Good food and fast service. It was a bit loud outside but we enjoyed watching all the Harleys come in and out

Food, service, and ambiance all top notch. If it wasn't so far away, I'd be a regular there.

Nice place, good seating, sweet views of TVS, bar setting, and good food. It could only be better if they didn't double fry French fries. They replaced the fries but I'm concerned about a kitchen that would deliver grease sticks vs fresh fries.

If I could give this place a -1 I would. The food was just editable, the fish was dry...over cooked. I could have even dealt with that ie bad night, LOTS of people, it was Elburn Days. But what happened next was inexcusable! I had a question on our check abut the surcharge fee on my DEBIT CARD. I asked to speak to the owner. Kevin the manager was sent over. He said if I didn't like the fee pay with cash. I told him I didn't have cash with me and he said "to bad pay the bill and get out. I told him it was a law, nowhere in the USA could any business chare a surcharge on a DEBIT CARD. He responded very condescendingly "oh I broke the law, why don't you call the police. I told him I would need is business license number. He told me it was on the wall take a picture. Then he followed me around the restaurant harassing me and telling me to take the picture and get out and never come back. I will NEVER go back to SCHMIDT'S TOWNE PUB

The four stars are purely for the service and fabulous patio. I can't say much about the food because all we had were the cheese curds and they were a 3 at best. 15 rock hard curds for $11...

Little town of Elburn in mid northern Illinois. Quaint little town, beautiful downtown area where Schmidt's Towne Tap is located. A fun place- hoppin' on a Friday evening. Great beers, good food, Harleys (and pretty girls) abound- yup! My kinda place! I'm in Illinois visiting family and we decided to drive the 10 miles north for Schmidt's rather epic fish fry. Atlantic Cod, of course, jumbo lightly coated Shrimp? You bet. But, you can also get Bluegill Fillets as well as Walleye Fillets! Now that's a fish fry! And when the pretty girls don't get your attention there's the rumble of Harley Davidsons! Then there's the occasional train and all the beautiful racket a train brings with it; whistles, clang clang at the crossing and that warm rumble of a passing train. Many might find such things annoying- not me! The sounds and smells of a modern small Midwest town are exactly what I love

Got to eat in another place in Elburn. It's not that much of a menu. Schmidt's is a pretty happening place. Looks like it's a sports bar that happens to have a little food. The beer and liquor is the best thing but if you're hungry enough you can get some barbecue or some grilled stuff. Another attraction is all the games. It has lots to play including slots. Those not wanting to play games can watch games on the many TVs. As for the booze it has lots. It's about $7 for whiskey. Food isn't as impressive. Lots of barbecue and it smelled overly smoked. Few vegetarian choices. Got some of the Soft Pretzel Sticks. It's about $10 which is kind of a lot for these. Basic looking pretzels that were probably frozen. They were good, just overpriced to be honest. For sure it's one of the happening places in town as it's always crowded. It's better to come drink than to come eat. This is one of the few places in town open all week that you can go to almost whenever.

Surprisingly good food for a "tavern" - large bar and nice outside dining/drinking facilities. A local staple in Elburn for many years because it's good.

Food was very good. Service was incredibly rude. Servers overheard making rude comments about patrons. Server tried to overcharge us when paying part cash part card. No question it was intentional. Watch your bill!!

A nice restaurant with a great outdoor patio. It is decorated really cute for fall too. We sat outside, had some drinks and food while watching the football games by the bar area. Comfortable tables and chairs! I could have sat there all day. We had a nice server and the food was really good! The cream of chicken and wild rice soup was delicious. My hubby had the patty melt and said it was good. My pastrami sandwich was awesome. Hearty rye bread toasted just right with plenty of meat and cheese. We both got a ton fries and the prices are not overly expensive. We will be back for sure! Don't let crabby reviews from Covid days deter you. Check it out.

The food is okay but the staff was very rude. They yelled at my daughter for bringing in a hot chocolate from across the street. I gave 2 stars because the outdoor patio is fun in the summer.
