5 Best Bars near Marengo

“Good beer and friendly people.“

“Another great day, ride, and burger. Voted by 100% in our group as the best or second-best burger so far this year! The 3/4 lb fresh patty makes all the difference between a good burger and a great burger. A quarter pound burger, even when triple stacked, is never as good as this 3/4 lb burger. The bun today was signature branded and was perfect and didn't compete with or detract from the burger but became one with the burger. The properly stacked burger toppings held their individual flavors with each juicy bite!!! A must visit place in Marengo, IL.“

“Great ownership, atmosphere and staff.“

“Sams is by far my favorite bar in the area. Always great service. Fridays and Saturdays can be really fun. Drink prices are great. What I drink is half the price the other bars located on the same street. Went to sams for my birthday in september for first time and it was such a great experience. It was not a fluke. I try to make it there every couple weeks. Sams is the only bar I go to now. Thank you for being such a great bar. 😁“

“Pointer’s Saloon allowed me to host a Celebration of Life type event. They accommodated between 20-30 people on a Saturday night in their dining area which later lead us to the bar area. The owner personally came and greeted me and gave his condolences. The staff was absolutely amazing, attentive, friendly and fast! They had food made ON TIME & kept up with our add ons. It made for a wonderful night on a sad occasion. I highly recommend them whether for a late night beverage or a gathering such as ours. Also, the communication between the owner directly was impressive as well as the friendly ladies that originally took me call to get me in touch with the owner as well as the servers that called prior to our arrival to make sure they had everything arranged for my liking! I can’t say enough about this whole encounter preparing for & enjoying our evening, it was great!“
