We're wrapping up #rockfordrestaurantweek with some special weekend features — Poutine, Blackened Snapper, Panfried Bluegill, and Prime Rib (Prime rib Saturday night only 4pm till we sell out). Kitchen rocks till 11p with our late night menu Friday and Saturday — and don't miss our to-go beer cooler either if you need some suds for the fridge. We've got everything from @millerhighlife to @pipeworksbrewing IPAs to @untitledartbev Hard seltzers in the grab and go fridge. And tomorrow our friend @jenny.fromearth and crew will be doing live portraits in the bar room from 430p-730p. They'll take a photo of you and your party, and while you enjoy your meal, they'll digitally draw a portrait (or caricature) of you and your guests — by the time you leave, you'll have a digital image in your email box. These might make an excellent Valentine's Day gift (hint hint). And throughout the month of February, We're featuring a special Old Fashioned made with @unclenearest bourbon, demerara syrup, Ango and orange bitters — for every OF we sell, Uncle Nearest makes a contribution to Historical Black Colleges and Universities. Thanks to @gorockford and all our fans for making this the best #Rockford Restaurant week ever!@rockfordrestaurantweek @foodoir_gallery @cityofrockfordillinois @buywbl @therockfordbuzz @timmsjeffrey @815foodie

So, soup flights are a thing now. Since so many of you have demanded this, we're running a "flight" of three soups for $10 — pick our Bison Stout Chili, Baked Potato Soup, French Onion or soup of the day (today it's Creamy Corn Elote). Add a side salad or some @turanobread and you're gonna be a happy camper.

Pub Trivia is back at Olympic! Every Wednesday at 7pm — four rounds of 10 questions and the winning teams take home $50, $25 and $10 gift cards. No entry fee, just grab a friend or three, meet at the bar at 7pm and we'll test your brain power! See our EVENTS tab for all our upcoming events, including themed trivia nights. (Tonight it's three rounds of general, and the last round is on Tom Hanks!)Plus our crispy fried wings are $1.25 each on Wednesdays too — don't miss our awesome Garlic Parmesan wings, or the (extremely) hot Scorpion Honey.

Happy Friday to our Rockford area fans — For lunch today we're grilling up freshly ground Pinnon Meats third pound Bratwurst on a soft Pinnons roll with our house IPA spiked mustard, kraut, and @mrs_fishers_chips — and we will be donating $10 from each one sold to the Pinnons family & crew. (We figured the best way to support our neighbors is to shop locally, so if you're not coming out to hang with us this weekend, consider stopping by Pinnons on your way home to grab dinner). Then at 4pm we'll roll out our dinner menu, featuring our always awesome Fish & Chips, plus panfried Bluegill, Bacon Wrapped Meatloaf, Cajun Blackened Land & Sea combo, and a few new appetizer features (our homemade hummus is back!). Need a late night snack? Our kitchen rocks till 11pm on the weekends (see our website at theolympictavern.com for current menu and draft list). Grabbing carryout?

Happy New Year's to everyone out there in Rockford, Beloit, Belvidere, Freeport and beyond. Thanks for another amazing year – we couldn't do it without you. We hope you'll celebrate with us Friday or Saturday with our special NYE menu featuring a chilled seafood platter, baked brie with bourbon apple butter and walnuts, blackened scallops, Surf and Turf, crab stuffed red snapper, plus special desserts like our homemade peanut butter creme brulee and a churro style pretzelSee the full menu at our event page on FB : New Year's Eve @ The Olympic Tavern and call for RSVPS at 815.962.8758. There's still tables left for saturday night, and if you stick around and make some noise at midnight with us, we'll have some complimentary bubbly for the night owls. And yes, we're serving our full menu. So if you're more in the "PBR and cheese curds" kind of mood, we got you covered too. Happy New year everyone. 🗓️
