This is a great venue for artists (although you have to do a lot of your own publicity to bring in an audience, and it's pass the tip jar, so a bit of a risk). Nice artist green room downstairs.

Great bartenders and they also have wine, mixed drinks, non alcoholic etc. Bring your own food! They have good quality merch, hats, shirts, hoodies.

To describe the drinks would be impossible, but they constantly rotate craft cocktails that are still hand mixed and bartender inspired. The joy of this place are the bartenders which are outstanding. Some of the best in Champaign. They've recently expanded their snack menu and that makes it even better! They have a pretty extensive beer and wine menu, but cocktails are where they're at. Stop on by!

She was super helpful in getting us what style of drinks were on the menu and mentioned the seasonal drinks so my sister ordered one and I had the green street tea whisky one. It's there local drink because of the whisky being fr here. We had fries as appetizers. They were so fresh and good. The ambience is chill and the lights are welcoming and the vibes is awesome.

We definitely regretted not getting two orders and my son loved the boneless wings and trying all the sauces. Customer service was great. The best part? I lost my wallet there without realizing. I'm sure college bars have lots of items in lost and found but a lovely guy named Matt took the time to search my name on Facebook, send me a message and offered to send my wallet by mail himself. I asked him to please take the $50 in my wallet for postage and a thank you but he wouldn't take more than postage. (Matt, I'm still hoping you take at least a $20!) Obviously the staff is lovely. 10/10

Has a bar area and plenty of tables inside. There's also a patio great for watching live music. Best things about it are the drinks and food. It's fairly cheap as far as how popular it is. This is one of the main hangouts east of the campus area along with the Rose Bowl which is next to here and always has music on weekends. Come chill. It's about $5 to get basic mixers like Jameson and whatever. Food is better than expected. It's about $11 for an entree like a burger. These come with a side. I got a Veggie Burger. The coolest thing is they have a toppings bar where you can top it with onions, pickles, or whatever. Loaded it up and it was a glorious mess. The rest of the menu has other sandwiches including grilled cheese, Reubens, and others. For sure it's a classic and there's plenty more things coming. It's located on Water among some back alleys and other unassuming places. The best times are weekends when there's music and stuff.

Fun place for watching a game. The prices are low too. I like how this is kind of a smaller bar but it's also fun. Pretty cheap prices on things. This is especially true for wells. It's $2 for a typical well drink. So apparently they have some pizza but the quality is questionable. It's about the only expensive thing here at about $20 each. The quality makes avoiding this probably the best idea. Good place for watching a game. It isn't even bad watching the Illini in here because it's small and not as many people are in here. The bar itself is pretty gross and smelly.

Pour Bros is a great way to get a sample of beers from around here and worldwide. Get as little or as much as you would like to get. The price varies. Coming here a few times it's like there's always something else you can get. It's got shit tons of beers along the wall you can fill up on your own. The first thing is to get a card so you can activate taps. Every beer is at a price. It's per ounce and it adds up. Best one we got of these was the Wake Brewery selection Frost Hammer. It's $0.80 an ounce, which is one of the more expensive ones. Can bring food in here. They also have free popcorn. Have to know there's no special events before going or you will have to pay a cover. It's located on University at Market. There's not really any food but you can bring in stuff.

Also prices are fairly good. They have a pretty okay selection but it gets limited sometimes. Beers are plentiful around here but fewer are carefully crafted. It's what makes this place actually special. This is also a much more relaxing atmosphere than chugging at some campus bar so you can actually enjoy the flavor too. A few styles to choose from. It's about $6 a pint. Best one we had of these was the Umlaut Alt. This is a German style altbier which is how beers were made before the lager style. Has notes of caramel, nuts, and toast and is complex yet easy. The other beers are great but often many aren't available because they have smaller batches of these. Great place to get local beers and more mature flavors. It's closed Mondays. This is located on Griggs close to the creek, and while there's no food, there's a few places close to get to by walking.
