    I’ve been here three times now. Will definitely be back a fourth! Food is too good! edit: this menu no longer exists. that past few times i have been in i’ve waited 30min-1 hour just to get my drink order taken. this place used to have a 5 page menu plus a burger menu (as pictured) but now it’s one double sided menu, and it does not contain any specials, you see them on the tv AFTER you’ve already ordered. i raved about this place to my family and was so disappointed when i brought them.

    Surprisingly interesting menu and we really enjoyed our food. Service was very friendly. We thought it would be a simple neighborhood bar but it was more than that. We'll be going back soon.

    We live in the Dundee area but somehow we kept overlooking this place when making weekend dinner plans. We finally decided to give it a try....only regret is that we waited so long to eat at this restaurant. Service folks were extremely friendly, food was delicious and prices were good. We look forward to going back in near future.

    Got food delivered from here and was very pleasantly surprised! The Pickle Rick spicy chicken sandwich looks unassuming but it is the perfect level of spiciness! The spooner was great too. Can't wait to try more.

    Really delicious. I tried the stacked meatloaf and will make it this way from now on. I also had the side salad with the house ranch. It was so good! I loved the fresh dill. My friend tried the huge portion of the mushroom alfredo and had to save some for later, but we both loved it too. We were shocked that it was so quiet on a Saturday afternoon.

    Very friendly staff and very quick service. Seemed very cozy and fun place to be. All staff wore masks appropriately. Their food and drink specials were amazing. We got the Chicken tenders on Thursday. I just wish the fries were a bit more crispy but that's just me being picky. Their house made sauces were awesome. Will be back again!

    The food was great... i tried the boneless wings. They tasted great and the fries were very good. The prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend people to visit.

    We had dinner with the family and we loved the cozy atmosphere. The menu has a huge selection including vegetarian options. The drinks were delicious and the service was awesome.

    holy moly this place is great! 🤩 i had the grilled cheese mac n cheese and the bavarian pretzel and let me tell you! that was the best pretzel i’ve ever had (cheese sauce needs work tho) and the grilled cheese mac n cheese was to die for! most foods like that are too greasy but this was not at all! the servers were very nice and super attentive! such a great little gem with a wonderful atmosphere. a lovely surprise to come across, definitely stop by!

    We went on a slow day, for us is the best time. We had the place to ourselves, Moscow mules were refreshing. The epic burger tower is a good call!! So good!! We played a few slots and won a $100! It was a good day!

    We attended a party there and it was a blast 🥳 The Coordinator was amazing and she even was our server for the entire event and even a bartender too. She's got a great work ethics and truly values her work. We met the Manager/Owner and he's awesome too. Food, drinks and customer experience is top notch 👌 Keep it up, so business continuous to prosper and grow.

    My side salad had the strangest ranch dressing I've ever tasted, but eh, it got the job done. My burger was mid, but well cooked! Fries were probs some of the worst I've had in a while. Lol. My husband enjoyed his fish and chips, tho. 🤷🏽‍♀️ Definitely won't be going back for the food, but the atmosphere was fun. Karaoke really brought the energy up that night!

    Saturday night, place was empty. Pop was flat and they tried to fix got us new ones with no luck. Understand this is more of a bar setting but when paying $3.50 for a pop it should be good. Cheese sticks and wings were decent. Even though it was empty had to wait for waitress no silverware… just a fork had to go ask for knifes wait for check etc.

    Food always tastes great here. Staff is always very friendly and courtesy. I love the wait staff and bartenders. I've never had a bad meal. I like that neighborhood bar feel. Everyone I've taken here really enjoys it here as well. If you're in this area or feel like taking a drive, this is definitely a place to check out!

    Nice atmosphere and was surprised by how delicious the food is! Friendly staff, great daily drink specials 👌 I highly recommend!
  • 5/5 Jean K. 10 months ago on Google
    This place is one of the very few bar type settings that actually has great food!! (Non like predictable bar food basically like bars have just grease and grime) it's Homemade and the mushrooms definitely homemade breading on and not frozen fried mushroom bs. Great salads, sauces, and grilled chicken was cooked perfectly and seasoned ideal. Thank you, we will see you again. !!!

    Having been 3 times we have found the food always consistent and good and the servers are on top of their sections. A great server can really enchance a dining experience and all three times we had charming and prompt individuals. The late night weekend vibe is also on point and a super fun bar!
  • 1/5 OG Kuai L. 1 year ago on Google
    We were at the bar waiting for our friend to come back to the bathroom, and we were told we had to order or leave. Very slow service when we did order, and a very rude server. She kept giving my party dirty looks the entire time we were at the bar. This isn’t the only time we’ve had problems at this establishment. It’s unfortunate that Bamboozels has become just another Dundee bar. And if you don’t know what that means, you don’t want to waste your time finding out. Drinks are cheap, so I guess you get what you pay for.

    best damn chili i’ve ever tasted!! also tried the bamboozels spooner and it was next level!!
  • 5/5 Tracy t. 1 year ago on Google
    Loved this place! Bartender was fantastic, although it was his first weekend it felt like he fit right in and made us feel welcomed. Ordered and ate at the bar. They do have a deck that allows 4 legged well behaved family out there. Will be back on next trip!

    My friend and I went today, 1st time there. Food was absolutely DELICIOUS 😋! Great atmosphere and our waitress Jen was cool! HUGE PORTIONS, enjoyed every bite, and a lot left over! Highly recommend it!

    We went for lunch and were the first customers at shortly after noon. A friendly hello and free seating choice greeted us inside. The menu is big, there is something on there for everyone. And reasonable prices, especially looking at the price hikes going on everywhere else! The Fish Bamwich was very, very good and a huge portion at that. I also ordered their pineapple BBQ sauce for my fries (homestyle) to dip in and that sauce was amazing as well. Thank you so much for a great, enjoyable and fast lunch! We will be back for sure 😊

    1st timer on a Thu night. Got the chicken finger basket that came with endless fries. They also have Michigan Cherry Virtue Cider. Chris, the owner, was there. Great guy. Check it out cool place. If I lived closer, I would go back often.

    Amazing bar with great food, friendly staff with a great atmosphere, if you're in the area it's definitely one of the underrated gems.
  • 5/5 Katy Z D. 2 years ago on Google
    I love this bar! It is very well kept and has a wide variety of drinks available. As a vegan, I also truly appreciate that they have options on the menu safe for me to consume (and is super delicious!). I would happily come here again!
