“I didn’t eat here. I actually got water. They don’t have lemon I was designated driver and they didn’t look down at that. They kept my water cold and brought me more ice. Pretty quiet. Family placeKid-friendliness: Bring something for the kids to do. Tables are huge. Enough for food and a board gameWheelchair accessibility: No stairs. Double doors.Plenty of parking“
“The bar is really cool inside and in a great location. The staff were amazing and awesome. The drinks are poured by a machine, so you only get the exact amount. Prices were average for drinks. The Pool table were really nice condition and fast. Can't wait to go back.“

“We are a family of 4, we weren't sure if a restaurant without Kids Menu was a good option for us. But our girls (6 and 13) loved every dish they tried. It was a delicious experience and we definitely are coming back. Sonny was a great host, gave us recommendations and he just got us. We tried Meat paella, Beed meatballs, charcuterie, chicken a la giardiniera. We cannot wait to enjoy Al Fresco when the weather gets warmer.“
“No wake is great. The servers and bartenders are really friendly. The prices at this bar are always reasonable. I always enjoy the food when I visit. Atmosphere is fun too. This bar is popular but gets more crowded in the summer months. Located on the Fox River it's always fun to stop while boating. They also have gas for refueling boats. There are also a lot machines and there is outdoor seating in the summer months. I would highly recommend visiting no wake.“
“If anyone likes Polish food, the POLISH AMERICAN BISTRO in Barrington is amazing. So authentic, delicious, clean & owners are very friendly. Small, casual with great desserts too. They give you plenty to eat. If Borscht is soup of the day, I highly recommend it. 8 of us loved our various meals & will return! We want what the other guy had haha!Wheelchair accessibility: Handicapped parking right in front. Plenty of room to wheel even in the bathroom. Appropriate hand grips & toilette height.“
“Stopped in quick for some pizza and to watch the game. Staff was friendly and helpful. Loved their tater tots. Pizza wasn't our style, but hit the spot after a long drive. Great place to watch the game.Parking: Lot is pretty small and a little difficult to get in and out of, but there was parking available.“
“It’s a pretty neat place to come and stop by for some food and a drink. They had the fire pit going on outside this winter and thought that was cool. Staff there seemed really friendly as well. Lots of people come here from the wedding venue up the street.“
“We dined in tonight and it was busy and took a little while to get menus and drinks but it was totally worth the wait. The food was AMAZING along w the margaritas flight. There was only 2 servers tonight you could tell they were working so hard and so fast to accommodate everyone. We’ll definitely be back!“
“The first time I ended up at this place it was because I found it on a Google search when I was looking for some tacos close to my job.I'll be honest, when I saw that it was inside of a gas station, it felt a little sketchy. I'm so glad I tried it, though! Their tacos are great!! I've been here many times and the quality and flavor is always consistent.“
“Everything on the menu seems to be amazing. The service is always friendly and fast, and the food is often out so fast that I'm surprised by it. There are a lot of Mexican restaurants out there, and this one is tied for the top spot in my experience. I seriously only know one other restaurant with food this good, and have only had tacos as gourmet as these twice in my life. It's not just good. It's the kind of restaurant that becomes your standard for how food should be done. Give it a try. You'll thank me.“

“Great beer selection! Friendly service. You can bring your own food, they have complimentary snacks. You can also order from Wise guys Pizza next door. They now have a TV with sorts playing and an even better selection of beer. Eat/drink local!“
“Lots of potential here. Cozy with a large outdoor area including seating with fire pits. Wood is $15 if you want a fire. Clean restrooms and friendly service are found here along with newer but tight indoor seating area. Will go back as this was our first visit. Live guitar player/singer outside named Josh that sounded very good but froze his fingers off... Tap Room, give him some heat! Met friendly and fun people so looking forward to stopping in again. It's located right across from Klein's on Plank Road.“
“Just recently discovered this South Elgin gem. Been coming here after High school football games. Staff is always welcoming and friendly. There menu is very good, haven't had a bad meal yet. Even the regulars are welcoming. Plenty of TV's to catch a game, just learned they have live music too on the weekends. Come and enjoy. You won't be disappointed.“
“Nice little dive bar. Found it as we messed up the train schedule coming back from Medinah and enjoyed some beer and pool. Close to the casino so we walked over there for a bit then headed back to the bar for a last round before catching the right train back home. Definitely an old building which is cool. If I was ever near there again I would stop in.“
“Sauen was very attentive to our orders and gave explanatory guest services to my nephew and I during our visit. We definitely will be back of Sauen is serving.Kid-friendliness: Thank you, Sau I hope that is the right the right spelling of your name. It was quite nosy“
“What a great vibe in here! The clientele is mixed and everyone is chill. There are middle aged and millennials, regulars and newbies all in one small space. People come in off the street while walking their dogs just to say "hi". The look is an eclectic mix of rock n roll meets pop with some hippy mixed in. In the back is fun outside seating. If it's nice, get out there and relax. Don't miss out on this place and don't be afraid to go inside ladies, don't be fooled by the outside...it's perfectly ok and you'll miss out on a gem.“
“Perfect dive bar for an autumn night! Drinks are very cheap and the bar is casual and relaxed. There is a jukebox and snacks for sale but no beer on tap...only Jaeger the crowd is mostly male and the place is pretty run down. If you stay long enough though some locals may just bring in their pups! Nothing better than dogs in a bar in my opinion!“
“Coco was our waitress and she was Awesome! We will definitely be coming here again. She was friendly, made conversation, and despite being busy didn’t keep us waiting. Very great experience.Parking: Was sort of crowded but was pretty easily able to find a spot.“
