Saw Mr Blotto. Every Sunday Just amazing. Big Fun!
Cozy place, we took some spots at the bar. Bartender was super cool, A+ service
Joe Marcinek Band was the reason for my hour drive as I stayed 3 hours for the positive vibe. Friendly, welcoming atmosphere with great patrons.
Teddy’s is a fantastic hangout for lovers of good local music and DJs and those who love a great dive bar. There is ample space inside to saddle up at the bar or sit at a high-top against the wall. They have the standby pool table and darts board as well. There’s a small stage inside that handles karaoke and DJ nights and enough room for a small crowd to gather and dance.
The outdoor area is amazing and can fit over a hundred patrons. They have a pretty nice stage set up and an outdoor bar to boot. There are a few outdoor tables and high-tops to sit at but be forewarned there will be a wait when one of the more popular bands are playing.
This bar is known for having AMAZING Dead cover bands and rarely disappoints in that realm. Plenty of space to roam, and the people watching is second to none. The bar is also open LATE on the weekends and there always seems to be a very diverse crowd in terms of age. Highly recommend!!
My favorite dive bar, Teddy O’Brian’s, is the kind of place where the neon lights flicker just enough to create a cozy atmosphere. The walls are adorned with vintage memorabilia, each piece telling a story of the countless nights spent laughing with friends. The jukebox in the corner always plays a perfect mix of classic rock and forgotten hits, setting the mood for a night of nostalgia. As I settle onto the well-worn barstool, I can already taste the familiar comfort of a cold beer and the anticipation of a lively evening ahead.
Great place to stop in and grab a quick bite and beer. Properly priced, nice atmosphere.
Fun time

Music plays extremely loud and ruins the neighborhood. Music is always the same and out of date. Several miles of the area can hear the music - including nature preserves and prairie land- you can’t go on walks or have your windows open on the weekend without your house and yard being ruined by this bar. It feels like you can’t escape the sound of the crappy music no matter how far away you are. This places ruins the neighborhood that would potentially be a nice place to live and its extremely loud and outdated music. Ruins the area and makes me want to move far away from this place. I thought this would be a peaceful nice neighborhood and place to live but it’s full of businesses like this one that are so selfish and loud that they don’t care if they ruin the weekend for every single person and animal and nature area within a 5 mile radius. Apparently this makes them money? I can’t imagine how going here and being near this loud noise and smelly bar is enjoyable for anyone.

Looking foe a bathroom, don't worry just follow the urine smell
Was charging $20 cover for a Saturday night to locals to the area. They refused to let anyone in without $20 despite seeing through the window that the bar was only 1/5th full. Terrible terrible service towards town locals.

I’m not one to take the time to leave reviews, but my experiences with this bar have pushed me to the point where I feel obligated to. I am extremely disappointed in the service at the front bc they have acted childish (grown woman with curly dark hair, specifically). Her behavior has repeatedly been irrational and biased. I am 24 years old with a valid driver’s license and been denied entry by her bc we had a group of 6, yet watched her not ID two obviously underage individuals directly before us. Just really frustrated.. multiple of my nights out have been negatively affected by this woman and the security that obeys her orders. Sad.
Extremely unfortunate. The woman with the curly hair that happens to be at the door frequently is quite a piece of work. I attempted to enter the establishment roughly 3-5 times over the course of 2 years, and left before ever entering. She makes the situation feel hostile. Such an angry and power hungry human being. I am well over the age of 21 and this lady loves to find a way to feel strong and overpowering. I would imagine she is the needs husband assuming such disgusting behavior could only be tolerated due to family relations. I would really hope the establishment gives me a phone call or connection to an email. I genuinely would like to go over some things.
Great local place. Saturday dayshift bartender makes great food and is quite the character.
