The Scene
Many neighborhood pub/restaurants are content with mediocrity, but not the Comet Grill. The ground beef is grilled to just the level the law dictates (the rarer the tastier, but health is a concern), the kaiser bun is a step above, and the veggie toppings are always fresh. If you're wise enough to go for the cheese, you've made the right choice (especially if that choice is pepper jack).
The Food
Fries are cut right there in the kitchen and ladled with seasoning that sets them apart from any other version of potato ever seen in a bar. Other menu standouts include the veggie burger and the grilled cheese. There's more to a great neighborhood place than food, though. Come in more than twice, order the same thing and chances are Kathy will remember what you had.

I may be a bit prejudice since I've known the Wickers since dirt, but this truly is a great place to meet friends, have a cocktail or four, maybe a bowl of soup on a cold winter day or a chicken salad sandwich in the HOT summer day. If you can make it past 9PM, then settle back for at least one set from the plethora of music available. Some of the best musicians around and you never know who might show up unexpected. Many thanks to John and family for all the support they and their friends give to Holy Angels too.... Just too many good things to say about a great spot... Come send some time lunch time, late afternoon and on into the evening.. Spend money the do need to improve the A/C... Love you guys.

This local tavern/ diner serves very good sandwiches and burgers, but even better fries. Made with all of the right ingredients, why would you say no to the French fries? The employees are very nice and friendly often talking with customers when they aren't busy. The live music is awesome every time and the outdoor seating is a nice touch too. However, the service can be pretty slow during the busy hours. Oh yeah, be sure to come on St. Patrick's day, not for the beer, but for the great authentic Irish cuisine.

What a neat place this is. The food is great and the employees are even better. I take my mentally disabled son there to eat occasionally and they treat him with dignity, not the usual weird looks and finger pointing we get all too often. I love this place and would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone who likes a little hideout to retreat to. Yup and the food is good too.

The Extras:
On a given night, you're liable to encounter a host of musicians propped against the bar, drinking a cold Pabst or Johnson's. Other nights, they'll be in the corner with guitars and microphones, belting out some of the area's best roots rock.
