Tavern - Winthrop Harbor

Nice foods great sports atmosphere.. pretty well maintained. Tenders were friendly.

??Great place to eat or have a cocktail or shoot darts or play video poker or slots or just shoot the breeze. The eats are good, the atmosphere is old timey, it's been around for a long time. Years ago, this was one of the hubs and Hangouts for the nuclear station that has since been shut down in Zion. it really is a blast from the past and you won't be disappointed in the atmosphere, the pizza or the Friday night fish fry.

We hadn't ordered pizza from the Other Place in a couple years, and decided to try it tonight. It certainly did not impress us. The double decker pizzas, when it was at its original location was the best and was always consistent in quality and flavor.Since moving to Lighthouse, it was hit or miss for taste and quality. That is one of the reasons that after enjoying their pizzas for over 30 years that we quit ordering from there. Our usual place was not taking orders tonight, so we decided to give The Other Place a try. Boy, were we disappointed in the double decker and the thin crust pizzas. The sauce had no flavor, the crust was bland and hardly any toppings were on the pizzas.My daughter, who picked it up, said the place was empty with hardly a car in the parking lot. Very unusual for a Saturday night when it is usually super busy in past years. I wonder if the quality of the food is that bad that it was so dead on a Saturday night. We won't be back. So sad that such an outstanding pizza place has turned to mediocre at best.

It's a 4 of 5 IF you get the right stuff.Good: majority of the menu, Burgers are great, good flavor, pizza is pretty good depending on what you like, most sandwiches, fish. All pretty good.Bad: LOADED NACHOS basically chips, a little bit of nacho cheese, a few tomatoes, and flavorless ground beef. BUFFALO CHICKEN WRAP shredded wet chicken with some sauce mixed in.

Absolutely amazing service. Wish i remember our waitress's name so i can give her credit. Nobody ever had an empty glass. She also stayed longer to serve us. Super nice ill definitely host more events here.
