Checked out this neighborhood bar in LaSalle for cheap drinks. It certainly is cheap and looks it…read more 9th Street Pub is one of those bars located close to houses so it gets lots of regulars. Gets most of its customers from around. They have some pretty typical bar food if you like fried things. Bar and grill, with most of the focus being on the beers and cocktails. It's just best to not take chances and play it safe. The bar looks pretty divy from the outside, and rest assured it's like that on the inside too. Amazing that it's in the middle of a residential neighborhood. There must be noise complaints one can imagine about the crazy patrons. It's about $3 for the cheapest drinks. There's often specials including on beers and wells. Food menu has greasy favorites. It's about $8 for a burger or a sandwich. Loads of toppings. Big menu but most of it is meaty. There's a few things made with avocado and sprouts, but usually in combination with bacon or something. For sure it has a lot of choices if you're looking for typical bar food. It's located on the street it's named for obviously. They're even open for breakfast, so you can get your drinking on early, while getting eggs and whatever.

John the owner was very friendly and in addition to great stories to share, he also talked my brother and I into ordering a damn good Reuben. I didn't think you could find places anymore with great prices....but I could have ordered nearly anything off the menu and paid twice as much in my hometown. It's good to see places like this that have survived the pandemic. The bar is covered with stickers of bands that have played there, another plus that they support area music!

They even list the farms where the ingrediants came from on the menu. When I arrived I had to use the washroom. Not only was it clean but it was stocked with cotton towels. I knew that this was a good omen of things to come. My husband and I had the grilled cheese and tomato soup and the grass fed hamburger. This may have been the biggest and most pack grilled cheese I've ever had. The hamburger was good but the potatoes that came with it stole the show. Since the entrees were so good we were excited to try the desert. We ordered the homemade chocolate peanut bourbon pie. This had the consistency of a pecan pie and was very rich. Everything was great at Thyme Craft Kitchen. It comes highly recommended!

However, my bacon was delicious and perfectly cooked, my niece loved her Mickey pancake, and my sister's Benedict was fantastic. Biscuits and gravy reviews from the table were decent.

I know the difference in proteins. Since when is boneless skinless chicken breast round. Cut into 3 progressively smaller round circles. All with thin layer of fat on a side.

I have been breaking down whole chickens since I was was 13. Chicken breast does not come round. Come on people. Mistakes are made. Admit it and move on. I will reluctantly go back. Not because of the mistake but the less than truthful answer when the error was brought to their attention. I have attached a photo chicken or pork loin. Me, hubs and sons say pork. Does not taste like chicken. Does not look like boneless skinless chicken breast. Does not gave the same texture of chicken breast.

Damn place has too many selections that are not really selections because everything tasted so good…read moreI had to stop tasting or I would have had to buy them out and my credit card only allows so much before it reports me to my wife. I do NOT like bourbon. Yet, somehow, tasting theirs made me decide that it is just some bourbons I don't like. And may I also add, that I do not like rum as a sipping drink, it only belongs in a coke as a teenager. Their rum (specifically the navy strength rum) holy cow, a perfect sipping "whiskey." NOW, I come to the liquors I like, nay love, as life itself. Scotch whiskey...... they don't make it..... ok then my other favorite nectar of the gods, TEQUILA.... Specifically repasado or anejo. In this case, theirs is called "rested tequila." It is sweet for tequila, but only for "unsweetened tequila" meaning no added BS or sugar (which surprisingly some big labels use.) it has a profile similar but BETTER and less sweet than Casamigos repasado. It is really VERY good, not astringent and deceptively smooth so that it could be dangerous, time will tell. This place is worth a 20-30 mile detour to check out their tasting room and cave like atmosphere. It is a shame we were not at this place 40 years ago when I could have lit up a cigar. Oh well.
