I wok in the area and have gone here 2 times for lunch. The first trip the bartender was rude and refused to give me red sauce for my mozzarella sticks stating she did give them to me already. 2nd time same rude bartender and the onion rings were so greasy they were inedible. Refused to refund my money. I just threw them away. NEVER AGAIN WILL I GO THERE. read more

The atmosphere reminds me of "Cheers" . Friendly environment great food good beer selection and great service. Stop in and feel like Norm.

Service was great! Party of 3 and I ordered Philly Chessteak and it was delicious! Added a side of Italian dresimg and a little mayo with extra mushrooms. My son ordered Quesidilla and he loved it! 3rd ordered a butrito - the size was huge but good read more

Visited today for lunch with an old friend. My buddy had the steak hoagie and I had chicken strips. He liked the sandwich and the chicken strips were a healthy portion and very tasty. Good crowd there for a Thursday afternoon! Will be back to try their burgers! read more

The food is surprisingly good at this little bar in Taylor. All the Friday fish fry specials were excellent, especially the cod which had a light tasty batter and was clearly hand dipped in house. For a lighter option try the blackened walleye which was great. Perch and several varieties of shrimp are also available. Each comes with coleslaw, two hush puppies, and choice of fries or baked potato. The hush puppies were tiny and they give a huge amount of tartar sauce which went to waste. The pizza was also great and the cheese bread is the size of a medium pizza. Food took awhile to come out but the bar was totally full on Friday night. Prices were fair. Jukebox playing rock, both classic and Kid. Everyone was satisfied with their mixed drinks and our pop and iced tea were continuously refilled by our extremely friendly server. Give it a try next Friday! read more

JP's just started an open mic night for musicians and singers that is hard to imagine is bringing customers into the place but time will tell. It drove me OUT tonight sooner than normal due to the very high pitch singing by both the women and men that I am certain will draw a crowd of neighborhood dogs. While I give credit to most people brave enough to perform in front of a crowd it was excruciating for me tonight. The chicken strip and potato strips were noticeably smaller than the other times I've been here in recent months. Whether that's a result of a different cook or an alternative to raising prices is no clear. read more

Food, service and waitstaff are great & friendly. Good place to sit back and relax! They offer a great memu and I haven't had anything that was prepared perfectly. read more

Edit: fixed two typos. Have ordered in and carried out from here a few times. Always, hot, fresh and consistent. I get the Buffalo chicken tenders. They're huge and plenty of food for lunch. Comes with three large pieces. read more

The best Shrimp ever Love this place friendly staff excellent food strong drinks love to go here are date night read more

So I have been to this place twice and it is now becoming something of a favorite. It isn't a place I think of as a 'go to' when the weekend hits - not a regular destination spot for me - because it feels like a 'locals place' and I'm not usually in for that. I'm starting to change my tune. We went last Saturday at 5, and as usual the place is busy. We managed to find spots at the bar and the first good sign? My beer was cold. Service was slow but that's as expected these days, the girls behind the bar were busy and not just lolling around. The second good sign? The food. Their French Onion Soup was as good as anyone's, hot, with noticeable breading, onions and melted cheese, wow. My girlfriend had potato skins and they were good, crispy skin and melted cheese. My only complaint is the same as always, they just leave too much potato meat in them these days, I miss when they scooped it out and it was mainly fillings. My corned beef sandwich was great, plenty of corned beef and ,melted swiss. I thought the service was just fine and friendly, just be prepared for a crowd and a little bit of a wait, pretty much anytime of the day. read more

This place is nice and cozy in a great location, away from all the downtown area which is great. We walked in and sat right away the staff is very friendly and very helpful. Their selection of drink is astounding.and of course I had to order a craft beer. I then ordered fried pickles and even though they came as spears they were very delicious, I usually like to get slices but it is hard to find slices. I then ordered the Big Blue cheese burger it was very delicious I ordered it medium rare but there was more bun than burger that was the only issue. Our server Justin is an amazing server and stayed on top of us making sure the food was great, drinks were cold and full and everything was fulfilled. If u get a chance to sit in his section, do it. He will make sure u r taken care of very well. read more

Our favorite bar downriver. It's a mix of dive bar, but with a modern touch. Food and drink are great. Only issue ever is not enough staff on when it's busy. read more

The food here is simply awesome! I've ate here many times and have never had bad food here! Not to mention drinks are always cold and the are served by the most polite staff around! read more

Very disappointed at how my disabled friend was treated here. He was there Oct 17 with a group of friends, he was denied access to the only handicap accessible bathroom because it's located within their banquet area and they had a private party. He asked the private party and they didn't mind, so he used the bathroom and was then berated by staff!! Interesting enough the private party was a homecoming for Carlson students, well he and all his friends are Carlson Alumni!! This is completely unacceptable, according to the ADA they legally MUST provide accessible restrooms to disabled patrons, this man is paralyzed and in a wheelchair... Also, are we allowed to have indoor gatherings now of more than 10? I thought the MDHS had a ban? As someone who's certified to work with fizz led adults and has for over 20 years I will be letting all my clients know where NOT to go!!! read more

Use to be my favorite place to go for fish the last time I ordered it was awful. Under cooked and cold, and had to wait for it so not like it was sitting there to get cold. I did place carry out because of Covid really haven't went out to eat. Figured I would support local businesses. Walked in and no social distancing every bar stool was there as if it was normal business. Needless to say I will never order fish agin. Or go back And I was a regular for awhile read more

1st time going there. Had been excited to try it but got Bad service. Was seated and got drinks and menus but waitress never returned to take our order. Sat there for around 30 minutes and waitress walked by but never acknowledged us or took our order. She waited on the table next to us though. I guess if you're not a regular you have to wait. read more

I've only been in here a couple of times. Service has been good each time, if sometimes a little slow. Lunch prices more than make up for any timing issues though, I can get a meal that fills me up so much I don't need to eat again the rest of the day, complete with a drink for under $7, it's a glorious thing. It's a little dark for a lunch spot, but its tough to change the ambiance for the dinner/late night crowd as well. I get that. I'd come back again and again. read more

JP McGuire's Bar & Grille - Onion rings were to die for. Burger was passable. - Bars Near Me - Taylor, Michigan

Okay the 1st time we went here for lunch (they have $1.00 burgers Tuesday- Thursday) it was understaffed and after an hour we had to take our food to go. The burgers were still really great but fries dont travel well. Decided to give this place a second chance because the burgers were so good and I am so glad we did. I had the Cobb salad that was fresh, delicious and full of chicken, bacon and all the goodies. My co-worker had to pan seared perch and she LOVED it. They are still remodeling the interior but the waitress are great and the food is superb. They got repeat customers for life with us. read more

Apparently the only handicap accessible restroom is located where they throw private parties. So if you're in a wheelchair and need to use the restroom the staff will not permit you while a party is going on. So if you're blessed to have two working legs, I guess you'll be ok read more

Fish was overpriced over cooked and they ran out of hush puppies even with me calling ahead!!! $60 dollars and on top of that we got the " chicken strip dinners" what joke maybe 2 McNuggets together won't eve come back. Right in the trash where it belongs read more

I have been there before and I go there once a month and have enjoyed their burger special that is on the back of the menu for like $1.25. Tried to order and set a bar there were about 15 people in the place. Tried to give the bartender my order and my friends said she was too busy and all she could do right now is get us drinks. Came back about 10 minutes later to take her order, told her I wanted the launch special on the back of the menu medium rare no onions, my friend said he would have the same just he wanted his well done. About 10 minutes later she brought out three sliders for both of us, I explain to her that's not what I ordered these flyers were playing and I wanted the 3rd pound bird that was on the back of the menu that was a special, she got angry said I never said that I said to Special only goes till two and that I shouldn't of ordered it and she could take it away if I didn't like it. She got kind of nasty talked over me said that's not what I ordered through the menu at me told me again she could take it back, I told her I would never come back to that bar again and my friend gave her the burgers to cook because his was rare instead of well. I live local I go in there I don't wanna go back there again that lady took a customer that's been going there for three years and salt him pushed him around and we're just the most rude person I've had ever Great job read more

Bar is run by some of the rudest business people I have ever met. Tried to book their banquet room by calling everyday for a week after being told "we'll hold it for you just call back" only to be ignored daily, then when I finally got ahold of the woman who runs the banquet room 2 days before my event, she decided to verbally berate me and say I didn't make any attempt to book the room and it was reserved by another group. Don't waste your time visiting here. Average food, overpriced drinks, one good waitress read more

Great bar with a wide menu, its elevated bar food made with fresh ingredients. They have great pizza but their best item is only listed on the menu for Mondays, but you can get it anytime, that is their calzone. It is huge with fresh ingredients, real mushrooms, a whole grilled chicken breast, etc. You can get two meals out of it. Decent beer selection, great staff, you can tell that they really enjoy working there. The owner is their regularly and the bar is clean and well maintained. With COVID they are now only doing carry out but it is definitely worth the trip, great food at half the price of the big chains. read more

Great little local bar...came to enjoy a few drinks with old friends and turns out they had a band too! Good prices for drinks to boot.

Best philly chesse steak of my life. Just try it. They have a decent beer list, and friendly service plus keno and touch tunes. Will 110% come back and get this again. My boyfriend said the clam chowder was fantastic. I took a pic of my food but my camera made it look weird. read more

I have ridden by this particular business for quite some time now. On my father's suggestion ( Pete Lepere) and his awesome picture of their onion rings, I decided to take my best friend and meet my father there for lunch. We were greeted very graciously by all of the McGuire employees. Our server was very attentive, and courteous. Overall atmosphere, service and reasonable prices and most of all the food was very good. read more

Noticed all the changes and good renovations since 11 years ago. Probably 1/2 full on a Thursday night. Staff friendly but putting us off on getting drink orders. Did offer sample taste of Stout and cherries to go with Sam Adams Cherry wheat. Problems developed with our order for cheese bread which, after 20 min came out cheese pizza.Waitress noticed right away and returned to kitchen for re-order of cheese bread. Another 20 mins and we had our cheese bread. So 21/2 hrs we've had 2 drinks each and an order of cheese bread!! The upside is our waitress didn't charge us for the cheese bread, the cheese bread with bacon and olives was very good, we are Retired and really had no where else exciting to go. Won't plan to come here if we have a time schedule. read more

The waitress had a mask on, but it was generally pulled down below her mouth......She did not have it on while waiting on tables. Someone in her possession behaving this way if infected could pass the virus to 100's. Once our concern was indicated she begin wearing the mask over her face at our table.......but, too late if she was infected........Nice woman, great food.........NEEDS TO BE MORE TRAINING / AWARENESS read more

Had my Daughter's 21st birthday party in the "banquet room" at JP McGuires. This is a nice, neighborhood place and they treated everyone with style. The food was excellent and the service was above & beyond! The bar itself is very well kept with plenty of TV's, music, & games. Drinks are reasonably priced and there are food specials nightly. This is a must stop on your next night out on the town! read more

The food was great and the service was nice. The burgers and sandwiches come a la carte but when adding a side don't worry they give you plenty. Next time we will order only one side for the two of us. Great little find! read more

Visited for the first time and it was great. We sat at the bar and Justin was great. He was very friendly and took good care of us. Food was excellent. My husband had the cod dinner and I had the JP special chicken bowl (also came with gravy but I'm not a gravy person) which was really good. Good drink specials. Most definitely coming back. read more

Excellent service, amazing beer selection at a good price, and the menu has significantly improved since the new head chef has been there. A must try! People say it's a local bar and I can partially understand, however at the same time I disagree because good service is provided no matter who you are. If you are in the area, swing by and give it a shot! read more

Friendly and fun. Great food and must try the nacho supreme. They always have beer specials too. Alot of screens to watch sports.

Stopped in for a few drinks before heading to a Superbowl party. Glad we had a part already because they were closing from 4:30-5:30 to set up for party. Even though we already had plans we weren't offered to stay for the game. Ordered a vodka\sprite and it came a LARGE glass. Basically a high ball glass the size of a mug. Way to big for a quality drink. Next drink I ordered a short and it came in a tiny juice glass. Really? Just weird! (picture doesn't to it justice). Waitress was really nice and building has been recently remolded very nicely. It's large inside and would be good for groups. We seen some food come out that look really good but we didn't eat. They have an Internet jukebox and someone played Pink Floyd the entire time we were there. Not only Pink Floyd but B-side really weird stuff that was loud and there were families there. I would like to go back and have dinner and give this place a longer look. I think they are kinda stuck between deciding if they want to be more of a bar or more of a restaurant that serves food. Just my opinion! read more

JP McGuire's Bar & Grille - first vodka drink I oredered very very large, second one was a short in a juice glass. Umm.... - Bars Near Me - Taylor, Michigan

Nice remodel However horrible service and basic food. No ambience. The vibe needs to improve or it will end up being a bummer investment for the proprietor. read more

On Friday I stopped by for Cod And fries... When I received the food the my plate seemed to be lacking something??? I cut into the fish and it was all batter with a side of fries... I showed the waitress and she said sorry and walked away??? I was confused... So my wife talked to the bartender/owner and told her of this... Her reaction was did you ask for a new one??? I kinda thought I did??? And the waitress walked away... So me thinking the owner would maybe discount the bill or heaven for bid take the meal off my bill did nothing and gave the check to the waitress and she brought me the change for the bill... I'm sorry but this was my first and last time I go here for food or even drinks because the lack of caring on the waitress and owners part... Thank You... read more

oh goodness, I just don't know about this place. Visited today for lunch, and 2 hours later, my stomach is still angry with me. It's a bar, so you expect the food to be greasy. Well, that's what you'll get, GREASE! Ordered a burger and O'Rings, ate 1/2 the burger and 3 or so rings before my body couldn't handle it anymore. The rings taste like crispy fried batter minus the onion, and the burger grease was dripping down my arm. There were a lot of locals in there, already over-served at 1pm, being loud and cursing (yes, children were present). I think this is a local guy's place as we were the only ones in there the serer didn't know by name. Before we left, a man with birthday gifts came in to secure a table for a group. He asked to sit where they could see the TV to watch the football game, and the server told him no, putting him in the back corner. Mind you, there was plenty of room, only about 5 tables of people in there (the bar rail was full, again all local men known by name). Just got the impression that if you aren't a regular, you don't get very good service. We wont be back. read more

Best buffalo chicken sandwhich, tried it for the first time its pretty big with fries..next time i might order with more sauce
