Great drinks, lively atmosphere, and really fun karaoke! You can be here for hours. Best place in Elgin. Shoutout to Dane. He makes the best drinks. A complete bar master.

Great place. My husband and I went there around 11pm on a Saturday night, we had a place to sit at the bar. The bartender was great, kept our drinks full, checked in on us, and gave us water without having to ask. Bathrooms were clean and the dj was popping. What more could you ask for?

I was visiting from Florida and initially, the vibe was great, but first impressions were off and while this bar was okay, the KJ and the bartenders made it uncomfortable. I've never been to a spot where the bartenders do karaoke before the patrons. It's Wednesday night, sure. At the same time customers should be in the driver's seat when it comes to karaoke, not the bartenders. Overall, I felt uncomfortable after the initial meet and greet. I would say, be careful about coming here. If a bar is weary of strangers, is it a bar at all?

Nice... blocked my original post because I mentioned the upcoming charges being brought against your establishment. Suppression of free speech because you don't agree with facts, sickening. It's all good... you can run but you cannot hide...
