33 Best Bar & Grill near Afton

“The place is lively and everyone is nice, especially to new comers. The food is cooked in front of you and prepared nicely. The games are a nice touch with dice rolls, spin to win and slots. They have other games to play with your friends like pool and darts. I’d suggest checking it out if you’re hoping around with friends.“

“Traveling through. Definitely one of the best burgers I've ever had. also the Beer battered chicken strips were amazing!! 3 thumbs up!“

For sure a do over and very soon.. I had the fish, totally awesome, My son had the double Smokehouse - I cant believe he ate the whole thing - HUGE, All in all a great place to go“

“Food was delicious. We had the corn beef and cabbage and prime rib tacos. Servings very generous. Food arrived quickly. Our server was great.“

“Stopped in for an excellent meal and immaculate ambiance, perfect for a cold night. Those house-made pretzels with hot mustard were absolutely chef’s kiss 💋. The service was top-tier and the staff were extremely friendly. A definite must-try if you're in the Janesville area!“

“Stokes is the “Cheers” of Janesville. It has been the gathering place for many generations of Janesvillians dating back to the Wisconsin Club days. The giant W bar is the coolest bar lay out! Friendly staff, honest drinks, and great bar food make this my favorite Janesville pub.“

“Holy cow! These ribs are the best I’ve ever had, seriously! Highly recommended!!! My boyfriend and I were driving by and decided to stop in for a quick drink. After meeting Aubrey and frEddie, we were sold! Super friendly service and hometown atmosphere made our stay longer than planned. We heard about the Saturday special with the ribs, baked beans and cornbread among a long list of other pork items we did not get, at least this time. We recommended Fast Eddies to any rib lovers out there! I considered them to beat anything ribs I had at ribs feast last year. The passion for the BBQ shined through every bite I ate. Great jobs guys! We will return soon.“

“UPDATE 10/08/2026

Still just a great place. Haven't been here for over a year. Stopped in on October 8th for a Charlie burger, onion rings, and chili. It was all great. Consistently good food.

Original review below:

I stopped in here for lunch today around 3:30pm. First time here. There were just a few patrons at the bar, but not that busy.

I ordered the Charlie Burger with onion rings and Ranch for dipping. The burger was great! Nothing fancy. Basically, a bacon cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles. It hit the spot. The onion rings were fried perfectly.

This is a local bar with friendly service. Its small inside, but the food was really good!“

“I love this place. Relaxed atmosphere, fantastic food, generous drinks, great prices, and the best staff!“

“Great place to stop and grab a bite to eat and drink . Amazing service“

“Lunch was delicious! Soup and sandwiches were awesome! Atmosphere very nice and clean, friendly staff!“

“This place was in Beloit, and I honestly didn’t expect it to look the way it did. It had a really interesting atmosphere and felt like a classic local tavern.

I ordered the Tuesday special: chicken wings with waffle fries and coleslaw. I also got mozzarella sticks. The food was insanely simple but so delicious. Everything was hot, flavorful, and satisfying.

Overall, I really enjoyed this place and would definitely go back!“

“This place is off the beaten path, but what a great stop. The locals there were super friendly and tons of fun! Nice bartenders, cold beer. We had their giant pretzel- best ever, almost carnival tasting!! Best stop in Beloit for a Sunday Funday!“

“I stopped in here on a late Monday evening. My first time in Janesville and it was for work, flight was late, nothing was open. SO happy I did! It’s a fun spot, very chill inside. I didn’t get to see the rooftop, which was a bummer (guess I have to go back!). Bartender was amazing, she cooked and served. Gave an excellent recommendation - their Buffalo chicken wrap and tots. It was heaven! They had a pool table, a dart board, and slots ? Hoghly recommend!“

“The Bartenders are the best!!“

“I really enjoy this place! They got the kitchen back up and running. The food is really good, and the service is always great! You get the feeling that they really appreciate the business. I can honestly say that a lot of us can't say that about the places we go and spend money. So .... If you haven't been stop in give them a try.

Parking: Lots of parking available and they keep the lot clean.“

“Local bar on prairie ave in Beloit WI. The staff is always friendly and attentive. I usually have a pineapple and Malibu, the waitress suggested trying rum haven which is a top shelf liquor which tasted very delicious with the pineapple. They also have slots, and a pool table. Very nice atmosphere, clean as well. They have food but I have not tried it yet.“

“Our family of five needed a quick stop for lunch off the highway and this place delivered. Very understated from the exterior, the interior was clean with comfortable tables and booths and fun sports memorabilia with many TVs in place. We enjoyed Spotted Cow on tap, some cheese curds, and the Rib Eye steak. Friendly and prompt service, clean bathrooms. The kids menus had regular fare with decent prices. The robot delivery was a nice extra.“

“Sunday day shift woman is amazing very kind and funny !!!!!“

“Bazinga is such a good time! From karaoke, to the themed events, and many talented Djs!! Its so amazing that Janesville finally has such an iconic spot to unwind after a long week and make lasting memories. We love Bazinga!“
