Alger Bar & Grille

Love the Grille! The Patty Melt is I walked 5,000 miles to eat here ! Make sure you get the balls

The best fried chicken around. Most often the staff are on point and friendly. I've been eating there for years ! Really, you owe it to yourself to try the chicken !!!!

Thanks for cooking on a Sunday!Best fried chicken (and the jojos!) we've had in ages. Quick yummy cocktail and home with a bucket of awesome in time for the Kraken game. We appreciate you!Will 100% be back!

Great old school bar and grill. Fried Chicken is the best!! Gotta wait some times but worth it! I come here just before the car races.

I mean. If you're looking to hide in the booths deep dark , smoke out the back, drink good beer or cheap booze , eat some fantastic tater tots and share a decent club sandwich or burger while negotiating a super secret deal.... This is the place you want to be. Its been there for a billion years, great crossroads location and the only bar option for miles. The service is sweet, prices are fine, they leave you alone except for refills and while i wouldn't step to say the place is clean clean... neither was much of the conversation being had !

Hate to say anything bad about a place trying to survive during this COVID time, but the food is not good. It just didn't live up to the hype that we heard about. It is currently doing only to go orders food items from 4 to 8pm. We ordered hot wings, blue burger with bacon, and a side of their regular fries. Maybe the to go order made the food not as good if it had been for dining in. Here's my review on the food we ordered:Hot Wings -- not crispy--what you would find at any grocery store deli, no seasoning, and the lack heat and buffalo sauceBlue Cheese Burger- not fresh; taste like it a frozen patty meat that they heated upFries-- standard frozen fries heated upJalapeno Poppers- these were probably our least favoriteOverall-- it's mainly a neighborhood bar..and so for that it fits the standard of "bar food." Just didn't live up to the hype that we were told from friends. It is the ONLY restaurant/dining option in Alger. Spoke with the lovely waitress who took our orders and was informed that the workers were volunteering to work so that the cost of maintaining the place would be still open. It is definitely a local joint and from what I can tell supported by the surround locals in Alger. For that it is a gem and should be supported. I just wish it had better food so that I would support it more. Maybe we'll have to try dining in once Covid allows, and we'll have to try it again.

Not far from the freeway, although not much traffic wanders this way. A nice stop while driving up Old 99 for a burger and a drink. The day I was here the taps were out, so if you wanted a drink it had to be from the cooler. Plenty of good options including some local ciders. The burger was cooked a little more than I'd prefer, but still tasty. Crisp bacon makes everything better. Good tots!

The food is always good here whether you're going for quick and easy fried food (the fried chicken is great!) or if you're ordering a meal. There is typically only one bartender and/or one server working so if the place is packed service can run a bit behind, but that happens everywhere, and at least they're always friendly at the Alger.

Amazing! best set of bleu balls I've had in my life!chicken fried steak burger is to die for!

It smells like the carpet - yes, it's a carpeted bar - hasn't been replaced in decades. It's dark - not in a fun way. I cannot imaging eating here. It's not a dive, it's a dump.
