Underground dive bar that is just friggin awesome. They also have tons of power outlets in case you want to get some work done and have a few drinks. Heads up, because it's underground, your phone signal might be a little spotty.

Great little bar in Chicago! Saw reviews for the atmosphere and it turned out they were right. It has a great vibe and pool tables to have some fun times. The staff was extremely friendly and had no problem keeping up a conversation. They were also very knowledgeable about all the different types of beers they carried.

The ambiance here is absolutely lovely. Their microbrewery selection is very wide and will please to even the pickiest drinkers. Food is very good. Prices are what you would expect and doesn't leave you homeless after a night out. Staff was very courteous and friendly. Would go back!

Good food! Nice cider collection. You will feel like you’re at a kids’ junior high cafeteria if you were born before 1985, though. 😂

Pretty decent bar food but extremely slow service. Went here with two co workers on our Friday lunch break. The bar was practically empty but our food took forever! We ended up going back to work a couple minutes late. One of my friends got the truffle mushroom Mac and cheese which I had a bite of... so so good. I will definitely be back again to order it. I got a crab and shrimp salad which was pretty good! They also have $5 drafts of beer of the week or beer of the month (can't remember) which is a great deal!

Love it. Great music. Just a little hard to notice and great vibe. Good drink prices for a downtown bar.

The drink selection is great with a multitude of options on draft, bottles, wine, cocktails, and more. If you're hungry, the food is pretty good and goes well with whatever you're drinking. Staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, and the few times I've been here there has never been a wait for a table (your mileage may vary). Orders come out in good time, as well. The decor and ambience are quite nice and the whole place has a cozy but trendy feel to it.
