Look, I'm a Hoosier. I don't usually step foot in Lafayette unless I'm lost, out of gas, or being…read moredragged against my will. But I wandered into Sixth Street Dive and--don't tell Bloomington--they actually won me over. The burgers are the size of a freshman textbook and taste a whole lot better. Wings? Spicy enough to make me forget I was surrounded by black and gold. And the beer is so cold I almost forgave the guy at the bar for wearing a Purdue hoodie (almost). The vibe is pure dive-bar magic: pool tables, live music, no pretension. Nobody cares if you're a Hoosier, a Boiler, or just a random traveler who took the wrong exit off I-65. By the end of the night, I was laughing, full, and--dare I say it--having a great time in Lafayette. Sixth Street Dive: proof that even behind enemy lines, a Hoosier can still find happiness... as long as the beer's this cold.

Great place!! Diversity as far as crowd goes, cheap drinks which is always a plus! Bartenders and…read morestaff are really friendly. Big open dance floor with access to the bar without loosing sight of your kids if they are dancing. Really do a lot for the community as far as events and money. You do have to be a member to enter unless it's a open to public night. But I like the fact they don't just let anyone in so you feel a sense of security. You have to be buzzed in another added security measure I like! Free pool tables free shuffle board, loud speakers for the jukebox! Only thing that stinks is it is smoking in the bar. But you can sit in the ballroom completely closed off from the bar.

Everyone was friendly and welcoming, as we continued on into the banquet hall in the rear. We had a catered dinner with VERY inexpensive drinks. They had a service staff that took care of everything, so it was a perfect evening at the VFW. A very different venue for an event and I was quite impressed with how everything worked out. Not being a smoker, you probably wouldn't find me sitting at that bar. However, aside from that, I would come back for another event. Veterans, you have to go there!

After skating for a while a gentlemen came out and told us that we needed helmets and need to fill out some paper work, so we heading inside to find they had a con session stand basketball courts, weight rooms, a swim pool and much much more. Outside of here they have soccer fields and other sports fields. I recommend anyone in this area that is looking for fun or faith, they should check out this places website and see all they have to offer, they have memberships for everything inside, but it's free to skate at there skate park.

Good luck parking now with Chauncy under construction. Specials seem average but stuck with a silly plastic tumbler required to present for the discounts. Brothers is that awkward alternative for cheap drinks. I personally will go for Town and Gown in most cases but timing my first, surprising I know, visit after a decade in the area worked a charm. My buddy and I found an empty and fun bar with one excellent staff member serving. She explained the tap options then we discovered my first pick was drained. Went for the classic Blue Moon, he did a cocktail on the Beach then Baltimore Zoo, surprising how different both were to other places same named drinks. I would happily try again on a whim but even for the decently fair twenty bucks we dropped the missing food demands lower prices for less to digest while drinking.

The 25 cent wing Wednesdays are a joke. You have to wait in line an hour for them to get them at a random window, and they're pretty terrible. They'll also randomly run out after you've been waiting for a while with no warning. Go across the bridge into Lafayette for a better experience.

Down a winding hallway and up a flight of stairs, the Rat Pak is a medium-large, long rectangular event space featuring two bars offset from the main space, a pretty tin ceiling, hardwood floors, exposed brick walls, and a gorgeous view of the courthouse from a wall of windows. For the event I attended, there were string lights strung over the seating and stage area that were very pretty. This would be the perfect place for a wedding reception, quinceañera, or other large party event. Employees were friendly, energetic, and seemed happy to be there. The bartenders at the smaller inner bar were especially friendly. The event I was there for was packed, and the bar line w/ one bartender moved pretty fast I would give 5 stars, but several of the employees (of the venue, not the event I was there for, as they seemed to be affiliated with the owner) were drinking heavily before and while working. one kept trying to get back in the bar line, and kept heckling guests to be allowed to cut in front of them. When he was checking tickets, after the event was already under way so the only people were attendees going to the bar or the bathroom, he was weirdly aggressive and was still drinking while doing it. People had wristbands, so it was 100% unnecessary to interact in this way. (purple dress-shirt, black vest, multicolored tie, short white man... his coworker, a white women in a glittery wrap dress who got up on stage to yell at people about where they were sitting was also drinking, and egged the drunk employee on while he was harassing guests in the bar line) People had wristbands, so it was 100% unnecessary.
