I have been wanting to try this distillery ever since I saw a segment on them on one of the local…read moreTV stations. We stopped in on a Saturday afternoon around lunch time. They have a few parking spaces in the front of the building with a larger lot in the rear. It was not too crowded and we were seated immediately. Our server Michaela was very friendly and suggested a few food items for my wife which were GF. I started with the House Old Fashion and my wife had the Bee's Knees. Both were very good and cost 10.00 each. For lunch I tried their Pecan Whiskey BBQ wings. 5 wings cost 10.00. They were good size and very tasty but I didn't taste any of the Pecan Whiskey flavor. My wife had the Barbacoa Tacos which were filled with braised beef. She could only eat 2 of them so I had the third taco. Flavorful but I would have preferred more salsa or a dipping sauce. I wanted to try their Drop Dead Bourbon separately so I had a small tasting. I loved it so much I bought a bottle to bring home. Cost was 60.00. The history of this distillery dates back to 1857 and is one of Illinois' oldest standing distillerys and was once Al Capones largest bootlegging facility during prohibition. I would love to go back and try a few more of their hand crafted cocktails and one of their signature burgers.

Our server and hostess were friendly and helpful. There is only a few spots to park in the front but a big parking lot in the back marked with a sign. It was lunchtime so we ordered wings and beef barbacoa tacos and both were very flavorful. The server suggested the tacos as they can be made gluten free. Besides the cocktails my husband asked to taste their straight bourbon called Dead Drop. He enjoyed it and bought a bottle to take home. I could feel the ghosts of bootleggers of the past haunting the place. Worth the drive to experience it.

I've been to B'z for Taco Tuesday and Karaoke Night a few times now. Here are the highs and lows…read more Highs: * The shrimp tacos are EVERYTHING! I got mine on flour tortillas and I could tell the tortillas were treated on the grill before the tacos were assembled. That definitely made a difference. My best friend had the jerk shrimp tacos on corn tortillas, and she enjoyed them as well. The best part? Tacos are $5 on Taco Tuesday! * The catfish was GREAT! It was crispy, juicy, tender, and perfectly flaky. It came in a meal deal with 2 chicken wings for only $3.99! * Happy hour includes $5 pours of tequila and cognac. You also get 2 shooters for $5. * If you're with a good group, karaoke night can be very fun...just don't have any expectations of the crowd actually listening to you. Lows: * The chicken wings were under-cooked. The staff graciously took them back and recooked them for us, but by that time, we were over it. But I will say most folks were enjoying them. * You're out of luck during happy hour if you don't drink Henny or Jose Cuervo. I wish they'd at least add a whiskey. * Service is AWFUL! And no that's not an exaggeration. While all the staff is nice and friendly, there's only 1 bartender and 1 server the majority of the time, and the place is typically packed. When we order drinks, we make sure to order double because it will take 30mins+ to get your next round. The price point is great, but you have to wonder at what cost? I enjoy the place, but I'm unfortunately not rushing to get back (and I wish I were). #ImNotAFoodie  #ImJustAGirlWhoLovesFood

Blue Island has a law that if you visit town you have to come here. I'm not serious, but maybe it…read moreshould be one. Natural Law is one of the better bars I would say, after checking out a few others in town. Has some very good drinks. The food not so much but it's edible mostly. Came in with my female friend. It always seems to have specials going on. We got the 10 ounce frozen machine drinks special. It's $5 every day. The one we got was the Malibu Berry, good stuff. It hardly tasted like there was alcohol. There was. As for food there's not much good. There's mostly typical greasy bar stuff. We had the Fry Basket. It's $3 so it's shit ass cheap. These weren't so terrible to be honest. Follow the saying of "you get what you pay for." In this case pay little and get something fairly okay. This place isn't like it's anything special but it will do if needing to get blitzed or if you're just watching people blitzing in a football game or whatever.

I've never been but I'm always looking for a new spot to try. Seemed like a pretty chill spot in Harvey. However, upon arrival on October 30th 2020 at approximately 9:45pm I went to turn into the parking lot but was immediately stopped buy the dude patrolling the lot. "Keep Moving, nigga I don't know you" He shouted. I was shocked and so was the person I was dropping off at his rude behavior. I then said I'm sorry first time here, I just want to know where can I drop off since you're blocking me from the parking lot. He again said I don't know you, you should've said that..but he still didn't let me in to drop off. So the young lady had to get out of the car at the curb and walk across the parking lot to enter. I then said.. you know I've never been here..but after that experience I told him I never will.. she said I would go back home if I wasn't meeting friends here. I come in contact with over 100 travelers a week. I love recommending nice places. Well, this won't be one of them. To top it off, when I said I wouldn't go because of his behavior..He said good. Mind you, I've never been here nor have I ever met this over zealous parking lot guy. Well he just cost you a potential customer not to mention I'll never recommend this place to anyone. Good experience people tell a few friends...bad experience people tell hundreds. Yall may wanna teach yo parking lot solider about how to teach those coming to spend money there. I dunno if he was just having a bad day, piss off about being outside in the cold or what. But with Harvey being a struggling village, this guy isn't helping the situation. I wouldn't go to this establishment...if I could give it no stars I would.

This truly is a neighborhood bar like you might remember from your childhood or that you may only see now in older movies or tv shows set in the 70s or 80s. Everybody knows everybody else. They laugh with each other, get annoyed with the guy who is there a little too long every day (but also love him), and just enjoy leaving their cares outside and being with each other. In that way, as well as the group outings they do and the nondescript exterior, this really is an old time tavern. But, in some ways, that name misses something. The old time may be in the vibe or the original floors or ceilings, but there's something fresh here, from the surprisingly great selection of drinks (at half the price or less of the places up here on the north side), to the way this neighborhood staple has been ushered into the 21st century by its newer owners. We stuck out like a sore thumb but were made to feel at home within 30 seconds. You could feel the family vibe, and it immediately made you wish you had something similar in your neighborhood. And, maybe you can't - there's something that can only come from a bunch of people who have lived in the same corner of the world for decades convening in one spot. I don't know, it was kind of beautiful. Not everyone there has the same views on life, the same income, or the same goals. Some are old timers reveling in their glory days, some are middle aged parents, and some of twenty somethings trying to live their best lives. It didn't matter - it was like one big family reunion. Again, the bartender was incredible, talking to us, answering questions, filling us in on the neighborhood and giving us some tips. There are bars we've been going to in this city for seven years where they may know our names, but where we've never been treated with such kindness and welcoming. I don't know how often we'll get down to Hegewish, which sort of reminded me of the old port neighborhood of Baltimore, Canton. But, I'll tell you what; if we're ever even remotely close, we're going to pop in here. Maybe even make an afternoon of it alongside skipping over to Hammond, IN. Go in and (temporarily) be a part of the family. If you're just looking for a nice place to have a drink, watch a game, listen to some music, and have fun conversation with some locals, you'd be hard pressed to find a better place to do it.
