This is one of my go to places in downtown Urbana. Great atmosphere and staff, you can't go wrong whether you're heading to happy hour after work or if it's date night with your significant other.
What's great about Crane Alley is the welcoming atmosphere inside, and ample seating so you really never have to wait for a table. One of my favorite parts is their outdoor seating in the alleyway (don't worry, it's not a creepy alley!). It's the perfect setup for the warm weather and when the lights are lit up at night it's absolutely beautiful.
This is truly a place that has something for everyone.Their beer selection is always spot on, and always has something new to try every visit. Their food is great, especially their chilli and buffalo chicken sandwich.
Bottom line: no matter what the occasion, this place will not disappoint.
