    Great vibe. Classic spot. Usually visit to play casual game when I'm in Chicago. What else do I need to write in this review? Check it out. Unless you don't want to.

    The old man cashier was extremely rude to us. He always disrupted us while we were having fun, with unnecessary reasons. Horrible experience

    Best spot in town, been going here since forever. Just mind your business and be courteous to the lady up front and you're good.

    I came here Saturday night after a show with a bunch of cast members for the karaoke. I never knew…read morethis place existed, but it was a good time. Notable things: Bonus points for a having a free parking lot (and easy street parking) It's cash only Good vibes. Very eclectic mix of people (especially because it was weekend before Halloween so the costumes were entertaining). A+ for never feeling creeped out by any of the patrons. They were all very supportive of people singing and gave us tips about how to search for songs on the app if we wanted to do that instead of look through the book. The karaoke seems to be first come first served, so we got there a little after 10 and no one from our group sang until 2am (from what I heard the next day. I tapped out at 1:30am). The same handful of people kept singing every few songs, so they must have all gotten there early and put in like 20 songs each. There were also a lot of repeats (I heard "What's Up?" by 4NB 4 times in the first hour I was there). It would be nice if the KJ bumped newer people up sooner before circling back to people who had already sung like 7 times, and if they pushed back song repeats, but in the end we're all just there for a good time and everyone sings along to everything, so it's fine. They card everyone and do scrutinize closely, which is good. One younger-looking girl in our group had to pull back her hair to prove it was her in her photo because her license photo had her hair slicked back. Food was decent. I didn't drink anything but the people I was with seemed happy with their drinks/they kept ordering more. They have video slots. One person in our group won $60 and one person lost $10 in 30 seconds, so it's hit or miss lol. I didn't go to the bathroom while I was there so I can't speak to cleanliness that other reviewers have mentioned. They're open to 4am, which is awesome. I tapped out at 1:30 because I'm old now, but if I was in my 20s I'd love the 4am thing. I'd go back with a group again.

    Free karaoke bar! Tip - there are many song choices beyond the book. Better to ask the KJ for your…read morespecific song choice. It's fun but it's definitely a dive bar. There's 2 stalls in the women's room and I question if the walls have ever been cleaned. They do private parties which is kind of neat. Our group started at 7pm and then the bar opened to the public at 9pm.
