Just happened to catch this place going by on the bus and turned out better than it seemed like it was luckily. The drinks are pretty cheap, and there's a pool table. A place like this is becoming rarer with the cheap drinks. It's about $6 for some of the stronger stuff. They have one of those chilled Jagger things. Always a welcome sight in a dive bar. Plenty of cheap beers in bottles and cans, as well as plenty of the hard stuff. Has some entertainment. They're popular for darts, and you can play pool. Kind of cramped in here and hard to move around. This is even worse when it's a busy time like when there's a game. Have some good and cheap drinks. It has some cheap ass beer or some cheap strong cocktails if you prefer. There's also patrons who like it for playing darts, the pool table, and whatever.

Nice small cash-only neighborhood bar, bartenders always introduced themselves to you off the bat, many nights sitting around with a group of people of varying ages and jobs, all taking turns buying each other rounds- I stop by when I visit Chicago every few years and always a nice spot. People say if you are new the regulars stop and stare, not sure how valid that is but I spent age 30-31 there and now stop by in my early 40's so I don't care, and I have run into a few regulars who remembered me after a few minutes of chat. Clean and safe spot with great service and awesome owner/owners

The establishment actually has two entrances, though the place would not seem large enough to have two of them. There is one teddy bear in the house (otherwise it might be called "Teddy Bears" ?). Our server was kind, and she mentioned right away that they were a cash only bar. We had some beers, watched some bad baseball on TV, and listened to an eclectic selection of music during our Saturday afternoon visit. The framed photos of Chicago sports venues remind you that this is a sports bar.

I would love to come back one day.
