- ZERO STARS -

We went there for the third time this evening (Sunday, 11/2) after shooting at D5. The same bartender was on shift today as the prior days ... dark hair just past her shoulders, heavy set girl, very lazy. Not one time has she EVER ventured out from behind the bar to take our orders in spite of us making constant eye contact with her. One time we just ordered food from the adjacent restaurant and no drinks, another time we approached the bar standing behind customers seated at the bar (uncomfortable) to get this bartender's attention to place an order; but tonight ... we just walked out. Not only is this bartender extremely LAZY, but after she ate a donut we witnessed her stick her entire thumb inside her mouth and suck it as she twisted it around to ensure she got every last bit of sugar. She probably licked her other fingers, as well, but I had to turn my head NASTY!! She then proceeded to grab a can, open it and prepare a drink for a man without washing her hands. We decided to leave and WE WON'T BE BACK. This girl needs additional training or to be fired. The service here sucks and from what I can remember from last time, the drinks weren't worth the hassle. See Connie next door, though, for great pizza and much better service.

Just a fyi, Sams Tavern does not serve food. The two businesses connected to it do but have different hours.

This place really looks awesome with the reclaimed brick from the old clocktower in Rockford! Great job - looks wonderful. We had an enjoyable time here with great service from our favorite bar keep - Jimmy. Thank you, ❤️ Merry Christmas!??☃️
