Best place to go during college football game day.
Awesome food. The Linebacker burger is huge! Bartender friendly. Place quiet today but it was't yesterday on game day! We'll be back!
Crowded on weekends but great staff and cheap drinks! If you like dancing on weekends, this is the place for you.
A good place to have your car broken into. Hipsters everywhere.

horrible experience. My latino boyfriend and I were just chatting and eating popcorn in a corner I was told to leave by the head bouncer because I was "too intoxicated". When I asked why, the bouncer at the entrance just shrugged and said "because the head bouncer said so". I pointed out that I hadn't even used the free drink ticket I got from the entrance and that I was sober. The head bouncer came over and made up a random excuse that my "boyfriend was holding me up". I looked over at the cop also at the entrance but he just looked away. Honestly felt really powerless in the moment because I had done nothing wrong. I was sober and was not causing any disturbance. I didn't even dance or do anything that would remotely indicate that I had anything to drink. I was just eating popcorn and talking in a corner. It seemed that the head bouncer had turned to me as an easy target and was abusing his power. Will definitely not be returning to this establishment and am hugely disappointed with what happened.
This place threw me out, for no reason, when I wasn't intoxicated. They've gotten rid of every fun element that they had when I was an undergrad. Don't go here. It's a black hole for your cash.
Great food, good beer, tasty drinks, why aren't you here? Quit reading and get your behind to The Backer! And the bartenders rock! Come on down.
Mixed feelings. A few weeks ago my friend got thrown out for unclear reasons. But we're here right now on the patio and the vibes are ~unreal~. Great people and best BLT in south bend I hear. Get it on rye 🤗
It's great if you're in college and you're not worried about standing shoulder to shoulder, trying to dance, on a floor soaked with spilled beer and probably urine.
By far my favorite bar in this town! The music is more classic oldies and the sense of community is always present. Wish there was better ventilation and restrooms, but is still fun nonetheless
Really crowded but thats expected on a Friday night. Overall had good beer and good music as well.
It's hard to decide whether to give this place no stars for being dirty and tiny or 5 because it's such a unique staple of South Bend.
