Michael Hudec: $5 for a local brew pint and the smallest appetizer sampler ever $12. Stick to the suburbs and mind the street folks on the way out.

Kelly Kniewel: Grand River Whiskeys from Carbondale. Made with 100% corn, from Illinois (they make their own mash too). Hello gluten free!

LyVonna Brown: Worth going to

Leo Alberti: They claim a "small" pizza will feed two people, but they don't mention that it will never fill the new void in your life caused by not having this pizza. Get a large, bring some home. Trust me.
Melvin Mcentee: You can bring your own food, fun board games, great beer and music.
chibueze: great beers... habitual and everleigh selections are standouts. nice, raw, rustic decor. lights could be dimmer. needs candles for a lil ambiance. mute the TV's please. turn on some tunes!

Ed S.: I know this will seem sacrilegious, given it is Chicago, but the thin crust pizza here is great. The crust is buttery, and the cheese compliments it perfectly.
Sarah Dineen: Expect to wait awhile but the deep dish pizza is excellent! The Leaning App Tower and Family Style Salad is a great deal, too. Ask for Zuri as your waitress - she's the best!
