    We love The Bullpen and try to make it in there for a meal once a week or so. Their BBQ Egg Rolls are delicious! We've had a variety of items from their new expanded menu and each item is really good. The owner is very nice and so is his staff. It's a really friendly neighborhood place but if you are a stranger in town visiting, don't worry. You'll be treated like a neighbor, too. This is a must stop place for my son when he is in town from Chicago. Their beer selection is great. Their bloody Mary's are yummy, too.

    I ordered a burger from this place and it was completely raw and the tater tots were mushy and cold it is not worth the money.

    Terrible place for a bar and restaurant, the middle of a neighborhood? The food might be ok but the location is terrible.

    Fantastic! Buffalo wings and sandwiches are great - best bbq I have had in a while. Hot bbq sauce is recommended.

    First things first--this joint's décor and upholstery? Fuggedaboutit. You walk in and bam--it's…read morelike you just stepped into a 1920s speakeasy where everyone knows your name and nobody asks questions. The vibe is criminally good. Now let's talk eats, see. We ordered the cauliflower crust cheese pizza with candied jalapeños (a tip from the owner's wife--she knows things) and pineapple (yeah, yeah, pineapple on pizza... take it up with the boss). Every bite was a knockout. No witnesses. Just flavor. Then came the BBQ six-pack of wings--juicy, flavorful, and so tender the meat practically jumped off the bone on its own. These wings didn't do time in the oven too long, if you know what I mean. We also grabbed the fried mushrooms with a cup of ranch, and let me tell ya, they disappeared faster than a guy who talks too much. This place knows how to take care of its customers--and I ain't talkin' about sleeping with the fishes. If you haven't eaten here yet, I'll do you a favor (and since it's my daughter's wedding, that's a big deal): you'll never have to eat flavorless food again. Go to Good Fellas. Sit down, eat up, and let them take care of yous... capisce?

    I would have given this place only one star, but the chick bartender deserves a star and the drinks…read morewere another star. The guy bartender who started to wait on us was a complete jerk and threw the other three stars away single-handedly. After checking our IDs, he told us that domestic bottles were only $1 that night (it was Thursday). My husband ordered a Coors which was okay with the bartender, but when I tried ordering a Dos Equis, he snarled, "That's not a dollar." and walked away before I could order anything else. The chick bartender quickly noticed him walking away and proceeded to wait on us for the rest of the night because he seemed more interested in socializing and texting than doing his job. If we do go back, it would be for excellent service from that one female bartender and her excellent mixed drinks, but I wouldn't count on it. We found a better bar in Dana, IL.

    I was able to try the "new" Cheapseats during a trip home over the holidays…read more While there isn't much on Main Street in downtown Streator, Cheapseats is one of the businesses that seems to attract in the patrons. Maybe it's the friendly bar staff, the clean and trouble free atmosphere or that it's a place you can go and feel welcomed by everyone who is in there. After being in the old shuttered Blue Room, the building was purchased and revamped into a sports bar atmosphere. It has been purchased and sold a couple of times over the past few years, but each owner has kept the same tradition of having a good quality bar. I generally have patronized Cheapseats for the after work happy hour crowd. There is just something about sitting around after grinding the stone all day, shotting the bull, watching ESPN on the tv's throughout the bar and rocking out to classic rock and country on the jukebox. Throw in a quick appetizer and it's a good evening. The bar also has numerous arcade machines, pool table, and dart machine. If your not into the "bar atmosphere," Cheapseats also has a spacious dining area with a full regular menu, salad bar, and nightly dinner specials as well. The key to their success has to be Debbie, she is always outgoing, friendly and makes sure to know her customers. If you are ever passing through my little off the beaten path hometown, be sure to stop in if you are looking for a great little watering hole.

    Without a doubt the best Burgers served anywhere. the lettuce & tomatoes are fresh cut & crisp…read more You get a big slice of tomato ... not some little stale colorless slice of tomato and limp lettuce. The cook at this gem rocks! All the dishes are done to perfection. He takes pride in everything that comes out of the kitchen. The staff is always friendly and efficient. The atmosphere is fun and very clean. I only eat in 4 restaurants in Streator. Cheapseats is two of them.
