Reviews for The Filling Station in Rockford, IL
I've been craving chicken wings and haven't had them in a long time. I ordered the 'hot' wings and some blue cheese dressing.... The wings were VERY large, which I love. However, they were not very crispy and I'd really call them mild, rather than hot. Theylet me order ahead and they timed it perfectly. My food was nice and hot when I arrived. And the service was really great. Nexttime I'll ask for them to make the wings crispy and hotter. All in all, I really enjoyed my visit and will be back, forsure. 11/23/22: Went back with the family for "wings". Their only special on wings is boneless now. It's pretty much whateveryone is doing. The sauces are good and the service is still great. Read more
Hadn't been there in awhile. All good! Clean restaurant / bar atmosphere, great food.
If you're looking for a good quick meal this is a place to go. Servers were all friendly. I went with the patty melt and it did... not disappoint. Read more
Been there 2 times. We sat at the bar for over 5 min both times while the manager was just talking. We left the 2nd time and... went to the sister restaurant CJ's 7 min down the road to Davis Junction. What a huge difference in food, service, atmosphere. Thought we found a new favorite place at The Filling Station, but oh well, CJ's it is. Loved the looks of the bar, food was notdone as requested, perfect at CJ's Read more
My beautiful wife and sista Shelly work there in the kitchen and bust their butts off. Have amazing food, music, and some staff... rock! Read more
The bloody Mary's are so-so, not the best or worst. But managers that fire employees for standing up for themselves are trash.... Employees arent slaves, they arent robots, and deserve understanding and respect. Your businesswouldn't run without employeeskeeping the cogs turning, treat them better and maybe you wont have to rehire every month. Also on the subject of hiring, get abetter manager because Beth is rude and unprofessional and wouldnt even make it at McDonalds with the way she treats herworkers. Not to mention the OSHA, labor, and healthcode violations (such as not allowing breaks, making employees eat whileprepping food in kitchen, not caring about the safety of female night shift employees, to name a few) ???????? 1/5, I'd ratherdrink rockford drainage ditch water than give them my business.

Management is extremely unprofessional, belittles thier employees, high turnover rate, rude, and childish. I feel so bad for... anyone who has to work in this establishment. No one should ever be treated with such disrespectful at thier place ofemployment. Read more
