People worked hard to brew beer and created a place for people to gather. Hospitality - From comedy & music, these folks want people to come and enjoy themselves. Commitment - this has been a decade of work. People have committed themselves to creating a Public House where people can be with their friends and have fun. It has not been roses for the owners. Blue Island - help them purchase their space or charge them rent that allows them to operate. Losing this place would go against common decency & common sense. Who's with me? I've got the first round.

Also has more than a few drinks. The food offerings are basic and greasy. Basic looking place in one of the unfortunate suburbs around. It's a great fit for the area at least. The inside of it is quite small and is always crowded no matter whenever. Has a list of drink specials that are daily. It's always $5 to get a pint of Bud Light or a shot of whiskey. As for the food it's the usual fried and meaty. It's about $7 to get things like burgers, sandwiches, or whatever. Again the menu is mostly meaty. They have chips and popcorn. For sure it's not a high class establishment. It's open late. They have lots of games such as slots.

Depending on the bartender, this place can be a really fun time. Many go there for their partially…read moreenclosed outdoor patio (smoking allowed) which has high tables and bags to play. Some days the bar itself can get impossibly crowded as a lot of people go here in large groups. They have great lunch specials and cheap beer specials too. Beer options are standard, mostly domestic bottles and cans with only a few craft options like Founders All Day IPA and 1-4 from Blue Island Beer Company. There's just a few taps, maybe 4 total? The best things for me are probably the grill behind the bar where all the food is cooked to order by your bartender, as well as all the cool events that their owner organizes. He's super involved in the community which is awesome! There's local bean bag tournaments, meat auctions, put put golf tournaments, and roast beef events. It's all super fun. Definitely worth checking out for a cheap burger and beer special. Cheers!
