    Love it.. staff was very nice and attentive. I would rent…read moreagain. The place was just the right size for my wedding. Check it out you will love it.

    Amvets 103 is a super modern post with tons to offer, everyone is super friendly and seems to know…read moreeach other- Likely because they've been hanging out there for decades. There's a lot to like about Post 103, I just wish it was closer to my house. HOW TO JOIN: Buzz the buzzer, tell the bartender you want to join, and pay $35. If you didn't serve in the military you join the "Sons," but as far as I know everyone gets the same access to the club and the activities there. I haven't experienced anything bad about being in the Sons versus whatever a "full" member is called, they just seem happy to have you and glad you're involved. FOOD AND DRINK: Bottled beer and a full bar, along with tons of options for food. I believe you can always get pizza, but they also have a full dinner menu and tons of specials. They cook their frozen pizzas right at the bar, meaning everyone sitting there can smell it. It's pretty amusing seeing one person get a pizza, and everyone else being like, "Hey that smells pretty good I'll take one too." Their full menu is served Tuesday through Thursday, 5:30 to 8:30. The full menu has typical fried appetizers, burgers, sandwiches, and wraps. On Fridays they do a dinner special which rotates. EVENTS: They do a ton of stuff here, and do a fantastic job keeping their Facebook updated so you always know what's going on. There's always weird stuff to do on the calendar (posted on FB) like spaghetti dinners, DJ's playing, and of course huge parties for local sports and holidays. Oh and they have outdoor bowling as well. GAMBLING: Amvets has a bunch of slot machines, and on Tuesdays they run Lightning, which is sort of like ultra fast-paced bingo where you have a card with three numbers. Lightning has multiple layers to it, which I honestly don't really fully understand, but has something to do with winning a game gives you an option to win bigger/better prizes that roll over week over week? Also, they do Queen of Hearts here, which snowballs into huge pots. Queen of Hearts is on the first Friday of each month, but check the calendar on FB. CLUB FACILITIES: Amvets is HUGE. The main bar area has tons of seats, and we've never had a problem finding a place to sit. They've also got a giant dining room area which gets rented out, we see a lot of quinceaneras and other similar stuff (or what looks like a quinceanera, anyway) along with wedding receptions and more. The bathrooms are weirdly giant as well. They've got a bunch of outdoor seating around their bowling lanes, and there's a huge stocked pond that members can fish in. WHY WE LIKE IT: The bartenders are absurdly friendly, and we're excited to get involved in the fishing this year. They're also one of the only places in town that has fried pickles, the ultimate fried food. They also make it real easy to make sure you're not missing out on anything by being great at Facebookin'.

    Attention!! Hispanic people do not go to this place, I had an event here on Saturday the 26th and I…read morefelt discriminated against and it seemed like they were asking for free, they have little professionalism, personally I had a very bad experience at this place, it is worth noting that I have previously had parties at the VFW in Yorkville, Montgomery and West Chicago and I have never felt like I was at this place. One of my bad experiences was that I paid for it on Friday to be able to decorate and when I got to the place they wouldn't let me in, I wasted 40 minutes waiting to get in, the salon was completely dirty and I wasted another hour waiting for it to be cleaned, the next day there were 10/24 of waters left over that I had paid for, they never told me they had any left over and they came out with the excuse that I couldn't take it because they would lose the license which is stupid because it's water not alcohol, in the end a very kind tattoo man arrived who made up for everything bad from good before and apologized but that's not enough for me and if you are Hispanic please do not use this place for your parties or events

    We hosted a wonderful Celebration of Life here and couldn't be happier. The space is beautiful and…read morewell-kept, and the staff went above and beyond with kindness and support. What makes this venue truly special is its mission to support local veteran, something that really matters to my family and our great community. Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a great affordable rental spot!
