Fantastic burger and the service was great! The outdoor patio was really nice with TV showing the Cubs game.

Great local food and drink establishment. Nice atmosphere and outside sitting area as well. They've done a great job with sound and TVs.

Best bar in Byron. Great atmosphere and very friendly staff. The Cave burger is the best burger I've had in a long time.

I tried this place based on the recommendation from some of the locals. Walking in, this is a place…read morethat only a local could love. It's not a large establishment; mainly you had the bar, some tables and a couple of games. It was dark, dank and honestly it looked like it could use a good cleaning, but I'm afraid if someone did try to clean in there, it would just make things fall apart. The building, furnishings and equipment are all in need of repair or maintenance. The padded arm rest along the edge of the granite looking laminate bar is cracked, peeling and torn leaving holes that expose the stuffing. It was uncomfortable resting against it because the edges of the vinyl were dry and would poke into the skin on my arm. The service was kind of off. There was only one bartender when I was in. It was decently busy and I think she handled all of the tables too. I really wasn't paying attention so I'm not sure, but she would disappear for a while leaving me beerless. Even at the end when we said we were ready to go, she was slow getting the check to us and then collecting the payment. Their special was tacos. The price was good, and they tasted fine. I don't think they were as great as some of the other people in the bar raved over them, but I've definitely had worse in a bar setting. I wouldn't go out of my way for them.

Oh my goodness, how to describe Spanky's...it is quite simply an old fashioned hallway tavern…read more Popcorn machine (free) by the jukebox, men's and ladies rooms are from another time...complete with retro condom dispensers. A couple dart boards, a few big screens in the corners and behind the bar, which spans almost the entire length of the place. 6 or 7 stool height booths along other side of wall with one made for larger groups by the kitchen window. Here's the kicker...great food and very friendly staff. Order anything, it is awesome. Friends of mine swear by the fish fry. Homemade egg rolls once a week too. It hasn't changed much in the 30 years I've been there...but why bother changing a good thing?

We have your typical small town bar. You walk in and there is a pool table, a rail with stools…read morealong the wall, a horseshoe shaped bar and some tables. The chairs at the bar are in bad shape and are in serious need of being replaced. They vinyl covering on them is cracked and coming apart to the point you can see the stuffing in the chair. My friend and I where the only two in there other than the bartender and a woman I believe was the owner cooking something in a big pot on a hot plate at one of the tables. I'm pretty sure this is a "locals only" type of establishment and they don't get too many outsiders in there based on the reception we received. The service was good; the bartender kept out mugs filled and the both of us happy. The prices were pretty good too. I'm not sure if it was a special, but we were only charged $1.50 for a 12 oz. domestic draft. I don't know if they serve food or not. We weren't offered menus, and I didn't see anything that indicated they did serve food, but the one woman was cooking something, so I could be wrong. We didn't get to spend a lot of time here as we had to get back home, but there really wasn't anything that made me want to stay even if I could have. It's not a bad bar, but I think I'd rather spend my time someplace that was a bit less rustic.

Prices are higher than other bars in town, the decor is pretty lacking, and they stop their…read morespecials after a certain time. I don't know if they serve food or not, but if they did I would certainly not be trying it.
