Lisa’s Crown & Hammer Restaurant & Pub

I like to antique, during our visit to Collinsville, we stopped in for a bite to eat, sorry I always seem to forget to take pics. My wife has a veggie burger, I had a burger as well. The food was decent, nothing wrong there. The big impression was our waitress, my wife and I can’t recall her name. However, we commented to her on her great service, we spoke a few minutes and she has been a waitress for some time. She was so dialed in, on so many aspects, we were impressed. One of the main reasons we will be back.

The food here is excellent and the owner is a lovely person but she simply has to do something to speed up the kitchen. Last night my boyfriend and I went there for Valentines Day dinner and it took 45 minutes from placing our order and receiving our food. The place was not busy, in fact it was half empty. Being a scratch kitchen is no excuse. There are other restaurants that make meals from scratch and don’t take nearly as long.

Lisa's Crown and Hammer in Collinsville was ok. Great looking place with a nice old atmosphere. Service unfortunately was forgetful and flighty, but friendly. Time to get food, like so many others have mentioned, took a LONG time. Ordered a Parisian Burger medium, but it was served very overdone. This was disappointing as the restaurant was not busy at all. Crispy Chicken Sandwich is a hefty size and tastes great. French Fries are cut in house but were lukewarm at best when served.

Great space full of character. I was expecting more of a bar with some tables to eat, but it’s more of a restaurant with a very cool, secluded, and cozy bar area. The service was great and the cowboy burger was delicious, I love that they use English muffins as the bun. Also the hand cut fries were an unexpected treat!

First time here. We ordered the rigatoni bolognese. Tavern burger (no bun) and a French onion soup with a side Cesare salad. The burger was not only cooked perfect, but thank god it was seasoned so well!! Plus not ordering a bun, I figured that I would have blood in my plate from resting. But the chef definitely pre rested the meat. So happy for that. The onion soup broth was so flavorful!!! And the rigatoni bolognese meat sauce was incredibly tender and flavorful!!! Keep up the good food
