| - This might be the lesser of all the evils in Champaign, in terms of bars.
$2 wells on a Friday, no cover for 21+, friendly bartenders and door guys, a pretty large inside with the unique loft overlooking the whole place, I have to say I was pleasantly surprised.
The crowd here is mostly older than what you would get at Red Lion or Kam's, I saw a lot of grad-looking students. The music is really loud but ironically not too much dancing going on for some reason.
They don't have gestapo-like security checking every 5 minutes for wristbands, nor does the crowd push you around annoyingly, and the music is usually halfway decent.
The only things I didn't like were that the place is a little dirty, but what U of I bar isn't?
The service was also a little quicker than the other bars, but they still could have used at least 1 more working!
I like this place, it's really great to just sit up on the balcony and have a good conversation with someone as you watch everyone below.
I'll be back!
