Sticks Pub and Grub a spot worth seeking out

If you've driving down Route 14 from Crystal Lake to Barrington, you've passed Sticks Pub and Grub. You might not have noticed, but it's there, and you should certainly seek it out. We stopped by for a midweek lunch and found out why it keeps being honored in our Best of the Fox contest. Most recently, Sticks Pub and Grub was honored as one of the best neighborhood bars and tavern pubs. Located just off Route 14 in Fox River Grove, Sticks Pub and Grub has a decent-sized bar and dining area.
