Had cheap drinks at this bar in Elgin. It seems like a good place to watch games. The Dive Bar…read morecertainly has an appropriate name. Actually it's better than it sounds because it's clean. There's fun things including a pool table. Even with the name of it we still think it's a pretty cool bar. It's one of the few not fancy looking places in this part of the city. There's a few parts of it with their own atmosphere and gatherings. Basically it has a couple entrances. One is where they have the pool table. It's about $5 to get a basic cocktail. We got something with whiskey. Main bar area is in the middle. The other entrance goes to another seating area full of tables. Here is where to go if not sitting at the bar. They sometimes have events such as live music. Good bar that's better than many think it would be. It's located on Highland at Grove. They're open late including both weekdays and weekends.

They have a burger of the month that are always fun to try and Wednesday's is 2 burgers for $12. I had the Stumps burger (Stumps spicy green olives, cheese and bacon) divine! My husband likes the classic burger the best but he's kinda boring and doesn't venture far from his normal. Lol While the place itself isn't anything fancy, it is a bar, it is clean. The staff is always friendly and kudos to the cook because he makes the best dang burgers ever!

Best bar in DeKalb County! This is me and my friend's favorite bar to go to. Great service and fun,…read morefriendly crowd

Ah, good old Cub and Spanks…read more.. Now I've only been coming here for the past couple of months, but they fulfill a couple of requirements I require in a bar. 1) cheap drinks. And I don't mean this place is the kind of establishment that serves drinks in red solo cups, they serve them in regular plastic tumbler cups, and they're not bottom shelf garbage liquids either. A Jameson and Ginger ale will set you back a whopping $4. I feel like I'm stealing from the bar when I drink here! This is a good thing. 2) conversational level of crowd noise. This place has never been so loud that I couldn't hear the person I was sitting with, granted, we haven't come here on a Friday or Saturday night, so consider that the asterisk. I prefer a place where u don't need a bullhorn to talk to someone 3 feet away. 3) shuffleboard table. This place will always have a special place in my heart since I popped my shuffleboard cherry here on September 30th after closing out Charter Fitness. However, they've since replaced the old board with a new-fangled board with the prison bars that come up in the middle to avoid free plays, and the table is but crooked. Not that I'm a cheapskate and try to play for free, but the sand gets stuck in the holes so when you start a game, you have to manually push the bars in in order to allow your pucks to slide freely from end to end. I know, I know, #firstworldproblems 3) jukebox. Since the beginning if time, man has attempted to push forth their culture on those around them, and this is the perfect way to do it. You can even control the jukebox from your phone! Well, your smartphone at least. I don't think your Motorola StarTAC is going to help you out here, nor will your Nokia 8200. 4) regulars. You will see the same people day in day out here, whatever day of the week. They may or may not remember that you had a conversation about whatever you had a conversation about, but they're friendly. Or you can chalk it up to this place being a townie bar, but I won't call it that. Come to Cubbies, sidle up to the bar, and maybe drop a buck on a game of shuffleboard or two. If I'm there, say hello and challenge me to a game. I might show you a thing or two. Or not. I've only been playing for a couple if months...

Not the kind of place to write home about... but I like it…read more Simple with a simple menu. The food is good not spectacular. The prices are in line with the type of place it is. Generous pours. Small variety of beer on tap. Good music (to me) medium to light rock. If I don't like you I won't review you.

I went to celebrate my birthday there. Little after 3pm on 3/31/25. I had such the worst service…read more The lady didn't pay attention to my husband and I when we let her know respectfully said we were ready to order. Because she was just continue to talk to her regularly customer which you can clearly see. As she started to make our drink she stopped in the middle of it to get another drink for the man she kept talking to. Which clearly was her friend. She even put in the wrong hamburger order in after bringing mine out. So my husband had to wait longer as I waited to eat. The drink was terrible. And try to enjoy my birthday meal and drink it was just bad. I still try to stay positive. So I order a different drink thinking it would be better. She took her a little bit to get her attention again. Their were only her two friend and 3 other people. I was so upset to have a terrible birthday experience. I still left a tip bcz that's what I do which I shouldn't have and am mad at myself I did. I just didn't know how to give it back and her see I didn't leave somthing. But I will tell everyone I know not to go there at all and just how horrible my birthday experience was. I TRUELY will never go there again. The bar lady had terrible service and just made me feel that our presence their was in her way of focus on her conversation with the man and women she was talking to the whole time. Am pissed that I picked there to have my special birthday and just to experience such terrible service and drink. We spent $65 there. It was Just Bad Bad And I do mean Bad all the way around. What a Happy Terrible Birthday time. TRUELY upset. If I could give a "0" score I would.

Checked out this local hangout in Gilberts. Drift Inn happens to be one of several bars around…read morehere. It may look like a crappy dive bar from the outside. Good thing to know it's also like that inside. The main thing is the cheap booze, along with the occasional live music. Basic looking locally owned bar. It's almost like pulling into someone's driveway, with the gravel parking lot and the garage behind it. The bar doesn't look like it has much room inside, but it's bigger than it looks. A lot of basic beers mostly in bottles and cans. Of course there's a few craft beers like Goose Island. It's about $6 for a basic cocktail. Whiskey with whatever. As far as food, nothing really to be honest. It's got $1 bags of nuts. Also you can even buy cigarettes. There's also candy, gum, and that kind of stuff. Has a pretty chill atmosphere. It's mostly just a few locals in here. The place gets more fun on weekends.

Perfect dive bar for an autumn night!

We nestled in to play a few games of pool and ended up playing with some locals and also the owner by the end of the night. We will absolutely be back to this joint. They have a massive outdoor area with a giant fire pit and crazy amount of seating. This place is very popular with snowmobilers as it is on the snowmobile route and bikers frequent this place often.
