This bar is a little far for me but it was worth it! Staff was kind, food was excellent! Will definitely be coming here more in the warmer months!

I walked from Mavericks to Sideouts & I was looking for my inhaler which I found in my purse but the the door security guys that were working were FANTASTIC and calm. They even kept me calm which was different. I want to send a BIG THANK YOU to the guys worked the door on Saturday December 14th... Thank you so much. I really appreciate it that you did not turn me away like Mavericks did. I made it home safe..

To have a great spinach and artichoke dip good ribs. The adult mac and cheese is delish. Recommend throwing some buffalo chickens on top of that. Services fast and friendly

Found this little gem while cruising through Island lake IL, 8 sand volleyball courts, bowling alley, arcade, live music and really good tavern style pizza.

Great place to see bands outside in the summer! Food is fantastic. Try the pizza!

Worst Experience Ever! I bought 2 barstool seets a week before the AC/DC and Led Zeppelin show. The seats were great. Right on the rail. They were advertised as the best seats in the house. I paid $55 for 2 seats. The problem was that guys kept coming up to the rail and standing right next to me and my girl in our seats. I had to ask 5 guys to leave during Led Zeppelin. None of them were happy about it and gave me a hard time about it. We went to the bathroom between bands and when we came back or chairs were gone. Now we have to stand for the headliner. We stayed for 5 songs. During that time I had to chase 4 more guys out of our "section". One guy was very aggressive and I thought we were going to get in a fight. He kept hassling us and wouldn't leave us alone. We finally left. I paid more for the seats than I paid at the bar. "Worst Seats In The House". I'll never go back and I recommend staying away unless you want to pay a lot for seats for someone else and get threatened with physical abuse on a Saturday Night Date Night. Worst experience ever!

Love seeing bands there and have seen many over the years. My only issue is with “Ticketweb” and I plan to speak personally to a manager about my experience on 8/24/24.
