Checked out this average looking bar in Channahon. It has a pretty nice location alongside the Des…read morePlaines River. Big Basin is a pretty boring place most times as it often seems to be empty. Gets better when it brings in the regulars who hang around here. The crazy drunk boaters help to liven it up when it gets later. After walking around Channahon State Park, we were tired and came here. It's located close to the park. This is also located along the frontage road next to Interstate 55, so you hear the noise of all the traffic. It basically has just things to drink. Sometimes they have basic bar food like chips and wings. It's about $5 for the cheapest cocktail. The food menu pretty much sucks. It's really not much other than greasy chips. Try some in the bag because these are better to be honest. Gets lots of crazy ass boaters. It's conveniently located next to the marina. The bar also has a few slots.

Really clean bar and I just love it's southern feel that really makes you think if you are in Channahon. Plenty of parking too and even a competing bar next door. The food here is outstanding, their whisky BBQ sandwich exceeded my expectations. Great fries and presentation. I will say the food is a bit pricey none the less but the beer is well priced. Plenty of TVs to watch your favorite sports etc service was great and receptive. Definitely worth checking out.

While we were ready to order food the bartender took forever. Two other couple's came in within a 30 minute window, the bartender took their food order before us.

Hot and fresh. Only problem is that the cheese sauce has a film and was like water. It was scorching hot though. The burger was good sized, hot, and juicy. I wish that they offered to cook it to a temp other than mid-well. Over all, this place is fine. Nothing fancy, you get what you pay for. If I were in town again, I'd stop in again. Just a note. They charge a 3% surcharge if you pay by credit card. It's not noted anywhere with signage. It's not on the menu in fine print. It shows up on your bill. I've heard people say that "if you can't afford to tip, don't eat out. Well if you have to charge people a surcharge to pay by credit card, then don't open a restaurant. If you are going to do that, then post it on the menu and at the front counter so people know.

Bathrooms were clean as well as the whole restaurant. I even noticed out waitress rolled her eyes when walking away. But like I said it's a very nice place. I'd give it a 2/10. Very pricey

We just had a small snack their soup was delicious it was chicken and wild rice that day and it was definitely home made. The bartender was great about telling us about their beef rolls.

She also recommended a bucket of beer that was cheaper than single bottles. How nice was that ??

Inside this location resembles an industrial sports bar with concrete floors and iron accompaniments throughout the establishment. Service was good, the waitress was really friendly, kind, and accommodating. The ticket times were fine, not super get out of here fast, but also not you're stuck in the booth slow. Coworker ordered a patty melt and waffle fries with Italian spring rolls. I ordered basically a custom blackened salmon sandwich with only avocado on it and a side of waffle fries. I had a pretzel too. The pretzel was a bit weird for me; felt and tasted like a brioche bun which overall the idea seems amazing, but I want my pretzels exceptionally salty. The salmon was acceptable but realistically overcooked. The fries were amazing, quite possibly the best version of waffle fries I've ever had. Think of Arby's seasoned curly fries but in a waffle shape. Overall not a bad meal but not an exceptional one. I'd return if I had to revisit this area for work again.
