The environment and atmosphere here is a pretty traditional American Irish pub. Very enjoyable and welcoming people, customers and staff. The drinks are generally the classics and spins on the classics. Mules, sours, martinis. They have been here for 90+ years for a reason. They rival big city pubs in all aspects. P.S. If you are looking for what to order just get the wings, top 3 wings I've ever had.

The cheese curds were oil soaked and not fried properly. Most had no or little cheese in them again from improper frying. The crab dip was powerful fishy and the toast rounds were butter soaked... again more grease. My chicken dumpling soup was luke warm and any food served, especially a cream soup, cant be safely served not piping hot. The sourdough grilled toast with it was... again soaked in butter and thus inedible. Husband's chili was off tasting and again not piping hot. His sourdough was also swimming in butter. Super disappointing and won't bother to return again.

Located directly across the street from the downtown Rock Island Holiday Inn, it's a easy stumble to the front desk and so much cheaper and authentic than the hotel bar. My first visit was late afternoon for a beverage after arriving in town. The bartender Tammy and owner Jeff were awesome with making me feel welcome and giving advice for dinner and attractions. My second visit was later that evening after Ubering back from across the river from a concert. A different bartender, but equally as talented in customer service skills ( I wish I could remember her name). A packed house with a mix of locals and people staying at the hotel - which mainly caters to traveling workers for the railroad. A perfectly cluttered and dingy dive bar that's been around many decades with prices that can't be beat. I would most definitely be a regular if I lived there.
