Local bar with a pool table and video games. Lots of TV’s and a friendly staff. A mostly younger crowd in the 20’s and 30’s. Reasonably priced with good staff.

– ZERO STARS –
We went there for the third time this evening (Sunday, 11/2) after shooting at D5. The same bartender was on shift today as the prior days … dark hair just past her shoulders, heavy set girl, very lazy. Not one time has she EVER ventured out from behind the bar to take our orders in spite of us making constant eye contact with her. One time we just ordered food from the adjacent restaurant and no drinks, another time we approached the bar standing behind customers seated at the bar (uncomfortable) to get this bartender’s attention to place an order; but tonight … we just walked out. Not only is this bartender extremely LAZY, but after she ate a donut we witnessed her stick her entire thumb inside her mouth and suck it as she twisted it around to ensure she got every last bit of sugar. She probably licked her other fingers, as well, but I had to turn my head NASTY!! She then proceeded to grab a can, open it and prepare a drink for a man without washing her hands. We decided to leave and WE WON’T BE BACK. This girl needs additional training or to be fired. The service here sucks and from what I can remember from last time, the drinks weren’t worth the hassle. See Connie next door, though, for great pizza and much better service.

First went there in 76. Still has that corner bar feel.update we had breakfast today great see pic. Sunday 29. A gyros and western omelet. If you take new 23 exit from toll worth a stop for breakfast on way to Wisconsin. Has family-friendly area not in bar.

This place really looks awesome with the reclaimed brick from the old clocktower in Rockford! Great job – looks wonderful. We had an enjoyable time here with great service from our favorite bar keep – Jimmy. Thank you, ❤️ Merry Christmas! ☃️

Nice atmosphere, eclectic old school building. The free billiards was fun. However that’s about the end of the positives. As for negatives, the staff was uninspired to say the least. Between half mixed cocktails that were a miss, to a staff that didn’t care to fill our drinks when we went dry over having a conversation with their friends, and asking for music to be turned up 3 times only to be yelled at when doing so of our own volition. Not to mention a rather disturbing older man who seemed unable to keep his eyes to himself nor act appropriate which made a female friend of mine extremely uncomfortable which caused us to have a brief exit. Overall 2/10, wouldn’t recommend

Nice little town bar located in downtown Marengo Illinois, very small but definitely friendly staff. This particular place has been handed down to the family for quite some time. Very clean and organized place very historic as well

Stopped in for a beverage, thought I saw a ghostly apparition looking at me from an odd angle. Bartender told me it was the Ghost horse that frequents the establishment. Turns out Sam’s is named after a horse that came the bar almost every day from 1906- till his death in 1914.
Pros: Sweet ghost horse!
Cons: Some might be scared of the ghost horse.
