The Spot Tavern of Marengo

**A Hidden Gem with Great Food and Prices**The Spot in Marengo is a local bar with some truly delicious food at unbeatable prices. Their hamburgers are 3/4 lb of fresh ground beef, and they're priced under $10--something you rarely see in 2024! They also have great weekly beer specials, like a bottle of Old Style for just $1.50 this week. The service from the bartenders is exceptional. Whether you're just passing by or making a trip, The Spot is definitely worth a stop. You can't go wrong with a delicious hamburger and an ice-cold beer!

Went to "The Spot" in Marengo Saturday afternoon to celebrate after my friends won a bowling tournament. First time there. Great local place. Double smashburger with cheese was excellent. The bun was soft but hearty enough to handle the double burger. The chips were homemade. I'm not a cole slaw guy, but my buddy loved the apple chunks in the slaw, so he devoured both servings. The beer was cold and served in a frosty pint glass. Service was very friendly and prompt. Good crowd of people enjoying themselves, too. Happy vibe.Two burgers with chips and slaw, and 4 pints of beer totaled $24.50. Great value. Highly recommended.

Another great day, ride, and burger. Voted by 100% in our group as the best or second-best burger so far this year! The 3/4 lb fresh patty makes all the difference between a good burger and a great burger. A quarter pound burger, even when triple stacked, is never as good as this 3/4 lb burger. The bun today was signature branded and was perfect and didn't compete with or detract from the burger but became one with the burger. The properly stacked burger toppings held their individual flavors with each juicy bite!!! A must visit place in Marengo, IL.

Food was great kids enjoyed themselves we had a great time will be back loved the peanut butter bacon jelly and some grilled onions ....

The burgers are hand made fresh, no frozen. Home made potato chips. Well worth stopping here for lunch or anytime.

Music Bingo a must on Monday nights. Food is great especially the burgers, Everyone is extremely nice and friendly. Ray the DJ will make you laugh such a great spirited guy.

Wow! Wow! Wow! I've never even been to Marengo for "fun" but we met up with some friends today. Great drinks, great service, and AMAZING prices! Even if we aren't out riding, this burger is worth a visit. $1 homemade Apple pie shots on Sundays.

Stopped in after hiking in the area. Slow service but excellent burgers. They are huge!Minimal street parking out front. They also had a lot of regulars.

Can't say enough goodness about this place! Staff is phenomenal, friendly and attentive and helpful even to goofballs who can't grasp time zones! And don't get me started on the ridiculousness of this cheeseburger and steak fries!

This is the friendliest little bar I've ever walked into. Four of us walked into The Spot looking for a burger or fish fry. No tables open so we went for the bar. As usual, it was full. When two couples asked if we were there to eat. As soon as we told them that we were there for dinner, they jumped out of their seats and gave them to us!! The food is just as friendly. Smash burgers were special that night and were wonderful... We will be back! Thank you Marengo!
