Savor Rockford: Local Restaurants You’ve Got to Try This Weekend
Weekends come and go, but the cravings never stop. That's how it is when you live in a town with tons of food options around.
Whether you're a Rockford foodie or just passing through, you gotta stop and explore the food scene around here. Not saying we have the best of the best, but pretty damn close with the amount of successful local restaurants there are.

I'm the kind of person to hop out of bed in a moment's notice when someone offers to take me to breakfast, lunch, or dinner. If it involves food, yes. I'm always down!
So, on the weekends, where do Rockfordians eat at the most?
Savor Rockford: Local Restaurants You’ve Got to Try This Weekend
- Ernie’s Midtown Pub
- Cheezy’s Grilled Cheeses
- Mama's Feel Good Food
- Sister's Thai Cafe
- Buddy's Burgers
- Lino's
- Rock Pho'd
- The original Opsahl’s Pizza
- Lydia's Cafe
- Gerry's Pizza & Italian Restaurant
- Ritchie's Smokin' BBQ
It could be for the vibe, the food, the nightlife, the busy atmosphere, or you're a regular at your favorite weekend restaurant. No matter where you're filling your belly, as long as you're keeping it local that's all that matters!
I'd say The Norwegian, Ernie's Midtown Pub, and Mama's Feel Good Food are my favorite weekend spots to grab food. Mama's is only open on the weekends, so I have to take full advantage whenever Saturday rolls around.
Tell me, where should I roll up to this weekend in Rockford? What's good? What's tasty? Where serves the best drinks? Who has the best customer service? Details, please! ASAP!
