My mind thinks back to years ago when I had a less than spectacular experience. But we decided to give it another shot. Beers were cheap as advertised, and service was immediate. It's still a dive bar by all sense of the word, but the clientele were friendly and staff was kind. This is definitely a sweatpants friendly, no frills establishment! If you have your expectations realistic, knowing this is a dive bar primarily for cheap drinking (not dining), you will be fine. Street parking but there's lots of it.

We live right up the street from this place and watched it's transition from old dive bar to its…read morecurrent Foolish incarnation. It took them over a year to renovate it and they still aren't done in the back and the parking lot is a little rutted but the inside is very nicely done. There is a huge bar and some high and low tables scattered throughout. The clientele is mostly locals and lot of laborers grabbing a drink and a bite to eat after working hard all day which was great to see. It's super casual and very open inside. We had a few beers and the bartender was good. She was attentive and was waiting on 20 folks at the bar as well as table drinks. The manager was able to help serve some food to help her out but never once asked us how everything was. That was a little bit of a missed opportunity in my opinion for a new business. We ordered a breakfast burger that came with some hashbrowns on the side. I assumed, which is my fault totally, that the burger would come with lettuce, tomato, etc. but it truly was JUST a burger, egg, and cheese and absolutely no other toppings. That was disappointing and I really wish the bartender would have asked if I wanted anything on it. I ended up using ketchup for moisture since she was so busy and I was hungry. :) The hashbrowns were frozen and fried so they were nothing special. I think this place has tremendous potential. We'll be back to try something else. It seems busy so that's a good sign.

What a really good surprise! A little neighborhood bar that was recently given a totally new…read morefacelift and looks super inside. Great sports watching venue, with wall to wall TV screens all over. Clean, shiny, and with some fun sports games too (i. e. golf video, darts, etc). The menu offers lots of ol local favorites and some with a nice twist (i. e. pulled pork sandwiches, flatbread pizzas, salads, Chipped ham Sammy, etc). Had the Isleys chipped ham sandwich which they serve warm with melted cheddar, grilled onions on a bun. However, they were gracious enough to make it for me cold, with Mayonnaise and a slice of cheese. This is unlike another place down the road (RI) from them that wouldn't adjust items on a sandwich for me last week. The waiter/bartender was super chill too, easy to talk to and basically good at his job. Our refills came quickly and without asking. He followed up to see what we wanted a couple times and the food arrived in a reasonable time (not much waiting at all). This was so very different from that same day where at our usually spot (another old bar/restaurant further down the road, "SJ") we had to walk out just after ordering lunch due to getting attitude from a mouthy waitress. Glad we decided to try this new spot! Great job! I think we found our new local "go to" bar/restaurant. Looking forward to it and to soon trying breakfast there on weekends too. A must try f you haven't been there yet.

On my more recent trip, the service was terrible and the food was delicious but overpriced for what we were served. I think the bartender had friends there the night we visited because she talked to another couple sitting next to us at the bar and largely ignored us except when we flagged her down. We ordered the vegan drumsticks, and were surprised to only get three--they were not very big but one of the most expensive appetizers on the menu. They were really good but I won't pay that much to get them a second time. We were going to order an entree, but it took so long to get the server's attention that we asked for our check and went somewhere else for dinner instead. Then I noticed a discrepancy between the beer price showing on their beer list and what we were charged. I tried to tell another person behind the bar about it and, as it turned out, he was the bar manager and said he doesn't deal with checks and we'd have to talk to the server about it. So rude, especially after we had been neglected by the other server for most of the night.

I asked for an amaretto sour and they had to check to see if they had amaretto (they do!) which I found funny. It can get pretty crowded and it's not super big so come early if you want to make sure to get a table!

Reasonably priced for everything. Cold beer, great wings- I was surprised that the food was actually really good!! Removed 1 star because it was insanely loud and people around us had zero spatial awareness. It was a group of both women & men and there was probably about 12 of them. 1/3 of the place was empty but they decided to sit right next to me and my fiancé, half of them stood around and didn't even sit. Yelled, talked, and hooted and hollerd full volume, then proceeded to put some of their dirty cups and glassware on our table!!!! Horrible and gross manners We ended up getting up from our table and moving so that helped. So be cautious you may have to do the same if you're coming in to eat/have a casual drink

At one point in the night he got angry and screamed at a guy who asked for a drink - for interrupting his attempt to hit on one of the other patrons, a woman who looked scared and was clearly not feeling the bartender's untoward expressions of lust. Actual event I went there for wasn't horrible, but was very crowded with limited table/seating real estate leaving attendees to stand around awkwardly. Main advantage is the cheap drinks, but this is very much a South Side bar with all the baggage that entails. Might like it better on another, future visit.

Nothing in your wildest dreams, could be more messed up than this. They even sell Manboy bobbleheads. Did you notice I called him a "little person"? That's because I'm a sensitive person. The rest of the peeps in here for "midget madness" are not. Hey, I'm only a foot taller and I gots some T Rex arms and the last thing I want to do for employment is shove a nozzle of jager down some screaming frat boys throat and pretend to enjoy that sh**. To be honest, judging by the look on his face I think he might want to go postal and torch the place. I could only tolerate this place for one drink. I'll give them kudos for the impressive drafts on tap, a diverse tequila selection, but I had to run out of there before they got the idea I could be "Womengirl" behind the bar.
