Grand Saloon
Hmm, grand may be a bit of a stretch, as the only thing truly “grand” about this old-school establishment is, well, um…nothing. Sure, this classic local watering hole has a decent—and cheap!—beer selection (happy hour’s from 3pm-7pm), boasts friendly bartenders, and serves up some respectable pub grub (including Sunday brunch, featuring unlimited champagne) to a mixture of welcoming neighborhood types, most of whom pledge their allegiance to the AARP. But all the “charm” of pressed-tin ceilings and wood paneling in the world fails to mask the 146 years’ worth of dirt and grime coating every surface. But hey, if you don’t skeeve easily, then by all means, have a grand ol’ time.

Bad food, horrible attitude and delivery

I will not recommend the place to anyone. The delivery took an hour to arrive even though we are located 3 blocks away. The delivery guy had to be under influence. The food was cold and disgusting. To top it of the staff person told us, that we could order from some place else if we are not satisffied. What are a way to run a business... If there was a negative 10, I'd give it to this establishment.

This Place IS Grand

I have to disagree with Shecky's review. Grand Saloon is great. It's large, comfortable, reasonable, etc... The food is wonderful (best burgers around). The place is filled with history. The bartenders are friendly, as are the people who seem to frequent the place. It gets a mixed age range which should make everyone feel comfortable. This place might not be the one to spend the whole night, but it's certainly worth a try.
