Reviews of Williamston Pub & Grill (Restaurant)

Kristen Kramer

Great good. Fun and lively atmosphere. Seemed like a local hotspot. I was traveling from out of town. My only note was that the booth cushions were torn and taped. Not ideal considering I'm a booth lover. Great service.

Adam Plotnick

The girls that Bartend and Serve the tables couldn't be any nicer and knowledgeable of their menu and beers on tap.

Tracilynn Bowerman

I usually dont have anything bad to say about this place... but when myself and my boyfriend. Both very loyal customers get turned away at 12:02 on a Saturday night when open till 2am. It's very very upsetting. I think well take out loyal business elsewhere.

Brent Brown

Great hole in the wall. Clean, good drinks, and friendly service. Stop in to see the unique bar that has been built out of trees that are super unique

Julie Hug

Have a better Chardonnay would net this a five. Their balsamic dressing is super tasty. Their salads are great. Their burgers are good. Great value for the price

Daniel Sayre

I loved the western burger. I went on a busy Friday night, the waitress I had was the best waitress I've ever seen, one of their older waitresses. Every move the staff made seemed calculated, as every table was full and there seemed to be no time to just sit around or mess up. I really loved this place, I hope to see it be as consistent and pull through even on those busy nights when everyone decides to go out at the same time haha!

JOHN EMMER

The positive first.. My steak sandwich was excellent.. Great steak, lots of onions, nice solid sandwich. The Bad... My wife ordered a Chicago Dog, saw picture she loves them. Out comes a horribly stale bun, no poppy seed bun either. It was a hot dog with pickle and relish that was it. And she ordered onion rings to go with (up charge, which would be fine) She got 4 onion rings!!!! Was our first time there in years, not sure if my wife will go back...:(

Steve Spalding

We had a great meal! The meatloaf was delicious (and huge) and the nachos were fantastic. My wife is pretty picky about nachos and said these were the best she's ever had! It was fairly busy (Trivia Night) and our waitress was as prompt as possible. She kept a smile on her face in spite of being pretty swamped. We'll definitely be back!!

LeeAnn Rice

My FAV place since 1974 because of olive burgers!!!

Patrick Bowyer

Nice place with good food. A little small.

Jennifer heintz

Ok place to be!

Jamie VanAntwerp

Awesome food

Amanda Smith

Hands down best burgers. My husband had me try his mushroom swiss, my eyes rolled in the back of my head. So juicy, full of toppings, and the food coming out of the kitchen for other tables looked amazing. Nachos are huge and loaded. Service was amazing & very attentive. Family friendly. We live 67 miles away but we might have to pack our bags and make a trip. We each had a brew as well. Nice portions

Kelli Roberts

Was there today cool place met up with family

Shawna Captain

In the past month, I stopped by 3 times to get a bite to eat at the bar. The service was not rude, but on one occasion, it was not helpful at all (I asked about the wine selections and the bartender told me she wasn’t sure if the answer because she “doesn’t drink wine”). The other two times the service was lackluster at best, apathetic at worst. As for the food, when the menu pictures the Chicago Dog with the signature poppy seed bun, that’s what I expected; instead it seemed like a regular Meijer brand bun. All three visits had me regretting my decision to stop here, I won’t be back for a forth.

Jean Harris

Just had the best steak ever!! Better than the steak a month ago at Capital Prime.

Allison Smith

We just moved to the area and this has become one of our favorite spots. The atmosphere is very laid back, the food has always been great with a wide variety and the staff has always been fantastic. Very friendly and attentive. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys pub food and atmosphere.

Maurita Bartnikowski

Found this small town pub searching Google maps on a trip to Michigan. We ordered the fish and chips, which were very tasty. They also have burgers, sandwiches, pizza and a few entrees. Service was excellent. Our food came in no time at all. You know a place is good when it fills up shortly after you arrive.

Katherine Broyles

Excellent food, good atmosphere!

Justin crawford

Very good burgers.

Sember

The staff was great, food came out quickly and tasted great! The menu was clear and had many options, and the portions were spot on for a sit down meal. The environment was so lively and cozy it really made for a really good time. Would recommend for family dinners or a nice date :)

Dan Vander Velde

Friday all-you-can-eat fish excellent! Talked with the owner and they have nightly specials on food almost every night. have not tried it but Tuesday is taco night Wednesday is hamburger night planning on going!

Williamston Pub & Grill has transformed and overcame every obstacle imaginable in the past few years. A short decade or so ago, this bar formerly known as "the bucket" was your typical small town, hole in the wall, consisting of fried foods and cheap domestic beer. In 2006 the Bucket succumbed to a devastating fire which started in the grease coated kitchen and escalated quickly. The resulting damage was insurmountable and the bucket closed for about a year as it was entirely renovated and remodeled. The citizens of Williamston anxiously awaited the grand reopening, as at the time there was not another bar in the city (other than family friendly resteraunts). When the Bucket reopened it debuted under a new name "CB's Bucket bar & Grill". The new bucket was an utter disappointment to most, as they attempted to transform themselves into a fancy five star dining experience. They had a few of the major components in place. The inside of the resteraunt had been updated and modernized. The menu had been completely replaced. The burgers and fries of yesterday were replaced with high end steaks and seafood. The only problem was that, although the place had the impression of fine upscale dining, the food did not live up to hype. If I'm going to spend $25 on a steak, it better be outstanding. I can get a cheap chunk of meat at Applebee's for far less. The bucket bar and grill plugged away for a couple years until a winter night in 2008 when the resteraunt caught fire and burned again. This time around, the fire was determined to be the result of Arson! After a while of staying closed, and the rumors that the building (and liquor license) had switched hands a few times due to some legal liabilities, the bar eventually reopened. This time around, under new owners and management, the now titled, "Williamston Pub & Grill" finally got everything right. The menu was completely revamped once again. Now included in the menu were some delicious and affordable options ranging from, the best burgers in town, macaroni and cheese, gourmet hot dogs, and numerous salad/pasta dishes. The prices are now in line with what they should be. And the beer selection is excellent. Check the chalkboard on the east wall to see what beers are currently on tap. Usually consisting of your favorite craft beers from all around as well as an excellent array of local Michigan brews. The wait staff is typically very friendly and attentive. The 2nd story (which is only open during certain occasions) will regularly host local bands, comedians, or dj's for live entertainment. If you're unfamiliar with what williamston has to offer, the williamston Pub & Grill would be one of my top recommendations if you're looking for a night out.

My Honey Balsamic Chicken was one of the best meals that I had at a restaurant in a long time! They have homemade salad dressings and the ranch was amazing! Excellent desserts, and reasonably priced. This is my new favorite date night place!

Gretchen Garry

Great food, good price. Don't really like the game nights though. People stay to play, taking up tables for diners. Maybe move the games upstairs.

Brandon Jamieson

Best food I’ve ever eaten! The 50/50 burger and the steak fajita were absolutely phenomenal. Carley the bartender is extremely kind and helpful. 100% recommend going if you’re here or driving by.

Amanda Walters

The food is overpriced and tastes bad, service might be worse then the food here. Have gone in a couple of times hoping for something different but it never is. Waste of money, go two doors down and get McDonald's.

Stephen Maxim

Very courteous wait staff. This place has delicious burgers made any way you want. I recommend the western burger.

Mark Crooks

Great place, good food ! All the servers and bartenders are great

A little high end prices for a casual atmosphere.

The meatloaf was some of the best I've ever had!!

Erin Cooper

Food was good. Not family friendly, as there are no changing tables in either bathroom.

Sandy Yard

What a fun place!! The pizza was amazing -- had the spinach dip, chicken with bacon. They had this fun trivia guy and my server was a delightful young lady with a brain named Olivia. Who could ask for more?!

Kristi Dunlap

Nice small town pub. Guest selection or drinks and food. Server was super friendly and got food fast. Pub was also clean! Not dark and dingy like some small town places can be. This isn't our first time there and won't be our last either. Definitely worth stopping and checking out.

Tycho Aussie

I took my wife here at the recommendation of a friend. The place was nearly full of other couples and adults who were celebrating a birthday. So it was moderately loud. It was also comfortably warm on the cold winter night. The pizza: such excellent crust! My only complaint was that the pizza was a little too light on spinach and a little too heavy on the cheese. The fish tacos were certainly good! The beer was "okay"; with a decent selection ranging from the regular to about a dozen craft beers. I would say the pub is a good place to take your date and you'll do well for about $30 - $35.

Scott Eryt

The service was rather slow, five tables and two people at the bar, really no excuse. I had the meatloaf, which tasted really good, however half of it was raw and the mashed potatoes (as a side) were cold. Gf got a chimichanga, that had cheese in it, was clearly stated no cheese when ordering, so that was sent back. As you can see by the picture; there was no adjustment to the bill at all. Shame I had high hopes for this place as there really are no good 'mom n pop' restaurants in the area. Let the search continue, will not be returning here.

Service was friendly and quick, food was tasty!

Gary Smeltzer

Hands down some of the best Pub food I have ever sunk my teeth in to. The service was great and prompt. Great place to eat and visit.

Kearn Reif

I've tried this place for the last few weeks and this is an average bar with decent bar food. It is about the only thing open late on Friday and Saturday in Williamston. I wouldn't go into the bar to order more than beer and shots. I have tried two separate trips and two different bartenders only to be disappointed with prepackaged syrups in my drinks that I could not finish.

Randall deBeauclair

My wife & I were in Williamston yesterday afternoon about 2PM for a play @ the Williamston Theater. Our 1st choice, Tavern 109 was closed due to a kitchen fire so we walked down the street to the Williamston Pub. We walked in and seated ourselves..it was not busy, probably about 8 or 10 people. We sat at our booth for over 5 minutes (felt longer) without being greeted, told someone would be right with you, or anything else. We finally got up, put our coats on, and left. Nobody noticed we were leaving or asked us anything. So, we can't comment on food quality, only the lack of service.

Stephanie Grace

Love this place. Best service hands down. Always have a good selection of craft beers, the food is good but can't beat the friendly service. This is our go to every week

John Jess

Great pub in a small town

Rodney Monroe

Great atmosphere and delicious food. Stop by and see for yourself.

Jeff Loucks

My wife and I have eaten here a few times. The atmosphere is pleasant and the staff are friendly. We really enjoy the cherry wood burger. If you haven't tried it, you really should. It is delicious!

David Smith

Wings are great, fish tacos are amazing!

Michael s

Great food, great service.

Jared Eberly

Great wings! The green tea shot is also one of my favorites. Super busy on Trivia night but other than that, you can expect fast friendly service

Brian thrush

Great service, thanks Carly Stenfelt. They need beer in frozen mugs. Would be 5 stars then.

David Close

Good food great beers on tap great staff!

Roseann Wood

Yum, fish dinner, fish dinner excellent! Service too.

Zach White

Amazing owners and staff, you won’t find a better burger or beer selection in town. Highly recommend the Cherrywood Burger and the Steak Bites.

Ryan Brunette

Great food and reasonable prices.

Mohammad Siryani

I've never been to this place but I saw a white truck driving recklessly on the highway with their name on the back. This should reflect back on the business. Cutting people off on the highway and speeding and going over 90 is dangerous.

Nancy Scott-Smith

Great service. Awesome Bloody Mary. Wonderful taco night and salad. Highly recommend!!!

Mich jj

Amazing food good tap selection all around a great pub

Karen and Frank Andrews

Great atmosphere. The mac and cheese and buffalo chicken mac and cheese were great. So were the meatloaf and steak sandwich. One of our burgers came underdone as did the sweet potato fries.

Jonathon Ellis

I've had really good food here. Just tried the Baja shrimp tacos - nice flavor, fresh taste. The decor is right out of a 70s barfly scene.

Christina Smith

Food great with great prices. Wait staff energetic.

Jerry Krevinghaus

Great Mexican food.

Eddie Gonzales

This bar is great and people for some reason hear one thing not even from there own experience and decide to write a review. Go drink your couple beers at tavern then

Stephanie Ward

Food was great and service was good.

Alicia Curtiss

Depending on the day it can be great.

Matt Engel

Good food, not super fast, but a great place to meet up with good friends.

Gloria Hastings

Yummy food. Haven't found anything that we didn't like. Sound is typical for a pub...pub sound. Lol

Pat Pixley

We had some of the poorest service tonight , my wife asked for a chocolate martini and never got it , she asked for a burger to be well done came out raw in the middle , sent it back and it took some time to get a new one we had dirty silverware and our waitress never came around to see if we needed refills . I had the fish which I will give credit it was outstanding but try to get tartare with the fish at the same time seemed to be impossible it took 10 minutes so cold fish. Would I recommend williamston pub sorry to say , nope not right now

Eric Major

I had a super good cherry wood Burger, the wait staff was incredibly friendly, the environment in the bar was very warm and welcoming, and the prices were Fair! I will definitely be coming back again.

Terry Abbruzzese

Small pub with big flavors! Excellent food and the drink menu is reasonable. Staff so friendly and service great even when packed! It's my goto place to dine in Williamstown!

Jane Grulke

Great food and great staff!!

Pete Ackerly

Nice locally owned restaurant.

Erin Fredericks

Fantastic pizza and a good beer selection make this a gem in Williamston. They have a pretty wide-ranging menu and do everything pretty well. Only bummer is that it gets pretty busy quickly as there aren't a ton of seats. We seriously have never had a bad meal here!

Phil Sczykutowicz

Trivia night was very entertaining. Great service and food to match.

Eric Lewandowski

Wonderful food and a nice beer selection. Great for families to come for dinner. The staff is great

Kurt Kramarenko

Food was mediocre. I had the fish tacos and they put a funky, almost sweet chili, sauce on them instead of traditional white cilantro sauce. Tasted more Asian than Mexican. However, the friend I was with got the club and said it was the best he had ever had.

Lisa Soluk

Even though waitress was very misleading on a menu item I still think this is a great place. Owner was quite pleasant. Chicken Alfredo and Mack n Cheese not recommended!

Rose McCrumb

Great food & atmosphere.

Mud Country Candles

Never disappointed when we order here...very happy customers .. thank you for great food!!!!
