    Rings of Kerry with Guinness beer batter
    Cynthia R.

    We visited Crawford's Corner Pub in Bloomington, IL for my husband to try their Almost Famous Pork Tenderloin. This is a true neighborhood bar with lots of Cubs, Fighting Irish and Guiness memorbilia. The pork was just the right size to eat in one sitting and he found it to be crisp, juicy and well seasoned. You can choose your own side, fries, Cole slaw, etc for $11.30. I chose a salad with Rings of Kerry, made with a Guiness beer batter for $9.50. I enjoyed the flavor of the batter and they were nice and crispy. My only criticism was that there was too much batter, not enough onion. Someone else might like them fine. After a couple, it was too much. Good salad. This was our first visit and we plan to go back. There were a lot of good sandwiches on the menu. Good service by Jessica, clean place and bathrooms.

    Fish N Chips

    Slid in the back and found a table on the patio. Not sure if I was supposed to go in the main dining area to be seated, but a waitress came and took my drink order within a couple of minutes. Great outdoor patio and even on the very windy day I wasn't affected by it. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. I gave her a couple of options that I had narrowed it down to and she highly recommended their Guinness beer battered fish and chips, so that's what I had. She was right, it was a nice portion of two filets of cod in a crispy light crust. The French Fries were prepared to perfection, too. Glad you fellow Yelpers recommended this place!

    The fish n chips were delicious. The portion was HUGE, enough for two meals. The prices are very reasonable. The restaurant is very clean and inviting. Christina provided excellent service. She was friendly and efficient. Jeet was very nice too.

    The Hamgover Helper. If you're indeed hungover... this WILL help you!

    There were a couple of missteps that prevented Crawford's Corner Pub from getting that 4th star, and my recommendation. We were at ISU visiting my daughter, and we needed a spot to grab breakfast before we left town. As I always do, I turned to Yelp!, and sorted my options by rating. This place came with a 4.5 star average rating so we figured why not?!? Crawford's is just an Irish themed neighborhood tavern, and if I lived in the area, I'm sure this wouldn't be my only time there. The place is quaint, and was definitely filled with locals.. they serve breakfast, lunch and dinner, and their menu features a few surprises that stray from the average breakfast menu. They do serve the standards - pancakes, French toast, eggs and bacon, etc... They also have 3 unique omelette offerings - of which I ended up ordering the Spicy Mommasita. It was served with steak, onions, peppers, spicy habanero cheese and drizzled with a mango/jalapeño sauce. The omelette itself was very good and had some legit spiciness to it - so keep that in mind if you don't like it hot. It was not served with hash browns, but rather 4 pieces of Texas Toast. The toast was completely dry, and there was no butter or jelly on the table. If you're going to serve someone dry toast, you really need to make sure they have something to put on it?!? Simple mistake, and had it been the only one?!?! Alas, we continue.... My wife ordered an egg, bacon and cheese sandwich also on Texas Toast. It wasn't bad, but it was very meh.... Nothing special about it whatsoever. My daughter ordered the Hangover Helper which featured hash browns, an open face biscuit, eggs, sausage and bacon - all smothered in sausage gravy. It was a nice large portion that didn't disappoint. It was good, but not great. When we got there, we ordered coffee.. the cream and sugar were on the table, and that's exactly what we got.... One. Cup. Of coffee. I'm not trying to sound like a dick, but you pay $1.50 for bottomless coffee (as it's listed on the menu), and you just kind of anticipate that means more than one cup!?! Again, an issue that is easily fixed by just having a server walk around with a pot of coffee for refills? C'mon man.. we were hangin' and really needed caffeine!! Lastly, we were seated at a table with no tableware. When we did get our coffee, my wife ended up stirring in her cream and sugar with the straw from her water.. not a big deal if we still weren't waiting for silverware after we all got our meals. There's nothing worse than having your meal sitting in front of you - you're hungover and starving - and you have no silverware to eat your food with?!?! Just another dumb mistake that, unfortunately, will most likely prevent me from returning to Crawford's.... That being written, their locals will keep this place afloat. I'm sure I'm not their target audience, and that's okay.... The omelette was pretty legit though..

    The service was great and so was the food! They have all kids of specially drinks…read more It's a cozy atmosphere. We would recommend!

    This was our first visit to Flingers. We chose it based on the reviews and pictures. We visited on…read morea Tuesday night. No wait time. We decided to sit outside on the patio, because it was a beautiful evening. We started with drinks and the cheese bread with marinara for the appetizer. We later placed a food order and decided to try a variety of things since it was our first time. We ordered pepperoni rolls, a thin crust create your own pizza with pepperoni, onion, and bell peppers, and a hand tossed Italian beef pizza. After a significant amount of time the waitress returned to check on us and let us know the pizzas would be out soon, so we asked her about the appetizer. She admitted that she forgot to put it in. She asked if we still wanted it, which we did, and so she said it would be 8 minutes in the oven. The food all came out within the next 10 minutes or so (minus the appetizer), and we dove in. It was all very good and we were happy with the options we chose. The waitress returned once we were finished eating and we asked for boxes and the check. The appetizer still hadn't came out. She apologized again and asked if we just wanted it boxed up to go, to which we said yes. Several minutes later a manager showed up and told us again, that there was a miscommunication and the appetizer was never made and yet to be placed in the oven. At this point, we asked it to be canceled and just asked for boxes and the check. Things happen, and the way they responded to the mistake is the reason I am still giving them 4 stars. They reduced our bill significantly and offered us a coupon for a free pizza on the next visit as a way to make things right. The waitress was great and the manager was very professional. We will give them another try next time we are in town.

    The corned beef was incredibly tender and full of flavor. The Brussels sprouts were different--they…read morewere shredded and mixed with sauerkraut--but they were still really good, even though they weren't like any I've had before. The potatoes were also pretty solid. The flavored tea was nice, it just needed a bit of sugar. Our waitress was super friendly and made the experience even better. She was enthusiastic and enjoyed sharing her favorite menu items, which I appreciated. The ambiance was very welcoming, and I liked how open the space felt. The only downside was that the host who seated us seemed a little short when asking if we had reservations, especially when I asked if they were required.

    First time and man, did not disappoint…read more Everything was amazing and it was hard to pick what to eat! Got a flight- moon jumper (smoky), black angel (a little on the burnt side), blackberry gose, pumpkin porter (spicy but not fake pumpkin flavor spicy). Beer battered asparagus for the appetizer- delicious! Crunchy which was great! Husband and I split a bacon pickle pizza (omg!!) and spicy chicken sandwich with wedges (huge, thick potato slices). Definitely recommend the pizza, so flavorful! Spicy chicken was both hot and spicy from the jalapeños and sweet from the sauce. Madysen was our server and was amazing and attentive! If it wasn't 2.5 hours away we'd be regulars! Lots of parking available.
