First time every stopping. The parking lot is super full but the place wasn't very busy. We sat in a dining area away from the bar (but really it's all just one place) We both ordered basic cocktails and I opted for the taco salad. He chose the smash burger. The taco salad was good. It came in a taco shell & I added jalapeños. The smash burger was really good though! Tasty, juice and full of flavor. The place is pretty loud for 6 pm dinner but I kinda liked the bar feel, makes me feel like a younger self when we went out all night. read more

I had an awesome time at this sports bar. The atmosphere was energetic without being overwhelming, and there were plenty of TVs so I never missed a moment of the game. The staff were friendly & attentive. The food exceeded expectations- hand breaded wings, great burgers, and fabulous appetizers. Signature cocktails to pick from & the selection of beers on tap was solid. It's the perfect place to hang out with friends, watch the game, or just enjoy a casual night out. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

I love Fozzy's! From the food, staff, to atmosphere they never go wrong! If you're question what to get definitely go for the smash burger. YUM! read more

If you're looking for a place that just feels right, this is it. We absolutely love the atmosphere -- it's comfortable, welcoming, and has that perfect local vibe that makes you want to stay longer than you planned. The food? Hands-down the best bar food in the area. Everything comes out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. Drinks are always on point too -- consistent, good pours, and plenty of options. They're always doing something fun here. From special events to weekly happenings, there's always a reason to come back. And honestly, the service is five-star every single time. Friendly, attentive, and they actually care that you're having a good experience. Highly recommend. This place never misses. read more

Popped in for a quick dinner with friends. They weren't really busy so the service was quick. We had wings with garlic parmesan sauce, a smash burger, garlic parmesan Boneless wings and a side of fries. The wings were the best wings I've had in the area. They were perfectly fried and the sauces were so full of flavor. The smash burger was pretty big and it was also pretty flavorful. The drinks were strong, especially the Mermaid Margarita. I was pretty surprised at how good the food was because I had written this place off as "just a bar". I'm glad I gave them a shot. read more

I came on a Sunday for lunch. This non football fan forgot it was NFL Sunday. That being said it was super LOuD in there with all of the games on. However, the loudness was mostly the TV and not so much the patrons so all good for me. I had a beef sandwhich with chips which were good. Extensive beer list. Fun cocktails. Our server was very attentive and it was super crowded. Floor was sticky. Parking lot is very cramped. Based on other reviews I would stick to the lunch crowd as all the issues reported seem to happen at night.... read more

My wife and I came here for happy hour after work on a Tuesday. Happy hour turned into happy night. We shared the buffalo chicken rolls and a mexican flatbread. Food was great, prices were even better, and the service was easily the best part. Our bartender was super fun and friendly. Trivia was the perfect icing on the cake. 10/10 will definitely be coming back more often read more

fozzy's has an awesome, laid-back vibe that keeps me coming back. their crab rangoons are a must--crispy, creamy, and seriously some of the best around. plus, their happy hour deals are great and the service is awesome which makes it an easy go-to spot. highly recommend! read more

Great food and always a fantastic time with service and atmosphere. Can't go wrong with your time here. Always a great spot to watch your favorite sports as well! read more

Can't wait to visit the one on my home town. Good food and fun music trivia. Very lively.

Being new to the area and a long-time Yelper from all over California, I was skeptical coming in here, if I'm being honest. There are so many points to hit on for this place, that I'm going with a PRO/CON list: PRO: -Asian Bowl was absolutely amazing (I'd consider a name change though, as it's not quite Asian.) -Singo is fun! (Wednesday night, 7pm) -Clean bathrooms -Tech forward (pay at table, like Canada) -Attentive serve staff CONS (mostly out of the control of the business): -Zero diversity with regards to race/ethnicity (this could be systemic or just the area, dunno) -NO microbrews. And, worse, our server looked confused when I asked about microbrews. (This may be a Rockford downfall/missed opportunity for small businesses, but I digress, maybe I need to open a brewery.) NEUTRAL: -Parking was fine, but seems like it could be a nightmare on super busy nights (had we not carpooled last night, my feelings may be different--towards the CON list). -Only house wine, and it's not good (that said, I'm from NorCal/Napa/Lodi regions and can spot a great/good/average/poor wine. This was better than boxed wine, or most house wines at chains like Olive Garden/Buca do Beppo--puke, don't drink those.) All-in-all, I'll be back. But, I would like to see some diversity, in both people and beer. read more

I love going to Fozzy's. It has a great atmosphere, friendly servers and bartenders, and great food. The bartender, Christine, does a phenomenal job. Always make sure you get your drinks and food quickly. She makes sure things are well organized and that you are satisfied--one of my best places to go. read more

Amazing food! Great service.! Will be back whenever in the area. Best bar food I've ever had! read more

Fozzy's - a bar counter with a bar sign - Bars Near Me - Loves Park, Illinois

The experience there is beyond disrespectful and disgusting! Management and security are trash! I went there for the second time ever to watch the dj play and was not only embarrassed, humiliated and disrespected by the management and security but also disappointed! Halloween party turned into worse going out experience ever in Rockford IL. I do not recommended at all unless you want to be lied to, humiliated and embarrassed and told you are the issue, not the lying security and refused to show their video recordings of the whole event by management, per management they have a lot of miscommunication issues with security but yet you are the problem not security! They are a rip off, they force your table to pay your portion even tho you are telling security you'll pay for it but security is lying their asses off, GM of the building has no clue on how to actually do her job or offer an apology for their wrong doing, it's trash, want more information, I will tell you detail to detail of how the night went... never will I ever go back there and I will recommend everyone I know to stay there hell away from them! read more

Me and my sister came in Christmas Eve for a holiday drink and Maddie was our Waitress. We had the best friendly service.

Always excellent food, service and ambience. Our group meets there for lunch a few times every year. Always great menu choices and excellent service. read more

A nice overall looking bar that is pretty upscale and more deserving than rock forever denise. I was overall impressed by this bar and is very clean and very new looking read more

Great drinks! Service is always really great and friendly. Food is decent if you are just looking for a quick bite to eat. Standard bar food. read more

Had the fish tacos. They tasted great but whatever flour tortilla they use is cheaply made because it's got the ingredient that wrecks your stomach up. Service was great. read more

When the waitress says she gave you tickets for all items ordered but you are missing 9. Wonder why you have empty tables. Gone down hill since the good manager left. read more

Short, sweet, and HONEST review of Fozzy's. Went on a Taco Tuesday night. Bartenders were pleasant and great at their jobs. The glowing bar is unique but gets annoying after about 10 minuets. Ordered a steak burrito and the mac n cheese. Burrito was decent and worth another order. Mac n cheese was bland but ok. My biggest issue, and why it's a 2 star review, is the prices. Way over priced drinks! 2 Tito's and soda (tall) cost me $11.50 with a $1.50 tall charge! Some may say that is an acceptable charge in todays climate. All I can say is I was not wowed by anything that would tell me to spend more here than at any of my other regular stops. As always, visit Fozzy's and make your own opinions. Support local! read more

Nice atmosphere, good service, large beer menu. Food was very good, nice variety on menu. Better than typical bar food! We will be back. read more

We have driven past this place at least a hundred times and never stopped. Now, we know we made the right decision. We came in for some drinks on a weeknight. It took the bartenders quite a while to wait on us. Then, we sat and watched the female bartender (long straight dark hair) on her phone texting for more time then she spent making drinks. We waited patiently for her to finish her texting before she made our drinks. She looked and acted like we were bothering her for simply asking her to do her job. None of the drinks were particularly good or worth even mentioning. Hard pass on this place for future events or even just a stop in for drinks or food. read more

I don't know what happened to Fozzys. I had a watered down margarita, it was a pale green color and had no flavor, no tang and I sure didn't taste any tequila. I usually love their nachos but they were lacking on the toppings which is so annoying. I don't know if I'll be back. So disappointing read more

Fozzy's - Daily specials! - Bars Near Me - Loves Park, Illinois

3% charge for using CC. Terrible business sense, won't be back out of principle, so many other good options in the area.

New owners need to get their act together website shows hours of 11:00 didn't open until 11:30! During a craft show definitely lost business poor Management read more

Cocky arrogant owner. Came for my friend Sherri's 60th Birthday party and Nick wanted me to wait in line with a bunch of maybe 21yr olds after Sherri just told me to tell them at the door that I was part of her birthday party. Trop Club has great prices on food and drinks which are way better than Fozzy's. They also play awesome music and has way better owners! Bottom line is, if you book a party or private event at Fozzy's, be prepared for your guests to wait in line with a bunch of underage people in order to get in. read more

Service is attentive and friendly. Good beers on tap and food is decent for sure. Although alot of restaurants have bowed down , we are happy to support those who don't . Rock on Fozzys read more

We had a great experience during St. Patrick's Day. Amazing server Maddie made sure we had an awesome experience all night. Thanks for the great service!! Would recommend to anyone!! read more

We close at 2am...yet don't let anyone in past 1am. Bouncers we're rude, whoever answered the phone was rude, idk why somewhere in Rockford or even Loves Park, thinks they can act that way to a paying customer. Terrible service, I'd assume even worse once you get in there. Either that or the bouncers just need an attitude adjustment, like you're a bouncer at a bar for a reason, act like it. read more

Never had a bad meal here. Burgers and the Italian beef are solid choices! Service has always been great too, even when they're busy. Highly recommended for lunch, dinner, or a late snack. read more

We had great food. The place is a bit loud for conversation but the food was so good!!

Love coming to Fozzy's. Always great food and the best service. Great specials and entertainment weekly.

Great vibe and bartenders. Drink specials everyday which is a great find. Haven't eaten there yet, but definitely will soon!

Trash ass security guards, always fights for no reason. The food is pretty good, I wouldn't come here past 9 o'clock unless you're looking for drama. The layout is terrible if they are busy, just asking for problems to be started. read more
