The Rockford
Tucked upstairs on the 300 block of Glenwood is the Rockford (320 1/2 Glenwood Ave.). a small bar and eatery that offers a big menu. It’s been a while since i visited, I’m glad i went back.
Most of their meals come with a side, I’ve always been partial to the garlic mashed-potatoes. Today though they were offering grilled mushrooms or green bean casserole as well.
It was cold outside today so i started with their soup. Today’s soup was tomato artichoke bisque. It was defilntely worth a try. Very rich with pieces of tomoato and artichoke, not a puree’d liquidy soup.
I went with the mushrooms. I thought that would match well with my heated hot roast beef sandwich. I was definitely impressed, a very tasty sandwich.
I’m going to put The Rockford back into my lunch rotation. I love their mission style burrito. (a veggie burrito with black beans and fresh herbs)
