The food was excellent and plentiful, plus the staff was very attentive, always asking if we needed anything more; they even packed up the leftovers and sent them home with us. Their chicken strips were huge and their hamburgers were homemade, half pound burgers. Make no mistake, the room is certainly nothing fancy but it was decorated nicely. Most importantly, the price was beyond reasonable! I would highly recommend The Polo Room for a good meal or for any event you are planning.

For starters, we ordered Cheese Curds, which were served nice and hot, with a blue cheese dipping sauce. For the burgers, I ordered a Double Spicy Pub burger, which had two patties with pepper jack cheese and sliced jalepenos. Tasty and hot! My wife ordered their Trashy Burger single (I should have ordered a single - their smash burgers were BIG) which had mayo, mustard, American cheese and house slaw. The sandwiches came with chips or fries for an upcharge. I had the fries, my wife had the chips. The drinks were good, I started with a beer, but switched to Root Beer after the first one to stay legal to drive. We had 15 people there for the event, and the service kept us well served. This is a nice place in Polo. Driving west - stop in and enjoy!

Plenty of TVs to watch your favorite sports team and the pool table or two. Definitely give their food a try. Make no mistake. It is a bar, but it's a bar with great food.

If I could give this review zero stars, I definitely would.. The first time I went there was with…read moremy sorority sister and we had a great experience. But I forgot to take pictures so I couldn't do a proper review. The next time I went, was to order takeout. I walked in with my 2 very small Yorkie girls Khloe'and Paisley who were in an enclosed dog stroller. I immediately said to the people at the bar (it was around 5pm) "Don't worry it's not a baby, it's just my dogs". One guy said that he didn't care. I went around to the left side of the bar near the bathrooms and Heather said to me "You can't be in here with them, you're going to have to leave them outside". I said "They're my emotional support animals and I'm allowed to take them wherever I go. I have a letter from my psychologist. She didn't want to see it. I said that I just wanted to order some food to go. She came over with her pad and pen. I said "Can I see a menu?" I was literally dumbfounded. I moved to this teeny tiny town (3,000) from my previous town of 70,000 people. There are no fast food restaurants, no Walmart or Target, one local grocery store. It's been quite a culture shock for me. Especially the people. Most of them are nice but Heather takes the cake in rudeness and being tacky. I placed my order and asked how long it would take and she said 10 minutes. I asked her what beers they had on tap and she pointed to the tap about 10 feet away. I really couldn't see even though I wear glasses. The only one that I could make out was Bud Light so that's what I got. She brought it over to me and it was nowhere near a full beer. I got fuller beers in college on quarter beer night!! Of course I didn't say anything. Then Heather put the container in front of me and said....."Here's your food" She just bat a thousand and I'm sure that she doesn't like baseball. Even though I just received the shittiest service out of all the places that I've been, I still gave her a tip. Which she didn't deserve. MY parents raised me better. Then when I got home, I opened the container and I was mad because I paid extra for french fries and the order was extremely skimpy. I spent $16 for a chicken sandwich, fries and half a beer on tap. The food was good but definitely not worth the price. DEFINITELY not worth it to endure the lack of customer service. I'll never go back to dine in or order food to go. I strongly suggest that you don't bother washing your time or money. There are other places that are much better. Check out my reviews on Google.
