“It is a great local establishment with great food, great drinks, awesome staff. The owners continually invests in the community. I love supporting a business that cares for its employees as well as its customers. Great hangout place with family and friends.“

“We went here last night for Singo and what a great time! There was about 40 people playing and it was soooo fun!!! The food here is OUTSTANDING! They have a limited menu of flatbreads and sliders! Don’t be fooled by the limited options. They offer all types of flatbreads and sliders! Delicious!!
The 2 girls that run this, Tara and Kenzie, are fantastic!!! These 2 did everything from cooking to bartending to serving! The service was top notch!

We will be back and make sure to try the meatball flatbed ?“

“I’ve eaten at Bleuroot twice when traveling through Chicago for hockey trips. Every bite has been phenomenal and there have been many “Oh you’ve got to try this” shared plates. The staff are amazing and this is a place where it’s okay to be loud and boisterous and joyful. Thanks to Maria and the crew for a great experience (and excellent customer service mailing me back a pair of prescription sunglasses I left on the table!). Looking forward to a third visit in November!“

“Absolutely delicious. Great staff. Great cocktails“

“I have updated my review to 5 stars because they are one of the few fast food restaurants that has a good tasting gluten free hamburger bun.

Dietary restrictions: Though they have gluten free buns, they do not have designated gluten free cooking stations. I am not hypersensitive to gluten so I can eat their burgers and grilled chicken without adverse reactions.“

“My Birthday 🎂 Meal it was delicious“

“We had the most amazing experience here! We had a last minute change of plans and I called Debbie and she worked her magic and she got us in to the VFW. Not only did she help us in that end she helped us prepare and helped us in any way possible. She was absolutely amazing and I highly recommend working with her! I will be doing future events here! Thank you Debbie for being our angel! On top of all this the food was absolutely amazing and all of the guests raved about it! I do not have enough amazing things to say about this place! Thank you for everything! ❤️“

“Still the best burger around“

“Our wedding was on 8/18/2023 and we are still so happy from the perfect day. From the minute we started our tour at Pinstripes with Shannon Schurr, my husband and I knew Pinstripes was going to be the perfect place for our wedding reception. We toured a few other venues, but Pinstripes was perfect. Shannon was so responsive and answered all of our questions along the way. The food tasting was lovely as well and it was a great chance to try all the food and feel confident at our choices. From the tour to the tasting to the reception, everything was seamless and magical. All of our guests absolutely raved about the reception venue and all the wedding guests mentioned it was the most fun wedding reception they have ever been at. The food and drink options were fantastic! We had bowling during our cocktail hour (with socks and bowling shoes included for all guests) and bocci courts open after dinner, which was a huge hit. We reserved the all-seasons outside space, which was well worth the little additional money, and the firepits and decorations (including the flowered backdrop) were a big hit and we didn’t even need to buy any decorations because it was set up so beautifully. The service was excellent throughout the whole night and the linens turned out prettier than we could have pictured! There was also a cool stand for the cake to be displayed while we were cutting it. Many of our guests now frequent for bowling and dinner at Pinstripes and my husband and I do the same.“

“Muy sabroso lo recomiendo“

“Usually great service and people, but you guys missed the mark tonight. The delivery person outside tried to give me at least 3 different orders that weren’t ours, and when we got home the chicken nuggets were missing the sauce, and the chili was missing the toppings and sour cream. Not a great outing tonight.“

“Amazing establishment. The workers were kind, talkative and friendly. They made great recommendations and everything I tried was amazing. I did enjoy the aesthetic and the stained glass, but the food was amazing. I would recommend the Braised Lamb, French onion soup, and sorbet. Can't wait to return. Wonderful wine/bourbon selection as well.“

“fine course well maintained great food“

“McDonalds is getting way overpriced and food is....ok at best. Thought I'd try Culvers in FRG. Was NOT dissapointed! For about the same price you get a DELICIOUS, HOT, LOOKS LIKE THE PICTURE burger, huge portion of hot crispy fat fries and a soft drink of your choice! I'm not one to take pictures of my food, but I did! It was a masterpiece! Loved it!“

“We have been going there for the last five years bragging about the hamburgers. Went there today order the hamburger it came out. Almost fully well done very poor quality. One asked If I could have gotten it rare was told menu says medium well. Meat was of a quality as if it was cooked earlier this week. Definitely will not be going back for hamburgers. Was told by the waitress No one will ask you how you want it done it says on the menu. We used to consider it best burger in town.“

“Their fries! They are delicious! 🤤“

“Double Butterburgers!!👍👍👍👍👍“

“My family of six ate at Culvers in McHenry on Tuesday, Dec 31 about 1:30. We were greeted with a pleasant hello. The lady who took our order got it right and was pleasant.Since were a group of 6, I figured it would take a little longer to get our order. That wasn't the case. Not only did the order come quickly, but is also accurate. That was wonderful! When we were nearing the end of our meal, a gentleman, (Jude, I believe) can around with free samples of the flavor of the day (Mint explosion). Never has that happened at Colvers to me in the many times I eat at different Culvers! What a nice touch! Upon leaving, we got a cheery Thank you, have a great day and happy new year. I wish I lived a little closer because Culvers in McHenry would definitely be my go to place. Thank you for good food and the kindness you all showed.“

“This was by far a great experience amazing food friendly staff and not to mention even winning a few times on the machines . I mean who don’t like to like to win money 💰. A group of us visited this fine establishment and from beginnng to end a great experience I will definitely be returning again and have put out the word for people to try this place .“

“Great service, food and atmosphere“

“Best people work here Food is great Pride in ownership Known Peter for years“

“I've been to this place a few times and let me tell you, the food here is absolutely mind-blowing! Every single dish we sampled was bursting with flavor and cooked to absolute perfection. I can't recommend the burgers, chicken wings, and the Friday fish fry highly enough. And the service here? Top-notch! Both Kara and Roger were attentive without being intrusive, and the entire staff worked together seamlessly to create a flawless dining experience. We never had to ask for anything twice! Overall, our experience dining at this restaurant was an absolute delight from start to finish. Between the incredibly delicious food, impeccable service, and charming ambiance, it made for an incredibly memorable experience! Trust me, you've got to check this place out!“

“Once you eat here, you will not want to eat anywhere else.“

“We needed a place for dinner while driving home from a weekend getaway. We luckily found Bobbers thanks to reviews on Google Maps. Boy were we glad we went! Lake perch fish fry was fantastic as were the grilled shrimp and curly fries. Can’t wait to go back on a nice day and sit outdoors with a beautiful lake view!“

“Had real good food and drafts“

“The squirrel and his wife went there for lunch. The dining room wasn't open sat in a bar area. The bar is a bar suitable for evening snacks and bar food. seating is very limited they don't take reservations The food was good, not great, but good for the price.“

“loved it! friendly staff and great food.“

“This was on my list since long time as I live nearby everytime I see long queue on drive through. One fine day came here to try out their burger. Ordered crispy chicken burger, the Ordered served may be in 5 minutes. Chicken was really cooked fresh with hint of spices. Really good burger. Will definitely come again.
Loved the prompt service too.“

“So amazing! Waiter, Charles was awesome and so was greeter, Elizabeth Food and drinks were amazing! Ambience also amazing! New favorite restaurant! I can’t say enough good about everything!“

“Phenomenal craft cocktails! Everything from my appetizer through desert was worth raving about. Staff was attentive and friendly. I will be a repeat customer for sure!“

“BUT i ordered online last night and did not realize until much later that we were missing an item (dessert). They were already closed. Its frustrating. And aggravating. The rest of the food tasted great though. I willcall tomorrow to let them know. No, i dont want a refund or credit. I want my cake 😢😢😢“
