Monica is the best bartender ever!!!! Most fun place around come join the fun.
Review Date: September 9th, 2014 Visiting this place was my late uncle Randy’s favorite thing to do when he had free time. So I knew I had to visit it some day in his honor. Overall, it is a nice little bar that I could see my friends and I chilling at. The bartender was nice and we chatted with her for most of the time. They do have dollars stuck to the ceiling. After about 15 minutes, I got one stuck to the ceiling too! Just requires a tack, a dollar and a quarter and you can toss them up and try to get them to stick. I wonder if it is still there after 2+ years. Sorry, I don’t have much to say about this place. Just a quaint little bar that I paid respects to my late uncle at.
That's a great bar down in East Peoria. Friendly atmosphere they got games. They've got one pool table they've got shuffleboard and a dart game. But the staff and the owners there they're just so friendly what a great place to go and hang out
The blonde Wednesday night bartender is extremely rude. I put $10 in the jukebox and asked her to turn it up, she proceeded to tell me no then turned the music off completely when I asked her why she couldn't turn it up. I won't waste any more money in that place. Don't bother if you're looking for an upbeat, fun environment.
A very friendly spot down town, good folks. Good bartenders and good prices... A very friendly environment. Recommend to everyone! Nice for low key atmosphere.
Good crowd , make sure ya tell em Wesley sent ya.
Friendly place to have a few beers! Had a Butch's Pizza and Tamales while we were there also.
