“ Nice bar atmosphere. Food was good and service was great. Wondered about the family friendliness when we walked in the door, but they took very good care of our family. ”
“ It was a pretty good place to grab some lunch. Unfortunately their cook quit, but the bartender was still able to cook up some tasty cheeseburgers and fries for us. The prices are typical of a bar/restaurant. Very friendly service and we were back to work on time. I'll definitely check it out again in the future. ”
“ Best neighborhood style dive bar/restaurant ever! Excellent burgers and beer, and the staff is the best I have ever been so lucky to encounter. I took a star off for atmosphere, only because it is what it's supposed to be. Super friendly and relaxed. No pretense. No hint of chain restaurant BS. Was just passing through, so it was a lucky find, and will hit it again every time. Ten stars. ”

“ First time there a few weeks ago. The food was delicious and a very friendly person named Richard was so kind, friendly and helpful. We've done a few carry out orders since then and are becoming regular customers. Highly recommend the food. Nice atmosphere too! ”
“ Best Kept Secret in Macedonia! If you’re looking for that perfect little hidden gem, this is it. Family-owned and operated, this local bar has everything you could want—amazing food, ice-cold beer, and some of the friendliest staff you’ll ever meet. The atmosphere hits all the right notes: the bar inside stays nice and dark, giving it that cozy, classic feel, while the patio out back is perfect for hanging out when the weather’s nice. It’s the kind of place where the regulars know each other, but newcomers are treated like old friends. The food is way better than you’d expect from a small bar—every dish is made with care, and you can tell they put heart into it. The service? Always on point. Fast, friendly, and genuine. This place is truly a best kept secret in Macedonia, and once you find it, you’ll wonder how you didn’t know about it sooner. Highly recommend! ”
“ So this bar is kind of my home bar! Safe, run really well strategically, and kind of impossible to mess this up. The family that owns this place are really great people. The crowd is a nice mix economically, of lower to higher middle class generally. Don’t get me wrong, there are some real ballers that show up here and they are even down to earth people as well. For mixed drinks, I prefer the pour of Nikki, Hillary, and Christie! Actually the same 3 customer service wise! Ladies the whole pool table crowd loves the drink quality and pace from you all on a regular. When you are getting kind out beat up with heavy crowds, I would suggest either 1 more bartender or at least a bar back to help. Not that people are waiting unexpectedly too long for drinks, but you should be able to focus more on just the drinks and not bussing tables in these crowds. But you still manage the pace pretty good. As for food, Hector won’t miss! Hector... I don’t know how your do it bro, especially with the crowds you get, but your efficiency, output, flavors, skill in seasoning and textures... Dude you keep a lot of people happy, at the same time. Hope you’re getting paid your worth. Hector I’m still thinking about my chicken quesadilla... bro... it’s insanely good! Only suggestion is to serve jalapenos on the side! This guy Hector came to master at the Blue Willow and he has mastered the entire menu. The everything there is undoubtedly good to OMGeee! The owner is sooooo soooo sooo soo so nice, engaging to the crowd, friendly to everyone, but still manages a no nonsense demeanor. That’s what keeps these doors open. You want a good time with good people in a nice mixed crowd! Come check us out at the Willow! Oh, bring your pool game too, I’ll gladly take your money lol! ”
