This is by far my favorite spot to hang out in Urbana. I'm SO happy that they opened in Urbana, because even though Champaign isn't far from my house, it's really nice to have such a cool spot so close to home. I'm in the process of studying for a major board exam, so I love coming to Bar M and getting a beer and studying in this environment in the early evening. The atmosphere is super chill and comforting. I love that they have the option of sitting at a table as well as the comfortable chairs. The staff is seriously top notch. Friendly, knowledgable, and they always remember me and my husband when we come in and ask how we're doing. Their decor is more in line with a cool Chicago spot than a bar in the middle of Urbana. The beer is always fresh, and they have realllllly good happy hour deals. All in all, I give them an A+++!
