Good food, friendly service, and a little pricey but still worth it. I got a delicious sandwich. Wheelchair/Handicap accessible bathroom with grab hairs on both sides of the stall. I went there on a Wednesday afternoon so it wasn't too crowded but the ambiance was chill. Would recommend. read more

Way to expensive! Small portions with ridiculous prices! And they were out of 7 beers on tap and Diet Coke.

Solid spot for good classic American food. The cheese curds are delicious and the beer selection is pretty extensive. Only note I have is, if you order a salad ask for the dressing on the side - my salad was drowning in dressing. read more

As my family continues to try Lansing restaurants for the first time- this has been one of our favorites. Good service and solid food. I would definitely recommend the fish sandwich and get it again myself and my husband really enjoyed his hot chicken sandwich (although he liked my fish sandwich more). Everything was well seasoned and freshly made. read more

Service was good: quick and friendly. Unfortunately, the food was awful. The French onion soup had a weird aftertaste and too many stale croutons. The nachos supposedly had ground beef but it was difficult to find. It was mostly shredded lettuce. Not worth the price. East Lansing is filled with pubs with subpar food so this place is one of many bars with terrible food. read more

Harrison Roadhouse - Nachos "with ground beef" - American Near Me - East Lansing, Michigan

Let's start with the good... My family has loved this place for years (20+). Food is good and atmosphere is great!! The bad... Door Dash and delivery have taken over and actual customers in the restaurant take second fiddle. Hopefully Harrison Roadhouse figures out that patrons matter and can right the ship!! read more

These burgers were surprisingly so good!! My husband went to place the order and pick it up so I didn't get to see inside. It did take a little while for him to order and get the fo They take the edges of the burger and sorta squish and toast it around the edges so it looks like saucer. We had a beef burger and a chicken one. The beef one was so juicy, cheesy, and delicious! The chicken one was a little dry but the sauce on it made up for it. Really good!! If in the area, I would definitely eat here again! read more

I'd like to give you any positive feedback about the food, but we never even got seated. It was not crowded and they couldn't find a place to seat us. We were a party of 5 and asked to be seated outside. They sat us in a spot where the umbrella was broken and when we raised it without being aware an employee ran over and caused an unnecessary scene. When they tried to move us, they wouldn't allow us just to add an extra chair to a 4 top. Then, when we agreed to move inside there were no clean tables. We opted to just leave. They weren't kind or apologetic. They caused a scene and paraded us through the restaurant. It was rude and completely unnecessary! We will never return. read more

So we decided to go to the Harrison Roadhouse before our show at the Wharton Center. It had been a couple of months since we had been here and I always like the food here. Well, as we receded we were notified that they were training people that night, which is fine, you need train staff to get your product out. So the service was pretty good maybe a little slow, the bill was a little wrong but we got it straightened out. The Harrison Roadhouse has plenty of seating with many little cubby holes here and there that are actually little private areas with a view. Always can find a seat here. They have plenty of parking, not hard to find. I would recommend this place and we will be going back again. read more

My wife and I stopped at this nice establishment before our neice graduation, and let me tell you I'm glad we did! Beautiful old school bar, good drinks and great food. Definitely will be back for drinks and food again. The service was fast and friendly, and plenty of tables for large groups. 10/10 would recommend. For food we got the Smokin Turkey sandwich and the Chicken Caprese sandwich. read more

Stopped in for some breakfast and pregame shenanigans. I wasn't so sure about the tiny breakfast bar, but it didn't disappoint. It was simple and delicious. The eggs were fluffy, bacon crispy, potatoes were covered in some sausage gravy and the French toast and sausage were a nice good addition. The game day atmosphere is always a good one with Spartan spirit and GO GREEN/GO WHITE chants. Definitely a good spot to stop in for each season. The service was great and prompt for how busy the place was too. read more

I said at the bar and the service was very good. I had the chicken chili and was impressed. It was very good as well. read more

Harrison Roadhouse - The Award Winning Chicken Chili. - American Near Me - East Lansing, Michigan

I have been here numerous times over the years. I came here after football game. The parking lot was not full but inside was packed! We were quoted 50 min for a table, it took about 20 min until we were texted then seated. They have a full service bar. This place has lots of old license plates up in the rafters and MSU memoribilia on the walls. Its a great place to take your parents or alumni for a meal. My go to here is the chicken flautas. You get 4 rolled tortillad filled with spicy chicken and topped with melted cheese. One side of the plate has refried beans, the other spanish rice. I thought the rice was overdone and mushy. My friend had half a French dip with a cup of white chicken chili. I really like their white chicken chili, highly recommended! We had excellent service!! Our waitress was Emily and she is very nice and attentive!! read more

Harrison Roadhouse - Chicke flautas - American Near Me - East Lansing, Michigan

Met here for lunch with friends. I had previously checked out the photos, other reviews, and the menu on their website. From my first look as we pulled into their private lot it appeared to be a typical pub style restaurant. We walked in and were seated quickly as it wasn't busy yet for lunch. We had been looking at a seafood restaurant but made a last minute change to Harrison Roadhouse. Since I had been thinking about A seafood I looked over the menu and found Fish & Chips that came with Coleslaw and Tartar Sauce plus I added Clam Chowder for an extra $2.99 with my entree. My wife ordered the Avocado Chicken Sandwich and chose Onion Rings from a list of sides our server recited. For drinks I had Diet Coke and my wife chose water which were soon delivered to the table. The Clam Chowder came out next and it was hot and excellent with an adequate number of clams. Then came the entrees. My wife's Sandwich was delicious and the Onion Rings were crunchy and tasty. My Fish & Chips had four decent sized pieces of hand battered Cod filets. They were hot and crisp with an impressive portion size of Chips (Fries) and Coleslaw. We ended up taking half of the Sandwich and one of the Cod filets home. On the negative side our server did not check up on us for drink refills or anything until we were essentially done eating. And she did not mention that some of the sides, including the Onion Rings, were for an additional charge. It does say that on the menu but my wife wasn't aware that her order came with a side so she just picked one from those our server mentioned. read more

Dined there on a recent trip to E. Lansing. Typical sports bar. Lots of Spartan memorabilia. Our server was Lily. She was AMAZING. Friendly. Helpful. Attentive. Our party of three had fish and chips, salmon and salad, white chicken chili and clam chowder. Everything was tasty. The salmon was cooked a little too long. The sweet chili sauce helped to balance it out. Prices were $18 for fish and chips and the salmon. I'd return, but prolly not order the salmon again. Go Green! read more

Don't go. I think it's maybe for sale or going out of business. Prime location, mostly empty at 6pm on a football game day. Nearly nothing on the menu. $16.99 for burger and fries that wasn't very good. I almost put salt on the burger as it had no flavor. None of the items pictured in the other reviews are still on the menu. Sad. Somebody take this place over! It has a parking lot! read more

Seated us promptly and then walked by us no less that 8 times and when I said we were ready to order the waitress made a face and then said she better get the other girl. The "other girl" walked by is twice, then was just leaning on a table. Only 4 tables were full in the whole place. Never waited on us, so we left. read more

Great food, very friendly staff, all around great time! We sat at the bar because we feel the bartender sets the stage for how the night goes. It was great and we will for sure be back and bring our friends with us. read more

Trash charged me like 6-7 dollars for a bud light. Had some fries they were ok but ordered some of the chip dip on the side and they never brought it out read more

I ordered the fish and chips and the fish was tasty just a bit salty. But the fries were inedible from so much salt. I kept trying to drench in catsup but not helpful. read more

Harrison Roadhouse is a nice change from the downtown EL food scene. I enjoy the French dip sandwich. However, the quality is pretty average. It is a great option for a big group. read more

Decent food for the price. Friendly student service even on game day and very pleasant outdoor atmosphere especially when weather is nice.

It's been a long time since I visited MSU's campus, and I was looking forward to returning to this old haunt. I was very disappointed. Now, the place was crowded, but there is no reason to have to flag down a server to order drinks. We seriously sat for 10 minutes, and the waitress still would have passed us right by if I hadn't flagged her down. That's bad management. If that hadn't been bad enough, the food was cold. You would think you'd be pretty safe ordering wings and nachos at a bar, but the tortilla chips were stale and the nachos were stone cold; cheese hardened. The wings were cold as well. Unacceptable. This meal made me sad, and I don't like to pay to feel sad. :( If they're not careful, HopCat is going to put them out of business, and I wouldn't want to see that. There is room enough for both establishments, but people deserve hot food and decent service, even at a college bar. Come on, guys, get it together. read more

Great food and service in a Great Location. Waking over to MSU Basketball game now. T

All four dinners came out. Sent one back to be heated, returned cold again. Presentation was nice, service (Gabby) was great.

Less than 1 star. One person behind the bar. We canceled our appetizers after waiting 45 minutes. 45 minutes and no appetizers! And waitress told us we had 5 orders ahead of us yet. Not that we were hungry, but at least get something out of the kitchen! Went before a show at Wharton. Don't go there unless you have a couple of hours to wait. read more

We had a graduation lunch at this place, and not only was the food not good, but we found not 1, not 2, but 3 different bugs in 3 different meals and hair in multiple sandwiches. The most disgusting place we have ever eaten at would not recommend it. The manager did comp our bill, but only after the 3rd person found another bug in their lettuce. To top it off after all this happened instead of closing the restaurant to clean and make sure all food was good they kept serving everyone and threatened to call the cops if we said anything to the other customers. Please do not eat here! read more

Overpriced, subpar food. This place used to have great food 15-20 years ago. I'll never go back.

I love food and it's warm, and juicy, and moist. I love the fresh air in here. It's cozy.

Great spot to hang out and grab some food and drinks before a MSU game. They have better than average bar food and a fairly extensive beer list. They also have Titos Moscow Mules on tap, which is pretty sweet. Here's an important thing to know if coming on a game night. It gets busy!!! Very busy! So come early. You will pay $20 to park in their lot BUT they give you a $20 food and beverage voucher to use inside on anything you want. This is smart because it prevents non-patrons from parking here and walking to the game and it ensures people are spending money inside. The parking lot attendants are also on top of their game and always know how many parking spots are available. A noted their food is better than most college area bars. Their white chicken chili is so good as are their burgers and wraps. Drinks are strong and cold. But the great thing about this place is that there are zero college kids! They don't come here for whatever reason and I am A-OK with that. The crowd is mostly 30 somethings and up and while is it busy, it isn't rowdy and obnoxious. read more

SERVICE WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD. I went there this evening for a little time with the girls. Grab a drink, eat some dinner nothing crazy. BUT we ending up having the most wonderful dinner. Our server TIM B. was the best server I've ever had. He was a delight to talk to and I would go back just for him:)) not to mention he has the most beautiful eyes read more

Service and food were very lacking. Overcharged for food we never got. The flatbread is a joke with microwaved chicken thrown on too of grocery bread. read more

We have been here 2 times when dropping off my daughter at state. Both times the food was good, service was friendly and great and the atmosphere was like a sports bar. We all ordered sandwiches which were very tasty. The sweet potato fries are amazing! It's more mid price with a casual dining experience. read more

Service was friendly. Food came out extremely slow and was not very good (overcooked). They also had employees dropping f-bombs frequently within earshot of my six year old son while playing two different radio stations at one. There are better places to go. read more

Did not have a good experience this evening. The staff was inattentive and the restaurant was not clean. My son liked his sandwich, mine was OK but my wife's chicken sandwich was undercooked, actually pink inside. We would have sent it back but the waiter was nowhere to be found. Will not be returning. read more

You would think for a "roadhouse" their best meal would be the sirloin. However, I asked for medium and my steak came out well done. The "seasonal vegetables" were clearly just out of a frozen bag with no seasoning and the potato skins were tough and had no flavor. You know a steak is not cooked well if you have to douse it in A1 and I didn't even finish it. The drinks were subpar as well. The service was good and the vibe was so nice! I was so disappointed, everything was good until the food came out. Will not be returning here. read more

I took my daughter there for dinner tonight we ordered the crab Rangoon and the sauce tasted like mold and the Rangoon's tasted like they were rotted, my daughter had ordered the shrimp scampi and it had a over power of almost a dill flavor and the noodles were all clumped together. I ordered the roadhouse dip "French dip " and fries and it had no noticeable flavor or seasoning the dipping broth was soo watered down it was like dipping in brown water. The only saving grace was the waitress was very kind and prompt. The restaurant only had 1 other table of 2 people when we came in there so there was no reason for the lack of quality for the price I paid, I would not go back and I don't recommend wasting your money or time there. read more

Waited over 50 minutes for 2 nachos and 1 turkey sandwich. Food was cold, cheese wasn't melted. Waited 20 minutes for second drink/waters. Waited never returned to check on us. When we asked about drinks, waiter brought them 10 minutes later. No apologies or reason why the delay. Restaurant was not busy. Asked for boxes and the bill was incorrect. Waiter never returned. This use to be a great place to eat. Never again. read more

I'm on campus here at MSU looking to hire a graduating senior. This spot is right next to my hotel and I did not want to venture far. Service was very slow. They have a sign that asks you to wait to be seated but no one ever came. I grabbed a spot at the bar and the service was slow there, too. Bartender was confused about their local beers on tap. Not a good sign. I had a blonde ale which was actually quite good. The sandwich with sliced corned beef and sliced rib eye was pretty good as well. The dinner salad was old soggy. Three stars is about it for me. read more

Not a bad choice for meeting up with friends, having some beers, eating bar food. Avoid anything on the menu that isn't typical bar fare and I think you're okay. It's a bit loud if a Spartans game of any sort is on, but I've been in much louder trendy "intimate" overpriced Chicago restaurants, it's actually pretty comfortable in terms of ambiance, noise, service, and atmosphere for a sports bar. There were no deceptive up-charges, always good if you're out for a friendly drink, and the service was okay. read more
