“My wife and I ate an early dinner there on March 4th, '24. Fantastic experience. The waitress was immediately available and took our drink order, also arriving with a platter of chips and warm Queso Dip. We ordered an appetizer of a flight/sampler of their Signature Egg Rolls, including one each of "Reuben", "Pulled Pork", and "Prime Rib". these came with an array of dipping sauces and were delicious! The Mrs. ordered a cup of the homemade chicken soup and the hamburger special. I ordered the Southwest Burger (burger with pepper jack cheese, bacon , a chipotle sauce and bleu cheese dressing on the side) with fries and what appeared to be home made coleslaw. Everything was delicious and of unexpected quality. As simple as french fries are to make, many establishments fall down on this simple task. These were hot, light golden brown, crisp on the outside and light and fluffy on the inside. The burger buns were not the typical store bought mass produced buns but a nice quality raised roll!My only gripe about my meal was that I had asked for medium rare and I would say that I received a burger that was well done. With that said, I can't complain about it because the freshness and execution of everything else was perfect, AND I was given the specialty burger at the bargain daily special price!We will certainly be returning to this establishment to sample some of their other dishes!“
“Was in Joliet and happened upon this bar and decided to stop. Best decision ever !!! The Bloody Mary’s are one of the best I’ve ever had and at a reasonable price ! They also had a nice choice of craft beers and a very welcoming bartender! We plan on stopping by every time we are in town !!!“
“I've heard alot of talk about this establishment in the Joliet area from locals. I know it's been open for years so I'm surprised it doesn't have more reviews. It's an old school neighborhood bar. It can easily be confused as a house. Small but cozy establishment with a great atmosphere. The bar features a fair variety of drinks. The bartender Jerry was also friendly. The bar has clean and really warm bathrooms. A beautiful patio and a pool table too! Prices are fair and parking isn't bad either. Always a fan of neighborhood bars like this so I wouldn't mind coming back“
“Fun little neighborhood place that often features live local talent. Although they don't serve food, they partner with the next door restaurant and have an order window inside the bar for customer convenience. Fun place with nice outdoor patio with band stage. Great place to meet up with friends.“
“Tasha is amazing!!!! Great to have a bar do an LGBTQ night; just wish it was done on a busier night; doing it on a slow Wednesday night kinda screams how can we make money when it's dead~ let's see if the gays will gives us there money. But nonetheless they have it and promote it so much better then the other bars in the area.“
“My cousin took me here for my birthday and I had a great time!! The bartender, Shelly, was the sweetest, nicest person ever! She was so helpful at picking drinks for me. I haven't been to very many bars and I really don't drink but she helped me pick out a couple really good drinks! The atmosphere and the other people drinking at the bar was so good. Everyone was so nice and just wanted to have a good time. At a point I even met parts of her family. I love a family bar ? ? Thank you for an awesome birthday!! ???“
“I cannot believe there are no reviews for this Boar's Nest classic rural outstanding bar they have a kitchen which you can clearly see from the bar and observe the cook and great beer and this is just a great rural dive bar setting which I have had on my Google Maps forever. I was not disappointed and Crow's Nest is among the most unique in Alabama type bar one will come across in Illinois and I highly recommend this place the food here is very modernly priced and they do not gouge the consumer like most corporate luxury restaurants“
“Honestly, this bar is my favorite bar. The bartenders are absolutely splendid! All of them! They 100% know what they are doing. It's comfortable in there, they know when you need a drink. You're NOT waiting 10 minutes to be noticed. You are noticed right when you walk in the door. I've been to a lot of bars. This place is the bees' knees (if that's how you spell it). I always feel safe and looked out for. Thank you Judges!!! LOVE YOU!!!“
“My husband and I have been here numerous times and it never disappoints. Phenomenal wait staff, food and drinks. From the person who greets you, to the person who cooks your food, to the manager who is very attentive, everything is perfection. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
