Food was typical bar food - nice variety of burgers and wraps to enjoy before seeing a show at the Woodstock Opera House. Tator tots were hot and crispy. Burger was solid. Server was willing to do separate checks for a group of 16. Decent atmosphere. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here, but it was super convenient before a show. read more

As a door dash order, I was impressed with how quick my order arrived but it soon became clear that it was quick because it had no seasoning. Potato soup had great albeit bland chunks of potatoes but with no salt, pepper or green onions it was flat with nothing to make you want to keep eating. Also, tip for your Togo orders: please invest in some disposable soup spoons and not just flimsy plastic ware. Think Panera or noodles and company. They invested a bit more for quality plastic ware. The Patty Melt was dry and flavorless. It was piled high with onions which I normally love but these onions had not been properly prepared as there was zero browning or caramelization ergo: no flavor. And how can you not send condiments? Whole meal was very disappointing and left me feeling like I was eating at a hospital cafeteria!! read more

Oliver's is a big place, with a lot empty tables (except on game nights). Oliver's has a different "Special" every day of the week. And they Always have a good deal on Chicken Wings. Their fried chicken is crispy and the portion is big. I wish there was a wider dipping-sauce selection, but the Ranch, the BBQ, and the Buffalo Sauces are all good. I recommend going on a Tuesday (the Fried Chicken "Special" Day). Bon Appetite read more

Stopped in for dinner, they run a special on Tuesday night of half price pizza, which is nice. Went with a sausage and pepperoni pizza, which was decent. Tired some of my daughter's cowboy burger with fries it was flavorful, nice and juicy. a very good burger and fries. read more

This is a restaurant and bar in Woodstock downtown. When we went on a Thursday evening it wasn't busy at all so our food came out quickly. The food itself was mostly good with good serving sizes - I thought the burger was a bit dry but thankfully I had asked for bbq sauce on the side which helped. The sweet potato fries were delicious. My family liked the salad but also said the chicken on top was dry, and the mahi mahi was good. Calamari was good but a bit salty. read more

Oliver's is a friendly, casual spot to get some grub or drinks. The atmosphere is low keyed, comfortable and welcoming. The food is good, although we go for adult beverages on occasion. Their gaming room is nice, private and fun. The waitstaff is friendly and on the ball. It is busy with all sorts of people dining, drinking and socializing, family friendly. We usually go during "off times." Give Oliver's a try, great place. read more

I am so confused. I spoke to a very kind woman yesterday over the phone who said they have gluten free buns and wraps. Today, I called to order my whole office lunch, and when I asked for a gf wrap, the lady I spoke to said they have no gf options, then proceeded to say "I have a party of 16 waiting to be seated, so you can just call me back if you don't know what you're ordering". Later in the conversation as I told her we need to order now, and continued to list off the orders, she started speaking to a co-worker about whoever told me they had gf options. She was very rude, unkind and unprofessional. Loved the woman I spoke to yesterday and hope she doesn't get mistreated for her mistake. Food was great. read more

Wish I'd known most of the customers were bigots before I settled in and ordered my food and tried to get some work done for lunch. Bartender was nice, food was decent, but people with sense don't want to hear regulars complaining to the bartender about people that don't speak English and "woke shit". The level of comfort in which he spoke exemplified the vibe of the restaurant. read more

Food is delicious and good value, service is good, staff is friendly and accommodating, atmosphere is good for watching sports and drinks are reasonably priced. read more

Average bar food with average bar ambience ina very par/pub food heavy area. A solid 3/5. I'd recommend but I wouldn't tell folks it's a must stop place. read more

We had an awesome lunch while touring Woodstock. Oliver's is just off the square which can make parking difficult. They have a soup of the day. Today was particularly cold, so we had 2 of their potato soups which were thick and nicely flavored with bacon. Next, we had salads and a wrap. Both the Mediterranean salad and the cranberry, apple salads were served with fresh, grilled chicken which was spectacular. Also, the California summer roll was excellent. We had great service. Restaurant and bathroom were super clean. Would love to return. read more

There was a homeless bum when I went here bugging people for money and the staff took care of a real quick and Woodstock's police were fast on the spot. This place is a cool looking bar that has a grill and a spacious interior with plenty of dining seating options. There's a big Square bar and overall this seemed to be a cool place inside to hang around. It also seems to be a place where people can bring their kids as with other downtown bars in Woodstock read more

First time here and super pleased. Moved out of Woodstock some time ago and would have been here all the time if it was there sooner. Great looking sports bar with plenty of TVs. Service was great, food was great. And the prices were....great, will def be back when we're in town! read more

My crab cakes appetizer was decent but my burger was not good. The soft drink machine was out of order so we had water. I would not go back and drop $60.00 again for 2 people for this caliber of food. read more

Absolutely Awful slow service, crab cakes were disgusting. Kids chicken tenders were undercooked.. music was on a loop 30 seconds and repeat.. homeless person asking for change. read more

Excellent service and great specials. Fun way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon. Outside patio is nice too. read more

Cheap prices and great food! Oliver's is a pretty new addition to the Woodstock square and is a welcome sports bar in an area that didn't really have a good setup for sports watching. There's a huge wraparound bar with views of the TVs and a gambling section. There's also plenty of indoor tables for group seating and a TouchTunes for jamming out. Friendly service and did I mention the chicken pesto panini is legit?! Will definitely be back. read more

Good service, food was well priced. Kids had mini corn dogs, my husband had the buffalo chicken wrap and I had a burger. We enjoyed our food and it wasn't very busy for an early Saturday evening. read more

We came here for our rehearsal dinner. Our venue is in Woodstock so we wanted somewhere local. They were able to accommodate and fit all 16 of us. The food, drinks and service was great. Our waitress did a good job taking everyone's individual order. No loud music, we could hear each other speak. I enjoyed myself, thank you guys!! read more

Stopped in here on a weeknight in early fall 2022 for dinner. We sat at the bar and service was attentive. Beers were cold, adequate bourbon selection to choose from for our night cap. Dinner salads were large and delicious! Prices at that time were very reasonable. Definitely will be returning to try more of the menu. read more

Our server Ellen gave us great advice and excellent service. Her menu suggestions were delicious. Thanks! read more

First time I was here the service was horrendous. Refused to go back because of how bad the service was. My husband went with his brother a week ago and they both got food poisoning from the "burger special" they offer. Seriously so sick from it within an hour of eating it. read more

We sat outside at Olivers by mistake (intended to visit DC Cobbs). We were pleasantly surprised with exceptional service from our server and all staff. I enjoyed the ribs, which were "fall off of the bone" tender with an expected BBQ sauce. My only suggestion would be to add more gluten free options and vegetables as sides. We will be back. read more

Service and ambiance was excellent. I didn't like the California Cobb sandwich I ordered -it did not have crispy bacon bits, they were soggy store bought pieces that ruined an otherwise delicious sandwich. But sitting outside was delightful and the server was attentive. read more

Stopped by this place for lunch. Great service and amazing french fries! The whole family thoroughly enjoyed their meal.

We were in town for a girls softball tournament and after calling a few places that could not seat us, I called Oliver's and spoke with Mandy. They were so accommodating to our team and the FOOD!! It was sooo good!! Thank you to Oliver's for taking care of Windy City Rage!! We will definitely be back next time in town!! read more

my new favorite restaurant in the square. We decide to try this place after growing tired of the usual bar food options in the square. our server was prompt and personable and drinks came quickly. The broasted chicken was the best! prices are reasonable. the kids meals were generous and appetizers delicious. can't wait to go back! read more

It was my first time visiting Oliver's Bar and Grill, I would tell you that the bartender was friendly, but the real problem was immediate food poisoning after eating their hamburger. read more

This is a nicely decorated place with lots of tvs for sports and old school video games. Wednesdays is $5 burgers and they were delish!!

We've been to olivers before during our travels the food here doesn't disappoint. The service here SUCKS takes forever for someone to come over and acknowledge you. The server seems to be obvious to what's going on. If you order drinks, water, double up you won't see them for awhile. It was so bad the couple we where with left a 37 cent tip. If you have unlimited time this is the place when you do get your food it's great. Bob R read more

Good place great location slow on service lack of staff.

Horrible Service! Staff was rude and served burned food to children. Will never return!

If I could give zero I would. Terrible service. We were seated right away. Took 15 minutes to get our drinks in. 25 minutes for our appetizers 1 hour for the food. Our order was wrong! Sent back over 50% of our order. WILL NOT BE BACK! Best thing was the kids chicken strips. read more
