A friendly smoker bar with low drink prices. Oh yeah, they have a separate dining area without smoking and kids=OK. All day Friday is fish. Every offering is great. Get here at night before 8 for the walleye or perch. Biker, veteran and non-veterans, and just plain folks welcomed here.
7. Whistle Stop Bar and Grill
Reviewed By BaldEagleMenace
If you are a train buff, this is a hot spot as three lines cross in front of the Village Tavern and its neighbor the Whistle Stop. When the weather is nice you can sit outside to see, hear and feel the trains roll by.

This place used to be more of a biker bar. Several years ago they expanded their eating area and feature good Mexican food. The Tuesday night we were there they featured tacos , three for five dollars. They featured three different fillings with the waitress recommending the pork tacos. They did not disappoint and were filled with large succulent pieces of pork. They also had the usual tostados with sauce at the table. Our waitress wasw very attentive along with a great sense of humor.

Friday fish fry here is excellent. Daily special rotates through good stuff, especially the tacos. The restaurant is in a smoking bar that is very loud (doesn't bother me but it is what it is!). Ideal when the Indiana weather cooperates and you can have your fish fry outside.

This was our first time visiting this place. It was great. We came in for lunch. It was a weekday and not very crowded. The service was top notch. They have a great beer selection as well. We got the doughboys appetizer and they were super good. I had the roast beef grinder. It was by far the best beef sandwich I have had in years. The meat was spiced and cooked perfect. There was zero fat on it! The bread was awesome and the cheese was melted and the whole thing was perfectly toasted. My husband had the French bread pizza. It was delish. It was on great bread, fresh sauce and cooked perfect. We will be adding this place to our dining our rotation for sure. Don't know why we waited so long to go here.

Stopped on our way from Chicago to Ohio. Menu options were amazing. Everything was absolutely delicious! Prime rib, chicken Boursin, the salads, the crab soup, the Brussel sprout chips!!! Sooo good! Server had a bland (at best) demeanor. But the food and drink made up for it. Blackberry mule was delish, too!!!

We saw this restaurant close by our campsite at the Dunes State Park. The road directly there was closed for bridge maintenance. We were able to find an easy detour. The service was excellent especially after the poor service at the NewHampshire businesses. The ribs were delicious, in fact, some of the best Iâve had. We rate Ribs at a variety of festivals. The price was very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. Decor is bar and grill old town which gives character. I would recommend this to everyone.

We were scrambling for a place to eat at night-found this little gem right in the middle of town. Nice beer selection, all three dinners were good and loved the frozen key lime pie for dessert. It must have been pretty close to the train tracks as a train came through and shook the building to its very foundation! Great place
