Reviews for Rookies Sports Bar & Grill (Elgin) in Elgin, IL
Prompt service and good food. The godfather pizza is excellent. Karaoke can get a bit too loud.
Good food and great service! Friend and I came in to watch the Nascar playoffs on sunday and they were happy to put it on a few... of the tv's for us! Some sports bars try to push you out the door as soon as your done eating. Here they are more than willingto let you stay and watch the games if they aren't too busy! Read more
Reuben and Chilli was good. Service was a little slow and Chilli was not hot but still good. Place has a good atmosphere about... it with plenty of sports shows and music. Read more

Rookies door greeter spoke No English. The chicken wings bone in are 6 wing dings. For 11.99. That 2 buck a Ding!!! That damn... ridiculous!!! I ordered hot, it wasn?t even spicy. They were nice and the bartender said she asked that they throw in an extrablue cheese dressing, Even with that I can?t come back. The price too steep, hot is not, and greeter couldn?t help.

We used to love Rookies. We would go all the time. Over the last year or so, just like everywhere, the prices have gone up.... Rookies has raised prices and shrunk serving sizes. Their $1 dogs and burgers are good but if you want tater tots or fries its$6 more! My son ordered boneless wings and they were tiny nuggets with almost no meat.. the teriyaki was slightly better. .. for$12 (6 nuggets). Absolutely ridiculous. This was about $6 worth of food. This was the same price as going to an Italianrestaurant. Probably not going back any time soon. Read more
Bartender was very standoffish. I've been here six times and if you're having a good time in a group that has black people... you're cut off. If you're out with your white friends you can stay until bar close. Last time I was there, we got kicked outbecause "several" customers complained that we were "stumbling around" the bar, but I couldn't identify anyone who complainedabout my group. I talked to a group of white, older people who "go there all the time" who were literally leaning on the bar andyelling to each other across the bar and they've never been asked to leave. I've been here six times, asked to leave when I'mwith people of color every time. If I'm with a couple white friends, we NEVER get talked to. Read more
