    Family friendly, pet friendly indoor and outdoor seating at Buffalo Creek. We loved hanging out here outside enjoying their light and bubbly ciders, seltzer and their brews. Every server we encountered was very friendly and checked in on us often to see if we needed anything -- and to warmly greet our pups. They don't sell food except for snacks, like popcorn and bison jerky, but there was a BBQ food truck while we were there, and nearby Kalayaan Festival happening at Brother's Field so we could grab some Filipino food. We cannot wait to return and try more of their beverages.

    Great atmosphere, beer, and service. Buffalo Creek is the perfect destination to spend an afternoon at. Beer sampler was $15 and great value. All the beers were amazing and the sampler gives you a good taste of what this spot has to offer. Can't wait to go back.

    A nice location to enjoy some delicious beverages in Long Grove with plenty of parking and a spacious interior. The setup of this space is great for small groups and even when busy isn't extremely loud where you can't hear one another due to the layout that helps to spread out the sound a bit. One thing that's great about this spot is the nice selection of different craft sodas, including the Buffalo Creek selection of craft sodas which seem to be a bit less sweet than major brands with a bit more mild of a flavor. The service is fast and friendly here and the decor reminds me of some spots in milwaukee with a lot of wood accents and beer related decor. Overall, a solid choice for a casual spot to get a drink, and a great place to stop by if you are visiting nearby restaurants and shops in Long Grove.

    The patio was closed for a private party on Sunday but we grabbed a table inside. Decent offering of German beers. Only food available were bison sticks and a variety of flavored popcorns, which were quite good. Service was awkward and far from welcoming. There were clearly quite a few regulars there and everyone seemed to know each other. We quickly finished our drinks in search of a place with a friendlier vibe.

    What a wholesome and sweet spot. Interior is a woodsy campground with a bar, Bench seats, and high top tables. On the weekend, they offer beer yoga; drinks include the beermimosa which is only served on weekends. They have an outdoor playground outside as well; great for families. Staff is knowledgeable about all the beer and very friendly. Highly recommended

    Beer for brunch, I arrived just as they opened at noon and had a seat in the bar area. I was here because the parking lot has power outlets and I needed to charge up the house battery in the Sprinter van. A friendly conversation with the bartender who was not at all busy on this rainy Sunday morning. And then, some time with the wifi to write a review and plot out where I'm heading next. Beers were great. Delicious and cold. No need for a snack as I still had leftover breakfast to eat later. All great stuff. [Review 20638 overall - 185 in Illinois - 1619 of 2023.]

    I came here with two friends and my toddler while we were checking out the town. We arrived around 4:30 on a Monday night, so it was pretty empty (better for me though so my daughter could run around more freely). They don't have food but they let you bring your own. As it started to fill up later people were bringing in their pizzas or other takeout. The interior is really nice and clean with lots of space and seating, along with an open area that looks like it's for live music. It was dark and cold but it looked like they also have a wide back patio area with more seats and some fire pits that could be fun to use. They definitely get into the holiday spirit with their decorations and music playlist (punk/rock Christmas songs and covers). There was only one bartender at the bar but he was really chill and friendly. I ordered a Cherry Rasp, which is their cherry raspberry amber ale, and I liked it! My friend got a flight; I don't remember what she got but she also liked them. I'll probably go with that next time! We ended up spending maybe 1.5 hours there and I also ordered a Beau Fleu (apparently pronounced "buff'lo"...I see what you did there) which is a double IPA and I enjoyed that one too. Overall a solid experience and I'm likely to come back again if I'm ever in the area, but I'll come on a weekend to see how it is when it's busier.

    First of all, this place is super cute. Too bad we visited on a gloomy day because the outdoor section was so nice! I was torn on my review as I didn't enjoy my beer that much. However, if you like lager style brews, this place would be your jam. Staff was friendly.

    My husband and I went to Buffalo Creek Brewing to play board games with some friends. The space is perfectly set up for this. The environment is relaxing and conducive to conversations with friends. We ordered the craft ginger beer and root beer that was offered. The bartender asked us why we weren't drinking when we had just ordered sodas. I did not like feeling pressured to order alcohol. The craft sodas were very enjoyable. I might or might not return, but I still recommend Buffalo Creek Brewing.

    First time at BCB, and I really liked it! You can bring your own food. A couple of buddies and I grabbed a pizza from Joanie's (I don't recommend it) and we had a few beers while we ate. Really cool vibe! There were 25ish people there on a Wednesday night. The couple next to us was playing Scrabble. Very casual, unhurried atmosphere. I got the Cherry Rasp, which was a very unique brew--a fruity amber ale. After dinner we went outside and sat under the gazebo (it was snowing) and smoked a few cigars.

    Kelsey A.

    Excellent spot! Big with ample seating and excellent beer. You can do a beer flight of any of their selections, which is a great way to try a bunch of things. I highly recommend the sours, especially the cherry sour.

    My son and daughter-in-law had their wedding at the Grove this past month. Their day was great…read morethanks to all their wonderful vendors they worked with but the unprofessionalism of the new banquet manager at The Grove's was ridiculous. It started by her adding approximately $1000 dollars of additional "charges" that were clearly 'included' in the contract if the banquet manager would have read the contract. The bride had to exchange countless emails/texts proving these additional items were included before the manager would remove them from the bill and would never acknowledge her mistakes. The banquet manager did not write most things down during discussions and this resulted in a lack of confidence that the wedding day would go as planned. It simply added unnecessary stress to the bride, groom and parents to the point as we had to remind her of the same things over and over again and even make 'day of' fixes to things that were incorrect. We lost so much confidence in this woman that we requested the old banquet manager be present the day of the wedding to help assure things would go smoothly. The final straw was when The Grove overcharged for the wedding cake by approximately $500 and blamed it all on the bakery. We reached out directly to the bakery and compared their invoice to the invoice The Grove provided and the difference of $500 was obvious. The problem was that BOTH invoices had the bakery's logo on them. So ONE of those invoices was 'doctored' to make it look like the bakery overcharged The Grove which was proven not true by the bakery! This entire thing appeared very dishonest and misleading. We brought this up to The Grove a couple days after the wedding(as to not affect the wedding day) and the Club Manager at The Grove promised to look into it. It's now been 2+ weeks with several emails and phone calls and NO RESPONSE AT ALL from The Grove!! All we are asking for is an explanation and a reimbursement for the obvious over charge. Anyone having their event at The Grove, please make sure you check your invoice thoroughly and be prepared to micro-manage the banquet manager on a daily basis leading up to your special day!

    Absolutely Appalling Experience - Do Better, Grove Country Club…read more I'm writing this review out of sheer frustration after being completely ignored for over two weeks by the management at The Grove Country Club. I hosted a surprise party for my husband's 60th birthday on March 28 -- a milestone moment that should have been joyful and memorable. Instead, it was an absolute disaster from the moment I walked in. I have never in my life been treated with such disregard by a so-called "professional" venue. Let me be perfectly clear: the service was atrocious, the staff was untrained and indifferent, and the experience was utterly humiliating. Your manager, Jake, promised a follow-up "in a couple of days." It's now been over 3 weeks. No call. No email. Nothing. That level of indifference to a paying customer is disgraceful and shows a complete lack of professionalism and accountability. Your bartender disappeared for over an hour -- allegedly hiding under the bar table. Yes, really. No explanation given. The liquor we received wasn't even what I ordered. The food? Inedible. I had requested a Greek menu -- what I got was a lazy, flavorless mess. The chicken and pork were dry and unseasoned, the vegetables were undercooked and tasteless, and the Briam? I've had better versions in college cafeterias. How any of this passed as "catering" is beyond me. To make matters worse, your staff helped themselves to desserts before the guests were even served. Then, at the end of the night, we were told to pour our own drinks from bottles tossed in a bucket. I paid for a full-service bar package, not a frat party. The lack of professionalism was staggering. Lisa, one of your staff members, was sweet and kind and trying to hold things together. But not even she could salvage the wreck this night turned into. I had to micromanage every detail of my own event, something I paid you to do. And what's your idea of an apology? A $100 gift card. A token gesture that does nothing to make up for a night ruined, food wasted, and memories tainted. Do you really think I'd wanna go back there after my experience with the horrible food? All I've asked for is a serious conversation with ownership. I have been more than patient. But i write all my reviews because I continue to be ignored, Put yourself in my position: would you be okay with this? I strongly advise others to think twice before booking anything at The Grove Country Club. My experience was not just disappointing -- it was insulting.

They are situated between Abbington Distinctive Banquets and Walmart. A more appealing and eye-catching sign would be helpful. They are open for open play on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 9:30 AM to 3:00 PM at $14 per child. Dreamland Kids is an ideal indoor play center for young children up to six years old. It is a shoe-free zone but if you forget to bring your socks, they can provide non-slip socks. There are a few small cubbies to place your belongings and a few small tables with chairs for parents to sit and relax. Water and coffee are complimentary. There is no food available for purchase and customers are welcome to bring outside food and beverages. We met up with a friend and her two daughters here on a Wednesday. Our two families' four girls enjoyed the soft-play carousel and the ball pit with a climbing structure and slide in the main room. The general color scheme is very pink and pastel so that was very appealing to our girls. The slide is tubular and partially see-through so we can see our girls coming down the slide without going into the ball pit. There are two giraffe bouncy hoppers, one pink and one yellow, and two sit-to-stand vehicles, one white and one blue. Our girls took turns playing with those as well. Beyond this area, you will find a toddler room with a small slide, train table, and toys such as wooden ice cream. We basically had the whole place to ourselves. All of our girls are under the age of five and we spent approximately two hours there. When we were done playing, the owner let all four girls pick a little prize out of their box. It was a nice touch and it made leaving easier for the little ones.

    My hubby and I went to a beautiful wedding at the Royal Melbourne Country Club this Labor Day…read moreweekend. The bride was a previous co-worker of my hubby's, and she had re-scheduled her wedding twice in 2 years because of the Pandemic. It finally happened yesterday without a hitch! The wedding ceremony was at the beautiful outdoor lawn area, with a simple elegant setup under a very big tree. When anything is hosted outdoors, cooperative weather is almost everything. We were fortunate that the rain held off and it was not hot. When the bride was walking down the aisle, it so happened that a pair of cranes flew over the sky the same direction as the bride! I got chills! I am so happy for her! The cocktail hour after the ceremony was on a terrace overlooking the golf course, so, it was pretty nice! The bartender that I encountered was very friendly and accommodating. I just wanted juices with not a lot of ice, he happily mixed 4 differently kinds of fruit juices for me, and it tasted and looked good! The banquet room was very spacious and elegant looking. Food was not bad. The Butternut Squash Soup was nice and creamy. I especially like the Amalfi Salad with balsamic emulsion, that the ingredients were very fresh. The main course might be the weakest out of all the food. I picked the Petite Filet and Parmesan Crusted Chicken Breast combo, that the petite filet was very small even to a petite lady, and it was medium well and leaning towards a bit too dry and coarse. The taste was good though. The other choice was Grilled Canadian Salmon that I cannot comment on. Both choices were served with dauphinoise potatoes, grilled Brussels sprouts, and carrots. A couple of the carrots were very hard. The wedding cake was really good, moist and fluffy, with very smooth and creamy frosting! There was also a nice dessert table with an assortment of sweets. The overall serve staff was young and quite efficient, with only a couple of waiters/busboys who would need more experience. Only one young waiter who served me coffee left a great impression of being friendly and attentive. I guess it is hard when there is a big wedding party to serve. All in all, it is a nice place to host a wedding, and as a guest, I did enjoy it!
