Very neat bar and grill. The building itself is true piece of Herrin history. Love the exposed natural brick on the inside walls. Hopefully it has some longevity this time because it has closed down a couple times, and I would like to see it last. The food was excellent , I had the patty melt and it was delicious . My wife had the Buffalo wrap and she really enjoyed it. The wraps are big and filling. I look forward to visiting again next time I am in town. The beer selection definitely needs increased, but I am sure they will once they get going at full capacity. Awesome friendly service as well! Ask for Bailey she was an amazing server!

Our first time at the Frenchman’s Widow, it did not disappoint. We both ordered the fish sandwich with a side of fried mushrooms. The fish sandwich was huge. Came with plenty of toppings. Everything was delicious. Look forward to going back. Friendly atmosphere, great service with a smile.

We just had a couple beers and appetizers. They could add to the beer selection. We got the spinach dip and fried cheese curds. Both were good. We will be back to try more food.

Delicious!!! I ordered a buffalo chicken salad (substitute blue cheese for feta). It was huge!! The veggies were cut in bite sized portions and so was the lettuce. I’ll be back! First responders discount too!!

So many options. Something for everyone. Inside and patio seating available. Dinner, lunch, drinks with friends…… you can’t go wrong with this location. Nikki, the manager, took good care of our group, making sure we had enough room to accommodate our needs. Lexi was our server. We had a party of 12 and she was fantastic.

We ate there for the first time ever this weekend. Will definitely become a regular. Food, service, quality and price are great. Be sure to ask for Amy. She is special.

Short menu usually means good food. It does here. Nicely revamped corner bar. We had a Widowmaker and a French Dip. Delicious fries and shrooms.
