Found this place while looking for a Friday fish special. And this delivers! All you care to eat either walleye (my fave!) or cod. Our server was brand new on the job, but she did very well. Good coleslaw and tartar sauce. The firehouse theme was basically some of the decor, turnout gear and such on the wall. read more

Inside and outside it looks like a good place to grab a bite to eat. I ordered a chicken breast sandwich and fries. The chicken was rubbery and flavorless. The fries were cold and soggy. Our server only came once during our meal and was never seen again during our meal. Very disappointed ! read more

Service is the best. Went for Monday chicken. Everything was great. Best chicken around.

Always great atmosphere, have always had a nice server. Food isn't anything spectacular but it's nice and we do come back, mainly for convenience and a quick drink. read more

Here is my short, sweet, and honest review of Firehouse Pub. This one is a long time coming. First I must say I have respect for the Prosser family having grown up going to the Hoffman House every week. Unfortunately, the Firehouse Pub lacks any of the quality the other restaurants once held. The mixed drinks were weekly poured and over priced. The fish I ordered was $15.99 for all you can eat. One would think that's a bargain until you realize you only get 4 little nuggets that are over cooked with soggy fries. Ordering more fish took ten to fifteen minutes to get 2 more tiny nuggets that again were overcooked. The best thing in the bar was the popcorn which looked like the staff neglected to check on since the beginning of dinner service. All of these things can be a day to day issue or overlooked, but what earned this establishment the low rating was its cleanliness. MULTIPLE times I have gone to find dirt, cobwebs, leaking ceilings with buckets on tables, and bugs waiting to greet me. Tonight I found ants crawling on the bar while eating my food. In all, I want to love this bar but there are simply too many better options out there that know how to clean and pour better drinks at an affordable price. As always, give the Firehouse Pub a try and form your own opinion. Eat local!!! read more

Food was bad. Server seemed bothered by having to wait on us. She walked away while my wife was trying give her order. Only to go to the bar and roll silverware. read more

Food was ok. Service was good. We used the back entrance, not sure if we should have used the front for a different experience. Went on a Friday night, not sure if it's a sit yourself or what type of place (we sat ourselves.. didn't see any host or anything or anyone waiting to be sat for that matter). Ordered the wings for an app, they were ok. Had the fish and broasted chicken and my partner had a steak sandwich. Nothing overwhelmingly good like we need to come back again right away. read more

Accommodating staff. Could use more vegetarian options. Burgers were good! Good addition to this town. We were just passing through on the way to Rockford. read more

We had a quick lunch at the Firehouse Pub. Very nice inside. Menu had burgers, wraps, salads, pizza, and a great selection of sandwhiches. The bake beans were so good as a sidedish. Our waitress was really nice and checked on us often. We were waited on right away. They were busy but plenty of seating. This is a nice place to visit and relax on a Saturday afternoon. I would recommend this place if you are driving through Roscoe. Looks like there is outdoor seating. Parking lot on the side of the building. read more

We live in Roscoe and this is our go to mainly because we LOVE their artichoke dip! It comes with this delicious bread and is to die for. My only complaint is a few times it's had jalapeños in it. I can't do anything spicy so I'm not sure why sometimes it has them but most the times it doesn't. I also get the potato skins every time. Love them. Customer service is always good. read more

The wings are absolutely fantastic!!! Definitely try them! We have gone there many times. The servers and bartenders are super cool and nice! read more

We have gone a couple times and each time service is very slow! The food was ok but by the time we got it we were just ready to go home. No kids menu read more

Firehouse is a great spot for food. Especially their Friday fish fry. AYCE cod or walleye! Mix and match and you can't go wrong. Their southwest egg rolls are worth it for sure! The amazing item was the house chips. They are homemade and onion flavor, they give you a cup of sour cream to dip and it's like the best sour cream and onion chip ever! read more

Have been there with family and with a group of high school boys bowling team. Very clean and superb staff. There hamburgers are to die for. If you leave hungry that's your own fault read more

It's a great place to come in and have a cocktail, I don't really recommend the food, it has great atmosphere, the service is very slow..and the food consistently below average at best. read more

Would love to give 0. Quite possibly the worst restaurant, server and food I've ever had or been to. Service took forever, multiple times I tried to leave but my wife would not let us. When we finally got our food it was not good, son ordered boneless wings and literally got the driest (like cardboard) chicken breast cut into square chunks I've ever had. Then I tried my giant fried chicken sandwich. Wow it was even dryer then the fake wings. I took a bite added more mayo still unbearable. Add more mayo and just couldn't even chew it. It was horrible. My oldest daughter ordered a smash burger without mustard and onions and it came with mustard. She got part it by adding so much ketchup you really couldn't tell there was meat. My youngest daughter ordered grilled cheese kids meal with tots. She did receive a warm cheese sandwich but as she described it, this is NOT a grilled cheese it looks like they left out in the Sun to dry the bread out. My son took 2 bites of his wings, my youngest daughter never touched her dried out cheese sandwich, Mr oldest daughter scraped the bun off multiple times to remove the mustard and I took 1 bite and spit out my sons fake wings and took 2.5 bites of my terrible giant chicken sandwich. You may wonder why we didn't get anything replaced, well that's the service problem we saw our server to get menus, get drinks then wait 20 minutes to order food then wait 20 minutes to get it food then we didn't see her for 30 minutes and I was finally able to tell her what was wrong. Worst restaurant experience I've ever had. read more

Food sucks. Service sucks, unless you go there during the day and get Laurie. This place has changed so much in the past few years. Serina, the bartender is awesome. So is Danielle. The young girls they have now don't give a sh**. They stand in the corner and text on their phone. Really?! Go somewhere else definitely if you want good service. read more

My experience was okay. First off, I walked into the restaurant expecting a great atmosphere, however I could smell a stench so powerful that I was going to leave. Instead I gave grace only to find out there was a couple of dead bugs on the window stills and flies everywhere. Could see dust in some areas, could use some deep cleaning. The waitress did an amazing job and the food tasted phenomenal. However, my mom ordered a chicken cob salad and it came back with a cob salad. Overall, service could improve better and cleaning is a must. read more

As always, great food and great service. Ask for Hailey for a server, she was amazing. Definitely recommend. read more

We have eaten here numerous times. The place has so much untapped potential. The food is mediocre and the menu never seems to change. I don't have a favorite dish because they are all meh. The only thing I can recommend are the cheese curds. I want to like the local neighborhood bar, but it's just nothing special. read more

sign said seat yourself. we couldnt see any open spots from the entrance and were standing with a baby carrier. asked a lady near the front door for help. she was extremely condescending and said " well.. it's seat yourself..so". incompetence personified. we walked out. I couldn't stomach the idea of giving them my money or trusting them to cook food for me . Will never step foot near this place again. read more

My family and i have been coming here for years. Mainly for the half priced wings on Wednesday's. They have the best, most flavorful, crispy, delectable wings in the area for such a deal! We've tried their salads, fried pickles, burgers and honestly everything is such a great quality. You can serve yourself popcorn that's popped fresh daily while you wait for your food, or we typically just get take away food and bring it home ! They have great daily specials, the are great for large groups, birthday parties, family dinners, date night, or just carry out. They have so much seating, and the staff is always very accommodating. There is plenty of parking behind the restaurant itself. If you haven't been and your in the roscoe area, try them out! read more

I've always liked this bar, but this is the 3rd time I've had food from here though and I think I told the bartender I liked my burger about 29530 times. And I'm not over exaggerating. I had the ultimate Nacho Burger and I think I died and went to heaven. It's sooooooo good. I'll definitely be back for one of these again soon!

We came here for their Friday night fish fry and I am typically not a "Friday night fish fry" kinda gal but their fish fry was deeeeelicous! The best fish fry I've ever had at any restaurant. So they had a couple options for the fish fry: AYCE fried cod OR walleye, baked cod or walleye and then the baked haddock dinner. I got the baked haddock dinner, and it was SO good I want to come back every Friday night just for that. It came with drowned butter, coleslaw, and corn bread. The corn bread that came with the meal was even good, usually whenever I have it at places it is dry, but this one was not dry whatsoever it was very soft and eatable. I like how you have 2 options of what kind of AYCE fish to choose from because it's usually cod and I'm not a big fan on cod, and that had great flavor as well. We also tried the cheese curds as an app and it came in a cute little basket. The service was great as well..I wanted a sangria and the server said they didn't have one but the manager politely came over and told me they could make me one..honestly the sangria wasn't the best but it was the thought that counts and I appreciated the kind gesture! Will definitely be back again for the Friday night fish fry! read more

First time here last night lets say between 6::30-7 on a Friday night. Place is very cozy and has a nice vibe to it. Front and rear entrance with two nice pool tables in the rear. The server promptly came to use once we were in our seats with menus and took our drink orders. My husband has food allergies and she went to the kitchen to ask if any of the allergens are in what he wanted, some servers can be annoyed by having to do this. I order the Roscoe chicken melt which was good but nothing fantastic. As we here leaving we were shortly inconvenienced by a drunk guy at the bar - at 7:30 and I head a woman throwing up in the ladies room while I was in there. Makes me nervous about what this place is like later in the night read more

Stopped by for lunch while in the area and it turned out to be good. Ordered up some wings because other reviews saying they were good and we would agree. Cooked nearly perfectly and had good flavor. For some reason they only give you a tiny amount of dressing, either bleu cheese or ranch, so you have to ask for more. As for the meal, we ordered Italian beef, grilled chicken, and a burger. All were good. The fries were very tasty. As for the service it was okay. We asked, and it turns out, the firehouse was an actual firehouse back in the day. read more

Went here on a Friday night. Service was okay. The place was crowded for around dinner time, which I believe any place would be on a Friday night. I had the chicken Cesar wrap, which could have used more Parmesan cheese. Other than that the service, decor and food wasn't terrible. read more

My husband and I often come to firehouse on a night away from the kids. The food keeps us coming back, but the service has been so bad at times that we have walked out after 10 min or more of not being served. Sit at the bar if you're able, best and fastest service comes from there. Their wings and onion strings are very good and we haven't ordered much that we didn't like. read more

There were 10 of us that went in on a Friday and everything was fantastic! We arrived around 6:15/6:30 and was seat yourself. We were able to find a larger table and grab a couple of extra chairs. Each of the 5 couples was on a separate ticket and most of us did the AYCE fish. Danielle was our waitress and was amazing!!! She was quick to bring refills on drinks and fish. It was one of the best experiences I've had in a long time!! The food was wonderful and the service was top notch! read more

The waitress was terrible. It took 48 minutes to get our food. The waitress didn't apologize or address how long it took. We ordered all you can eat fish and never was asked if we wanted more. We could not get a second cocktail offered. The fish was delicious but chicken sandwich was very tough and dry. Also had to ask for the check to leave. would not recommend unless ordering carry out fish! read more

I have been here several times. Each time I've gone it's always busy, that's a good sign right? I've had the boasted chicken dinner, the chicken sandwich, a chicken ceasar wrap. Wednesday's are wing days, 50% which is so awesome. One of the best I've had. All the food is fresh and cooked to perfection. The fries especially, they must be very healthy, I'm sure. ;) Service has always been friendly and attentive. I love the ice tea here. Free popcorn. What more can I say. It's a must try...check them out!! read more

We stopped here for dinner and waited 45 minutes for our food! People that came after us got their food in 20 minutes. When our food finally did arrive it was lukewarm at best and one of our selections was completely incorrect. Would not recommend this restaurant ever!! read more

I've been to the Firehouse enough times over the years to state their food and service is typically decent, but it's been a year since I've been there up until today's experience. I stopped in with my daughter for lunch and had a shaved prime rib sandwich. About 3 bites in, I noticed there was a big, black hair sticking out of my meal which was disgusting. I shared the information with our waitress, who was apologetic and offered to remove the sandwich from the bill. If this were my business, I would have done a bit more and perhaps comp'd the rest of the ~$20 food bill in hopes of encouraging my customer to return. Confirming suspicions, the cook indeed has black hair and I understand a facial hair net might be helpful to prevent future food contamination. read more

Just off the beaten path....Stopped for lunch on a weekend and found a gem. Good food, good service and some out of the ordinary menu items. A definite must try and even put on your list to visit every so often. I will be back! Thanks for the great food. read more

Great local hangout. Appetizers are good, great wings and a nice beer selection. Sports bar atmosphere with plenty of TV's to check out your favorite game! read more

Firehouse Pub is a great neighborhood sports bar with televisions everywhere, friendly waitstaff and some of the best chicken wings in town! I usually only go on Wednesday's for their Wing special. They have so many flavors, but my favorites are the Garlic Parmesan and the Asian Orange and they are only 50 cents each! I usually order 10, because you have to order in increments of 5. I eat 5 and take 5 home. They have other specials during the week, but Wing Wednesday's at the Firehouse Pub! Yaaaaassssss! read more

$19 for a dozen wings was a pretty outrageous price so passed on those. Purchased a cranberry chicken wrap. It was nothing but too much lettuce, dried out chicken that tasted as if it was rewarmed and sliced up and a glop of yogurt. It was horrible. My friend had a burger and enjoyed it. The service was fast but nothin impressive about the food. One and done. read more

Monday night chicken special was awesome!!!! We have never been disappointed with anything we have ordered. It's always fresh and hot!!

We used to come here at least 3 times a month. Their seating policy is seat youself. Well it has always been fine until last night. We got there, were the only ones in line so we looked around nothing open so went back to stand in line. In comes two groups who walk past us and proceded to stand by tables and wait for the diners to leave. HOW RUDE! We left and will not be returning! read more
