Great place to meet old friends.
Friendly, attentive cold beer.
Great find at the end of a busy dad's weekend at U of I.
A nice quiet bar, but the neighborhood kind
Free live music, good drink prices, nice low key place to hang with friends
Good food, the servers are kind, even though it's a bar they have things for kids (ex. They can order candy from a window).
Great neighborhood bar, craft beer selection far better than the norm, especially for the location. An old timers bar with everything a hipster could want. Brian is a pleasure to deal with. Fantastic place to watch a game and sip a beer.
Absolutely love this place and the bands!
Friendly neighborhood atmosphere.
Better local bars for good food a best drink prices
I am a townie, and have been going there since the 70s (when my buddy's paper route went by there) and always stopped to buy candy. Been going there for beers since the 80s. It's a simple neighborhood place, not much of a menu, friendly to townies and quiet (and not too drunk) students. Great music on the weekends. Lots of screens for sports. Reasonable drink prices. An institution.
It was pretty quiet on a Tuesday night. Their selection of beers on tap and in bottles is better than I expected. I didn't see any local (CU) beers.
