Went on a Saturday night, basketball games was on, it was pretty busy. Good atmosphere, has the chicken strips and they was pretty good. Service was good for how busy it was.

I LOVE Dive bars. Great location, decent parking. Food is good, great atmosphere and pricing was very comparable to other local bars. There are steps if you enter from the backside.

Great stop after shopping , well decorated and festive for Christmas it gives the right vibe to end a Day of filling Santa's sleigh. Great beer selection , friendly staff and good bar menu . We had hotdog special 2 anyway with a draft for 6 bucks , added some pickle fries , yummy , add the jalopeno ranch for dipping . We will be back !

Best after work chill spot. Not too crowded in the morning after working the GRAVEYARD shift, SHELBY is the BEST
Been here several times for musical bingo. The first time I went the service was painfully slow. 45 minutes to get their burger special. Back again 2 weeks later and it took an hour to get our food! If you're running a special of burgers they should be able to crank them out. One waitress for the whole bar area is also not working! I don't get why they allow such poor service!

Poutine Wiskey burger Wet burrito Poutine slapped. Tasted like a cheese quesadilla a chipotle queso. Really good flavor to pair with tater tots. I wish the cheese was warm, whole thing seemed like it had been sitting for a few minutes so it had that hardened lukewarm cheese feel. Still amazing though. Wet burrito was also done very well. Sauce was tasty and they seasoned the beef just right. The whiskey burger was PHENOMENAL. The burger was cooked perfectly and the bun was soft. But the sauce stole the show. It was so sweet and drippy! Definitely recommend if you're looking for a bar in the area.

Came here for dinner on a Thursday night specifically for their poutine dish for Michigan Street poutine week. Bob's Bar served tater tots with garlic herb cheese curds, house made beef gravy, green onion, and bacon bits. It was great! Felt like it was pretty much what you would want out of a poutine dish. I also got the Chicago dogs which is on their normal menu and these were tasty. I had been craving a Chicago style hot dog for a while and these hit the spot. They got all the toppings right. Especially loved the sport peppers. The basket is served with potato chips. There was some sort of alcohol rep there when we were there and he was handing out free drinks and samplings/shots of alcohol that were on the house so that was a nice surprise! Another nice thing about Bob's bar is their parking! They have a lot that is dedicated only to their customers right across Harlan Ave. Otherwise there is side street parking. Loved the vibe of this place. Kinda divey but not gross or unappealing or anything of that matter. They also have a patio/deck area in the back that looks nice but our server mentioned they don't provide service out there so you come in to order and then take your food/drinks out there.

My husband and I were visiting from out of town. The bartender was quick, friendly and he made great suggestions. I love a cider and he recommended Blakes Triple Jam cider - it is very sweet if you don't care for a sweet cider, you'll hate it but I absolutely necked this and I usually babysit my drinks lol. I'm really bummed we don't have access to this cider in my state :( We also got the beef tacos, those weren't anything special. It honestly was a bit like a Taco Bell soft taco, not bad but not great. We came back the next night for another round and got the garlic cheese curds which were really good. We also got chips & salsa but they were just your basic grocery store chips & bottled salsa. So the mexican type food could be taken up a few notches to elevate the food. Oh and I will say, gotta do something about that bathroom door on the ladies room. Just put in a full door - felt like the stall may have been in the center of the bar.
