Description

Specialties

Dock Rotz Tavern specializes in hearty, homecooked comfort foods and an amazing craft beer selection (24 available on tap). We have a warm, welcoming atmosphere with a beautiful custom made bar built out of stone and barn wood. Dock Rotz Tavern is a great place to bring the WHOLE family (we have a nice selection for the kiddos to choose from) or just grab a pint with some friends after work. We have 17 large HD tv’s including a giant projection screen to watch all the games on (ps…NFL Sunday Ticket is here)!

History

Established in 2013.

Dock Rotz Tavern is fairly new so right now, our «history» is still being created. However, what we want to become is a part of the community… not just a restaurant/​bar. We want people to bring their family, friends, and colleagues here and enjoy what we have to offer; fabulous, home cooked meals and great bar creations… along with outstanding service!!! We want to be the local hangout and develop relationships with our guests. We want to give back to the community that has already given us so much!

I left a «tip» when I meant to write a review. Look for that in the tips section! I’m the guy with the same name and picture (hint: I’m gorgeous)!

We really enjoy going here to watch the Bears game. The first time we went here the male bartender wasn’t real friendly… but we gave it a second chance because the burgers are amazing! Second time and there after the bartenders are more friendly. They have a huge variety of tap beers and drink specials. They bar area is very nice and I really like the décor. The burgers are handmade and did I mention delish? This is a place that we will be returning to again & again:)

Small Town Hotspot! Bartenders and servers are always nice. They have daily food specials that are cheap and delicious! Tons of different craft beers on tap, live entertainment often. Small but fun. Drinks are reasonably priced. I visit here every time I come to town.
Good Eats: Tacos, burgers, cream of chicken soup is out of this world!

I really like Dock Rotz so far. Haven’t had anything I have disliked and the service has always been great. I haven’t spent any time in the bar yet as we’re normally with our child, but it seems like a good place to just go have a drink as well. The beer list is good and they have a decent sized patio.

Went for lunch last Sunday for the first time. Had the cream of chicken soup, veggie burger, and this delicious pumpkin pie desert (I can’t remember the name, but it was to die for). Waitress was friendly and food came it quickly. We sat near the bar area and they have a great collection even on draft, looking forward to trying some next visit!

Really good food and a cool atmosphere! They are a little slow with service and there is one gemtleman bartender that can sometimes come off really rude but we love this place for the food and beer selection!

Great atmosphere! And they have wonderful service. It also helps that they make some great salads. Try their buffalo chicken salad.

Have visited this establishment several times now. Food is good service ok but would like to see food hotter, got the loaded french fries and they were cold. Waitress didn’t visit table until she brought check so couldn’t send back fries.:(

Went last Wednesday night pretty late. We had a table of 5 and the food was noticeably improved. Pork came out steaming hot. Mac and cheese was smooth and creamy. Wings were prepared well. Liked the mango habenaro sauce. Hope they keep it up :)

My husband and I went to Dock Rotz on July 25th, 2015. We went because they had advertised Poison’d Crüe playing the day after my husbands birthday. We had dinner in the dining room before the show. I had the buffalo chicken salad with a very generous glass of Chardonnay. My salad was just spicy enough. It was delicious. My husband had the sloppy burger with a beer the server recommended. The food was great, portion size was perfect. The service was very good. We went out to the patio to watch the show. We were able to take our drinks out there. The show was fantastic. The band was very talented. We had a different delightful server on the patio. We had a very memorable evening. I would definitely go back.

Their lunch specials are pretty good. I brought my mom and brother out here to eat and I was looking for something more on the affordable side… and then I ran into Dock Rotz. The hamburgers were good, but the service itself was kind of slow. We sat ourselves in confusion after realizing… that’s what you’re supposed to do. Alrighty!
Overall the food was really good. I hope to come back over here again sometime and take a taste out of their beer selection!

The food is decent. The drink selection is pretty good with a good variety of beers and nice drink specials during the week. There is entertainment on the patio on the summer as well. Only problem is service in the restaurant is usually pretty slow, even when not busy.

Never going back. Couldn’t get waited on when they first opened. Swore I would never go back. Tried one more time a few minutes ago, now I promise never to return. Girl couldn’t figure how to use register and never acknowledged I was sitting there. Not busy.
Suggest you go to the office, got my beer poured before I even sat down.

Awesome food, awesome prices! The staff was fairly friendly, but I can’t expect people to be super chipper at 10pm on a Saturday night when all they want is to go home. We will definitely be visiting again.

Went here for the first time tonight. Beer selection gave many options. Loved my pick! Met up with 4 friends and all enjoyed the food. One in my party ordered the club and said it was the best she ever had! Wow. Service was great. I will be back with the family next time. Great to have a local business worth supporting. Saving the last star for a second experience…

Great food and a very nice atmosphere. Servings are large enough for two people. The wait staff has always been attentive and pleasant.
