“My personal favorite place to go. Close to home friendly people and the drinks are average. It's a nice older bar and the locals visit here daily, but are always willing to welcome a new-comer. They do not offer food, but the attached Pizza place opens at 3:00 pm and has a great pizza and offers fast food.“
“Overall consistent BWW experience with good food and attentive service. This location is usually surprisingly not too busy on Saturday nights and I’ve not had to wait for a table in multiple visits. Great set up for a sports bar with plenty of screens and staff willing to change the channel for you. Always the one BWW that shows the UFC pay per view fights out of all others in the area.“
“Love the food there. Service is always good and nice atmosphere. The thing I like the most about BackRoads is they were one of the few restaurants around who ignored the fake pandemic shutdown. I go there 2-3 times a month and will always support them.“
“First time dinning there last night. My husband had the shrimp poor boy. I had the chicken ceaser wrap. We had the bruschetta and onions rings for appetizers. Our kids got kids meals and blt. Dessert wise had the cookie with ice cream. We are still talking about the food today. Everything was perfect from the drinks, food and service. Danna was so patient and kind. We will definitely be returning. Thank you so very much“

“Marissa was out server. We were visiting family from out of town. She was super friendly and on top of things! Food was good enough, nothing like wow worthy. Would come back! Atmosphere and service is the difference maker here for sure!!!! Will come back to avoid in-laws!!!!!!“
“My husband and I have been here numerous times and it never disappoints. Phenomenal wait staff, food and drinks. From the person who greets you, to the person who cooks your food, to the manager who is very attentive, everything is perfection. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“jackie's is a great classic pub. good ambiance, cheap beer, and free popcorn. i needed a nonalcoholic drink option and they pulled through with a can of root beer and were even so kind as to offer me a cup of ice to go with it. they also have one of those fun digital juke boxes that you can pay to play songs on“
“My wife and I ate an early dinner there on March 4th, '24. Fantastic experience. The waitress was immediately available and took our drink order, also arriving with a platter of chips and warm Queso Dip. We ordered an appetizer of a flight/sampler of their Signature Egg Rolls, including one each of "Reuben", "Pulled Pork", and "Prime Rib". these came with an array of dipping sauces and were delicious! The Mrs. ordered a cup of the homemade chicken soup and the hamburger special. I ordered the Southwest Burger (burger with pepper jack cheese, bacon , a chipotle sauce and bleu cheese dressing on the side) with fries and what appeared to be home made coleslaw. Everything was delicious and of unexpected quality. As simple as french fries are to make, many establishments fall down on this simple task. These were hot, light golden brown, crisp on the outside and light and fluffy on the inside. The burger buns were not the typical store bought mass produced buns but a nice quality raised roll!My only gripe about my meal was that I had asked for medium rare and I would say that I received a burger that was well done. With that said, I can't complain about it because the freshness and execution of everything else was perfect, AND I was given the specialty burger at the bargain daily special price!We will certainly be returning to this establishment to sample some of their other dishes!“
“Was in Joliet and happened upon this bar and decided to stop. Best decision ever !!! The Bloody Mary’s are one of the best I’ve ever had and at a reasonable price ! They also had a nice choice of craft beers and a very welcoming bartender! We plan on stopping by every time we are in town !!!“
“I've heard alot of talk about this establishment in the Joliet area from locals. I know it's been open for years so I'm surprised it doesn't have more reviews. It's an old school neighborhood bar. It can easily be confused as a house. Small but cozy establishment with a great atmosphere. The bar features a fair variety of drinks. The bartender Jerry was also friendly. The bar has clean and really warm bathrooms. A beautiful patio and a pool table too! Prices are fair and parking isn't bad either. Always a fan of neighborhood bars like this so I wouldn't mind coming back“
“Fun little neighborhood place that often features live local talent. Although they don't serve food, they partner with the next door restaurant and have an order window inside the bar for customer convenience. Fun place with nice outdoor patio with band stage. Great place to meet up with friends.“
“I myself an a Ruben connoisseur, so if you like Ruben’s this is the place. The fried pickles, delicious, the loaded potato skins iconic. We got the food to go, we walked in and the food came out. Got home opened the food up and it was so beautiful. Eating this Ruben had to be the best thing ever. Also it was Saint Patrick day and this will be a new yearly tradition. But I probally need this sandwich at least once a month. The bartender on duty was beautiful and sweet. For a little place in the neighborhood I can’t believe it was this delicious. If you don’t live in crest hill it’s worth the trip. 100/10 would recommend“
“Tasha is amazing!!!! Great to have a bar do an LGBTQ night; just wish it was done on a busier night; doing it on a slow Wednesday night kinda screams how can we make money when it's dead~ let's see if the gays will gives us there money. But nonetheless they have it and promote it so much better then the other bars in the area.“
“Stopped in while in town. Drinks were very affordable. Absolut and sprite were only $4. Tvs were a little loud. One bartender was working, and she was seen cleaning the bar and dishware. It did take a little bit for a drink because she was solo. I didn't try any food on my visit.“
“My cousin took me here for my birthday and I had a great time!! The bartender, Shelly, was the sweetest, nicest person ever! She was so helpful at picking drinks for me. I haven't been to very many bars and I really don't drink but she helped me pick out a couple really good drinks! The atmosphere and the other people drinking at the bar was so good. Everyone was so nice and just wanted to have a good time. At a point I even met parts of her family. I love a family bar ? ? Thank you for an awesome birthday!! ???“
“One waitress for the whole tables area and our party of 16. She was a rock star. We had drink refills before asking. Our food was all hot and amazing! We were all sharing and couldn't get over how good everything on the menu seemed to be! Steak sandwich and cornbread was the winning vote, but the grilled chicken and grilled cheese, onion blossom, cheese sticks, and especially the Brussel sprouts were all huge hits!We celebrated 3 birthdays all at once. 70th , 48th, and 24th, it was truly a family affair! Thanks for putting us off in the corner to be loud and funny and not disturb others. It was the perfect setup! We brought in 2 cakes, and they were kept cool and ready for us to serve. They were even brought out before I had to ask as the meals were whining down.It was the perfect birthday for a very special set of birthdays!Once in a lifetime, would we be 1/2 the age of the other. Thanks for the amazing food and great setting.“
“I cannot believe there are no reviews for this Boar's Nest classic rural outstanding bar they have a kitchen which you can clearly see from the bar and observe the cook and great beer and this is just a great rural dive bar setting which I have had on my Google Maps forever. I was not disappointed and Crow's Nest is among the most unique in Alabama type bar one will come across in Illinois and I highly recommend this place the food here is very modernly priced and they do not gouge the consumer like most corporate luxury restaurants“
“I've lived in the area for quite a while and had never tried this establishment. A friend suggested it, and although hesitant, I joined the group. It was really nice! The drinks were great, and the wings were delicious. We played pool and darts while listening to choice music! Our waitress was attentive, and that made the experience even better. Good job, Stone City!“
“Honestly, this bar is my favorite bar. The bartenders are absolutely splendid! All of them! They 100% know what they are doing. It's comfortable in there, they know when you need a drink. You're NOT waiting 10 minutes to be noticed. You are noticed right when you walk in the door. I've been to a lot of bars. This place is the bees' knees (if that's how you spell it). I always feel safe and looked out for. Thank you Judges!!! LOVE YOU!!!“
“Stopped in to see some bands last night. The owner remembered me from my chemo party I had there 6 years ago. He is a great host. One bartender refused to let us order food even though kitchen was still open another hour. I noticed the cook and asked him, he said put in an order. Went to different bartender and she put in our order. The owner then came and brought us some delicious pickle spear fries. Good night!“
