Just celebrated my daughter's graduation. The Crossroads staff served our party of 30 with grace, ease and professionalism. Kennedy, our waitress was a gem. She was efficient, friendly and soooo accommodating. The food was delicious, especially the salads and onion rings. Drinks were good too. Everyone in our group was satisfied with their order. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming. Plenty of room outside on the lawn to take pictures. The chef cut up the cake we bought in. The manager even let us set up small sound system for graduation speeches! Crossroads made our day extra special! read more

I have been going to Crossroads for several years now. The service is always top shelf and the special menu is always interesting. If the chicken sandwich is on the special board do not pass that up. The swiss melt is my favorite burger offering currently on the menu. It is our go-to lunch spot when the office heads out to lunch. read more

I'm giving Crossroads five stars for its newly-developed veggie burger creation. I've been a vegetarian for 40 years and this is the best veggie burger I've ever had at a restaurant. The pesto sauce is the perfect complement to the black bean-based burger. Yum!! read more

A Lansing classic. Always delicious. Don't miss the totchos and Irish fries. Everything is good.

My all-time favorite restaurant, even during COVID. Great service, excellent food. Always a hit!

Great Wings. Go with the Mess variety. Can't be beat. Very friendly staff and a decent beer selection. Well worth checking out!

Visiting for Valentine's Day weekend from NJ stopped in before check in to kill time and gas bite to eat. Pleasantly surprised with the service and the food. Ordered provolone sticks ( not what I'm used to) a southwest burger and garlic parm wings. Everything was great!! Will definitely stop back.!! read more

The place was empty outside and we thought we would give it a try. Unfortunately, they claimed there insurance wouldn't allow them to have a puppy out back so we headed over to Salt Point Brewery 1 minute away and has some of the beat pizza in area and which is very dog friendly. So no idea on their food but this is the rare non dog friendly boozer in the region... read more

This week I was able to see another talent the Owner Jay at Crossroads has to offer...Catering! We had a Brunch that was just Perfect! The Food, Service and Setting really made our event special! If you are looking for a Caterer Please Contact Crossroads Resturant! Friday Night, We had Friends from out of town show up at the house, so we took them to Crossroads For a fantastic Fish dinner! The Food and the Service were Outstanding, Our friends were very Happy with this meal & our Brunch! read more

Stumbled across this little gem by accident. Delicious pub food - the Irish fries are a must, the specials are always great. This is a wonderful neighborhood place that is always giving back to the community. read more

I've been here twice and both times I have enjoyed the food. Their meatloaf is really good, but definitely a lot of food. We always order their wings too. read more

SO GOOD! The food (which we regularly get as takeout,) is aleays spot on. Great spot out in Lansing!!

I love it when you randomly drive by a place, decide to check it out on a whim and discover how awesome it is totally by chance! This is what happened to us with the Crossroads Bar & Grille in Lansing. What I like most about the Crossroads is that it's completely unassuming. It looks like a run of the mill bar that serves food. One side is the bar and the other side is the restaurant separated by a half wall. Sure they serve up your standard bar food fare but the difference is that it's amazingly good and relatively cheap! Tonight, my husband and I shared the special: a full rack of carolina style ribs which came with coleslaw, super tasty sauteed broccoli (who knew?!) and bacon & cheese grits "fries". The ribs were truly unbelievable....the best in the area in my opinion. They weren't slathered in BBQ sauce but covered with a delicious rub and cooked perfectly so that the spices formed an almost caramelized crust. We were totally stuffed for only $20.99. I was excited to find out they had Ommegang Abbey Ale on draft.....delicious with the ribs and oh so classy! After we paid the bill, our server came by with a complimentary brownie which we ate even though we were still full. A perfect end to a perfect meal.....the Crossroads Bar & Grille does not disappoint! read more

Definitely not what I was expecting from reading previous Yelp reviews. This is a dive bar that probably does very well for the drinking crowd. We came in for lunch on a road trip. I ordered the Chatty wrap. They were more than willing to accommodate the small changes to the order. The wrap was just gross. The peppers didn't pair well with the chicken and fresh lettuce and tomato didn't belong. I ordered sweet potato fries as my side and they came out over cooked and almost burnt. I was unimpressed and do not see the appeal of this place other than drinks. read more

Great stop for a drink and food. Had the wings and fried cheese curds to munch on. Bar service was quick and bartenders always have their A game. They have QuickDraw, pool,darts etc. Good size bar area with a large dining room in back. Plenty of parking as well read more

The young owner and waiter was very charismatic and friendly. He gets your name, remembers and makes relevant recommendations. The burgers are amazing! The Irish fries are pretty good--think fried potato chips with a spiced yogurt sauce. The restaurant is in the back. In the front, there is a pool table and bar. There is also a patio that apparently comes in use during the summer when they serve seafood and have clam days. Did I mention to try the burgers?! read more

Went to eat here with some friends and was surprised at the quality of what we got, considering the high praise this place gets in reviews. We ordered a burger, a pulled pork sandwich, and the southern fried chicken. None of these was especially good, but none was terrible - very middle of the road. The pulled pork (which I got) was lacking in flavor. I had hoped for some kind of distinctive homemade BBQ sauce or something, but it tasted like it came out of a bottle - very forgettable. That plus the copious raw red onions stacked on top did not leave a great impression. The fries were well-cooked and not greasy, but that was about it. Our server was nice, and kept our water glasses filled at regular intervals. The ambience was also a little strange. Hard to explain, but it felt like the restaurant was just waiting to become a bar later in the evening. Like the whole place would switch over to bar mode around 10pm and never look back. Didn't feel friendly like a local restaurant typically does. Overall, this place is a solid three stars, but no higher. Food and service that's pretty basic, but nothing special. read more

Never disappointed with the food...huge outside fenced in area for the kids to play and an outside deck area for you to eat! No lack of spirits here....Draft beers and plenty of bottle varieties. Service is great and the owner is awesome!! read more

We randomly chose this bar on a quick dinner choice. We found it on Yelp and it had cute pictures and a decent menu. It's a bit off the beaten path but the service and atmosphere was great. The Crossroads Poutine, Lobster Mac and cheese and Bisque was very tasty. Great choice! read more

Start with service, Love the waitresses, their wicked nice, but they are often forgetful and they don't stop by the table often to refill drinks (which those who follow me on yelp know I am a stickler about). The food here is pretty good though. The burger had good flavor, good toppings, like the bread and the fries are spot on. The ribs were pretty good too. Loved the bbq sauce (not too overpowering and not too much applied on top of the ribs). They were very tender, very juicy, lots of flavor and overall were pretty darn good! This place is only 2 miles from my apartment so it's definitely my go to place for food when I don't want to travel and I put this on-par with applebees in terms of food and service which is a good thing (read my applebees review). I like it here but definitely not the best food I've ever had, but still a big cut ahead of lot of places I have tried! read more

the burgers are huge and full of flavor. I had the Cowboy burger...for apps we got the Crossroads Poutine, it was excellent!

Food was great. Service, not so great... Waitress brought us our food and drinks and that's the last we saw of her. I hoped for a refill on my soft drink and finally went inside to ask for one, bringing my glass with me. One of the staff let the waitress know while I was standing there. I went back outside to our table. After 5+ minutes, still no waitress. I went back inside, glass in hand, and the waitress was standing next to the ice water and poured me a glass of that - apparently not realizing I was the one who a few minutes ago was hoping for a refill of my soft drink. By the time she came back to our table we were finishing up and asked for the check. Admittedly it was busy inside - but it seems like we were completely forgotten. read more

We have been big fans of Crossroads since it opened, but tonight the service was terrible. It wasn't busy and our orders were simple. Mine came quickly but my husband didn't get his until I was almost finished. My mother in law was a career waitress and once told me when things are late..if they are hot, blame the chef; if cold blame the waitress. This was clearly the waitress. read more

The fish fry is phenomenal. Kim always makes sure the service is always spot on! Also try the wings! read more

My friend suggested this place since we both, long time ago, knew the owner when he was our student. Great salads, burgers and fries....and although I am gluten-free, I ate the ice cream that came with my friend eating the hot brownie! Good waitress, large eating area and would have lived sitting outdoors if the weather cooperated. read more

Love this place- great food, laid back and unpretentious. The first time I visited here I was hesitant because it lacks a bit of curb appeal but I'm glad we went! It has become a favorite if mine and my husband's for lunch or dinner. The owner is a chef and does wonderful food that is mostly scratch made, great quality but still very approachable for all. I haven't had anything I dislike but favorites are their burgers, including a shockingly good veggie burger, their Mac and cheese and appetizer fries that have wing sauce and parmesan. Also has a great deck and yard area and nice bar selection. If you're an SU fan this is the place to go for games. The owner is an alum and makes it lots of fun. Check out Crossroads! read more

Nice place, good food... great service. We ate at the bar, and enjoyed the food, the people studying and the company around us. The fries are great! Sandwiches good and service is friendly. read more

We found this restaurant on Yelp during s visit to Ithaca. It was near our hotel. We were very pleasantly surprised by the friendly attentive service and great food. My wife had French onion soup which was delicious and topped with melted cheese. I had a special fried oyster appetizer and lobster roll. They have a reasonably quiet dining room in the back. If you're staying in Ithaca on the north side, and want a good meal at a reasonable price, this place is a great find. read more

We had 18 people in our party and showed up on 20 min. notice. Crossroads did an outstanding job: no wait, good service, great food, and warm hospitality. Irish fries with house mayo was a favorite of all ages. Salads were fresh. Sandwiches including burgers, reubens, chicken breasts, pulled pork, and cheese steak were all hearty, perfectly prepared and filling. Onion rings and quesadillas were all stars! Do yourself a favor and don't miss this place! read more

Not a bad establishment which is located just about 6-8 miles from the Ithaca Mall in Lansing.

Amazing place with amazing food. The owner Jay worked with me on an event and he was unbelievably accommodating especially on short notice! I'm always comfortable recommending this place to friends due to the amazing service and food because I know it will never disappoint. read more

Always so delicious! The Appetizer fries and Chicken Parm are our favorites. They add different entrees throughout the year, for new seasonal treats. It is a great local restaurant! read more

One of the best burgers in the area by far and I am a burger expert! It's a bit dodgy when the people from the bar are outside on the deck smoking whilst you are eating your dinner. This should not be allowed. Smoking and food do not go. Also there were young children around as this is a family restaurant. To note some of the patrons didn't seem to get that you don't walk around swearing your nuts off when small children are present. It shows lack of respect, manners and is just plain ignorant. The manager needs to sort that out! The choice of food is good, the wait staff are ok and the food is decent enough. I would probably go back on a quieter night as to not get smoke in my lungs from ignorants that should know better. read more

The atmosphere is fantastic, the food is very good,and I love the bar area, but unfortunately the owner is a thief. That's kind of a big strike that overshadows the good. He has been quoted as saying he adds "special tax" onto certain customers tabs. I was one of the many that was purposely overcharged. Because he is charming you fall for it and pay it anyways. DO NOT.. I REPEAT.. DO NOT LEAVE YOUR TAB OPEN AT THE BAR. Its a shame that such a nice place can be ruined by an untruthful owner. read more

First time experience and I can't tell enough people about this place. The bar has a total NYC feel and still really comfy/homey. Everything I tasted was sooo good! Nothing crazy too crazy on the menu, just simple and well cooked food. The mac & cheese, "mess" sauce wings & burger were soooo yummy!! I thought I had the most amazing waiter in Ithaca but turns out he is the owner who I heard was from the city, which def explains the décor & unique wing sauces. He was so attentive that we were just finishing our beers and he already had fresh ones :) He sounds like he really loves the family feel to his restaurant, just a really nice dude. I'm trying not to go back today that's how much I enjoyed this restaurant. read more

A large number of us went to the Crossroads Bar & Grille after participating in a local fundraiser. We were seated on the deck and as we trickled in they brought out even more tables to accommodate us since there was more in attendance than originally planned for. Everyone seemed to really like their food. Many people at my table got the onion rings as "a side" and really loved them. I had a grilled chicken wrap and it was very good. Jay, the owner, was present the whole time making sure that all of our needs were taken care of. He and his staff were very friendly. I had never been there before, but I personally felt very welcome there as Jay personally brought me my drink order and called me by name upon each interaction. I love the Ithaca area and would like to stop by again. It was a fairly quiet Sunday afternoon, but I saw that they had several corn hole games set up in the back and regularly host Paint and Sip nights. I am thinking that it is probably a great place to come hang out with friends. read more

This place is great. As for the comment on the owner being a thief, I would question that. The owner treats his customers very well from what I've seen. He's from the community and as a young business owner, he breaks his back to ensure you're happy. They've got a pool table, darts, touchtunes, quickdraw, and an AMAZING liquor selection. Great atmosphere and interior finishes. The food is good, nothing spectacular, but definitely solid pub food. Good beer prices, their drafts are fresh, served in the appropriate glassware (like previously mentioned), and they have $2.25 PBR 16oz slammers all day every day. The crowd is townie, but still open to everyone passing through. Not intimidating for a stranger. read more

Crossroads is a good place to have a beer with some friends, but their kitchen is hit or miss for me. they have a good selection of beers, although i do wish they had Yuengling on tap, and the place is pretty clean and has a comfortable vibe. the juke box is kind of weird though, it's an internet juke box but it has a lot of essential stuff missing from it for some reason. as for the food, the best thing i had here was the fried chicken. it was flavorful and had a good texture, and the mashed potatoes it came with were good too. everything else i had though i didn't care for. the mac n cheese was kinda bland, and the fries are house cut but i don't think they do a good job of cooking them, the insides don't get done enough and they weren't crisp at all. i tried the buffalo wings and the house wings and i wasn't really a fan of either sauce, the house sauce was pretty salty. the wings here are breaded, which i don't mind, but i feel like the breading fights the sauce and you don't get the full flavor of either one. as for the pulled pork sandwich, the menu said it's slow smoked but that's definitely not done in house, and once they put all that generic BBQ sauce on it, any smoke flavor it might have had gets lost. i suspect it's Austin Blues pulled pork, which is a pre-cooked product. it was too sweet and i couldn't even finish the whole sandwich. like i said, this is a good place to drink at, and i would try more of their food again. the owner i met was very friendly and i would suggest checking this place out read more

This place has good food and great people. The burger is great along with the philly and wings. If you want a good philly ask for the spicy BBQ its not on the menu but its soo good!! Go for the sweet potato fries as a side or the mac-n-chz... As for the bar it has an amazing back bar and nothing is over priced. read more

This is the kind of place you can take a big group of friends when you want to catch up over good food and drink. The menu has something for everyone--burgers, salads, ribs-- though the strength, in my opinion, is in upscale versions of classic meat and potatoes American fare. It was hard to decide what to order...so many interesting choices. The calamari appetizer could feed four people. It was *excellent*, served with two sauces for dipping. One was a garlic aioli; both were very good but I would have preferred a little more heat or kick in the sauces. I finally decided on a risotto dish with asparagus and grilled portobello mushrooms. Tasty, but a little heavy for a hot summer evening. Big portions, so you are definitely getting your money's worth. My companion enjoyed the prime rib which came with smashed potatoes and delectable green beans. We were too full for dessert. I definitely want to go back for lunch to try the burgers and sweet potato fries. I'm also dying to try the chicken-fried chicken, and sides like mac-and-cheese. But that trip will have to wait for colder weather, when comfort food will sit better with me. In the meantime...lunch, or a night out with friends to grab cold beer and appetizers would be perfect. Maybe sit on the outdoor deck and watch the sun go down. The bar was busy, with a friendly crowd who seemed to be having fun. I liked the low-key vibe. Service was attentive and professional. read more
