    To Go order…read more Hostess was efficient. Kitchen was efficient. Not too loud. High tops, low table and a bar. Chicken sandwich is okay.

    Beers are plentiful in this action packed bar and grill in Champaign. It also has pretty okay food…read morebut people really aren't coming here for it. Aspen Tap House is a great place for watching any games. Has tons of TVs around and there's a party atmosphere usually going on. The prices are okay for portions. A location away from the campus craziness but it still can get loud. It's close to a few hotels, so it's a great place for travelers. The menu has about what one should expect, with shit tons of beers and many of these are local as well. Got a few good ones. It's about $7 a pint. Best we had of these was the White Oak Brewery selection #CharmingAF. This was refreshing and smooth. It's about $12 for the cheapest burgers. We each got the Black Bean Burger, which comes with guacamole, pico de gallo, and sour cream but I left off the last one. Also gets a choice of a side, so okay value for it. I got it with a salad. A lot of other meaty options available. They have tacos and the Impossible meat is an option. For sure it pretty much seems like Applebee's or some generic polished sports bar and grill but it's okay to be honest. It's located on Neil Street to the south of the campus stuff. There's meaty things as well as options for vegans and vegetarians.

    Found the location of this small chain of pour it yourself beers in Champaign. It has a few other…read morelocations in college towns in the state. Pour Bros is a great way to get a sample of beers from around here and worldwide. Get as little or as much as you would like to get. The price varies. Coming here a few times it's like there's always something else you can get. It's got shit tons of beers along the wall you can fill up on your own. The first thing is to get a card so you can activate taps. Every beer is at a price. It's per ounce and it adds up. Best one we got of these was the Wake Brewery selection Frost Hammer. It's $0.80 an ounce, which is one of the more expensive ones. Can bring food in here. They also have free popcorn. Have to know there's no special events before going or you will have to pay a cover. It's located on University at Market. There's not really any food but you can bring in stuff.

    Just in town visiting. Not familiar with their process of serving yourself and tracking what you…read morepour. I had questions. Each question was answered with contempt and condescension. Female bartender was very rude and even more rude when we returned after dinner. She actually approached our table to continue antagonizing us. She should not be employed in customer service. Won't be back. Don't recommend. Enjoyed the "Self-Pour" concept.
