Mmm, not so good. The food was good enough, but we went because kids eat free on Wednesday, with the one catch that the kids don't eat free. The menu says "Kids eat free!" then "Does not include drink". Ok, no big deal, the kids will just have waters. That'll be $2.29. In other words, you pay $2.29 per child whether you get a drink or not. In other words, "Kid's eat for just $2.29!" This is not stated anywhere on the menu. To the waitress's credit, she did mention it before we ordered, but we were already committed by then. Big time false advertising to get us in the door. Bad PR.
A few other things that sucked:
- They got my beer order wrong (but fixed that).
- The high chair did not buckle. That there is a safety issue.
- We both ordered sandwiches, but only Sarah got a pickle. I want a pickle.
- There was some other stuff that sucked but these were the worst of the offenses.
We've just started experimenting with the whole Kids Eat Free thing and there are lots of other options out there for that. I think we'll move on to one if those and save Grubs for when we just want to watch a game and drink some beers.
Great place, right off Dickson Street, to get a burger and beer. Â Lots of TVs in this place to catch the game too. Â
Overall, great sports bar. Â The burgers are damn good. Â Highly recommend. Â Only warning is watch the crowds. Â You may be waiting a while to get in before and after Hogs games.
This is a great sports bar with a bazillion television screens playing numerous NFL games on a Sunday afternoon. The food is decent too. The barbeque chicken nachos hit the spot! :)
Glancing at other reviews, I can attest that I've also heard this is pretty much a college bar and hangout in the evenings. I'm too old to deal with that scene anymore. However, on my Sunday afternoon visit, I noticed many families dining there and it seemed like a typical restaurant scene.
Just moved to Fayetteville from Oregon for work and Grub's was the first bar I went to. Â Been here twice now and am starting to become a fan.
The food is pretty awesome. Â Had a burger and was introduced to this amazing food called pizza dip! Â My friends also ordered some cheese fries (which comes with a lot more than just cheese).
I like how every night they have drink specials. Â I'm quite the fan of the $1.25 beers until 10 every night! Â Plus having the college crowd around makes for some good scenery.
Drank here 8/5/10
It should be noted here that this is only a review of Grub's as a drinking establishment, my party and i were there well after the close of the kitchen.
Here's the thing... I'm 27. Â I'm well past my days of the fraternity party, or the trip to the college bar packin' em in shoulder to shoulder and slinging cheap longnecks at them. Â when i was 21, i would have LOVED this place. Â Its big, so there are tons of people, a patio for smoking (i smoked the occasional cigarette in my misspent youth), lots of girls in outfits that would not be approved by their local pastor, and most importantly, cheap ass beer served cold. Â In fact, other than the townie karaoke pub i damn near lived in for part of undergrad, Grub's probably would have been my favorite bar as a young undergrad.
But now? Â I'm an old 27. Â The crowds, the rowdy frat guys, the noise, and general chaos just don't appeal to me anymore. Â Its not that I can't party like that anymore, i just don't want to. Â the bartender i ordered my one beer here from was friendly, if over worked, and the Budweiser was both cold and cheap. Â But i like micro-brews. Â I like good conversation in a place where i can hear myself think, let alone someone else speak. Â I like a good waitress and not having to fight my way through a crowd to get to a bar so busy that you feel bad for the bartenders if you order anything but beer. Â I like not feeling like i need to keep my head on a swivel for a guy who's had 3 too many and is looking to start trouble. Â And that place that i like? Â that's not grub's. Â
If you're young and looking for the crazy place to party, by all means, i encourage you to go there. Â The girls were cute and the drink specials were really great. Â If you want something quieter with a strong beer selection, i recommend Sideways.
Now, all that said, i'm told that the food at Grub's is outstanding, so i will be back at some point to review it as a restaurant. Â I hope that experience is a little more to my liking. Â But for now, its 3 stars and a nod to my crazy undergrad days.
I love Grub's. Â The burgers can't be beat, love the fries and fry dip, and the margaritas are pretty darn good too. Â Not sure if they still do it, but beat the clock is fun as well, with well drink specials increasing a dollar every hour. Â
Seriously, if you're craving a great burger, go here.
We visit this establishment frequently. The food is delicious. The beer is cheap, but prepare to receive terrible service of lengedary proportions. If you happen to have a less than satisfactory experience here, feel free to be critical with your tipping. Neglecting waitresses are common. Over the past years, this place has shown aspirations of being a B-rate Hooters.
Review Source:Grubs has a great happy hour and a pleasant, spacious patio. Â I've spent many evenings here, hanging out with a group of friends. Â The food is not always great, but it's also never been bad. Â The burgers are usually really tasty and are definitely of the huge and greasy variety (in a good way - sometimes you just need a big, unhealthy burger), with a lot of different options for toppings. Â
The waitstaff are usually pretty attentive, but expect slower service on weekends when it's busy. Â All in all, reasonable prices for decent food and nice place to hang out.
