If you're in the northwest suburbs and need a local watering hole, the Stanchion is a solid choice…read more Just west of Maple Grove it is a place that is full of both regulars and non regulars on any weekend night. We venture here at least a few times a year and have a blast every time we go! Every Friday the whole bar plays BANKO at 9 and then moves on into karaoke which is always fun to watch. It seems like every evening has something fun, like bingo, meat raffles or karaoke, going on at the Stanchion and there's always pull tabs to play. Drinks are cheap compared to what you'll see at almost any other nearby location. Food is limited to Heggies pizza but Heggies pizza is really the only kind of food you need at a bar! Inside has plenty of space and tables. It appears they've done multiple DIY additions over the years that include a space for darts, party space and patio. Parking is plentiful in the dirt lot with overflow readily available if the main lot is full. It isn't anything fancy but if you're looking for a cheap, unpretentious night out with friends that includes beer, pizza and maybe some bar bingo or karaoke, look no further than the Stanchion!

I have been here a few times since the new owner made improvements to the menu. The hamburgers are…read moreflavorful and cooked just right. The chicken strips are about as good as chicken strips can get. But the best thing is the broasted chicken. And they even broast the potato halves, too! Amazing taste and texture. When the place is about half-full or less, the service is very attentive and friendly. But when it's elbow-to-elbow for karaoke night or during a band, don't expect to get speedy meal service. But then again, if you're going there for the late-night music, you probably already ate supper before you left the house.

I live nearby, driving past Do Re Mi several times a week and finally said to myself "why not?". So…read moreI asked some friends if they'd be down. We called the day before to make a reservation for Saturday night and there were very few spots available. We snagged a 8-10PM slot. You enter through Hoban (which smelled delicious), and then are led through a hallway with various rooms. It reminded me of practice rooms in the music department or a college. Except...they aren't soundproof. We got a large room for 6 people because that was what was available, but the small room looked like it would have done the job. The host explained the karaoke system and we were singing. Full disclosure: the remote is in Korean-but there's a piece of paper that explains the controls. There was a...unique list of songs. We had no problem finding songs to sing, but some specific songs would be missing (I.e. sometimes the artists' most popular songs wouldn't be there, but obscure singles would be there). It was pretty random for what would be available. You have full access to the menu at Hoban and drinks while in the karaoke room. We already ate, but we ordered drinks. We were having so much fun that we asked the host if we could extend our time. Online said they closed at 4AM, but we were informed that they actually close at 10PM. All in all, I hope to be back!
