Low key vibe, felt like it was 1990 between the prices and the atmosphere. Food was ON POINT! Best burgers we have ever eaten with a 1990 price tag. Jukebox with good tunes. Check it out!
If youre looking for a down home dive bar, this is it. The atmosphere is usually pretty calm and personable. Ive been going here since I was a kid to get burgers. Best burgers in Decatur! Bartenders always make you feel at home. I love this place and its a staple of the West end.
They accommodated our party of 20 people at noon right as they opened. The bartender was very professional and she worked to feed our party with delicious Winery burgers. I know she was slammed, but she maintained her composure and served everyone with a smile. This was the first Winery burger for my little ones and they loved it! This is why the Winery is a business we are treasure to have in Decatur.
Love me some Winery burgers! This a great, friendly neighborhood bar on Decaturs west end near Millikin University. I remember these burgers from my college days. They still make the most best smash burgers in town. I usually see either Joe or Cam when I am there for an evening burger. On this night, Cam was holding down the fort by himself...and made up an awesome double burgers with cheese ! Yum. Washed it down withbice cold beer... thanks Cam ! I will be back sooner than later..CHEERS!
Joe is the best!! I will never know how he remembers everything. Not just how you like your drink.But if your kid just had a birthday or to tell you happy mothers day or ask about your job. No words for how good the Winery burger is. Philly steak cant be beat either.
Always a good time! I enjoy hanging out with my daughter at The Winery. Hmmm now Im craving a Winery Burger!4/7/22 - Went for a Winery burger + jalapeño chips!! MmmMmm So dang good!Good time, great service, and ample parking.4/8/22 - (see pics) Winery Burger w/ everything delivered by my daughter. OMGsh so good!6/24/22 - 3 of us today. Winery Burgers for all! Slots for two. I sat in booth watching sports on one of several screens.
Dirty, falling apart, hot, NEVER answers phones, lazy bartenders, broken darts and one disgusting pool table. Needs to be shut down. Has black mold. Is not up to code.
Locally owned bar and grill with a very small town atmosphere. Joe and the staff always make you feel welcome. Jukebox is usually loaded and the game is always on. Everyone has their masks on, and food prep is done in front of you so you know exactly what goes into making your meal. Pretty cool place to be, especially on this end of town. I’ll absolutely be back.
Best burgers in town!!!Simplicity its what makes them so good!!!
Born and raised in decatur and going to the Winery since the early 90s and have had quite a few friends run the package liquor drive through over the years. They have continued to have great burgers and the best place to come and see people you havent seen in 20 years. if you stop in for the holidays visiting family everyone always goes to the Winedog when visiting town. Glad its still a tradition.
Best burgers in central Illinois.
On Friday afternoon I took my handsome hunny out for a quick lunch date. We were in a great mood and feeling easy going. When we entered we saw people standing around but nobody really looked as if they worked there so we found a place to sit. We waited quite a while and a woman walked out of the back and asked very firmly what we wanted to drink, I asked if I could look at a menu than she very RUDELY told me she wasn’t asking what I wanted to eat and then told me again that she had only wanted my drink order. Its not what she said its how RUDELY she said it. I have been in the service industry my entire life, she could have said that a million different ways. We left and enjoyed a nice lunch with great service at University Dogs.
Best damn burger in town.
Great hamburgers and beer at good price 😋
First time I had their double cheeseburgers, I knew I found my new hang out spot. Great old school decor, plenty of cold beers and always a ton of credits on the jukebox. Friendly and hospitable and more important, personable.
The place may SEEM a bit rough on the edges but hey, its a bar. Its got some of the best burgers in decatur Illinois, and its good to take the kids to in the noon/afternoon. This is also dependent on how youd want to raise your child, but its a nice enough place to take the teens!
Great college and local bar. Pretty much the same for 45 years. Amazing burgers!
Cozy little hole in the wall bar. Bartenders were great, and friendly.Their burgers were the fantastic highlights of the menu -- according to my friends.No vegetarian options, however, other than Miss Vickis chips. :-/
The absolute best burger Ive had in Decatur!! Friendly service and nice atmosphere to enjoy your lunch or Dinner. Hard to believe the place wasnt full of people during lunch on a Friday. No worries....more for me lol. Seriously, all around great place!!
Best burger around! Staff is amazing and always so welcoming every summer!
Wonderful nights wonderful burgersGreat conversation. Joe is a really great person enjoy his service. And the winery is always busy. I love it.5 STAR FOR ME PERIODT.
The Winery is a Decatur fixture for a good reason - the old jukebox and the amazing burgers are the highlights. Mixed drinks are good and theyre stocking more bottled beer varieties. Glad to see it. Bathroom facilities are not the best
As always, the best burgers on the West End! Joe and his crew are always on point. 4 stars would be an insult. Gambling and great music!
I love sitting at the bar and talking to Joe Campbell. Always have great service. I enjoy hearing all of the classic tunes on the jukebox while eating one of the best burgers Decatur, IL has to offer.
Joe (owner) is great he always makes a great staff. small but not too small. Food is really good and pricing is great. My friends and I usually go here to play Poole and for more of a relaxing experience instead of the partying one.
Good, affordable food. Good place to go to hang, night out drinking or not. As I said the food is good AND cheap but there is no downside for it being inexpensive, its great. Got 2 burgers and 2 drinks for $9. Good selection for drinks as well.
Stop by the one rain to grab what was 1 of the best burgers in town. Not only did the service suck seriously. The Burger is not same as it used to be and had no salt no pepper nothing on it , it was so bland. :( for Decatur Illinois
I had a cocktail, no good, but I like the dar beer and shot joint vibe. Service was good...Ill definitely be back
Nice little place for a tasty burger and good people!
Great atmosphere and quick service! First time visit tonight, fast easy and affordable. Food was great for bar food menu. Date said burger was best ever in Decatur!
Stopped by for a drink. The bartender was very nice and friendly. Will definitely be back.
This bar is amazing! With fast and friendly service , really good location. I felt relaxed the moment I step inside. There’s an minimum 10$ visa or MasterCard the prices are really reasonable Considering the great location.
Food was amazing and so was our server/cook. They were pretty busy and she was on top of things. The Carolina Burger I will def go back for!
Their burgers are the best ever still to this day. But everything else is just OK
This small bar is home to awesome staff and addictive food. You can find the perfect mesh of decatur culture, hipsters, college kids, and usually Homeless Sherry in the parking lot😂 You disnt get the decatur experience if you didnt have a winery burger and give sherry 2 dollars😂
This is by far the Best burger in the midwest. The place will make you think twice, but looks can be deceiving. Great service!
Horrible will not ever return
If you arent getting drunk with your family here then you are doing it wrong. They also have awesome hamburgers.
Got kicked out even though I had legal identification, was sober, and just sitting down listening to the band. The person who was cleaning off the table and IDed me was completely inebriated and checked no other IDs at the table but mine. I was older than everyone at the table but I was also the only black one. Never going back.
The college, home town bar. Has not changed in 50 years. Where I got my first legal drink. Burgers and beer. Tight place. Proud to be an alumni. A must when in Decatur
Cute little hole in the wall and friendly staff! Ive also heard their burgers are amazing!
Great atmosphere, great burgers and excellent service. You wont find anything fancy here just a damn good burger and beer.
Its a little hole in the wall bar with a great atmosphere and great burgers to match. A staple of Decatur

You cant not consider yourself a Decaturian and never go to the winery. It is the quintessential rite of passage bar for our city.
