Best bar in Carbon Hill, Illinois (IL) 2024

This place is definitely a hometown favorite. You can tell the majority (if not all) of their business comes from the locals. A group of us were referred to this bar/grill. Bloody Mary's were ok. Salad bar was basic but I love salad so I was satisfied. The Mrs ordered a steak medium rare and it came medium, closer to well done. The steak had flavor. The kid ordered a 5oz steak medium and it came out well done. I ordered a Buffalo grilled chicken salad. I could be wrong but I believe I was served canned chicken. My reasoning is the the chicken came our in shredded chunks and it was refrigerator cold. I suppose it could have been cooked earlier that day and then refrigerated but I highly doubt that's the case based off previous experience. Our server was kind but wasn't very detail oriented. A man with with what I can only describe as a "Mustachio" mustache (more than likely the owner) was super kind and welcoming. I suppose it's what I would expect of a country hometown bar/grill. I had higher hopes since I was referred here. I can say I won't be recommending this place nor will I revisit but I do wish them the best. ~Juan
