I thought we’d make like The Commodores tonight and hit a Brick House!
More specifically, the Brickhouse BBQ•Burgers•Brews in Washington, Illinois. They have a nice bar in there and it’ll serve as our 256th stop on this 365 tour!

Bar Number 256: Brickhouse BBQ•Burgers•Brews, Sunday, November 8, 2026
Here we are at the Brickhouse in Washington, Illinois. Last time I was here was when I came here for a Saturday night dinner back in April of 2023.
Wow, I can’t believe that was over three years ago! Let’s go in and see if it’s changed at all in there!
Hello Fall and hello bar! It looks exactly the same in here and that’s a good thing!
Let’s grab a seat at the bar and get settled in on this Sunday evening in Washington, Illinois.
Gabby was the pretty and friendly bartender on duty and here she is serving me up a bottle of Budweiser and she took my Sunday night dinner order.
Things are going lovely in here so far!
There’s the back of the bar and as you can see, they have a large selection of beers on tap back there. They even have a draft beer menu!
There’s two communal tables behind the bar and more tables and chairs behind them.
They have two gaming machines opposite the bar in here.
Here's the dining area on the other side of the room.
Meanwhile, back at the bar, it looks like Sunday dinner is just about to happen!
Presto-pa-looza…it has arrived!
I remembered the Burnt Ends were really good last time, so I ordered them again along with a side dish of Mac and Cheese.
Let’s dig in!
The Mac and Cheese was really tasty!
It was a creamy and rich treat and we’re off to a fabulous start on our Sunday night dinner in here!
There’s the Burnt Ends and they come with three different styles of homemade barbecue sauces.
I thought I’d try each one out and choose a favorite from the three, so let’s go and get all sauced up in here!
They were all really tasty sauces and I was having trouble figuring out which was my favorite.
Then Gabby came over and said some people like to combine the Sweet with the Spicy or Tangy sauces and that gave me an idea…
I combined all three and that was the way to go!
This trio of sauces combined was the perfect complement to the savory and smoky Burnt Ends! A real tasty treat!
