Lil Bo Bar and Restaurant

Great bar and pub!

Atmospheres and esthetic are cozy and welcoming. Definitely got that Cheers vibe. Lots of locals who come regularly and are known by staff and others.

Food is incredible. I enjoyed the southwest salad with chicken and there is a lot of it. Husband was impressed by the chicken tenders and said they are probably the best he’s ever had.

Great stop!

This establishment has been around for many years, a local go to! New owners in the last 2 years who have brought back a welcoming atmosphere for locals and tourist with outstanding bar food! They offer great soups, burgers with a flare. They have a featured deviled egg daily along with fried green tomatoes and other great but not typical appetizers. The bar interior has not been changed much over the years which I love. It has some vintage charm. Comfortable booths. I would have given the atmosphere 5 stars but when it is at peak busy time it is very noisy and it is hard to have conversations with your friends, but to be expected. During warm season you can sit outside which is nice. Service is good! Highly recommend for some real local flavor! Cocktails are good!

We were not impressed by bland food this time. We have enjoyed the olive burgers and other things in the past. The Buffalo chicken tender wrap had no sauce at all, and Ruffles or other foodservice chips, not homemade. The southwest salad had avocado spread from Sysco or Gordon Foods with zero flavor, and very little corn or black beans.

Lil Bo's had an authentic "up north" or "northwoods" vibe. It was busy, but the bartenders and kitchen staff were hustling as well as friendly. The beer was cold and the food was great. I recommend the fried greed tomatoes. The chicken strips were great too.

I am so glad we found this gem!
Every single item we ordered blew us away! The Buffalo Chicken was the best my husband has ever had. The Wedge Salad was the best I've ever had and this is an item I order frequently. The pickle appetizer pictured was unique and delicious! The specialty Mule was refreshing and perfectly balanced. Not pictured was the kids chicken fingers and soup which were both a big hit with us and the kiddos! Overall we loved everything.

Our server, Jill, was so lovely. She went above and beyond, was attentive, friendly and her recommendations were on point. Flawless service and we felt right at home.

Very family friendly. Our kids had a great time playing pool, Pac Mac, dancing to the live music and coloring.

We happened to be there on a Thursday night and the musician, Lars, was great! His music and personality were really enjoyable.

I would recommend this spot to anyone and everyone. Can't wait to go back next time we are in town!

Thanks Lil Bo!
