Went on Wednesday for a full slab of ribs dinner for $15 tasty fall off the bone ribs. The barbecue sauce was pretty good. The service was good so far this is all I've ever eaten there. read more

Been a customer for over 15 yrs now. They used to be the best in the county. But I don't know what it is, some years ago, things changed. The pizza is different. Maybe small recipe changes? New vendors? Different cooks? Not sure. But ever since, they've just been...okay. We went from ordering 3-4 times a week to once or twice a year, if that. read more

Food was mediocre, absolutely nothing special. But the real standout was the total lack of service. Waitress was a total bitch and I told her so. Asked to speak to the owner, was told he was busy, I said I would wait. The POS did not even have the balls to come out and face the music! Avoid this place like an STD! read more

very unprofessional and unorganized. who's running this place? Phone calls get picked up and hung up on for to go calls or most of the time no answer. The take out process is absolutely ridiculous and while you're in there you will see how rambunctious it is with children running around and grown adults screaming loudly. never again. read more

This was incredibly spacious bar and incredible Sandlot and volleyball area. This is a bar you would only find in a rural area and indeed this is a very rural area and one of the biggest and best sports bars I've ever seen this place place has a massive outdoor patio and overall is an impressive cool place and interesting vibe we're probably all the locals who are into sports and drinking likely congregate often there was nothing to complain here and there's more than enough space to for this place to meet your needs read more

I placed an order for delivery as I have done in the past. Whenever I call I'm told that Spring Grove is out of the delivery area. I live in Spring Grove, but I am on the Johnsburg side of Spring Grove. And up until today, it's never been a problem when they look at my address. The rude girl that answered the phone told me that they would not deliver to me because I'm outside of the delivery range. I explained the situation to her and told her that I am 3 miles away from the restaurant. She then told me that they could deliver to me, but it would be an additional delivery fee. When I had asked what constituted the delivery fee, she told me she didn't know. I asked her how many miles you had to be away from the store in order to be charged the additional fee. Again, but with an attitude she told me she did not know. I asked her why I was being charged an additional fee if she couldn't even tell me what the fee was for. When I attempted to cancel the order, she told me that she had already put it in. And would not allow me to cancel the order. What showed up to my house? A raw pizza. A pizza that is not edible . I will not be ordering from here again. This place is gross. read more

Halftime Bar & Grill - The All Star - Pizza Near Me - Johnsburg, Illinois

I called this establishment to verify that dogs are allowed on their patio. I was assured it was fine after the employee checked with a manager. We arrived, only to get denied because our dog is not a service dog. This should have been clarified in the original phone call. I waited for 15 minutes at my previous visit to get food to go. I rang the bell several times. It turns out our meals were sitting in the warming rack the entire time I was waiting. Never again... read more

Went with some friends that have been here before. Walked in and was approached but two very drunk old men asking for our ID's ( they said they used to work there months ago....I laughed and pulled my friend away from them.) I let the bartender know as we were ordering but she didn't care that there were young girls being harassed by creepy men!! We stopped at a bar prior to coming and had zero issues, when I walked up to the counter to order a drink at Halftime the bartender ignored me, and was asking for both of my friend's ID's that were on the other side of the room talking to some people they knew. They happily gave her their ID's and one of them has an expired license, so she was using her passport ID. ( as mentioned prior this has NEVER been an issue anywhere else ) Every staff member that was on site came to verify it AND was using her debit card to match the name. They questioned all of us for 20 minutes before calling management and eventually the cops. During that time though they held on to ALL of our cards and took them out of site which made us feel VERY uncomfortable. I had asked for my debit card back and the staff were intentionally ignoring us and looking right past me as I talked to them. Extremely disrespectful. The cops were super cool though and we laughed about it because what a fricken waste of everybody's time read more

Halftime Bar & Grill - 12" Deep Dish Cheese Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Johnsburg, Illinois

This place is horrible, bad food, too much horse play among the employees. There isn't a professional in sight! Don't go. I left one star only to post. read more

Halftime is our favorite pizza joint in the area. We normally order pizzas for delivery from them. The estimated time for delivery they give you isn't accurate in our experience, but sometimes it's quicker than they say so you can't argue with that. They have a pretty wide menu. We normally get a thin crust sausage pizza which we always enjoy. We also frequently order garlic bread or cheese curds for a side dish/appetizer. We went to Halftime a couple months ago to eat in and tried their BLT and ribs. The BLT has a ton of bacon and was good. I wish their fries had more salt or flavor. My boyfriend loved the ribs he ordered. We also got a couple of pitchers of cold beer. The service we received wasn't great, so I'd recommend just ordering take out or delivery and enjoying it at home. They also have daily specials so check out their website if you want to learn what's on special. read more

Overpriced food that's a task to chew, very rarely do I enjoy it. Sometimes Live tv usually has something interesting on. Pool tables and darts are the main reason people ever go there but in that respect it's underwhelming. read more

went to halftimes on Saturday for dinner and some of the football game. I am disabled and was unable to get into the restaurant , they have a ramp but unfortunately no one shoveled it and I forced myself through the snow. a nice man helped my husband and I get in and then when we left he stayed around to help us get out safely . Thank you to that man. This is a serious problem and should not be a thing. the food and service was great unfortunately if you are disabled you can't get in without assistance.. read more

If I could give zero stars I would I ordered 2 pizzas one with 3 toppings and one with 2 and 2 orders of "pretzel bites" for me and my friends what I got was absurd and gross the honey mustard was 10 days old and the pizza toppings where not evenly spread out I ended up paying 60 dollars for a meal with barley 20 in my opinion I wish it was better the place looked promising read more

Rude, arrogant staff even after a 900% tip. Will never go back. No "thank you" no even acknowledgment I was there.

Decided to come to halftime bar & grill tonight to watch the UFC fight and enjoy a pizza. Within less than 30 minutes, I was sadly disappointed by the service and atmosphere. We went to a beautiful table outside to watch the fight on a perfect view TV. One of our friends went inside to order a pizza. When approaching the inside bar, it was quickly noticed that the bartenders were chaotic and very unorganized. After paying for the pizza a the bartender gave me my card back along with my pizza ticket... which I was very confused by. I stood there for another 5 minutes waiting to flag the bartender back down. When she finally came back around, I informed her that she game me my food order ticket and asked if she was supposed to do something with it. She laughed and said "oh gosh! Thank you, I don't know why I gave you that.. I have to give that to the kitchen. Sorry!" After 1 hour of waiting for our pizza, a bus boy came to clean our condiments off our table. We explained that we still had not had our pizza yet and asked if he could go check on it. Ten minutes had passed, but the bus boy never returned. Another bus boy walked passed and we asked again if he could check on our pizza. 5 minutes passed and yet again, that man never returned. Finally, we flagged down the bartender who took the original order. We explained the situation and our current frustration. She stated the pizza had likely been given to another table and retook our order. As our patience began running thin and our hunger grew, we asked if there was a way to get an appetizer on the house or some type of compensation for waiting over an hour for a pizza that was never coming. The bartender advised us that she could get us one free drink on HER DIME. That no free appetizer or discount on food would be considered. She continued to blame the food runner and said she didn't make a mistake and for us to "just stop it now. That's enough". What horrible service and treatment all around. Would rate zero stars if we could. read more

Halftime Bar & Grill - Loved this food was very good - Pizza Near Me - Johnsburg, Illinois

We've lived in Johnsburg almost 4 years now and Halftime is a staple restaurant in the community. We love the pizza, monthly specials and the familiar faces every time we eat there. This review is not about the food, but about atmosphere experience. Since the addition to the building, I've noticed just a couple of things that maybe Halftime could tweak to make it a 4-5 star review. There are no baby changing tables in either women's bathroom. This is a must if you're going to have a family friendly atmosphere. The other thing that is really keeping us away right now is the noise level. The addition is awesome but now that you have the larger space, the music and loud speakers should be higher by the bar area and lower non-bar area so that people can hear each other. We literally left the last time we were there because our ears hurt and we couldn't hear each other. We have not been back since and have only ordered take out/delivery. (and no we are not old so don't blame it on that lol) Also, there are so many high top tables that if the low-tops are all taken, where will people with families sit? Halftime needs to invest in the high-chairs that can be used with the high-top tables or switch out some of the high-tops to the low-tops. It's just the little things that will make the experience for your customers so much better. read more

Very expensive and not so great of a pizza. Nobody in the kitchen was wearing masks or any other required PPE's while preparing food. The 14" pizza cost me nearly $30. Outrages! And it tasted like a card board. They charged me $3.80 for the chicken topping. Half topping in not half the price, it is 90% of the price. Don't go there. Go to Buddy's instead. Much better pizza and 1/2 the price. read more

Good pizza and staff did not like that they charged me for using my credit card . Do not cary that much cash with me and I refuse to let someone walk away with my debt card . Will most likely not eat there again for this reason read more

Very pricey now more than before. Ordered a 16" cheese n sausage pizza and a beef sandwich and it was $32.00. I understand cost increasing, but everything is ala cart now. I got charged $2.20 for the sausage on the pizza and asked for oregano. They were going to charge me $2.20 for Oregano.... seriously? Told to hold the Oregano lol.... Now we know how the building additions are getting paid for. It will be a while before we order from them again after this. read more

I have never actually been to half times but I have order pizza from here for delivery about a half dozen times and it is probably one of the best pizzas in the area. Delivery can be a bit spotty, for some reason they can't always find my house and one time they didn't find it at all and I had to cancel my order but what other options do I have... slim to none for good pizza, delivered in Johnsburg. So delivery, not that great. Pizza, pretty damn good. I especially like the thin crust. They get their crust very crispy, which I love. read more

Halftime Bar & Grill - Pizza Near Me - Johnsburg, Illinois

This place still sucks, ordered a 'allstar' and got waffle fries. They said I would have to put in a new order to get what I ordered in the first place. Are you freaking serious??? So I have to pay twice for something I never got?? SMFH read more

I ordered 2 pizzas at 4:30. They said 45 min to an hour. Normal. At 5:45 I called to see if it was coming. The girl who who answered said "it is next to go out" "Have a nice night good bye" It arrived at 6:05 Freezing cold!! read more

We ordered shots of Malort and got shots of watered down whiskey. We told he waitress it wasn't what we ordered and the bar still tried to charge us $6 per shot. The bar tender tried to blame it on the waitress but didn't even tell her we weren't getting what we asked for. Aside from drinks, the food was mediocre. I asked for a burger medium rare and they told me they don't do different burger temps. Burger was a well done frozen patty. The side salad was a pile of iceberg lettuce. This is just a noisy, crummy fast food joint with bad management. read more

Halftimes is a wonderful environment for any occasion whether it be a party, a night out with friends, or a family dinner night. This place is a staple in our community that brings everyone together. I've been coming here since I was a kid and it has never disappointed! They have the best pizza and the friendliest staff, check it out for sure! read more

Oh my, it's the hometown bar. There is beer here. That's this bar's only redeeming factor. Unless you're into mullets and Jeff Foxworthy, I suppose. The last time I went to this bar, I was branded a "spinster" by the bartender because I wasn't married at 27. Yeah. read more

Let me give you a breakdown of how my night at Halftime went. I sit down at the bar at 7:30 on a Tuesday night. Easy enough, right? Well the bartender doesn't approach me until 7:40, 10 minutes later, to take my drink order. She takes my drink order, a Miller Light, and doesn't deliver it until another 10 minutes! Mind you, I've been here for 20 minutes now and just got my first drink. At this point I'm a little livid, but proceed to order food anyways. I ordered the Halftime Big Burger. 30 minutes later it finally arrives. Here is where the disappointment really sinks in... The only thing big about Halftimes big burger is how much of a rip-off it is! For $9 I expect a burger of substance, not something I could find at the local fast food joint. The patty was small, under seasoned, and over cooked. On top of that, my fries were burnt! As much as I detest this place, for some reason I keep coming back. The $1 domestic drafts, beach volley ball in the summer, and drunken Johnsburg locals makes this bar tolerable at best. read more

I never have a problem with the food when I actually dine in; but I don't remember ever getting exceptional service. I always find it that you have to wait a few minutes before anyone notices you have sat down.... My one star goes to take-out. We ordered a pizza the other day and it was so burned in spots that it was barely edible. This is the black stuff that gets stuck on the bottom of the pizza when you don't clean your oven...really black. We called in like any normal human being would do and were told that a new pizza would be coming in 20 minutes (this is already after waiting over an hour for our first pizza that was promised in 45 min.) Someone actually called a few minutes later and wanted the first burnt pizza back, which we didn't have a problem with since so no one touched it, but that takes nerve!!! Did they not believe us? Or were they going to try and resell that pizza? I found that extremely disturbing and rude. Someone eventually called and 2 weeks letter we received gift card to use there although I'm not sure we will ever go back. read more

Halftimes! This is probably the one & only bar I miss from living in the northern burbs. This is where I started talking to my bff cause we were the only Round Lakers at the bar. I was all like "Hi!" and Stacy Y was like "Hey you're from RL!" And we haven't parted since, sigh.....anyway! They always have awesome drink specials, especially on the weekends! Out by me that is just unheard of! Love to hang out at the bar order some pizza & beer while watching a game on the tube. Or they have a nice deck outside to hangout & play (or watch) some v-ball. Every time me & Stacy Y are in the area we always make it a point to stop in for a beer. CRAZY MONDAY'S 12 oz. Domestic Drafts $.50 All Miller Bottles $2.00 All Bombs $3.00 TUESDAY 20 oz.

Waitress - "I just wanted to let you guys know our credit card machine just went down, but we do have an ATM by the door so you can pay with cash. They can't even get out to fix it till tomorrow- sorry about that" Husband- "Oh, so will the ATM fee be taken off our bill?" Waitress- "Well...it should be back up any minute, you're more then welcome to wait" ...cool guys. Don't expect too much and you won't be disappointed. They don't necessarily hire the friendliest people, the appetizers don't always come out before the food- but the pizzas good enough to deal with it. read more

Good pizza and good drinks. A nice little casual place to meet with friends or grab a bite to eat after work. The drink specials are always pretty good. The only negative (to me at least) is you aren't a UFC/MMA fan, I suggest checking their website or facebook before heading over. It can be a bit overly busy on those nights that they broadcast the fights, and whichever fight is going on will be on every single one of the 20+tv's. read more

While in the lovely community of Johnsburg, IL, the first question that I asked the Front Desk guy, in the lone motel in Johnsburg, was: "Where is the nearest bar?" He retorts, {Thick Wisconsin accent} 'Haaaalftime Bawr...ya know, it's just arounds tha cawner...walking dissance." Sold! Wife and I tote our bodies over to the Halftime. I knew as soon as we walked in, this was my type of dive bar. Everyone looked happy, and the bartenders / servers looked as though they could double as heroin dealers. This place was great! $2 Miller Lite drafts, served in a plastic cup. Yep, lovin' it! My wife's heavily poured 7&7, $3 and some change. The biker guy next to me kept on raving about the pizza at Halftime. He looked like a legit food critic, so we ordered a large, thin butter crust, sausage and pepperoni pizza. Damn, was this ever a great thin crust pizza. Albeit a tad greasy, it was really that good. Outside seating. Yep, Halftime has it...and a full volleyball court, where there seemed to be some serious players. Friendly service, a really good thin crust pizza, heavy pours on liquor, and a $29 bar tab (pre-tip) put me in a giddy mood. If I'm ever in Johnsburg, IL again, I will definitely return. A pleasant surprise. read more

Ordered a pizza from an online menu and when I got there it was $5 more than amount online.
