“ This place is an absolutely blast. I really like the outdoor area with the RV. They had everything decked out for Halloween weekend. Bartenders were really nice and accommodating. The DJ was awesome too. If you’re in Logan Square and looking for a unique spot and good time, you’ve got me your place! ”
“ Okay, this place is like a hidden gem in Logan Sq. A group of like 9 or more walked in w/o reservations for Sunday brunch and had a place to sit in their awesome outdoor area, with a dj curating 90s music and this cool bus converted to a bar (Vodka Pink Lemonade yum)! The weather was optimal and the place was clean, its just chill vibes all around! Most of us got the thirty dollar 'Brunch Club' special (one entree & bottomless drinks)!! To order: the ladies at the inside bar take payment, you get a wristband for drinks and a ticket for food. Head to the window & pick your entree (enjoyed the Breakfast Nachos) then you'll be given a ping pong ball with a number they announce when food is ready. There's also a huge BINGO board that displays the orders ready for pickup! Check them out ”
“ Popped in for a quick drink and ended up staying for a few. The bartenders Nikita and Zane were super friendly and attentive. Great vibe and will definitely be back! ”
“ Went here with a couple of friends. Had the chicken that are basket, fries, and corn dogs. They have a great patio and drink selection! The food is standard bar food but pretty good as well! ”
“ Throwback time! From Patty melts and fried green beans to corn dogs and fried bologna sandwiches, this place is a great spot for a fun meal or a few hours with friends. Lots of games, fun decorations and best of all the staff actually look they like enjoy working there. Good prices and really good vibes. The yard in the back has a bar bus that will not disappoint. We sat for an hour and had a late lunch and drink. So fun and reliable. ”
“ One of my favorite bars in the city, Chris is a champion of the human spirit, the food is delicious, sometimes you can catch a free homemade chocolate chip cookie, the drinks go down easy and their bingo and karaoke nights are a blast ”
“ Drinks are fire. Food is fire. Atmosphere is also pretty fire. Chicken sandwich is top drawer. Top 3 in the city, right behind Lucy's. The sandwiches here have never disappointed. They keep me coming back. The blue raspberry slushy with Tito's is the best on a hot day. This is hands down one of my favorite places to go in Logan. Super chill with all the lawn chairs outside. ”
“ This has fast become one of my favorite places in the city especially on Sunday to do karaoke. The community here is amazing and everyone friendly. It's a good spot for a range of ages from 20s - 40s. The staff is personable and makes quality drinks. The bar features a lot of activities and it feels like there's always something happening from Bingo on a Monday, Karaoke on Sunday and infamously at Midnight they just straight up give everyone in the bar hot dogs. They have a patio and the staff is fantastic. If you go on a Monday or Sunday definitely say what's up to Chance the Bartender and stay for the Karaoke at 9. You will not regret it. They also have brunch and the food is actually pretty great. Highly recommend if you're in Logan Square and need a fun place with fair prices and an unforgettable time, everytime. ”
