on a hot 80 degree March day riding on my motorcycle I come across a little dive bar. on U.S. route…read more6 I have seen it since I was a youngin yet I had never stopped in, well today I had a few minutes to kill and so I stopped in for a cold one. Despite the Name on the sign "Kenny's Tap" They do not have anything on tap, and all the bottles behind the bar well they are not available either he just collects them :-/ needless to say we are not off to a good start so I ask for a bud light bottle and pronto there it is my thirst is quenched!!!! My initial reaction aside the bar has nostalgia and is well kept the owner was very nice and out going. I chatted with him a bit about he bar and went on my merry way. All in all not a bad place but if you want to order and off the wall beer you are not going to find it here, I would swing by again for a quick one but I do not see it on my regular rotation.

When you walk in you can smell the food cooking. Especially if they are making sausage sandwiches…read more And damn they are good. Sundays they have build your own bloody bar where you are provided a generous half glass of vodka and ice to start your creation. The only thing I would have liked to see were some pickled mushrooms, but they had a couple kinds of olives, asparagus,okra and pickles so I was happy anyway. Also some horseradish to spice it up. Your mixer was a spicy Clamato and it was delish. Also got a HUGE order of pepper jack cubes and I don't know what kind of magical breading is on them but they stayed warm for a long time , making it so nice to munch on them dipped in ranch. The photo is showing HALF of them gone. I mean WOW !! All in all we will totally be back. Missed breakfast by a few minutes but if it is half as good as it looked cooking in front of us and how it smelled we will be in for a treat. Prices are great as well. Is it a divey bar? Yep. But those are the best !!!

The owner made sure to take time during quarantine to make updates to the bar and the bathrooms, he even added a patio! The staff cleans every night so this place is always in good condition. The prices are exceptional. You're guaranteed to have a great time here. Also, they have a private room upstairs for parties that you can request a bartender for. I've seen graduation parties, birthday parties, baby/bridal showers, and so much more hosted.

Tin Roof is one of those unassuming places that most people just pass up. For sure it's not fancy. You might be able to catch live music. Cheap and rustic is an accurate way to talk about this bar. It's located outside a small town on the way to Starved Rock. The inside is bigger than it looks and apparently is a great place to listen to local bands or whoever. However most come to get boozed up and complain. It's about $5 for a basic mixer. Whiskey and whatever. Food is also pretty basic. Mostly fried things. It's about $5 to get a basket of Pretzel Bites. These are great to munch on between sips. Food menu is pretty uninteresting to be honest. There's also other fried things like jalapeño poppers and mini tacos. Got a few cheap cocktails and okay munchies out of it. It's located on Route 34 a bit west of Somonauk. The food here actually is shitty but whatever.

The vibe on a Friday or Saturday night is high energy, happening, and buzzing with lots of the friendly locals of the Joliet area. All of the bartenders are amazingly FUN, FRIENDLY, and quite TALENTED. Especially my main go to bartender named "Danny". Everyone loves Danny, he's the best and the nicest guy ever. Come for the music played via "YouTube" music videos played on a big flat screen TV by request of the customers, the AMAZING HANDMADE CRAFT COCKTAILS, GREAT CRAFTY FOOD DISHES, and the overall ambiance of a1920's speakeasy yet situated in somewhat modern times.

They also hold some events and I saw a table that said they had a Bloody Mary bar, but it wasn't going on the day we went. We ordered a meatball sub, bone-in wings, boneless wings, and fries/onion rings to try. We told the server to bring the food out as it was ready. We waited a long while for our first item to come out and it was the bone-in wings surprisingly, then the boneless wings, and finally the meatball sub. The wings were great and I enjoyed the onion rings as well! The meatball sub was cold and did not taste the best. If I come again, I would just come for the wings and a few drinks. Our server was very friendly and attentive. The bartender and guests at the bar were laughing and having a good time. If you're from out of town, it's also worth mentioning the good that the owner does... outside of having this restaurant. He holds food pantries for the locals no questions asked. When we were going through government shutdown last year, he also partnered with Jewel Osco to give away Turkey dinner kits so family's could have a Thanksgiving. If all else, that's one heck of a reason to give your business here.

There's fun things including a pool table. Even with the name of it we still think it's a pretty cool bar. It's one of the few not fancy looking places in this part of the city. There's a few parts of it with their own atmosphere and gatherings. Basically it has a couple entrances. One is where they have the pool table. It's about $5 to get a basic cocktail. We got something with whiskey. Main bar area is in the middle. The other entrance goes to another seating area full of tables. Here is where to go if not sitting at the bar. They sometimes have events such as live music. Good bar that's better than many think it would be. It's located on Highland at Grove. They're open late including both weekdays and weekends.
