Has no Yelper ever step foot here? Why have you not added it so I could check in? If you've been lucky enough to come here, then you must have just driven by and saw it sitting on the corner of Prairie street and River like I did or somehow saw their FB page. If you love dive bars you'll love The Corner! They have all the essentials - cheap beer, pool tables (2 of them), jukebox and the rotating cloth towel thingy in the bathroom! Seriously, is the towel roll ever replaced or washed?!? No, I don't want to know. There are 2 large tables near the pool table that is perfect for a board game. My friends and I had a great time playing Exploding Kittens here. There were about 3 other locals while I was here and they were all drinking by the bar. We did not get stabbed, it was a great night.

An old school place that feels like someone's old house you crash at after a big ass bash. DeKing's…read morecertainly looks more like a house than a bar so it makes sense. It looks small from the outside, and it's not any bigger on the inside, so it's tight. Cheap ass booze and pool. These often combine with each other. Bar goers used to those newer places may want to hold their breath. It certainly has that old bar smell that defines a classic. The combination of cigarette smoke, stale beer, and a little piss. Only a few beers are on tap, and they're crap. The better stuff is in bottles and cans, including Old Style. Correct, that's what's considered a good beer. It's $2.25 for a big can. There's a pool table in the middle of the bar and patrons often get in the way. Simply no room to move around here. The good thing is this always feels crowded because of this. Have a good time but it's not a good idea bringing too many people because they can't fit. It also seems they finally got rid of the rotating hand towel in the bathrooms so they're getting modern. They have lots of good specials going on and it's pretty much any night of the week.

Found this long time local bar in Aurora. It certainly isn't an easy one to find. Stoney's is for…read morethe regulars and it's unlikely that anyone just happens to wander by this. Luckily there's apps and the internet. The inside seems a bit dingy but it's got enough room for gathering and stuff. Bars like this are becoming a thing of the past to be honest. It's one of the few older local joints known for the loyal regulars. That doesn't mean they don't welcome newcomers though. Kind of funny how they made room for the facilities. The men's bathroom is through some partial door and a little hallway. Good prices on most cocktails. It's about $7 for Jameson. There's $0.50 bags of chips, but they sell frozen pizzas from a local pizza place. Good place to hang out a bit. It's located on Ridgeway Avenue at Hartford. They have a few slots and whatever.

A pretty simple looking bar with basically just drinks. There's a food truck outside it regularly. Came in and it was surprisingly better looking and clean. It's probably gone through a few renovations. There's lots of pool tables. Apparently this is a popular place to play it. They have tournaments. It's about $6 for a basic cocktail. Whiskey or whatever mixed with a pop. Bathrooms are actually modern and clean. These were a pleasant surprise because we were expecting something cramped and smelly. Good local bar. It's located across from the golf course, but this place doesn't seem like a place for golfers. There's not a food menu, but they have food trucks.

The owner (Miguel) personally walked up to me and my friends and kicked us out simply because my friend had a drink in hand near the pool table, after trying to explain that my friend wasn't even playing and simply viewing us play, Miguel proceeded to make a huge commotion and kicked us out boasting how he's the owner of the place and after I asked for his last name in order to write this review him and his staff refused to give it to me. Safe to say if you want to play pool comfortably with a group of friends do not come here.

O'Malley's is located in one of the more rural parts of the city if you can call it that. Basically one of the few dining options that are right around here. There's the usual beers and cocktails, as well as things like burgers and pretzels. Bigger than it looks inside. It's located pretty close to the golf course so it's a popular spot after playing. This also gets a lot of people who are watching football on weekends. One of the local sports bars. They have a pretty good happy hour. It's about $4 for basic cocktails such as whiskey and Coke. It's about $5 to get the Pretzel Logs. The rest of the food menu is pretty meaty, with things like burgers and chicken tenders. For sure it's a good place for watching games. It's located on Hill Avenue next to Phillips Park. The happy hour is even on weekends.

The End Zone is a bar that obviously has a sports theme. A lot of the basics. The prices are cheap on most things but it's of course crummy quality. Checked it out later one night and we got a few of the best items. It's got things that take forever after ordering. They may be used to people just having cocktails because the food sucks. Basic dive bar kind of crap. There's a few better things, but have some cash on you. It's about $6 for cocktails. Whiskey and whatever. Also get food. It's about $9 for appetizers including the pretzel sticks. Has the obligatory greasy stuff like any dive bar. There's wings and other things. Has a few okay things about it. It's open later even on weekdays so get your drinking and eating on. They're open all the time but go in the afternoons to avoid crazy traffic or whatever.

Ok, so the place smelled kinda bad when I first walked in, but I didn't noticed the stench after a few minutes. I can't even put my finger on what kind of bad. It was a Saturday afternoon, and there were a few people (I peg them for regulars) sitting by the bar. The service was great! The bartender lady took good care of us and was attentive even though we were the only ones not sitting at the bar. Nachos with beef - REALLY GOOD nachos! I was surprised by this awesomeness of this appetizer. The chips were deep fried and slightly puffy. They were loaded with ground beef, beans and cheese. You can also get them with chicken or steak instead of beef. Italian beef - Pretty good, but wasn't a fan of the fresh cut fries. The onion rings were huge and I would order those rather than fries next time. There were plenty of TV's with different sports on them and a few pool tables.
