    This is one of my favorite little bars in central Illinois. I love to stop by when passing through each January.

    Pub II - Waited an hour and a half for this. Unbelievable service.

    For sure this isn't a great place in Normal, but it's one of the most popular bars. It certainly…read moregets a lot of ISU students and family. Pub II is a good place for watching games or any sports. Has good specials on drinks. The food is pretty average as expected. A pretty crowded place and last time here it was crazy. It's got plenty of room inside but there's mostly empty space in the middle. This is so there's a place for dancing, twerking, or whatever. Afternoons are less hectic but still busy. This is where to watch football on weekends. Even so, we were able to get seats at the bar. It's about $6 for Jameson. Good price to be honest. The food isn't anything special. Especially limited in healthy options. It's about $9 for the Jumbo Bavarian Pretzel. Big ass one good to share among a few. This comes with beer cheese and honey mustard. This is good with regular mustard too. Other food options include greasy burgers. This is more of a place to drink than to eat to be honest. Campus bar that has some good prices on beers and food. It's open late. This is also close to the Amtrak station.

    Great sports bar here plenty of TV 4 projectors playing the big game. Big place to hang out and…read morefind a spot to watch. Drinks are strong at a nice price. They do have an outdoor area with its on bar as well. Haven't tried the food here but it smelt and looked good. Staff was also nice as well, definitely a great place to come for drinks food and to watch ur favorite sporting event.

    We had a group of 14 people that chose Doherty's on a recommendation. We arrived at the restaurant…read moreand were shocked to find out they had arranged a table for all of us in a back room. Our server was Austin. Austin was incredible. He handled all of us with great knowledge and enthusiasm. He had answers about every menu item that we asked about. He took group photos of us and had coozies for all of us. He could not have been more entertaining and a great ambassador for the restaurant. All of our group would highly recommend Doherty's! Make sure you ask for Austin 3:16 as your waiter!

    Checked out this Irish pub in Decatur that's more typical of the local bars. It certainly isn't…read morefancy but it's not all bad though. Doherty's is known for its cheap drinks, food, and games. For sure it's even cheap for around here. There's a few locals always at the bar it seems. After many of the other places around here have closed, it was a later night option for us to get drinks and a bite. It was pretty quiet inside. This place isn't a wild hangout most times. It has a pretty simple menu. There's the most basic stuff. It's about $5 for the cheapest Irish whiskey, not bad. The food can be even cheaper if you can believe it. Fries are $3, and these are about the healthiest food here you can get. The rest of the food mostly is meats. Good place to get something cheap. It may not always be good food, in fact it usually isn't, but most people just come for the drinks so they don't really care too much about any of the food. They also have games including arcades and slots for those looking for entertainment and things.
