John's Restaurant & Tavern

My family and I went here for an early Saturday lunch. The decor isn't anything amazing and  the waitstaff was nice too.

What surprised us was the beer menu. We really dig beer, and liked the option to try different varieties.

The food was okay. I had "John's burger" which was good, but not much to gush over.  All in all, a nice place to go.

John's Tavern is a nice little gem in my hometown of Winfield. We've been there a few times now, and had great overall experience. My most recent visit we brought our newborn daughter, which was fine, because the restaurant section is very family friendly.
Service has always been great. I had the ribs once too, which were pretty good. The beer selection is very diverse also.
Definitely a go-to place for me!

My husband and I definitely dig this place.

Right away, I'm going to tell you that they have a KILLER beer menu for such a small divey place. They get hard to find brews, legitimately. They post their beer menu online and it is updated daily online.

The first time I went there, we wanted to get the latest Goose Island beer but ended up getting a couple bowls of the white chicken chili. YUM they got this recipe right!

We decided to back for food a couple weeks later. The decor isn't much to look at, but it has a good menu with a mix of sandwiches, salads, dinners, soups, etc. I got a burger, my hubs got the meatloaf. The meatloaf was GREAT! The burger was too, very flavorful! And the portions were awesome. Good fries too, nice and crispy and plentiful!

We love to go here on a cold Sunday, order a few craft beers, and eat a hearty meal over the course of 2-3 hours. Very comfy and cozy. The waitstaff are friendly, and the owner will make his rounds and chat with you too!
