a pub atmosphere, offering a cozy and eclectic environment. The bar staff is wonderful, providing excellent service with a personal touch. The menu features a Saturday special, including a 6 oz. filet with a baked potato, mushrooms, broccoli, and bread roll, which is perfectly cooked and tender. The food is delicious and portions are well-proportioned. The restaurant also offers a steak salad option, as well as pizza, burgers, and prime rib sandwiches that are all good. Guests enjoy many excellent side options and often sit on the dog-friendly patio, where the service is attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is amazing, with friendly people and a fun vibe, especially during events like karaoke on Thursdays and martini day on Wednesdays, when martinis are just $6. The Cottage is considered a very comfortable tavern with very good food, making it a popular local watering hole in Downtown Crystal Lake. It’s a great spot for a meal or drinks, with staff who go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant experience, although some reviews have mentioned concerns about management.
