Got some lunch at this place in Sycamore downtown. It actually is located in the historic…read morecourthouse so it's a good place to go after getting released or after seeing a judge. PJ's has a lot of typical tavern fare including booze and fried stuff. Also some things are healthier. The prices aren't that bad especially with the specials they often have so ask about these. Came at lunch and we got seats at the bar. It's got enough room that you could bring a group. There's also more dining on another side so plenty of tables. Has pretty much what's expected at a tavern as far as drinks and food. It's about $5 for the cheapest cocktails, so okay prices. The best one of these we had was the Wheatley Vodka Club, which is ironically pretty simple. It's $11 for the Beyond Burger. This comes with lettuce, onions, and tomatoes. Fries are on the side or you can get something else. The rest of the menu is pretty meaty with things like burgers, hot dogs, and the Italian beef sandwiches. Has a lot of things to like here. It's located in a historic building and is one of the more happening places in town. There's even a few things for vegans and vegetarians.

It is a big place. They make their own Bloody Mary mix and it is yummy! Solid bar food. We had pretzel nuggets with mustard and an amazing garlic parmesan dipping sauce. I like that the pretzel is broken up into pieces. The southwest egg rolls were good with a dipping sauce. The breaded pork tenderloin is huge! It comes with plenty of iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, onions and a tasty honey mustard sauce. The fries are addictively good. They have seasonal drink and food specials. I think the prices are reasonable. If I am in the area, I will go here again.

Heard that before, Rob. McNally's is cute and all but nothing like the greats. It has a comfy cozy atmosphere that, initially, I found relaxing. Then the server showed-up with a nasty disposition and the patience of a child. After waiting entirely too long for a check-up, I ended up asking the bartender for a refill. How hard is it to just grab the server and tell her to add a drink to our tab? No can do. I was dismissed, very short and coarsely, and told to order it through my waitress. The saving grace was their menu and quality of food. The scotch egg, shepherd's pie boxty and the Guinness chocolate mousse were spot on. I had a bite of their bangers and mash and easily could order that, too. I didn't handle the bill but I can tell you the place is pricey and there's not enough here to justify it. Obviously, we didn't say a thing to the good doctor but this place is mediocre at best. 02/26

Although the fish fry was not worth the money, $19 for fish and shrimp it did taste good however. When it comes to fish fry, I think I will stay with the town tap down the street, which by the way they serve every Friday starting at lunchtime. The VFW in the bar area is very loud and crowded.

When I was leaving I stopped and spoke with the owner to suggest they have the signage out and visible for the customers to see not refunds or exchanges if not satisfied , he was very rude not apologizing he stated What should I do just takes loss because you didn't like your order and I stated all other regular restaurants do he stated this is a regular restaurant and besides it's the law and I know because I'm a lawyer and should know and we have the best Shrimp in Chicago but my complaint wasn't regarding the Shrimp it was the Lobster Roll the Customer Service from the Owner and his rudeness is why I will never go there again even if you have good food doesn't give you the right to treat frequent customers in such a way I will not be returning and I will let all my family as Well as my Church family not to come back as I'm African American and he seems to have an issue with treating us with respect as I have saw other reviews by other African American's stating the same.

I joined my husband's family in celebration of his birthday. We had a late lunch at a local…read morerestaurant and convened here to continue the celebration. I have never been to a VFW, but found this location to be a fun and relaxing venue. I met a few veterans and their families who brought food for all to enjoy. Libations were offered at the bar at a reasonable cost. A band was scheduled to play at 7 pm, but I had to leave and didn't get to hear them. I'm sure they did a good job. Out of curiosity, I did a little research about this particular post and its namesake. I learned that the Harry E. Anderson Post 9545 Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States was established on July 19, 1947. Corporal Anderson was the first soldier in Will County Illinois to die during World War II. He was killed in Guam on December 7, 1941. On September 12, 1995, the post was completely destroyed by fire. However, plans to rebuild the it began almost immediately while trailers served as the temporary post. On November 19, 1996, the new building was completed and formally dedicated on January 11, 1997. VFW Post 9545 is one amongst approximately 9,000 posts worldwide. Its mission is to "honor the dead by helping the living" through veterans' services, community services, national security, and a strong national defense. Frankly, I'm impressed with the organization and its structure; specifically, VFW Post 9545. I took a photo of its organization chart. I'm an American who actually likes being an American. Yes, the country has its issues just like all countries. But the USA is my home
