Roch's Place - Saint Joseph

One of our favorite spots!! Small city atmosphere, friendly and welcoming! Eating is always good! Never had any problems! Food: 5/5

Service and food were spectacular. Got the double Frisco melt, pommes and split the pepper jacket cheese. Absolute place on and would definitely recommend. TV is on almost every wall and great for playing days. I heard from locals sitting next to us that quite a lot called the whole menu as highly recommended. I'll try again.

Everyone is so nice and go above and beyond it is a wonderful place to go to

This one hurts. Honestly, there 's no restaurant I 've ever traveled so far to dine at. 2,035 miles. Okay, I didn 't travel the majority of those miles JUST for this place...I was about a hundred miles away for another obligation. But still, even that hundred miles was the furthest I 'd ever driven to check out a place. But I had to be here. I HAD to do this...for the name 's sake. Roch 's Place. It 's my name too. 3rd proud generation of Rochs from France to America dating back to the late 1800s. So, when I sat down and ordered my beer, I slid my drivers license on the bar showing the bartender and telling her my story and that I 'd love to meet the owner if he 's around just to say hi and all that and, hey do you sell any merch I can take home? She hears me out, looks at the license and says; Oh, wow, how cool. and that was that. It wasn 't particularly crowded, save for an obnoxious f bomb dropping patron 3 beers in. But that 's fine it wasn 't about me it was about wanting to connect with the namesake of this place and/or at least have a touchpoint that made my long trip worthwhile. For food, I ask the bartender what the locals like and she says, oh, the CHICKEN TENDERS are great. . Typically, when ordering tenders at other restaurants, you 'll find an emphasis on the tender aspect. Not here. Over battered and over fried to death. Batter to chicken ratio 2:1. Not kiddin '. At some point a replacement bartender stepped in. I told her my 'Roch story ' and asked again about the merch. After showing zero interest in any of it, she says; I 'll ask and let you know about the shirts. I don 't know if we sell anything. I said; Now? And she said: No, come back and I 'll see. (I took that as; I can 't help, come back and maybe someone else who cares more will. Maybe. Nope, I won 't be back. I 've been touting this place on socials for over 2 years and plugging my trip out to visit it for a couple of months even going so far as to post on their page. No other visit could possibly make this place better. Sure, this is probably a nighttime hang...live guitarist out there on the deck, locals gettin ' their drink on and the food, obviously, nothin ' but a weak afterthought. But, if you 're going to go to the trouble of being open for business, be OPEN, be present. Be anything but this.
