This is the same person that helped me last time I was in town and the only other time I've been here. She is super helpful and talks you through all the options. Came in at happy hour which is $3 off all drinks from 4:00 to 8:00 Monday thru Friday. I got a great well-made old fashioned for $7.63! Old school prices for the old school ambiance. It's a bit of a hike getting up the stairs to the place but it is worth it as you feel transported back in time. Well decorated with great music. Great place to chill and relax from the summer heat. Will definitely return next time I'm in town.

After all I had only consumed a measly 10 tequila drinks and 12 beers! I thought this was a bar??? Most of the girls here are bar rats but a few diamonds in the rough will appear on occasion. My step son (7) was knocked to the ground by 2 college aged guys who were involved in a shoving match. After being kicked out me and my step son snuck back in at 2AM and bummed cigs from the outside table area on the first floor until security recognized me and physically escorted me off the premises. The bouncers here need to check their egos and grow up!

One gentleman defecated all over the sinks in the bathroom and cleaned it up with his bare hands! Nearing the end of the evening (2:30 am) a rather large young lady tried seducing me.

I was going to start this review by saying that nostalgia can't help everything when it comes to a…read moreplace from my past. I was originally going to say that nostalgia should take you back to your youth without having to deal with the youth that are now frequenting this college watering hole. But I decided when it comes to 17-16, I can't find anything else wrong with it besides having to deal with college students. But you know what, when you have a great "college bar", you really shouldn't expect anything different. Therefore I will let nostalgia from the bar I loved in college negate any of those negative thoughts. Although, I'm sure our group stuck out like the old alums that still hit the bars when they are in town. What makes this bar a great college bar? First of all, the bar runs on both sides and there are always plenty of bartenders. Making it very easy to get a drink. Not to mention college town prices are AMAZING. Also because of this wrap around bar concept, it keeps people flowing in a "lap walking" form. So even though it gets crowded, it doesn't feel that claustrophobic. There is also an outside area in the back. So if you want to get out of the crowded bar, this is usually pretty wide open. Would I frequent 17-16 if it were in my hometown? Probably not. But when I do my once in a blue moon visits and know what I'm getting in to, I can't think of another late night bar in the loveliest village on the plains.

Yay! What a fabulous find. Got a resy during move in and was exactly what we needed to relax and…read moreunwind. Packed but felt fun and alive versus loud and cramped. Drinks were fabulous (try the Peach Mule) and we crushed the bacon flight (fought over who could get the last maple bite). Then we had shrimp and grits, bison burger and a Caesar. All were flavorful and some of the best we've ever had. Our server was training tonight but his apprentice was just as knowledgeable and attentive - in fact he helped us with drink selection and ensured we had bottles of water flowing since we were so dehydrated from the day. Cannot wait to go back and try other things on the menu. Thank you friends at the Hound - hit the spot.

Food: 3.5 Service: 5 stars…read more We tried sooo many items on the menu. We had the pork skins, wings, and bacon flight for starters. The pork skins were very good and crispy. The wings were wayyy too big and felt undercooked, and the bacon flight was unremarkable. The entrees were also okay. The best was the shrimp and grits which I would return on this dish only. Evrything was just too too salty. My palate was ruined after a while. The rest were just okay, but I did like the greens. Standout was that bread pudding. Grab a friend to help you or keep it all for yourself!!

Anytime I'm visiting the area, I love to stop in to this cute cocktail spot! It's a college town,…read moreso it's kind of unexpected because it doesn't only cater to students. It gives speak easy vibes, and the lighting and seating make it comfortable. They even have a cocktail for a cause with donations given to an organization when that specific drink is purchased. I loved that they were celebrating Harry Potter's birthday, and we enjoyed potions that represented our houses. (I'm Gryffindor if you're curious.) It was slow, but I like to come in when the university doesn't have athletic events or fall/spring classes aren't in session. The bartenders were kind & helpful when we asked questions. There's parking in front of the door & the surrounding areas, so depending when you go, it may be easy or difficult to park. Love: chestnut club (gin-based, suggested by the bartender); vibes (really good energy here)

They have daily drink and food specials to add to the fun. I ordered a cheeseburger and it was overall a pretty decent burger although I wasn't fond of the fact they seemed to only have packets of mustard and not an actual container of mustard for me to use (I hate those tiny packets while ketchup gets much larger packets). This place is in a prime location close to many other spots so you can definitely add this to your Auburn pub crawl adventure if you want.

Sadly, this was a disappointing experience from start to finish. The restaurant was super…read moreunderstaffed, there were plenty of tables open but all needing to be bussed. We could not even put our names in. We went to get drinks while waiting, which took an inordinate amount of time. We finally sat, but needed to place our dinner order at the bar. Because of this, the staff wandered around from table to table with food as it came out...which for us was over an hour and with 1/2 hour between some of our meals. The bathroom was filthy with a PLUNGER on the counter next to the sink and no toilet paper. I notified the hostess twice about the tp, but she was unconcerned. Two of our meals were forgotten and even later than the rest. The one bright spot was that when we asked for a specific game to be turned on, we were accommodated. But we will not be back. The staff seemed unconcerned with the poor service.
