50 Best Bars near Rock Island

“If i could give 100 stars I would. I came here 2 nights and the first night I ordered the POlISH SAUSAGE and it was FANTASTIC. The 2nd night I ordered the GRILLED PORK TENDERLOIN and it was FANTASTIC! The staff and the atmosphere was AWESOME! I highly recommend trying this place out. BTW Prices was INSANELY CHEAP.“

“Nice bar reasonably priced!“

“We were there virtually. My buddy was playing this beautiful lady on darts all the way from our bar in Iowa. Didn’t know you could that. But he smoked her like 100x. So he called over there and bought her a round and I played a couple songs on TouchTunes because that’s what wingmen do. Seems like solid place… virtually speaking.“

“Food was fire 🔥 customer service amazing. Big thanks to the chiefs working in the back too.“

“We was there today for the 1st time and the food was amazing can't wait to go again“

“Last night we went to Chevin's Kitchen and Catering located inside Kavanaugh’s Hilltop Bar and Grill in Rock Island. This is the second time we have stopped in recently for the daily special. We are so glad we did. From the prompt greeting by the servers and bar staff to the made to order burger sliders with fresh cut fries everything was AMAZING! Our servers were on top of it and so friendly. The food was GREAT! If you haven’t checked this place out yet or if you have forgotten about one of the oldest bars in the neighborhood don’t snooze on this! Great food and great service! We can’t wait to go back! — at Kavanaugh's Hilltop.“

“Cheap prices, great food, kid friendly“

“Excellent food and excellent service!“

“What great space with great people! We stopped by after the Reindeer Rambler 5k. It was so cute, cozy, and festive! The bartenders were so sweet, and the vibe is it! It was a beautiful day outside for December and we got to sit outside by the fire pit. The outside is just an inviting as the inside. 10/10 will be back“

“Today we had my son’s graduation party there! Everything was set up for us amazing staff bartenders were great! Highly recommend“

“One of my favorite places to go, fun and friendly atmosphere and great service. The owners are amazing people.“

“Food is a 10 out of 10, service is a zero out of 10. Our service was Maddie and she needs to go back to waitress school. She is absolutely horrible, if I knew she was going to be my waitress the next time I went I would never go again. I could go into everything that she needs to improve on but not going to waste my time.“

“The specialty shot called the Polish shooter is the best around“

“Fun spot to hang out! Plus check out The Full Nelson Catering and Food Truck debute at The Q!!“

“10/10 place and bartenders“

“Just had the Ribs and baked beans again. Fall off the bone ribs with amazing sauce. The baked beans must be the best on this planet.“

“Had a great time stereo speakers sound beautiful nice atmosphere you can look out the windows and see the rock river flowing by wood trees to go with it the first Sunday of every month they have a surprise drink you must try it it's fun“

“Open jam Wednesday nights. It's a fun place to unwind or wind up. Whether you're just stopping in for a drink or night cap, or to let loose and socialize this place is highly recommended by me and plenty of my friends/acquaintances. Stop by any day or night of the week to check out the bar, video gaming machines (maybe you will get lucky), and enjoy the patio. Patio has plenty of seating and standing room, and some fire pits to warm up next to if you get chilly. The patio fire pits also provide a little more ambiance to the outdoor vibe... If you show up on a Wednesday night you will be guaranteed (by yours truly) to see and hear a decent live performance by some local up and coming artists, and some locals who just love playing live music in front of a great audience. Stop by and show your support“

“You’ll be hard pressed to find kinder, more skilled bartenders in the Quad Cities. Their patio is ideal and their old fashioned recipe is my favorite. Management works hard to keep both their staff and their patrons safe and comfortable. They’ll even hook you up with a pup cup for your pupperino.“

“Great hospitality last night at M lounge“

“Really nice atmosphere. Very nice bartenders. Bathrooms very clean & even have cell phone holder!! Great live music. Beautiful outdoor patio with fireplace. Only suggestion would be to add some baffles in the ceiling to help with noise. Fun place, recommend!!“

“Great place, excellent food and atmosphere. The owners are very nice people.“

“Anthony is the best mixologist anywhere. The menu is five star. Charcuterie served for 2,4, or 6. Whatever you do, don’t eat before getting there. Gary & Patty.“

“karoke with robert , 🎤,the food&bargirls,allens ok too😁“

“Only good thing about this place is the view. Went last night to celebrate a birthday and I spent more time waiting for my beer than being able to sit down and enjoy my time. 10+ minute wait for a beer with only 5 People around the bar is pretty ridiculous. Needless to say I was pretty upset by the end of the night.“

“Haven't been down there in many years but tbh I never personally thought it was a bad bar from what I've noticed. The west end can sometimes have some real clowns hanging out in those bars down there but I never really did see this at the nickel at least when I was down there.“

“Great place! Have gone there for years and always treated great!“

“One of my favorite neighborhood bars! An old school atmosphere with memorabilia to remind you of all the good times. I love playing shuffleboard while there and the staff is awesome! Food never disappoints either so make sure to check out their specials!“

“The owner creates a welcoming and safe environment for patrons. The staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is just what you want for a night out. Highly recommended“

“Great atmosphere and good drink specials ?“

“Great wine and bourbon. Highly recommend!“

“Mulligans is the best!!!!“

“It was karaoke night. The place was hopping. Bartenders were busy. We had an amazing time. Service was great and everyone was friendly. I accidentally left my credit card behind when we left. With one quick phone call, they returned my credit card via USPS in just a couple of days. If I'm ever in the area again, we'd love to stop by again.“

“All good bartenders and beer is always cold“

“Great service! Fun Friday night ☺“

“I can not say enough about this place. They make you feel like family. They make sure you’re comfortable and treat you like a regular always. It’s clean and has a favorite of FREE snacks and other food for purchase. They have weekly drawings and slot machines for anyone who’s looking for a little extra cash“

“You can't go wrong. The food is so good. My husband usually gets the tenderloin. It's HUGE, but more importantly, it's DELICIOUS 😋. I've often had the Chicken Bacon Ranch Wrap....sometimes the shrimp, but last night I had the Rueben sandwich. Like everything else... HUGE and DELICIOUS.!!! The BEST Rueben I've ever had. ❤️“

“Nice little tavern with lots of room inside doesn't look like it from the outside but it does shock you! The bar is all round in the center which is very cool! The bartender was very nice and met the other one as she was there to have a drink on her day off she was very nice! The prices are not real expensive for beers, mixed drinks, or shots! Was my first time being here and was very impressed! Live down a block and half from it and might become my little hot-spot to have a drink or two after a hard days work! Oh one more thing can't say the f word in there it's cuz its a heritage thing of theirs I don't mind cuz I don't use it that much!!! If you do you could be kicked out!!!“

“It’s the kind of place where everyone fits in! Friendly bartenders and an overall fun environment!“

“We were on I80 when the tornado warning/rain/winds forced us off the highway. With no idea where to go, we took 2 right turns then sprinted into the first building we saw with lights. Megan and the regulars couldn’t have been more welcoming. It’s welcoming, clean, good pour, and great people! If you’re in the area be sure to stop in!!“

“great place good for all ages good place to rent“

“Not sure what the name of the lady who was working tonight (2/18/23) but the last few times she made our pizza was absolutely delicious please keep her 😊😊“

“Love this place! Great football spot.“

“Love the PARTIO, Bartenders and the Vibe“

“We were in from out of town for a concert on 6/11 and wanted to go have a few drinks at a smaller bar so I typed in dive bars and this little place popped up so we gave it a try. This place did not disappoint! We were introduced to horse betting from the locals, (thanks Beau) and had a good bartender (thanks Josh) and all around a great time. Good laughs, cold beer, won some $ and had a few shots! Everyone one was very friendly and we will def be back to visit again!“
