“The Oswego Inn is one awesome little bar, everyone is friendly there and on Thursday Friday nights with the kitchen open, you'll get the best Ruben sandwich and/or burger around, the Reuben sandwich was incredibly huge and really hot out of the kitchen along with the burger, came out the piping hot! Great neighborhood bar to go to! We live in Plainfield, just glad we live nearby to this great place!“

Cantina Sports Bar • $
2745 US-34, Oswego

“I was in search of a dive bar and this place not only surpassed dive bar expectations but became my favorite place to grab a drink and catch up with my favorite bartenders and owner/owner son. Once you get to know the regulars and bartenders you won't want to go anywhere else. Don't pass this up, it won't disappoint if you just give it a chance! Also tons of good local music and events happening if you are looking for that too.“

Lacey's Bar • $$
6 E Merchants Dr, Oswego

“Wonderful experience! My best friend and I stopped in for a drink - there are also slots and some seats for lounging. The bartender, Kammy, has an extremely friendly composure and goes above and to make sure everyone is well taken care of during their time here. There is a large TV. The bathrooms are clean and well kept. The bar itself seats 5 and has standing room for more patrons. As well as being well organized, all bottles of liquor are capped when not in use. They offer drink/shot specials and appetizers. The music is eclectic and modern. Overall, great energy. No drama. No messes. All the people I've met tonight are cordial, courteous, and open to friendly conversation. I highly recommend stopping by for a drink and see where the night leads you!“

“Party of 4 and we waited 34 minutes to order at 5:30 on a Sunday. Very slow service but fresh and delicious food. The sushi rolls are about $20 each and are made to order. We had the popcorn lobster, which was fantastic and some poke tuna on the appetizer menu and it was phenomenal. The OMG and Dirty Old Man rolls were also very good. Pretty decent cocktail menu as well. I had the Bourban drink and it was very good, but I could tell it sat for a while because the ice cube size clearly had melted.“

“I've eaten here before and loved it. It must have been an off night because I was super unimpressed with my food and soup. The soup was Luke warm and didn't taste fresh. My meal I was super excited for and it just tasted bland and off. The staff was great and I would definitely go try it again and get something different.“

A fun bonus is that you get ninja stars and metal cards (think of X-Men Gambit cards) so you can live out your childhood fantasies. Would definitely recommend this place.“

They are extremely family friendly, as we typically take both our 2 little ones with us and its never been a problem.

“I'm sooo full! We came for my sons birthday party. He had the birthday shake, then he ate a burger & fries.I enjoyed a "build your own burger." It was an open faced burger with brisket, vegan mozzarella, pickled onions, lettuce, tomato, pickles, bacon jam & barbecue sauce on the side. Bacon jam made it taste like I had brunch. And a side of sweet potato fries.I took half of it the meal with me.There is cool grafiti art, traditional arcade games, and an outdoor patio. Wow! I'll definitely come back.Vegetarian options: They offer the impossible burger and vegan mozzarella.“
