    Absolutely phenomenal menu and sure to be the best available choice in Valley Junction once it opens fully in March 2023. Loads of 4K TVs for all the games, a pool table, a massive patio with outdoor bar access that has views of the Railroad Stage make Bix & Co. a perfect and much needed addition to the Junction. The cheese curds are especially fantastic - surely the best available in the entire metro. Nothing on the menu is anything less than carefully prepared to be an absolute hit. It’s obvious the chef knows what they’re doing - and it’s fairly priced to boot. Seating is plentiful and comfortable, and one very large table is available to suit parties of all different sizes. Atmosphere is comfortable, casual, and up-scale - negating the somewhat “dive bar” vibe that some other places to eat in the area offer instead. You’re sure to find yourself staying for a few more beers once you sit down. The bar has a fantastic selection, with a little something to try no matter your proclivity. You can’t go wrong with Bix & Co. - this place is guaranteed to be a regular destination for other locals and an absolute must-eat-there for tourists shopping in the Junction.

    The food was pretty good. Loved the the grilled cheese and my wife’s turkey bacon melt. The boys didn’t care for the bun on the burgers. The wings were good.

    Bix and Co is great. Took our family of 4 with a 4 and 6 year old and they had a blast! They were busy with the lunch crown and we wanted to sit inside because of the heat and the hostess was great because inside was full and she got creative and put two 2-person tables together for us!! Service was fast and food came out fast as well. Tenderloin was great as they use a different style of breading more like a beer batter style and the chicken strips were the same. Kids meals were only $6 which is a deal! Wife had bacon blue burger which was a bit dry and needed a sauce. Onion rings were amazing and they serve em with a chick Fila type of sauce. $18 for a burger with onion rings....a little spendy. But we'll be back!

    Awesome People! Awesome Patio! Delicious Food! We had great service from the entire team! Patio is truly a gem in Valley Junction! We ordered the Fried Green Peppers app, BLT with pasta salas and Fried Chicken Sandwich with fries. Recommend all 3!

    Excellent sports bar. Lots of TVs and definitely better food than most sports bars. Pizza was good. Cheese curds were good but a bit different than typical - large cubes. Cocktails weren’t fancy but were very well made.

    Bix & Co. has been on my list and I finally got to try it today, whilst watching the IU/Purdue game and the MI/OS game. We were also wrapping up a massive blended family picture session down the street, so this was an ideal location for us, with a party of 13 + 1 service dog. Food was fantastic! Jumbo wings = served with hot buffalo & ranch. They have “the good ranch” but their “hot” isn’t hot, IMO; flavor was great though! Wings were meaty and cooked perfectly…(ie. not overcooked and dry). Cheese curds = are delish, however interesting only because they’re different than others. Interesting isn’t bad! They’re large cubes, not as rich as other cheese curds, but we liked them overall! BBQ burger extra patty = a pound of burger meat for one kiddo. He loved it, fries are thinner and crispier (think McDonalds fries) and piping hot. American cheeseburger = (not pictured) was equally as good. Gone before I could capture a pic! Kids pizza boat = a very thick piece of bread with pizza toppings. He didn’t love it but he also downed an adult cheeseburger beforehand, so the boat came home for an afternoon snack 😂 The Italian (pick your) breakfast bowl = loaded with eggs, potatoes, graziano sausage, hot giardiniera, Bix white sauce, cheese and a side of toast. Mmnnnnnn! A great, hot breakfast, flavor was spot on. The only thing that could’ve made this better was topped with a runny egg instead of scrambled, but that’s just my personal opinion. Bacon and cheese breakfast pizza = thin, crispy crust and it was delicious. Served with some Bix white sauce on the crust, and scrambled eggs. It was awesome! Tenderloin sammy = for a family member, born and raised in Iowa, that has since moved out east. She says it was the last food item she needed to complete this family trip back to Iowa. So far, she’s had Casey’s taco pizza, Dorthy Lynch’s salad dressing, a few local beers, Kolaches buns, Iowa sweet corn, and I’m sure I’m missing some others. But the tenderloin here at Bix, she says, hit the spot and rounded out the final food she wanted to eat before leaving. Nashville HOT sammy = (not pictured) was not hot at all, and probably our least favorite meal. It was just so so, they could make this so much better IMO. However, plenty of other foods to try so we did t leave hungry! It was very loud inside with several 🏈games going but it’s to be expected; we weren’t bothered and went intentionally to watch football. Our party of 13 had to be split into 2 separate tables due to seating size, for those planning larger parties here; set up isn’t ideal for larger groups. Service was great, as busy as it was we didn’t wait a crazy amount of time for our food (given how packed it was). — at Bix & Co.

    This sports bar has a very welcoming vibe. The servers are great. Next time, maybe we will have to try their pizza.

    All I got to say is "Amazing!" Food, Staff and the Environment. You bet I'll be back. HOT Italian Beef was really good and my date loved her Cheese Burger. Management: I'm glad you are part of Valley Junction. See you back soon.
