Finally found the perfect neighborhood pub not too far from us in Rockford. We came here for a…read morelions game planning to stay for half and ended up staying for the whole game. Staff was nice and prompt and the menu was great. We really liked the spicy chicken sandwich. Drinks were well priced and their weekly food and drink specials were amazing. We'll be back very soon for the laid back vibes, cheap drinks and good food.

Butcher's Union will always be one of my favorite go-to's. They consistently have amazing food and…read moregreat service. Now that they take reservations online and not just in person, it's so much easier to get a seat! Every time family or friends visit in town this is our first stop. The decor and ambiance is top tier and I wish there were more like it in GR! I highly recommend for a date night or nicer dinner out since it is a nicer place and the prices reflect that somewhat. My favorites are the whipped feta, wagyu sirloin, and the Daisy Du cocktail. For dessert, the bourbon apple crisp and chocolate mouse cake are incredible. But you truly can't go wrong with anything on the menu!

Been here on more than one occasion when visiting friends in Rockford. Food was absolutely…read moredelicious. First time I had a dish called The Cook's Breakfast which was biscuits and gravy topped with corned beef hash , cheese and two eggs. Came back two days later with our friends and got the lemon blueberry French toast and some eggs with a side of bacon. Everything was perfectly cooked both times. The server was absolutely amazing as well!! Will definitely come here every time I'm in Rockford.

Breakfast at Evergreen Inn…read more This morning, in the spirit of liberty and breakfast carbs, I ventured out to the Evergreen Inn to celebrate the Fourth with a fork. Their specials board boasted a short stack paired with a choice of meat--how could I resist? I threw in a couple of scrambled eggs to round things out and waited for the fireworks (on my plate, that is). The pancakes arrived looking like golden perfection--fluffy, inviting, ready to be drenched. Unfortunately, the syrup rations were a bit...conservative. I wouldn't say stingy, but let's just say I had to request two more cups to give those cakes the celebration they deserved. The eggs? Fine. Serviceable. I suspect they started life in a carton, already liquefied and waiting for their destiny. The sausages were decent, the chocolate milk was nostalgic in all the right ways, and the cutlery had clearly survived a few wars of its own. And the ketchup--oh, the ketchup. A bottle proudly labeled "Fancy" does not make it so. If someone brought that stuff to a backyard BBQ, I'd stage a condiment coup and return with a bottle of Heinz. Now, let's talk ambiance. The place is *kind of* clean--clean-adjacent, clean-curious, but not quite committed to the title. Still, nothing alarming, just...comfortably lived-in. What it lacked in polish, the staff made up for in personality. The lone waitress holding down the fort was kind, attentive, and clearly doing the job of three people. Any service slip-ups? Forgiven on the spot. The bill came in a little higher than anticipated, especially for a daily special. But with few breakfast contenders in the area, Evergreen Inn knows it has the home-field advantage--and it's charging rent. Still, the pancakes alone were worth the visit. Just bring your own syrup--and maybe your own ketchup, too.

Stopped here for dinner on my way back from fishing the Pere Marquette. Ordered an "Original…read moreWeißbier," and liked it very much--nice body with just the right level of fruitiness. Got the Pub Pulled Pork sandwich with it, and this also was a winner. Nicely smoked piggy with a creamy sauce, enough to be satisfying but not too big to eat with your hands, as I've run into a some BBQ outfits. That's actually not doing the customer a favor! I appreciated having some non-stachy side options and chose the red cabbage for mine. It was warm, tender-crisp with just a slight lemony tang. Seating is mostly picnic table style--you may well share yours with another party, but not to worry. This is a place likely to dispel any bad mood someone might have walked in with.

Got industrial with cement floors , tables made from old doors . Nice touch , it's a little cold and tinny inside , they need to get sound proofing right . Menu is limited as they get started , my kids loved the Brussel sprouts , and we tried both the tomato basil soup and venison chili . The chili was underwhelming as chili should be thick and meaty and this was thin and watery , more of a soup not a chili . Cocktail menu is nice though the paper plane which I ordered had way too much lemon , a good paperplane is equal parts of all ingredients . It looked like they might be trying to be something they aren't with some of the choices , too many ingredients trying to make a craft cocktail , sometimes simple is better and learn to master the classics first . Cocktail prices were high for the area as well The nachos were tasty but need more heat , an option for more pico and maybe some jalapeño , even the candied ones mentioned in another app. Sandwiches looked good but they need an option other than fries , not everyone likes fries with a sandwich . Too many other places within a reasonable drive that are so much better in atmosphere and price for the same quality .

Service was top notch from start to finish. Plates were cleared between each course, we were checked on often but not too much and felt super taken care of. The tart strawberry mocktail was one of the best I've ever had, refreshing and perfectly balanced. We started with the truffle arancini- it sits on top of a bed of black pepper aioli which was to die for. The gem salad was fresh- loved the addition of crispy prosciutto&mandarins. I had the double waygu burger with fries(highly recommend asking for a side of the black pepper aioli for your fries!!) while my husband had the hanger steak frites. Both were cooked perfectly and SO flavorful. We were stuffed, but had to finish with the tiramisu. It came in a chilled glass- so appreciate the attention to detail. I'll be thinking about this meal until I can come back for more!
