Locally owned. Not a chain. They have a frequent buyer punch card. Good thing because prices not cheap: I got a small hot chai that set me back about $4.50. But I'm an ol' cheapskate. Only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is due to high prices. But like I said, I'm a cheapskate. Place looks like it was initially constructed to be a quick oil change place, and that's how it works for drinks too. Pull right up into the bay and they come to your car or you pull up to the window. They also have a walk up window outside. So nice to see LOCALLY owned, operated small businesses like this, instead of another chain franchise that helps homogenize America..

They were doing the best they could with the staff they had for the crowd they had. Ordered the beaded tenderloin. Holy smokes was it huge. Took half for leftovers. It was one of the better tenderloins I've had recently. Would definitely go back. Based on watching orders coming out of the kitchen, the tenderloin It's the thing everyone gets. Will definitely return.

My first review was taken down for some reason. So here we go again…read more. I actually went back to this establishment a few times because I wanted to give Stout's Irish Pub the benefit of the doubt. I thought maybe the first experience was just an off day for the waitresses. Unfortunately, after going back, I realized it wasn't a one-time thing. Each time, I've found the service to be rude, dismissive, and generally unwelcoming. There seems to be a select group of staff who are very close with certain customers and will spend their time talking with and befriending them, while other customers are seemingly ignored. I've also noticed staff spending a lot of time on their phones or sitting at the bar instead of checking on customers. The overall attitude from some of the staff gives off major "mean girl" energy. It's especially noticeable because there was a newer staff member during my most recent visit who was genuinely kind, attentive, and good at her job. I really enjoyed interacting with her, and she honestly stood out from the rest in the best way. The food is just okay and, in my opinion, lacks flavor. If you order it to go, expect it to be pretty soggy by the time you get home. I gave this place multiple chances because I really wanted to like it, but unfortunately the repeated poor service and mediocre food have completely turned me off. I won't be returning.

Service was great (we sat at the bar) and the ambiance is bar-like (nothin' fancy). Good prices too. Took half mine home for another meal later. OH, almost forgot....

High price for quality and quantity. Entres were fine price but lacking on the pizazz. The appetizer was expensive - I got 8 cheese curd sized "Mac and cheese bites" for $9... 3 tables were sat, one didn't even order food and left, the other table had two people and ordered before we even got there... We waited almost an hour for our food.

My memory is that everything else was a la carte - and the side dishes were overpriced. Stopped by again in December of 2025 - delightful experience!

They have lots of seating - but no televisions for watching sports. Will definitely return.

Classic roadside stand in Thomson for ice cream and fast food. It was on a drive along the…read moreMississippi River that we came across it, which is one of the few places to eat in town. Bear's Drive-Inn caught our attention with the big bear on the side of the building. Pretty basic drinks and food as expected. The prices are pretty good for the area it seems. About the only people who come here are the locals and those who happen across it whole coming through going to somewhere else. It was warm and we thought to stop here. This is like the local version of Dairy Queen it seems. Got some cold treats including the Frazil. It's about $1.50 for the small one. This is basically a slushie. As for the hot food, it's basic. It's about $3 for a pretzel. This may be the healthiest food really. Other items are burgers and hot dogs. These looked pretty greasy from what we could see. Of course don't expect healthy. This is one of the few places to eat for miles. Has okay stuff but it's a classic. It's pretty easy to spot with the big bear on it. They're cash only, which is another bad thing.

Right off of Main Street it is located in the heart of downtown Pecatonica.

Always a warm welcome at Booties! There are lunch and dinner specials and a Friday fish fry. Live music and entertainment! Food is good, drinks are good and the people are fun! If you are looking for something fun to do - hit up Booties...!!!
