Reviews for The Spot Tavern of Marengo in Marengo, IL
Yum. Fish fry. Fresh flaky fish with light breading. Not greasy at all. The slaw, not sure if they make it in house but it has... pieces of apples. So good and crisp. The potato pancakes were delicious, again not greasy. The owner actually sat and chattedwith us. Friendly place. Read more
Great place for a drink or some food. Service is friendly and the prices are very affordable. Small room so conversations can... carry and music can be loud but feels like a place that has something for everyone. Read more
We go for the 50 cent barbecue on Thursday but they have a full menu too. Good food, good service, nothing fancy. The Spot is... your typical bar with a long bar and a few tables. We will be returning. Read more
Probably the best burgers in town! Can't beat the Jalapeño Hot Spot.
Nice hometown type establishment with food and drinks. Have about 4 gambling machines that I'm not familiar with due to Illinois... laws. Haven't lived in IL since early 80's. MN has pull tabs in the bars and you have to go to reservation casinos otherwise forgambling. Friendly local people. Moved back 3 wks ago and was my 1st night out with a sister n her friends. Good time withkaraoke. I have never seen so many talented people who could sing! in one place! It was great. Until some fool turned my name infor a song I couldn't sing... I'm not good at it...lol but did it anyway for fun n asked folks to help me, please! ???????????? Read more
Staff was not unfriendly, but definitely did not go out of their way to take care of us. Fries were good, portions were nice,... but the burgers were so greasy my husband and I had upset stomachs after. Read more
Stopped after reading reviews driving past the area and the reviews were dead on right this time. Great stop for a massive... 3/4lb very well cooked burger, cold beers and super friendly bartender (Kelly) and a super friendly couple who own the place,friendly people at the bar..real nice place to go. Worth the stop for sure. Read more
