Laycoff's Tavern (near Granite City/Target, North Clinton St) - iconic place with good pizza…read more Laycoff's is a fun little place to frequent. It doesn't seat a lot of people. So...you might have to wait for a table. Unfortunately there isn't space for a nice waiting area. So you might stand up in the small bar area while you wait. It's okay. Things move fast. Enjoy the people watching opportunity. The team here is very friendly and welcoming in an odd way. They really are glad to serve you. Lots of smiles and friendly smiles. They are efficiently-friendly. They all move and talk fast. They are hustling to serve - not avoid. They will take a moment to get to relate...but not much more than a moment. The service is very good! The Sullivan family is very nice as well. Laycoff's is known for sausage rolls and a community bar environment. My wife loves her sausage roll. Full of tasty cheese surrounded by a light, fluffy and soft dough. The American sausage blended in with the cheese nicely. The menu has a small number of specialty pizzas (only six) along with build-your-own option. The prices are pretty comparable to other bars. On this occasion I got a 16" Everything pizza for $20. A 16 inch pizza was a LOT of delicious pizza. The pizza crust is thin. It is thin enough that almost every bit has a slight crunch. However, it was also soft enough to satisfy the less than crunchy crowd. The crust doesn't have much distinct flavor or seasoning. Just a nice thin crust. The pizza sauce was also hard to distinguish. The pizza is so full of toppings and cheese that you really don't see the sauce. The sauce that was they are blended well with the American sausage base. Now the best part - the fresh toppings! Laycoff's uses the Pizza King approach by using finely chopped toppings. The base of the Everything pizza is a finely ground American sausage. The base of the pizza so completely covered with sausage on the Everything choice. The sausage doesn't have much spice or flair as it is American style instead of Italian. The pepperoni is very thin. The fresh and slightly crunchy onions and peppers are chopped into small pieces. Even the green and black olives seemed to be smaller. The whole pizza was coated in delicious tasting mozzarella cheese. As I mentioned the 16 inch pizza is a large pizza. Laycoff's cuts the pizza into large pieces as well. This pizza could easily feed 3-4 people. Cold Pizza Test - I always want to try the pizza the next morning, cold, and for breakfast. This pizza was outstanding cold and as a left over. The coldness causes the mozzarella cheese taste to really come forward. The saltiness of the olives gets bolder. The bed of sausage and cover of cheese really help keep the pizza moist. The crust stayed a bit soft with a slight crunch. Overall, I really liked the pizza. It wasn't outstanding. However, it was really good at a good value. Dinning at Laycoff's has a sense of memorabilia and nostalgia. Be patient and enjoy the environment.

It was very busy. I saw everyone walking in and out rather quickly because they took advantage of the app and saved time. Note to self for next time. I ordered my wings well done and extra crispy, which they were. My only mistake was getting mild sauce, it was rather bland. I had to come home and add a little razzle dazzle to them to spice them up. I ordered 20 wings, and no I didn't eat 20, but if I did, mind ya business. LoL! The cost for 20 wings was just at $24, with tax! That's a great deal in my opinion. I'll try them again, but I'll use the app and I'll get the medium sauce.

My personal favorites are the cauliflower wings with fries, which have the same flavor and crispiness as buffalo wings, and the farmer's pizza. The prices are very reasonable, the restaurant is always clean, and the service is fast. This has become one of my favorite spots.

This was a lunch special. The Nashville wings were hot. I had one piece of celery, which was nice. They offer a ranch or blue cheese. The chicken was more hot than had flavor.

The facility is set in the back of the strip mall. There is plenty of strong signage so it is easy to find. The inside is very large. The booth seating is very comfortable. I was pleased with how clean things were at the end of a busy night. The bar was buzzing with conversation. The TV's weren't too loud. The Juke Box can be loud once it gets going. For dinner I had the wings in BBQ sauce. The wings were a moderate size. Not many small wings but none that were big. In general the wings had a moderate amount of meat to them. They were fried and bathed in sauce. The frying was appropriate. The wings were fully cooked without being dry nor too greasy. At times the wings were a bit over crispy. The BBQ sauce was really good. It had a sweet taste without a strong BBQ kick.

The best breaded wings. I love bone in wings but I get the boneless here, which is something I…read morewould never do. Who goes out to get over priced nuggets? But this place has the best boneless meat. It is thigh meat so it is never chewy, never dry. The breading is unique and seasoned lightly. The sauces are very good. The fries are coated and it makes them so crispy. I get the regular and it's more than I can eat in a setting. OH and the dumplings, its the sauce but they are savory and sweet. I would recommend a side of rice if you dont get fries and they specials are fantastic. Had breaded pork, it was similar to katsu with rice. My only note would be the time, they make to order so you will wait 10-20 minutes. If that is a problem, pre-order for pick up and they have a drive-up pick up window.
