Saturday night approx. 6:30 pm when we walked in for the very first time in this BAR/ GRILL , we waited inside the door next to a sign saying PLEASE WAIT TO BE SEATED, so we did for 10 to 15 minutes as the staff hustled around who looked up periodically at my wife & I along with the people who came in after us. however, NO ACKNOLAGEMENT was made to anyone coming in for dinner OUCH #1 ...as time went by, I finally asked one of the staff serving food , is there a host for seating? his answer was!!! WHEN WERE READY WE WILL LET YOU KNOW ! ( OUCH #2 ) so another 10 minutes go by and I look up at the same young man who is now behind the bar serving drinks, he Nods his head and points to a newly open booth I confirm with him if my wife and I should sit there and he nodded YES , great we now have a table. Time goes by we sat there with no drinks , menu or place settings for another 7-10 minutes (OUCH #3). now i notice a staff member with a pencil behind his ear who seemed to be a ''Host'' / server / bartender walks by us 4 or 5 times and looking at us like we had had done something to offend him. now I notice him seating another two couple's WHO CAME IN AFTER US and puts table settings along with menus on the table..... I ASK Him, excuse me can we get some menu's? His unprofessional BAR STYLE Answer was --- IF you would have waited to be seated i would of given them to you!!! OUCH #4 my answer i told him the gentlemen working behind the Bar told me to sit there so he plopped two menu's down and walked away OUCH #5 . NOTE * I'm out to have a good time with my wife, so I Really Restrained myself from telling him what i really thought of him .... bottom line -- it was a waste of my time as WE walked out and will never return .... However, we found a good meal less than a mile down the road at BUSTERS for much less and an efficient friendly staff . read more

McGregor Grill - Bars Near Me - Fort Myers, Florida

We went here because a person recommended it. It seems like they were either under staffed or in a shift change. They were a little busy. There was a quiet atmosphere at that time. We got the chicken quesadillas. Huge portion!! They come with guacamole, pico and sour cream this could be shared for sure! The chicken was a bit too spicy for my wife's liking but was good. Also ordered the 1/2 roast beef sandwich salad and soup. Which was also a good size portion and was also good. We ordered an appetizer of chips and nacho cheese which was good and enough to share! Over all the food is decent bar food. I will say something seemed off when we were there. Not sure what it was but we didn't feel welcome I get it that everyplace has an off day over all it was just okay. read more

The food is consistently good! The young men both goatees behind the bar , one has a little darker hair, the other one's a little lighter. I don't know their names, but the one with the lighter hair bust his butt every single time we're there. Great service.!! no matter how busy they are he does a great job. I don't know why anyone would go to Buster's or anywhere else to get a drink and some food read more

Great prices, large portions, ice cold beer. Service is great. Small local hangout, open till 2am. read more

It's not called a Reuben sandwich, but it's very similar. It's made with coleslaw instead of sauerkraut. It was delicious.

Our friends, who are regulars, brought us here for dinner. The restaurant has a unique, creative vibe - TV sets tucked into bookcases and books arranged on shelves on the walls. Mixed-matched chairs paired with tabletops add the the laid-back feel. Service was so-so. Our server was friendly and made small take with our friends, however another server assisting him didn't really go out of his way to be helpful. The menu is extensive and I was having a difficult time deciding what to order. Everything looked so good.. I decided on the blackened chicken quesadillas. They were okay, nothing outstanding. My husband opted for the Angus burger. It was juicy and cooked to a perfect medium. One of our friends ordered pasta and the other a Caesar salad. I now wish I ordered a salad as it was large and looked fresh and fulling. Oh, well next time. read more

Food - lightly blackened chicken Caesar, homemade increíble tomato soup and grilled cheese 1000% Service - Anthony and Bob are the best, kitchen is open late ... THANK YOU !!! Vibe - think more modern "Cheers 2.0" Place to go, lunch dinner or late night sustenance for service industry rockstars. read more

Amazing food and prices! When I ordered the chef salad and the bartender asked if I wanted a half or whole And he paused and looked at me when I said a whole-I didn't know until I saw it.. Over a pound of meat! Every thing there is a superior quality and generous portions with extremely fair pricing. read more

When we walked in, there was only one person working and he did both the bar and the dining room area. Never missed a beat! Service was still better than what other restaurants can do with plenty of serving staff. Food was great, cheap and well prepared. Highly recommended! read more

This has been our favorite bar for years, and we stop anytime we are in the area since we have moved. So the food is standard bar food, but done well, and it's got a huge menu. The prices are fair and the beer is cold, it's full at lunch so we always try to stop by in the off hours during season. read more

Never had a bad meal. Food and drinks are delicious. Service is good. Some servers can even smile. If you are tired of the chains and looking for some good home cooking this is your place. read more

The owner/ waiter was rude, even though I have been a customer for over 10 years. When I could not find him to tell him I was not happy with his attitude, I said out loud to the waiter I had to find to give me a check that the waiter who served me was unpleasant ( in other words), that waiter told me to go out the door and I did not have to come back. I won't. The owner was also rude to a neighbor lady and her lady friends who will not go back. read more

Relaxed atmosphere... Great Wings!!! Staff is friendly and attentive. indoor and outdoor seating available too!! read more

Honestly this place is a local gem. They have an extensive menu, but just about everything you order is exceptional. Prices are extremely reasonable for the great quality of the food, and the bartender Bob is always working hard and gives us top tier service every time. We walk in, he sees us, and he gets us our drinks before we have time to sit down most of the time. Also, love the music rotation ,and they are always showing music videos on the tv. Been coming here for years, and I can't think of one negative thing to say about this place. read more

The food at McGregors is always really good, the service is always efficient and friendly. I love this place!!! I love the vibe, they play great music and I have never been made to feel uncomfortable there! read more

3 of us went to the gill this evening . We where told there would be a wait of 10 mins. Not a problem we saw it was busy. We where told we would be next. As tables where cleaned off, Other people came in and and stood with us. We said there is a wait politely to other guest. They stood with us. They said ( where just sitting down ) as we stood in line. After the second group of people came in, we mentioned we where told to wait for another table. Those folk said (where not waiting ) as we are standing next to the "wait here to be seated sign " . When this happened, My friend went up to the manager the person who told us to wait. My friend politely mention. ( You told us to wait to be seated.) several times. The Maniger said " I will F----ing seat you when I am F---ing ready " and that is a quote. So we left. Sadly I would not recommend this place. Especially when the manager Used a F bomb to us when we where patiently following the rules and doing what we where told. read more

Our first visit to McGregor Grill after a recommendation and it did not disappoint. We were glad that we made the trip from Sanibel to have dinner here. Service, the ambiance & all of our meals were outstanding. The menu has a large selection, and we tried many different items. All were fantastic and we all left satisfied. We look forward to returning soon. read more

great food. great value. Service could be slow but worth the wait..a great atmosphere with games available while you wait.... We have gone there with family for 20 years,, I would say we are repeat customers read more

I used to live right around the corner from the McGregor Grill,... food was excellent... Stopped in today , my old stomping Ground... Service down the tubes, ambience still the same, clean restaurant like it's always been , I have been in the industry for a long time, and very sad to say this is probably one of the worst services I've ever had , in fact, we both felt like we were bothering him,, came In March 9th 2023 for lunch around 12:30, had to get our food to go ! Food was not that great either ! Definitely will never come back. read more

McGregor Grill - That's the salad it's ok, not posting the food I threw it out - Bars Near Me - Fort Myers, Florida

Food was fantastic. Waiter/Bartender was strange. Saw him pour my Titos and tonic into the glass. Barely any Titos. Less than a second for pour. Plenty of tonic. Told him all I could taste was the tonic. He said I will get you more. Little did I know he would charge for another whole drink. $16.00 for the drink. Not sure if we'll be going back. Big rip off. Come on. If you treat your customers good they'll treat you right too. Very disappointed. read more

Don't call them. They don't answer the phone. In fact they don't care if you do business there at all. On their website they have a happy hour (2 to 5pm daily) but they don't honor it. Service is slow and attitudes are apparent. I have done business here for 30 years. I will never go back. read more

Great good. Very popular local place, may have to wait for a table, but so worth the wait.

Normally good food and service. Lately slow, really slow, service with cold food. I won't be back until this is improved. Sorry! One of our party of 4 waited 15 minutes for her order while the rest of us ate our tepid food. Asked for the late eater to be comped and it was rudely denied. Get more help in the kitchen and more servers or prepare for the one and done tourists. Regulars are being disappointed read more

Had the best Fried Chicken sandwich, it was more than I could eat! Highly recommend this place, going back to try the big burger soon!

Worst Grill Ever. Slow service, lazy rude staff, indifferent bartender, cold or undercooked food. Or overcooked food. Give it up. This place should be a used car lot. I have two stars because they do have food and beer. read more

One of our local favorites. The food here is great. The soups, the salads the sandwiches, the pasta, the seafood, the side orders, the drinks..... EVERYTHING is good. Full of elderly snowbirds in season, expect to wait by the door to be seated if you come during the dinner rush. Don't go here if you need everything made special just for you. Fah get about it ! read more

Best dive bar in fort myers hands down, and the food bad *** too. If you dont like it your probably a snow bird expecting platinum service at a large bar ran by 2 servers. I really like this place and you should too. The food, drinks, and prices are unmatched. No one in town has all 3. All the workers are fun to drink with after their shifts and talk to. read more

Great food! We ordered Reuben Sandwich, Fish Sandwich, Pork Chop Special with asparagus and baby potatoes also fried mushrooms. All of thought it was delicious. We did come in with the dinner rush so expect a few delays at being sitter and served but it was all worth the wait. It a relative small restaurant. I take my hat off to the staff.... They were literally hustling, all three helping each other and providing a professional service to the customers. They could use an extra hand. Kudos to them!!!! ...and the cooks!!! We will be back. read more

Good food, good pour on the drinks. But the bartenders were so aloof that it did not make us feel like our patronage was appreciated.

Italian Combo sandwich was da bomb.. one of the best I've had..Ribeye cooked med rare and the Moscow mule. read more

I've been in this town for 35 years and this is one of my favorites! The food is outstanding and usually they serve late to make sure you don't go to bed hungry! Locals hangout here usually other in the biz workers although the service is here and there the food makes it totally worth the wait!! Both indoor and outdoor seating with games to play and it's a place you can bring the whole family. Outside pets are allowed so you can even bring your fur babies! read more

We visited the McGregor Grill after spending the day on Fort Myers Beach and really enjoyed it. The service was fast and the staff was pleasant. The Cuban was one of the best we've ever had! We would definitely visit here again. read more

First time, melt in your mouth Philly Cheesesteak sandwich. 2nd time, Fettuccine Alfredo w grilled chicken and mushrooms - one of the best I've ever head and HUGE. I'm picky about my food being hot, not disappointed with either read more

McGregor Grill - Fettuccine Alfredo w grilled chicken and mushrooms - Bars Near Me - Fort Myers, Florida

Stopped in on a Monday night for dinner with my parents and had a decent experience. A great "hole in the wall" place at the end of a strip mall with a few outdoor seating options. Inside was clean and welcoming with a variety of booths, barstools, high tops and regular tables to chose from. We kind of awkwardly stood at the front door longer than normal before a staff member appeared and said sit wherever you like. That staff got us silverware and menus, another staff got and brought us our drinks and then yet another staff took our order. So we never really knew who to ask or flag down when we needed a refill or extra napkins, but overall everybody was friendly. We ordered some appetizers, a salad and "sammich." There's definitely a wide variety of options to chose from so there's something for everybody! I included pictures of what we ordered which was Calamari, small Nachos, large Italian salad and an Italian sandwich. While ordering the waitress informed us that the salad was made with Romain lettuce(which was during the whole "scare" in November '18) so that was appreciated. Nachos were great - PLENTY of toppings and overall great taste. My dad said his sandwich was good but there was no way to pick it up and eat it since it was piled high. And when you order a sandwich, that's kind of what you want to do. The homemade chips that came with it were excellent though. The Italian Salad - almost impossible to eat. As you see in the pictures it was stocked with slices of deli meats and toppings without room to cut the meat and mix everything together. We picked at some pepperoni and turkey, dug down for a few pieces of lettuce but overall it was just too much to try to maneuver. Calamari I was definitely disappointed with. As shown in the photos the breading was too heavy for the delicate calamari. The breading reminding me of something you'd use on toasted ravioli, cheese sticks or even a chicken Parmesan. But it barely coated the calamari and we were left eating plain calamari rings as the breading continued to fall off as it went from the plate to my mouth. There was a line of TV's across from the booths playing music videos, sports, news & a trivia game on the TVs you could get a console from the bar to play, a corner full of board games and a dart board by the front door. Definitely some options if you want to stick around for more than just food & drinks. A perk you don't see often was the booths were equipped with USB ports to charge phones. My dad enjoyed it overall but mom & I are still on the fence. A place we would go back to but also wouldn't be upset if we didn't go back either. If/when we go back, definitely trying a burger as there were advertisements for them on the TVs constantly running. read more

McGregorGrill is the worst experience you could ever have. The food is not good and the owners, and Staff treat you as though you're lucky to get in there Skizzy restaurant. Unless you're of the rude kind The food is not good, and the owners, or whoever works there are the most low end rude, sickening people that you could ever encounter in a restaurant. They shout at our senior citizens here in Southwest Florida, telling them under their breath-"your lucky to get a table" people please take your business elsewhere. There are many businesses right now that really would love your business and treat you with respect and appreciation like you are a human being, and not a plop of Dodo. read more

I live in the area. I love coming here for their angus burger. Best burger in town. Service is great, the staff is friendly and accommodating. I eat my burgers rare and they always nail it. It is a great place for families, for a quick bite or a few drinks after work. I have also had the company pizza, fried fish, fish sandwich, and shrimp scampi. It is all very good. I also like that there are many side options- not just fries. read more

DONT GO. This place is the worst. The service the beyond terrible. They actually will completely ignore you and hope you will just leave. And if you get serve except it to be rude. Do yourself a favor go somewhere else law. read more

Very disappointed with the service. My friends and I visited last week and upon arrival we were told that it would just be a few minutes while they cleaned a table, 20 minutes later we were still standing there. We left and went to another restaurant read more
