Great establishment to check out. Tired of the chain restaurants and love checking out and supporting the local small town places to eat. Food and service was great! Can’t wait to visit again.

I was looking for a low-carb meal, they were amazing at helping me decide. We were just stopping for some food, but they offer other things as well. Great place, great staff.

Very good place to relax and grab a bite and a drink. The owners are awesome... a husband and wife duo, they want everyone to feel comfortable and happy. They do events throughout each week, like live music or Euchre tournaments and they have special "holiday" events like an Adult (21) Easter Egg hunt! They have good food, a beer patio, a good range of jukebox music, and great people. If you are looking to get out of town but not lost in the boonies... The Grove is the place for you.
