The Blackboard Cafe - Windsor Locks

Decent bar food a lot of space. Beverages are quite expensive, a very small wine splasher (1/2 wine 1/2 Seltzer water) was $7.50.

I 'll be back! I presumed (and failed) that this establishment would offer traditional bar food. What I found was bar food with a twist AND on steroids! A dear friend and I started with the Spinach Artichoke dip. OMG! The next plate to hit til the tabletop was a Daily Special [that shouldn 't be daily if you know what I mean? A unique shrimp concoction (Boo. boom Shrimp) that should be illegal! Wink!! Wink!! I 'm going back!!! The final entre for the table was created in honor of a patron, Rudy! OMG! Slap my Momma and call me late for dinner! This was confirmed as 'Gospel ' as another customer conveyed the same sentiments with a vocal appraisal I thought was clear my throat mischief instead of relation from the Rudy! That good? asked his wife. The man rolled his eyes and shared. She also made the same sound! This caused a third table to order the same item, and the couple 's grandmother expressed that she had not tasted a burger so good since she was a kid. Her first burger in America! The waitstaff was cordial and friendly yet professional, and the food from the kitchen was timely and succinct with the movement requests of the wait staff and bartenders. A well choreographed and rehearsed dance of perfect timing personified! During my time in direct line of sight, I never saw an order sit for more than a few moments before it was delivered to the correct table. Time from the kitchen to the table was about 90 seconds on average. Yes, I timed it!! So BE CAREFUL when your order arrives at the table it 's fresh off the flames HOT! THANK YOU to the back and front of the house and whoever hired, trained, and coordinated the performance I witnessed last night!

I always have a great time, the owner is very friendly. Back in march I had a meet and greet for a forum I have online and everyone had a blast. The large Jenga was a hit! Pool tables? there is a lot to do to keep conversation flowing. Definitely one of my favorite mom night out places to go!

Amazing spot to watch the last quarter of a big football game. Definitely not a family spot, as it's a smaller bar with a few tables but several table games lol pool, shuffleboard, foosball, and air hockey. Fish and chips are amazing chips (fries) particularly. Loses stars for $2.99 coke (usually cheaper at bars to encourage a DD) and $1.50 for a refill?? $4.50 total for 50¢ of soda.

Great burger, perfectly grilled and seasoned. Recommend asking for some of their Boom-Boom sauce as it was a great add. Fries are amazing and a wide selection of beers.
