Divey Whiting bar... When I'm hanging out with my uncle…read moreLouie we usually swing by here since he lives a stones throw away. All in all it's your typical neighborhood bar, darts and a pool table, cheap beers and some snacks. There are 2 entrances one door on the East side of the building and the main door in front. Either one is open but I prefer going through the front because there's a table right next to the side door... wouldn't want to hit someone with the door you know. It's not the cleanest place, sticky tables and floors, let's not talk about the men's room... cleaning that would be a Mike Rowe worthy task. Staff is pretty friendly though when it gets busy they tend to forget about the tables a little and the far ends of the bar, just FYI. A friendly gesture such as a quick wave or a raised shake of an empty glass or bottle will bring 'em back to you, no muss no fuss. Since the previous review mentioned gangbangers and fights, I'll mention that in the few times we've been here it's been pretty chill. No gangbangers, no fights. Things have changed since 2005 it seems. Decent place, worth a looksee...

Basically walked in and out. It smelled terrible as soon as we walked in…read more The bartender told us kitchen was closed on a Saturday afternoon. On day of visit they only offered 2 of their beers on draft. We walked out without ordering anything. Disappointing as we made a detour here on our way home from the beach.

Stopped in on a Saturday afternoon with a few coworkers. We were the only people in the place,…read morewhich should've been the first red flag. They had four beers listed, all niche styles that wouldn't appeal to most were 86'd, so basically, a brewery with two beer. The menu was small, generic bar food with zero creativity, and even then, four items weren't available. No real options, so we went with burgers and their so-called cheese curds. The burgers were way overcooked and dry, barely seasoned (just pepper), and honestly hard to eat. The "cheese curds" were just cubes of cheddar cut from a block. Not even trying. Service was a 3/10 at best. Feels like they'll be out of business soon. Won't be back.

Dusty's is a hidden gem. I love restaurants that you're a little unsure driving by if you should…read morego in, but when you sit down you know you are in the right place. First thing to remember, it's a bar (w/ good food). No credit cards. I've never looked to at a menu (I'm not even sure there is a menu???) I've only looked at the "specials" on the table. . . .Walleye, Lake Perch, Frog Legs, etc. The fish is served with "appetizers". . .rolls, cottage cheese, beets, coleslaw, kidney bean salad. Those who grew up going to Phil Smidt's or Teibels will know the style. . . .it's a bar fare version of Phil's. My favorite is the Lake Perch w/ drawn butter. It's reasonably priced and friendly service. I'm pretty sure every time we've been there it's the same people working and eating/drinking. Get there early on a Friday because the local Firemen always eat up all the specials early . . we are talking 6pm or earlier!!!

Willow's Golden Pub. New owners, new vibe. Look man, they have a dog in the bar. For me, that is…read moreenough reason to go to this bar, if you are allergic you probably know already this isn't the bar for you. If you don't like dogs, you are probably fine. Willow is kind of shy for a golden retriever and won't come up to new people without a little encouragement. Pros: There is a dog in the bar. The staff was cool. Willow's moms were cool. Drinks were good. Cons: Could have more beer on tap. They just opened, I get it. But eventually...

This used to be the go-to local bar to blow off steam after a tough day at work. The clientele is…read morecomprised of a really cool mix of local south- siders (read: White Sox fans!) and UChicago staff/students. There is an epic wall mural that features different aspects of the city, including a huge Barack Obama head. As I said: epic. The bar is separated into two distinct parts, divided by a counter/tables in the center (you have to walk all the way around if you want to switch sides or move at the tables). On one side is the bar and a few TVs to watch the games, giving it a louder sports bar kind of vibe. On the other side there are a bunch of tables--almost like picnic tables. It feels very communal and laid-back. It's a place you can sip on drinks and easily spend time with a group of friends. The Cove is very group-friendly. My favorite part? My friend brings his dog there and it's no problem. Is this bar a dive? Yes. Do I care? No. Do I actually love it? Absolutely. Best bar on the area, hands down.

They had…read morevery very good hot wings in my expert opinion, the sauce was perfect and they were pretty crispy just like I like. I did also order fish tacos for my wife which she enjoyed and some mozzarella sticks too which were subpar to be honest but I still ate them haha. When you walk in you see a pretty long spacious bar area, and the dining space which was a good size for the building size. I am a big TVs to watch at the bar guy and they didn't have very many in there, I have a better set up in my basement. The bartender was quick and attentive while I waited for my order, that was a plus. A down side is the parking lot area isn't very organized and will have you parking in the neighborhood. As a whole Small World Inn Bar and Grill is a nice spot for some good eats and I assume some good drinks. I definitely will be back to get wings!!! Check them out when you are in the area. Rodney Out!!
