Paulie's is such a good vibe. The music, the bartenders, and cook (Rodney) is great! This is definitely my new spot in Aurora.

Great neighborhood bar. Friendly bartenders that know their deal. Big menu for such a small venue.

UPDATE 6/27/13 BACK OPEN AGAIN -- SAME GREAT OLE....COME ON DOWN…read more UPDATE: Freeh's has been closed since first week in May -- much to the dismay of their regulars. this week (May 16?) a sign was added saying "reopening soon" all blinds are drawn, and word on the street is that the owner is deciding whether to carry on or not....bar can't be resold without bringing it up to code, (handicapped accessible) so we can only hope the owner feels the love and re-opens the dive doors! Love the burgers (chips, no fries) at this little hole-in-the-wall. Steps from the metra electric, it's the perfect meeting (or dropping off point) when friends from chicago brave a ride to the south burbs. Good juke box, good bartenders (who tend to be there whether it's their shift or not) , pint draft beers and made-to-order burgers in a basket are their calling cards. (The kitchen hours just changed, with a cut off of 8:00 p.m., i believe during the week.) If you remember the first Freeh's you are officially old, as this one's been there for years and years and YEARS. It's in a charming little old downtown (my chicago friend just moons after the eternally for sale old bank building next door which wold make an uber-cute loft space if anyone that hip wanted to live down here (and fight for the zoning variance that would require.) anyway, this is a dependable, nothing fancy, diverse crowd-drawing neighborhood joint where you can't go wrong. They watch the usual sports -- but if there are no sports on anything goes -- including Stooge-a-palooza and Son of Svenghoulie, so be warned. Only downer - they are closed on Sundays unless the Bears play.

The catfish is incredibly good. My 99 year old mother made this a staple of her diet on Fridays.read more

We were looking for a bar atmosphere to sit and just hang. Bartender was friendly and gave us the…read morelow down on food and specials and they also have frozen drinks. The bar stools we were told were recently changed-the old ones were worse- and they can use another improvement. They are still too short for the bar if you eat there. Your elbows are up to your shoulders when eating, do yourself a favor and go to a table. Other than that, the inside was nice and the music was good. The sign is off to the side so keep going past the Subway and you will find it. There was also the dreaded liquor meter. Some nights I think there is a cover. We ordered the catfish and chicken wing basket that came with fries. The fries were good and crispy. The chicken was good and was seasoned. I was not a fan of the coating but it was okay. The fish I did not get into much as the coating was not for me. They did offer sauces on the side or on the food and that was good. My friend had the garlic parmesan which he liked, i had the buffalo hot sauce.

We stopped by on a Saturday night after another event, since it popped up as one of the only places…read moreclose to our location that was open and serving food since it was after 10pm. The parking lot was actually full so we had to park on the side. They had security at the door to search you before entering. It's actually a pretty large open space, with seating, slot machines, a pool table, and a dance floor. The DJ was high energy and played to the crowd. There were actually quite a few menu options and we went with the fried cauliflower bites and chicken wings and shrimp. The food was ok. It looked good - but wasn't seasoned. Overall, not a bad spot to try if you're in the area.

Their wine selection was amazing, and the Moscato I ordered was great. My bartender, Kore, was such a vibe! I genuinely enjoyed chatting with her and would come back just for the good conversations alone. I also checked out the food menu, and everything sounded delicious and seemed reasonably priced. They have an upstairs patio featuring a Juice WRLD mural. While it's not a Chicago skyline view, the scenery was still pretty decent! There's also a gaming area upstairs, which adds another fun element to the space. Overall, it's a nice spot to grab drinks, relax, and enjoy good company. I'd definitely come back!

Visited Homewood Brewing Company this past Saturday. The building is beautiful, and I liked that…read morethere is both street parking and a parking lot in the back. I originally came for brunch, but my date arrived late and brunch ended at 3:00 p.m., so we had to wait for dinner service to start at 4:00 p.m. I ordered the shrimp and grits. The presentation was nice, served in a large bowl, and the sauce was delicious. However, the portion felt small for the size of the bowl--only four shrimp and not nearly enough grits. My date ordered the same dish and felt the same way. The biggest disappointment was that the food arrived only room temperature. It seems like more and more restaurants are serving food that isn't hot, and that's frustrating. My date also ordered a bacon cheeseburger and fries. The burger came out without the fries, although they were brought out later. Overall, the experience was okay. The atmosphere and building are great, but the food temperature and portion size, left me underwhelmed. I might come back one day to try the brunch menu, but based on this visit, it's probably not a place I'd rush back to.

I told the host ( older light skin lady with braids ) my name for the order... she said that it would be a few more minutes. Cool...me and my son went outside and sat at their tables to wait. We waited for about 10 more minutes and then went back in again to see if our order was ready. The same host came up. I reminded her of my name and she saw it was ready. Right as she turned to go get my food from the back, another lady came in behind me. The host stopped and asked the lady behind me if she had an order placed already which was no... the host then stopped short of going to get my food so she can start taking the lady's order behind me. If you know I've been waiting longer and I was in front of the lady that just came in, why not say " give me second to get her order bc she's been waiting and I'll come take your order". Duh... Thats not only common sense but common courtesy as well. The guy that was working there saw what she did and was like I'll go get her order. That host knew I had been waiting there for my order and knew that the lady came in behind me; however, she treated me like I was unimportant or my time was unimportant. No thanks. That was my first and last time going there. Do better.
