Best thing about this village of Princeton is this brewery. Coal Creek is one of the few places…read morearound here to get beers that aren't crap. It certainly is a welcome change from the corporate swill. Also just a nice place to hang. The prices are pretty good for being small and local. A long trip to out here deserves a cold one and this is where to go. It's one of the few places in town that isn't some dive bar or fast food chain it seems. They actually have a pretty good variety. Kind of unexpected with it being a small one. There's actually a good amount including some fruity sours. It's about $7 a pint. We had a few with the best of these being the More Than A Weekend. It's a summer melon lager. They also make cocktails if that's a preference. For sure it's the best place in town for beers. It's located in downtown in a historic building that's cool to check out. There's no food but you can bring in stuff.

From Pale Ales,Stouts,Rye IPA,Wheat and Fruit beers,Coal Creek offers something for everyone. They offer flights as well as a full bar serving crafted cocktails. They didn't have any ciders but they did have a few seltzers for the non beer drinker. I tried a flight of 4 5 oz pours. Each tasting was 3.00. I really liked their Homestead Lager . 4.8 ABV. They do not serve food. They now offer cans and growlers to go. You can sit by the open windows in the front of the tap room ,at the bar or at one of the hi tops. There is a gaming area in the back of the taproom as well. Plenty of street parking available. Nice place to relax and enjoy a locally sourced beer in Princeton.

We were there when they did a nod to New Orleans, it was so good! Loved the shrimp and grits. The crawfish was so delicious, you would have thought you were transported to Louisiana. Wonderful food all around. The baked lasagna, I heard, was better than the Italians make in Italy. And you couldn't go wrong with the meatloaf. They did a great job accommodating a dairy allergy, which isn't always easy in small towns. We will be back!

They have so many signs up not to take photos, they want you to buy the stuff not search for it online. It's cute but you can totally find that stuff on Amazon for a lot less. You can say that it's the curation of the items that matter and yes, but the prices are prohibitive for items that are mass produced. This isn't chicago. In previous years I found more Illinois/regional items or small business items that I'd be happier to give my money towards. Maybe it's post Covid inflation but the other stores in the area are much friendlier and have more unique pieces.
