Nice little local bar and grill! The food was pretty good, we all loved the fries! The kids PB & J…read morewas literally a PB and jelly sandwich which was perfect for my daughter! Service was good, the waitress was nice. I got the cheeseburger and they forgot the bacon but I didn't care too much. She took the bacon off the bill. The menu has cash prices so if you plan on using a credit card I believe it was a 4% up charge.

Where to start. My husband and I were camping locally and stumbled on this gem in the cute little…read moretown of about 950 people near our campground. From the moment we walked in, we were treated as old friends. The owners were so welcoming and pleasant. This is also a pool hall where local tournaments are held, so feel free to enjoy a game or 2. They also have a pinball machine, which we REALLY liked. (Maybe a little too much ) We ordered some drinks and decided to try the Reeses shot and mini beers in regular and chocolate. They were DELICIOUS. Definitely recommend. On our first visit, my husband had the Buffalo Chicken sandwich basket, and I had the Patty Melt special. It was all so flavorful. The burgers are smash burgers, so they have the thin, crispy edges that I LOVE! HIGHLY RECOMMEND trying. Our next visit (the next day), we had to try the wings. They're smoked first, then fried, so they're nice and crispy. We had 10 hot and 5 each of the garlic parmesan and lemon pepper. They were served piping hot, and they were so tasty. The service was impeccable. I'm so glad we found this place, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to try a local spot in the area. You will not be disappointed! *They also offer a VERY reasonably priced Ribeye Dinner special every Saturday night. I plan to check that out tomorrow.

This place is awesome. And the food was made with love of the cook. And the service was so good.read more

This small hometown bowling alley is, shall I say, "Right up my alley"! It only had about 12 lanes…read morebut it has that hometown feel. Our lane had some difficulties and we had to be switched to another lane but the owner was on top of it and was super friendly. If you come in one entrance you see the bar and video games. The other side entrance, which I saw families use, comes into the bowling side. The place is kept up quite nicely. It does have the capability for food service although we didnt try it on this visit. You also have the choice of music in a digital juke box. If you have the chance come on down and spend some quality family time here.

From the owner: Bowl Inn in Jacksonville, IL, is a vibrant, locally owned bowling alley offering an unforgettable…read moreentertainment experience for individuals and groups of all ages. Beyond the lanes, guests can enjoy a full bar, an array of arcade games, and a well-stocked snack bar, making it a perfect destination for fun and relaxation. With lanes available for all occasions and the hosting of competitive bowling leagues, there's something for everyone at Bowl Inn. Additionally, patrons can try their luck with legalized Video Gaming Terminal (VGT) games, adding an extra layer of excitement to their visit.

I can't stand this place. The owner replies to every bad review with some sassy little remark to…read moretry discrediting the reviewer which only makes him look worse. Why not thank the fools that left you decent reviews? Grow TF up; you're running a business, not a Facebook page. If people complain just take it in and make the correction instead of making excuses! For you to accuse that one guy of being the person that didn't pay their tab is a totally trash response and shows what a low life you are. Seeing this type of high school energy on Yelp will make us pick somewhere else entirely. Ciao!

Of all the pool halls I have been in, this ranks #1 in customer service NOT being a priority. I…read morewas looking to play on one of their 9' Diamond tables as no one was over there playing, and was told that they had a tournament coming up with "Pros", and the owner didn't want anyone playing on them. I looked into tournaments coming there and the closest big tournament was in October or November. So I think it was because they didn't know me as I was in town for work. Not a pool hall I would recommend. At least I waited 15 minutes to be asked what I was needing. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE IF POSSIBLE

Freebird! Favorite bar in this charming burg. Pool tables , dart boards and a regulation size…read moreshuffle board for your enjoyment. Walk in and loudly demand a challenge on any of the tables! Its a great ice-breaker and you'll make friends quick. Usual beers on tap , usual beer in bottles. They also have Squirt. If you have never heard of Squirt it is the most delicious soft drink ever made. I truly believe it was only invented with one goal in mind: Create the worlds greatest vodka mixer. Mission Accomplished! Walk right in , sit right down and order a drink. Feelin a little hungry are ya? Order some peanuts or pistachios . On a date with that special lady? Order a pizza from the freezer. Its all good so you cant go wrong. Best bar in town in my opinion. Not some place you go to drink micro-brews that no one has heard of except for you and your friends. This is a bar. Beers. Shots. Mixed drinks. Have a drink. Strike up a conversation. See what you've been missing.
