One of favorite places to visit. The wings are great & the Spicy Yardbird is my favorite chicken sandwich in the area. Service is always friendly & the atmosphere is also pleasant.Parking: Parking in rear of building
Local favorite! Burgers are good and the beer is always cold! Stop in and try it, locals know how good it is!

Rowdy's is Yorkville's local dive in the best way. This is the place to go for inexpensive, dependable drinks and conversation. They've got gambling, darts, music... all the standards for bar entertainment plus theme nights like adult bingo. Now, the food. For a bar, the food is very good. If you're looking for a 'dining experience,' adjust your expectations or go elsewhere. The food is pretty much all fried and served in baskets or trays lined with paper. It's a great place for a hangover-busting burger or hot, salty fries and the prices are sensible. It's decent for kids earlier in the day but obviously it's not family-friendly as the night wears on. Late nights and weekends, this place earns its name. Overall, Rowdy's is dependable and tidy. The staff are pleasant and attentive without being overbearing. They don't make new folks feel alienated. Oh, and they have nifty fish tanks. I like the big plescostomus best.

Went for adult bingo and had a blast. They were understaffed but the servers did their best to keep up. Easy to be patient when you're laughing so hard. We will be back.

They don't reveal drink prices until you get your bill. And it depends on what bartender you get on how you will be charged It's a dive bar with so so food not a 5 star dining experience be clear on your pricing up front I think they are trying to keep up with all the improvements in downtown with the people who know how to run a bar/restaurant

The food was delicious I ordered a cheeseburger and fries. My appetizer was pickle fries and it was crispy and salty and just so perfect. My food came out not even 10 minutes after I ordered it even with many people there. My chefs name was Roary (the food was so good I had to ask).
The food is great, Ethan is the best, and we love Trivia Tuesdays with Ronnie.

It's my favorite bar in the area with corner bar atmosphere. The chef Julio is a wizard on the grill. Any of the burgers are a good bet, but the tenderloin is my go to.

Burgers are nothing short of amazing. First time I was here I had the Bridge Street burger and it was so tasty. Today I had the garlic parmesan burger. OMG it was amazing also. The fries are made fresh and cooked to perfection....crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I highly encourage everyone to try Rowdy's. ?????

Excellent service and great food! Definitely would recommend. They have games and a few for kids as well. The fish tanks are really cool and add to the fabulous old school atmosphere.
