Big Al's Pub & Grubberia

The reviews of this place make it seem like it was once a great hangout.

My experience was much different. The place was practically empty. I grabbed a few beers, sat outside, and was quickly hassled by a local tweaker. It was not a great experience.

Maybe the area has changed significantly?

The salad had bad lettuce, the chicken sandwich was just a piece of bread and chicken. The menu is from prior management, items are not available now.

Went to grab a pickup and server said that it would take 7 minutes. I stood there for an hour before the food came out of the kitchen and there was barely two sets of customers dining. How in the world the kitchen took that long and showed no accountability? I could give zero star!!!

Only takes cash.. not happy with that. Atm fee is half of a drink cost

Good local American restaurant

Best place for regulars, really welcoming. Affordable food and drinks

Listen, I understand this is a low-key local/dive bar but there comes a time where you just have to bite the bullet and invest in your own business and make the necessary upgrades and repairs. This place is old, dingy and very outdated. It's one thing to be nostalgic but this ain't that at all. I think it's just plain selfish to continue to operate this business under these conditions. The bathrooms are deplorable. Mind you I'm not even talking about making upgrades/repairs for luxury purposes this is more about hygiene. The food is good and the staff are decent so I give them credit for that but I can't help but to wonder what the kitchen looks like if the bathrooms look the way they do so that's that.The city should be enforcing some upgrades/repairs at this point.

Great place, great wings.

Love all their food, pizza is great too, love the bartenders

Met here for a half-way point for Christmas. The place was not busy at all. It's a little off the road and hard to see. They were out of wings (apparently due to recent power outages in the area). That's okay, though! We liked having Nikki all to ourselves! She was great! The food was great! We had the pizza (custom made Chicken with Vesuvius hot sauce), burger with fries, app plate and spaghetti, so we sampled a lot of the menu. Laid back sports vibe...

The food was great for the price. The salad was big as crap and the pizza was really good. The beer was nice and really cold. I would be back.

Love this place! My husband and I have become regulars since we moved to this side of town. Its a grungy, 90s sports bar with food that is way better than it should be and bartenders who have enough sass and tenacity to match the vibe. I recommend if you love a good dive bar!

My husband and I went to watch a football game here recently. The pizza was outstanding. The service good UNTIL the waitress de ided to vacuum our side of the restaurant in the middle of the game. My husband loves this place. He watches games there all the time. Unfortunately, this put a bad enough taste in my mouth, I think I'll insist on going somewhere else when I accompany him. I was a professional server for years. This was beyond rude.
