This place is simply awesome. I feel so lucky that I chose to stay out in Genoa City for my trip to Lake Geneva for the sole purpose of being able to find this place! This place had a super local feel, but it was very well kept and the staff was inviting and welcoming of all guests. It is situated right on a small lake so it has awesome views from the bar. I noticed that someone else wrote about it maybe not being the best place for kids, but I would say that probably depends on the time of the day. It is definitely a bar so be prepared for that. That being said, the food is great! I especially loved their wings with their signature rub/sauce. Very filling with so much chicken. We also went with a take out of the double decker pizza thanks to the recommendation made by our bartender, Jen! She said she is there almost every day and she was just the sweetest. We went back nearly every day during our stay just to see her and have some more drinks. Everything was super affordable and it is definitely worth the trip, even though it is off the beaten path. read more

We brought 2 couples with us to the rock bar. We enjoyed drinks and conversation for an hour or more. The bartender was extremely good and enjoyable! We ordered fish fries , appetizers etc. Waited a bit, when it came out it was cold... but even warm. Our bartender took the food back and apologized and they reheated it. The manager and owner were there..no apologies or compensation. We were frequent customers... they lost our business as well as others. read more

I wish there was somewhere else in Powers Lake. This place is lucky to have a monopoly out here. The food is decent, but the service is awful. Came there previously, docked my boat, and waited for 20+ minutes for a server to tell us we were waiting in the wrong area. Then we had to get in the back of the line behind people who just showed up. This weekend, I was excited to take my guests from Ireland for some fish and chips. I called four times before driving our boat over to ask about to go service, but no one picked up. After driving across the lake, we were informed there was a 45 minute wait for a table inside, they were not serving food outside, only drinks, and they were not serving food to-go. It was one of the most disrespectful experiences I've had as a customer, and I was super embarrassed as a host. read more

Yes. Yes yes. You MUST try this Powers Lake Gem of a spot. Their own seasonal Turkey Egg Rolls are back and shame on you if you have not tried them. Their entire bar drink menu is the best. Friendly owners Joe and Kristin and the bar staff and the best view in the world!!! All of their food is excellent. read more

We were sat down and then literally nobody ever came back. I tried to get one persons attention but she was busy with a table I'm going to assume had her husband and kids. I got aggravated, packed the kids up, and walked out. read more

While the bagel wake me up sandwich was amazing I will not lie it was rather tiny. They should offer 2. We had ordered scrambled and got over easy not a big deal it was still delicious. The hash browns accompanying the sandwich were more like fried hash brown strings. Could have chipped a tooth! The skillet was good and bad. Ham and bacon and over easy egg amazing. Hash browns and almost frozen cado slices not so amazing. Throw in the toss was limp bread so was not toasted at all and butter slapped on. Over all a very mixed experience but good and bad! read more

Alert! When paying with cash the bar gave us only paper money - shorting us 0.41cents . When we asked why, our server said they don't do coins. But then said we could get quarters... She was very confused. If the owners don't want to give coins as change, then they should round down the bill in the customer's favor, not round up in the bars favor!!! The food is great BTW. read more

What a nice time we had at the Breakfast with Santa on 12/11/22. Took the grand babies to see Santa and he was the best Santa I have seen. With Mrs. Santa and 2 adorable elves. A beautiful Christmas setup and Santa was so amazing with the kids. The food off the menu was great and so were the prices. I hope they do this again next year with the same Santa read more

My husband and I enjoyed a Friday Night Fish fry here. I had pan seared cod with baked potato, marble rye bread, and coleslaw. Everything was great and fresh. I appreciated the sour cream with cucumber and lemon, like a tsasiki sauce and that the coleslaw was lighter with a vinegar mayonnaise base. It was just missing a small serving of applesauce, otherwise this was very satisfying. Nice holiday decor overlooking the lake, great music and prompt service. We will be back! read more

Heard a lot about this place over the years so thought we'd give it a go on a Friday. Sat at the bar (lots of friendly people both local and probably from IL). Friendly staff got us set up with well made cocktails quickly and into the menu. Fish Fry did not disappoint at all and one of the better ones in the area. Place gets busy apparently so get there early. Can't wait to stop by again - great local tavern. read more

Ok I love a good fish fry, and they have a good one. Coleslaw not so good. Service is always good.

Have a house on the lake and have been going here for years. Went on 6/1 for drinks and the bartender working with black super outgrown roots. Was extremely rude, thought we were underaged with fake ID (25) said "I need to see some ID's now". Didn't greet us and didn't say anything when we left. Proceeded to slam our check on the bar and walk away. Also made us move seats at the bar so two guys could sit down. Bar was 1/2 full. Went 6/2 for breakfast and everything was burnt. Disappointed to say the least. Not many places go eat in twin lakes but we won't be back this year for sure. read more

Came in, only people at two other tables. All other tables were dirty. We sat at one and the waitress (receipt said Olivia) brought menus and utensils and laid them on the table full of crumbs. When we said the table needed to be cleaned. She acted dumb founded. She took the drink order, which took forever and set them on the table - still without cleaning the table. That was enough for me. The three of us left without ordering food. JUST GROSS - NO THANK YOU! read more

The fish fry is outstanding and a fun place to hang out. Great drink specials that won't break the bank. Definitely will be back!

Cool chill restaurant/bar on Powers Lake Good food and drinks Great prices Friendly/Hardworking Staff read more

This was a fun neighborhood/lakeside bar. Drinks were interesting concoctions even though I just had a vodka soda and the cheese curds were crispy n delicious. I enjoyed the house salad w/ blue cheese (lots of flavor & chunks of cheese) and the shrimp cocktail were true to their bragging right size. The bartender was gracious enough to answer with sarcasm all of my menu questions regardless of the fact that I wasn't going to order any of what I was asking about. Although this was your typical "bar food" menu I enjoyed the not so typical bartender banter. I travel for a living and it's always enjoyable to go somewhere that makes you instantly feel like a local! read more

we've enjoyed going to the Rock Bar 2 for the past two years. the owners have done an amazing job cleaning the place up and bringing a tremendous asset to the area, however last night we went there anticipating the usual excellent service and food. my wife ordered a Rueben Sandwich, which in the past has Beene emplarary. last night it came out with chucks of meat plopped in the middle of a bed of sauerkraut. in the very recent past the meat was sliced nicely. when we be out it to the attention of staff they were quick to say "we portion 4. ounces of meat per sandwich". we get it; the fact that it was chucked instead of sliced made the presentation look like an after thought. the staff did add more meat without charge. we will be back and hope this was an isolated incident read more

Love this easy, breezy lakeside bar - patty melt is delicious, my boys LOVE the wings, can go by boat or land! read more

Great watering hole with good bar food and lovely staff. Drove up from ORD and it was a great welcome to Wisconsin.

Fish fry was really good and the potato pancakes. Very clean establishment. Bartender that served us was one of the best bartenders that I've seen. Her name is Jen. Burger was also good. Fries were okay. Should have tried the tots. Curious about their other food. We went for typical food tonight. read more

Wonderful view of the lake, spacious and friendly staff! We had the burger and was perfectly grilled! Drinks were awesome! Definitely going back! read more

For a bar and grill, the menu is pretty sad. The salad, for the price was NOT worth it. The "platter" for the salad is the size of a small dinner plate, a little longer than my hand. The chicken was tasty. Shrimp cocktail was okay. The staff was polite, but she was also the bartender...she couldn't keep up. She spent more time talking with the couple at the bar than attending to the guests. There were kids and families around but the couple engaging with the staff was dropping "F-bombs" repeatedly and quite loud. If you're a bar and grill as it says on your Facebook page, you're going to get some families during the day, this was at 4 pm. It was a shame to see that behavior was tolerated by the establishment. I was excited to see something occupy this space, it's an ideal location. The views are great, but only one or two tables outside. The windows were dirty and cobwebs and bugs were overhead at our table. I hope you increase your options and work on the atmosphere. Otherwise, just be a bar... read more

Had lunch here during the week. We ordered the grilled chicken wrap, burger and cheese curds. Good food and friendly service. Nice addition to Powers Lake. read more

Food was mediocre at it's best. Italian beef was dry and the burger was improperly cooked. The bill for two of us was over $60 with tip and only one drink a piece. So many other places are a better value in the area read more

We'll we were all disappointed. The Italian beef Egg rolls were excellent! Must dip into the garlic aioli. Forget the burgers though... Good luck!! Waitress was nice! read more

Would prefer no stars. WI restaurants and bars when will you enforce wearing a mask? Patrons, servers and bartenders all mask less. Watched numerous people walk in including families. We were the only ones who wore masks. read more

I am so happy that Powers Lake finally has a well run bar/restaurant. They do it better than anyone that has been in that building. The food is consistent. The service is excellent (it was sub parat one time). We haven't had a bad meal yet. I just hope they can survive Ed. read more

Had fish fry last night with my wife and 3 friends. The was a new server, Friday night, his first day. Rough way to start, but he did great! Fish was amazing. French fries the best I've ever had. Atmosphere was clean and welcoming. This will be our new go to for fish fry! read more

The RockBar is THE PLACE on Powers Lake. Korey the bartender is phenomenal as well as Jen. Pizza looked and smelled so good.. but the sauce is missing something ( garlic? Oregano?) Meed to come up with a menu that will bring people back for more! read more

First time in here last night. Came in just before the kitchen closed, but they still made food for me, and idk what the house sauce is made of, for the chicken, but HOLY HELL was it amazing! Drinks were well made, service was fast, the bill for food and cocktails was nominal, and the bar staff was friendly and attentive. It may be off the beaten path, but this is a nice little place that locals know of, but don't share! Will go back again! Took off a star for kitchen hours, and lack of parking. Everything else is 5 read more

This place is absolutely amazing. The food is fit for "foodies" especially the calamari, the place is beautiful and located directly on Powers Lake, the bar stools are the most comfortable I've ever placed my butt on :) The wine list is extensive and my husband loves all the various beers on tap. There are huge TV"s for game watching and all sorts of games to play. Once you walk into this really friendly place, you don't want to leave. Powers Lake and Lake Geneva needed a place like this. We highly recommend this!! Kathi read more

Wow what can I say. The food was just bad in general. Had the fish fry which was the big deal and the fried fish was over cooked. From hearing so much about this place I would tell people to stay away! The works part was the bartender with the tattoos I think her name was Jen. She was so rude to us from the moment we sat at the bar. Rolled her eyes when we asked for new drinks because we felt they had no liquor in them. Was worried more about flirting with others more then taking care of the people at the bar. My wife went to the bathroom and even over heard staff joking about others in the bar. Stay far far far away! read more

Stopped in Saturday night. Had a great chicken wrap, cheese Kurds and chicken wings. Always good and a nice atmosphere. Well done!

Food was bad. Simple as that. Cheap ingredients, badly prepared and just gross. Wouldn't want to come again. Only drinks and appetizers is my recommendation! read more

do not i repeat do not order the sherley temple. it tastes like water. not enough grenadine and it is way to fizzy. so so so disappointed in this bar. read more

Visited on an afternoon, food limited to salad and fried menu. Calamari expensive and tasteless, onion rings gummy. Pretty awful $35 for 2, 1 drink, 2 beers and very bad food. read more

Best Chicago style pizza around! Thin and crispy great service Jen is the best! Love this little gem on the lake
