“ Stop here a couple times a month. This is 100% dive bar. Overall it’s pretty worn down but kept pretty clean. The locals are friendly and typically interact with others. Food is pretty good and they have daily specials. There seems to be enough parking at least during the day. Bar tenders are friendly and do a good job with the service. Pool table, darts and gambling machines. A few tvs are typically playing some sports. ”
“ I came in here at the end of my shift and really had an amazing time with Tia. She introduced me to some really fun old school beers that they have like hamms. They also have Malort, which was extremely fun as a Chicago history lover! I can’t tell you enough how great the Tuesday 50 Cent wings are! Some of the best chicken wings I’ve ever ever had! ”
