Great atmosphere and good service. I had the fried chicken sandwich. (They do NOT have grilled chicken). It was good but they didn't have tomatoes which was disappointing. None the less the sandwich was good. This was my second visit and it was better. The first time I got a soup and it was not something I cared for. However I would definitely go back and try something new.

Had been wanting to come here for awhile. I got the Nashville hot chicken and it had solid flavor. The one issue was that there was not much chicken. My friend got the rice bowl which she hated but I loved it and even took it home and ate again later that day. Also tried their adult slushies. I can't remember all the flavors but most of them were weird and not my thing. I did enjoy the mule flavored one though. Delicious!

I have been here multiple times over the past few months and all I can say is wow. No matter what I get, every time everything is absolutely perfect. I’m fairly picky and typically when I find something I like I stick to it, however here I am not afraid to try everything! No matter what, it is absolutely fantastic, along with the staff being great too! Highly recommend!

Really great bar with food. Only drank here but there is food with table service. Drinks were great. They specialize in bourbon cocktails. We were lucky to catch a great blue grass band. Super cozy, historic building in the heart of Champaign. Definitely worth a visit.

Very good friend chicken sandwich. No grilled option :(. House mayo very yummy but also salty. No tomatoes we're available.
