Basic American bar with all the old school trappings, constant haze like Indiana overcast skies hugging the lights, predictable limited selection of brews, no drafts, fun menu highlighting the outgoing diner eager to promote karaoke nights and after work eats. Us three guys wondered in a Wednesday evening to sample the casual dinner. Found the menu with all the usual fare, traditional and reunion familiar, Lacks the adventurous spirit of other local taps like AJs and Town and Gown, but there are few places in town to fully let loose and ensure the kids don't show up. We found the mac n cheese a bit watery, lacking the punch of full flavors, more budget Kraft than craft. Beef Manhattan did better with some echos to vintage cooking however better options abound in the area. Service was done right, sense of family here and enjoyable long night community. read more

The peanut butter burger may sound funny and yuck. But good ol mighty it's the shizzz!! Friendly staff. Although, there is one bartender who isn't very pleasant, rude and snotty. And not mentioning names bc she knows who she is. But all around it's pretty fun environment otherwise read more

We came for the first time for Bingo night and were not very pleased with the experience. The staff seemed friendly at first but pretty much stopped checking on us after we said we weren't interested in getting food. Which I feel like not ordering food at a bar is not uncommon. People go to bars to drink. The rest of this review isn't really something the bar can control but there was just not a good atmosphere. Patrons were making undertone racist jokes and other inappropriate commentary. The only other complaint I have is that the restrooms were very small and not accessible at all. We have definitely written this place off as somewhere we will not go again. read more

Rachel took care of us and was friendly and amazing ! She was so in considering how many pieces of bacon I wanted :) The food is delicious and the menu has many selections. Including breakfast all day! Five stars! read more

Visited the Linnwood Tavern at about 0730 on a Saturday morning. Social distancing was in effect and people had on masks when/where appropriate. Ordered the sausage omelet for breakfast and was thick and had an ample amount of cheese. It was very tasty. I have yet to order something off of the breakfast menu that was not superb. Very good breakfast. Saturday mornings are fun there because at about 0900 the bar starts filling up with people that are continuing the party from the night before. There is lots of music playing on the TouchTunes and darts being played at 0900 in the morning. Lafayette is a factory town so there are many bars/taverns that open at 0700 to accommodate the third shift crew. Linnwood Tavern is one of them and does a good job of accommodating the different crowds in the morning. The bar got remodeled and painted over the initial shutdown in the SPring and is very well done. It is a smoking bar so that may affect your decision to visit. The 'smoke eaters" do a pretty decent job while you are there, but when you walk out you can tell you were in a smoking bar. I am not a smoker, but it never has much of an affect on me. The Linnwood Tavern is a place for great breakfast and a good time, even at 0800 on a Saturday morning!!! read more

Lynnwood Tavern is a local neighborhood bar, nothing fancy. There is a small stage for bands to perform, and some space for patrons to dance. There are plenty of TVs lining the walls, as well as dart boards and a jukebox pumping out music. This is a smoking establishment, with clean ashtrays on every table. I haven't visited during the evening, yet, to partake in any other entertainment they provide, so this review is about the food. And the food is good. New ownership revamped the menu and cleaned the place up a bit. There are daily specials, and breakfast is served every day until 2 pm. The beef and noodles is awesome, just the right amount of food, at a very good price. Their pork tenderloin is mammoth, and the breading stays crunchy throughout the meal. The bun looks puny covering the huge slab of meat. I recently discovered Lynnwood's breakfast menu. Normally, I go right for the corned beef hash. But my wandering eyes fell upon this contraption called the stuffed hashbrown waffle: hashbrowns with diced green peppers and onions and your choice of breakfast meat, cooked on a waffle iron. It comes with two eggs, and toast/biscuit. It looks a little funky, but the crispy shell combined with the fresh peppers and onions make this an amazing dish. You only live once, so I ordered a side of sausage gravy to go with it.There was enough gravy to cover the huge biscuit AND the meal. I think I found my new breakfast favorite. Lynnwood Tavern now does accept credit cards. The kitchen hours are limited: 7 am - 2 pm every day, and 5 pm - 8 pm M - W, 5 pm - 9 pm Th - Sat. I would have given Lynnwood Tavern five stars except for the blast of smoke smell when you enter, and lingers inside. If you are a smoker, you probably won't notice it. The staff is great and attentive; when it gets busy they can be taxed so be patient. read more

Love their tenderloins, fries, fried mushrooms and SW chicken egg rolls. One of the best loins in town!

Best breakfast north of Main Street in Lafayette! I've had multiple selections and they've all been excellent. I think over the last year the food quality and selection has actually gotten BETTER. read more

Linnwood Tavern - Fun time with my brother!! Love this place! Atmosphere is awesome!! - Bars Near Me - Lafayette, Indiana

A nice average bar where they allow smoking and it appears as old school as you can find in the area. enter of screens for various sports viewing and there are darts machines in this corner bar. a cool middle section gives people two ways to watch the big game read more

Great bar and food. Unfortunately, the smoking ruins both the food and the atmosphere.

Good food, nice portions and a great selection. Whoever compiled the menus at this establishment has extensive personal knowledge of what folks in this area enjoy eating. read more

Don't overlook the Linnwood's breakfast. Sure The Wood is known for great live music, fun times, and great food. But if you want an old school breakfast get in here. They cook to order (I'm particular about how I like my bacon) but I usually get the sausage links because they are special. They are bigger around than my thumb; plump, juicy, and flavorful. Good coffee. You can't beat the service. Only caveat, they do allow smoking. read more

Would you please consider going non smoking?? My friends and I enjoy Linnwood but the smoking is a deal breaker.

Recent renovations by the new owner have transformed this place. The chicken strips were surprisingly large and much better than the usual bar fare. A singer and guitarist duo gave it a rockin' vibe. Plenty of TVs above the bar and along the opposite wall for sports. read more

Among our favorites, pub chicken wrap, tenderloin, B&G, and full order onion ring basket. Good service, fair prices, and as much as we don't care for cigarette smoke, it isn't all that bad. They do a good job of making it comfortable for non-smokers. Nice of them to offer breakfast items until 2PM daily. read more

This is a fun place to just be yourself and hang out with blue collar people. They have a band on the weekends and the bartenders are all very friendly. Good folks in there. read more

Didn't even stay. Went for breakfast on Sunday and it was a cloud haze of smoke and ashtrays. Not conducive to Sun morning breakfast

Comfortable seating, good pricing, and great service make this bar ideal for bands wanting to perform for a medium sized crowd. They do not take cards but do have an ATM inside. read more

The food wasn't bad and actually very well priced. However, the smoking inside was non stop and overwhelming, which is why I could never go back again. If u smoke then I would recommend. Service was poor also. Sat for20 minutes before ever getting menus. If I was just rating the food it would be a solid 4. read more

Today, in search of a home cooked meal, my co-workers and I ordered the meatloaf special. This was my first experience with ordering from Linnwood and it will certainly not be the last. The meatloaf, potatoes, gravy, green beans and roll were amazing! I can't wait to eat this again!!! read more
