Pookie's Beer, Burgers & Bocce: A Culinary Haven in Marion, IL

I Highly recommend Pookie’s Beer, Burgers & Bocce!!! The food is great.. From the starters to Burgers!!! The service was excellent… Super nice and always keep our drinks full!! Very nice place inside really clean!! I was too cold to sit outside, but that is an option when it warmer out

Was In Town for The International Baseball Tournament was invited to this place to hang with some people. They Didn't have there Pretzel Bites which I was really looking forward to Try got the Fried Pickles cause it said it came with BBQ Ranch got my order and only was Ranch no BBQ. We were told they offer a Military Discount never got that. The Pookie Burger was good. The Girl that was are Waitress I think it was just too much for her to handle this Big Party and we were told we had to leave by 9pm because of the kids from the Baseball Team cause they had a Band coming to play. Other than that everything was good Friendly people if I come visit the area again I would try and give another Shot

What cannot be said about this place, it's a second home for most of us. It's our neighborhood "Corner Bar" Damon and Shannon are amazing. It really is a family feel. Everyone welcome. You never know what to expect but its always ALL GOOD!. Whether your a local looking for a different scene or just passing through looking for a place to vibe out. Come check it out, you won't be disappointed!..

Passed through the area the other day and was pleasantly surprised to have such a great experience. The bartender was a great vibe and very accommodating. I have some food sensitivities and he helped make sure I was taken care of. He also made sure I had some water on a very hot day while I waited for my to-go order to be ready. Would definitely go back.

You have to try Coffee Burger and join it with Limon Margarita ! Cheers !

Great find! We were looking for a local place for lunch & boy did we find it! The greatest surprise is their bourbon selection. If your are looking to try some high quality bourbon, you should definitely come here! The beer on tap is cold and the lines are very clean! Oh & the food… The burger was very good. The fries we also quite good (they’re crinkle cut fries lightly salted for my French fry aficionados). The Italian beef was of decent quality beef, but the au jus was not great. Doesn’t matter though, come for the bourbon and the beer!

I tried out the Coffee Burger which the gentleman at the bar told me that the coffee rub doesn't taste like coffee it just makes it super tender. I will tell you it was one of the most tender burgers I have eaten. It had nice thick cut bacon, Gouda cheese, with a Dr. Pepper BBQ sauce that was good. I had it with classic beer battered onion rings and you could tell they were made in fresh oil. Food was Excellent. Service was Excellent. Kitchen was super fast. Huge selection of Great bourbons too. Wish I was staying the night in Marion I would have tried a few out.
