A little loud on the weekends but a really great place to hang out with your buddies, catch a game, and grab a beer . One of my favorite spots when I lived in the area.

Ryan

Our waitress was very attentive, and they have heat towers outside. My friend really liked the sandwich with the shaved blackened chicken . Their citrus dressing is good.

John Hankus

University of Illinois and Marquette Hangout Bar . Decent drink specials on game days. Food is typical pub fare . Good service by wait staff . Check the back room for seating and better TV viewing angles

Andrew DeSio

A great alternative to Justin's, which was really more of a slut dungeon/internment camp than a restaurant/bar.

Danial Shams

The buffalo chicken wrap was great and the sweet potato fries were some of the best I've ever had.

Juan InAmillion

Trivia every Tuesday night at 8! Do well enough in a round and win your team a free pitcher of beer , skillet cookie , or maybe even some shots.
