Everything was going great until the waitress told us if we weren't staying for the band we could get our money back from the bouncer because we shouldn't have had to pay! We didn't ask her for our money back she brought it up. She told the owner and he came over asking if he could buy us a free round instead of giving our money back and we said no we were okay and didn't want the free drink as we were ready to leave. He didn't like that my sister said no to the free drink and called her a weiner. Very unprofessional of the owner of the bar. He told us he has to pay $1,000 for the band so he didn't want to give the money back and my sister responded "that's not our problem" and he got mad and slammed the door and told the bouncer to give us money back as we left. He was completely wasted as well. As an owner maybe you shouldn't be wasted and calling patrons in the bar childish names and it was only 8:30pm!

A good place for cheap ass beer. It might be the most affordable place in Joliet to get hammered…read more Judge's Bar doesn't judge if it appears you may be drinking a lot. Cool old school feeling place that feels like it could have been the middle of last century where hard working fellows went after work to have some good suds and fun. They have some of the cheapest beer including Heileman's Old Style. It doesn't have much to look at here. Pretty much a typical looking dive bar with longtime regulars. They have obviously found something special about it and I think I know what. Cheap beer. It may be the cheapest place in Joliet. There seems to be a crowd of regulars who agree about this. Happy hour is the best. They're even cheaper if that's even possible. Heileman's Old Style is here. It's $1.25 for a pint. That's crazy cheap for all this. Also cheap ass cocktails. The wells are popping at happy hour. Good place for watching some ball games. It has lots of cheap suds and is a classic place for regulars to hang out. There's no food here but you can order and bring it in from somewhere.

So I try this place again bc people tell me I might of just had a bad experience. So, I go there…read moresober as a squirrel. Order a round of shots ( 3 shots ) and a beer. I then order 1 more beer and 1 shot. I get my tab and I'm charged 5 shots and 1 beer. When I questioned it they acted like they don't know what I was talking about. I cut my night short. The red headed girl bartender, Monty and Ryan are the only reason I go there. Everyone else scams you. Might have to find a new neighborhood bar. Really tired of being over charged.

Large, roomy, elegant but still laid back. We stopped in for lunch but I can totally see the dinner crown hanging here before after theater shows or shopping. The decor is clean, crisp, and stylish. The staff and service is excellent! Refined yet casual and comfortable. I wish I had asked my severs name she was great. In fact a few servers checked on us while she was bus attending to other tables. We started with the Brussels sprouts which were large and plentiful with some in zest we dug in and enjoyed them very much. I had burger which was hand pattied and full of flavor. Really good burger holds up to any burger out there really. My daughter had the rib eye steak sandwich which was really good as well and rather large for the price. Cooked just as requested and on a nice fresh bilillo type roll. It's a great stop and I definitely plan on trying dinner there as their offerings look excellent. A great spot for casual or fine dining fare.

Azul Celeste is a fun gathering place for drinks as well as food. Has okay prices on most items. They have a not so big menu but there's still plenty of options. A kind of unassuming building. It's located downtown, which isn't pretty. The inside is a lot better, with fun things like slots. A lot of cocktails to choose from. It's about $10 for a margarita. A few flavors are available. I got it with the mango. A limited menu for food. It's $10 for guacamole. This is great for dipping chips and other stuff. Chill atmosphere early and later gets better. It's located in downtown on Chicago Avenue at Benton in a building that looks sketchy. The menu has cocktails, taco, and other things.

Ever since I learned that there was a speakeasy in Lockport i've always wanted to check it out but…read moreI didn't want to go there by myself so I finally convinced my wife to visit the Speakeasy with me. We figured it would have been the perfect way to top off our evening. For first-timers it might be hard trying to find the speakeasy since at first I thought you had to access it from the Busy Street and walk up three flights of stairs. Actually you just walk inside of the Embers building, find the elevator that's kind of hidden and take it to the Third floor. I thought that the little trip up felt exclusive already. Once you're at the third floor you are treated to a beautiful array of scenery. Exit to your left and you were treated to the bar and some great tables with a cozy, intimate setting. I'm not sure if it was open seating since there was a little podium right off the elevator so we just sat ourselves. Some speakeasies require a certain dress code to keep up with the times. This one thankfully was casual though many people dressed business casual. We actually loved how the staff dressed as well. I have to try their Japanese sex drink and I absolutely loved every ship that I took. The drinks are fairly price. They did have a food menu but it was mainly snacks and small plates that were a bit overpriced. If we're having a large Gathering they have a big private room next door. This place does have a lot of great events going on as well with their upcoming Valentine's Day event that looks really interesting. It does get pretty busy as well after 7:00 p.m. from our experience. Overall, I was excited and enjoyed our visit coming to the 933 speakeasy!

It's a small space and it definitely gets crowded, but that's part of the charm. You're packed in, close to the stage, and fully in it with everyone else. There is an upstairs balcony if you want a break from the floor, but most of the action is general admission and the sound down there is really solid. Loud, clear, and exactly what you want for a show like this. They sell food but I can't speak to that as I've never gotten it but it always smells good. Free parking nearby is a huge bonus and makes the whole night way easier. If you like intimate shows, sweaty crowds, and good sound, this is absolutely the spot.
