We visited Squire on the Square and ordered the giant pretzels, schnitzel, and the Parmesan-crusted cod. The pretzels and schnitzel were great, but the fish came out undercooked. The staff handled it very well—they were quick to make it right, and I decided to switch to the pot roast instead. I’m so glad I did! Their pot roast is absolutely amazing, tender, and full of flavor. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Woodstock, IL. The great service and delicious food definitely made our visit worthwhile.

If you’re a Groundhog Day fan, Squire on the Square is an absolute must. A portion of the movie was actually filmed in this establishment, and getting to eat and drink in the very place where that “Drink to World Peace” moment happened was such a surreal, nostalgic highlight of our trip. It honestly felt like stepping right into the movie.
The food was really good, and the specialty drinks were excellent, creative, delicious, and totally worth ordering (especially if you’re making a whole Groundhog Day weekend out of it). The atmosphere was upbeat and fun, and it’s beautiful inside , warm, cozy, and full of character.
Even without the movie connection, I’d recommend it for a meal or cocktails. But with the Groundhog Day history? It makes it that much more special.

Unique atmosphere. Creative holiday decorations. Staff very friendly and you get a bowl of popcorn while pondering your order. Brisket sandwich a bit too chewy but sauce fine. Rueben had right amount of sauerkraut and dressing came on marbled rye. Generous amount of fries which were a bit soggy and lukewarm. Great scenic location right of historic square.

Great food and outstanding service whenever we visit the Squire.
Tonight was Halloween and it was a fun night with The staff dressed in costume along with many of the customers.
Paul the Bartender and William the Manager are exceptional.
We look forward to our next visit.

This was fantastic, we just happened to see it open after checking out the decorations in the square. It was honestly stupidly good. The brisket mac b cheese was amazing, the ahai apps were really good,….Well everything we had was good. The inside decorations also just hit the spot. Would 100 percent recomend, and if i was even remotly local i would go here a lot. And dprobably be 500ibs.

I had the best grilled cheese sandwich there I’ve had in a loong time and I loved how the drinks were served in mason jars. It was very charming atmosphere and the staff were so hospitable as a traveling tourist ❤️

Absolutely love Squire, and having this addition to Woodstock is a great compliment to this town. The food is always amazing, and the service was stellar. Our waitress was so fun and kept us laughing through each interaction. We loved her. Rum Barrels are my favorite. We really enjoyed everything about our visit. I wish them great success at this location. I intend to visit again soon!!

Went for dinner Friday night they were busy but got us in right away. We order a Mai Tai and bang bang shrimp to start. The drinks were good. The shrimp was okay not my favorite it was breaded shrimp in bang bang sauce and they were a little soggy. I’ll definitely try something different next time. For our main meal I had to do the prime rib and the husband went with fish a chips. My prime rib was delicious. I opted for the 11 oz which was plenty for me it was tender and melted in my mouth. My husband wished he got one instead of his meal he thought his was just okay. He said the breading on his fish was to salty for his liking. I enjoyed his meal the next day and thought the fish and potato was good. We decided to get dessert I got the carrot cake and he did the cookie skillet. I also had a espresso martini for dessert. All 3 items were wonderful the cake was moist and flavorful. The cookie was so good with ice cream. And the martini was the perfect way to end the dinner. The service was great and attentive but not over the top.
