Roc's Blackfront Tavern and Grill

The Rueben sandwich they had on special was okay, but not as good as the one at Arby's (let alone anywhere else I've had one). The baked beans were straight out of the can; they don't add anything to make them taste good. Boring food.

From the atmosphere to the food and service it's a go to place for a tasty lunch with friends.

First time here and absolutely loved the food!Started with some wings, delicious and excellent sauce on them.The star though is the ribs. The best I've found in central Illinois. Reminds me exactly of Millers pub in Chicago. I'll definitely be back!

Unfortunately, they are having a hard time measuring portions. We added fries to 3 of our meals. 1 meal came with a big portion of fries. The other two meals had 4-5 fries with them. Hopefully, once they are fully staffed, things like this won't happen. The drinks were great, though!

Service and food were wonderful. I also had a side salad with ranch and the ranch is very good. My son had the chicken strips and liked them. My boyfriend said the burger was delicious. Bloody Mary, was great, lemon drop martini was just okay. All around good experience and my family and I will be back.

Great atmosphere, fantastic friendly staff. Kitchen to open back up under the awesome new ownership soon. Can't wait to enjoy some Ribs and tasty appetizers again.

This place is a gem! Nestled in downtown Charleston, it's an episode of Cheers where everybody knows your name or if they don't, they soon will. Friendly and knowledgeable bar staff, happy to engage in conversation and give you suggestions on the menu. I had the half rack ribs. Perfectly prepared. Literally falling off the bone with just the right amount of sauce. Broccoli steamed with a slight crunch and a potato that hadn't been sitting in a warmer for 3 hours. It's the middle of the Midwest so reasonably priced. Great beer selection. The bar and cooler are prohibition era and a sight to see. Far enough from the college campus, you can relax and enjoy great food and drink in this welcoming atmosphere. Worth a side trip when traveling across the countr

This must be a local place..... Lots of people knowing people...I went with 4 others for dinner. Had to wait 30 min for a table next to the front door... on a night where it was going to be in the 30's...Did not enjoy being in a drafty place..I had the walleye... I had better.What really pissed me off was another set of people waiting after us... the person must be a local... she whispered to one of the waiters to get the large table further away from the door...Though we were to next for that table... people in the other party were prepping the table for themselves...To the 'Locals'.... you can have your little eatery...Screw the out of towners....

Sad, use to be one our favorites. Had to find our own silverware to eat, no drink refills , 5% service fee ( that no one said anything about) wouldn't you think that they would be rolling out the red carpet for those of us that are trying to keep the economy moving. Customer service is the main concern if no one has told you yet.

Stumbled upon this place since we were staying at a B&B down the street. Patio sitting since Covid-19 happened which wasn't bad at all. I cant remember the exact names of the things we had but the pretzels with the beer sauce, salmon with fries, and half rack of ribs were all great! I also used the sauce for the pretzels and placed in my cheese, the best ever! We had a total of 3 imported beers. We paid $40 for everything plus tip. This place is comfortable and very reasonably priced. Most definitely cheaper than Chicago where we are from.
