“I heard good things about the food but I couldn't try it because it's 35 and up. Wish they had a take out option or sum. Lowkey mad ASL cuz they kicked my ass out. My fat ass just wanted to eat. I give em stars cuz the security was polite.“

“As soon as you walk in the door you realize that it’s not a bar - it’s a comfortable shoe, a true neighborhood joint that is congenial and friendly. Love the signs such as Hamns Beer $ 3 every day and Chicago sports photos on the walls; excellent tavern style pizza ! Love the history behind the building It’s a classic that reminds of the bars in my hood on the Southside of Chicago“

“great food and drinks reasonably priced. the only Dean is awesome and a big supporter of local music“

“Great Place. Love the food and great service.“

“After asking a bartender to remake an order, we were verbally and physically assaulted by the bar's manager/owner and multiple patrons of the bar. Physically dragged out of the bar, and then my gf was punched in the face twice by the manager. Then he and multiple other men punched and kicked me, knocking one of my teeth out. At no point did we put hands on any of these people, but they thought attacking us was OK. We spent the night in the ER and both have head and neck injuries. Also punched a girl in her face twice busting her lip open horrible that this place allows men to beat up a woman“

“Delicious wings probably the best I’ve had anywhere“

“Our band played at Whiskey River on a Friday and we had dinner and drinks there beforehand. Food was excellent, staff was awesome and very welcoming. Really cool crowd with a noticeably wide age range, everyone had a good time.“

“good place and amazing music.“

“Lorena the best bartender. The sweetest 🥰🥰“

“A dive bar? With Bourbon County on tap? Rabbits could be Moe's tavern right out of the Simpsons, but don't let that fool you. No Duff's here, but there is always a better than average and sometimes exceptional tap lineup for beer geeks. But don't let the secret out that you can get the full BCBS experience here in the fall without the crowd.“

“Buen ambiente y buen servicio.“

“Es un lugar muy agradable de ambiente acogedor y buen ambiente.“

“Had a great time here celebrating my 50th bday!“

“Very nice place. Great service,respectful bartenders..“

“Romantic environment, feel warm and cozy“

“Fantastic experience. Food was delicious. We will definitely be coming back.“

“Great neighborhood dive bar; good prices, great pub food, pool table, juke box, decent craft beer selection, outdoor seating area, nice mix of clientele. Highly recommend the grilled chicken sandwich, burgers, fried mushrooms and pierogi's with sour cream.

Parking: Free Street parking, never had an issue. You can park across the street in the bank parking lot when it's closed, don't park there when the bank is open!“

“I have been coming to this location for about two years now; the service is excellent, and the music is good. It's a huge parking lot, and the food is incredible. I love the wings and the burgers. Guilty to say we stay there for hours. There is a pool table and, outside area... I love the people that work there always kind.“

“Great place to eat and drink. And have one of our meetings in the backroom.“

“Love outdoor options in the summer. Even with a crazy weekend of 56 Music Fix everything was on point with food and service. I loved seeing Chris step in and help anywhere and everywhere he needed to.“

“Chrissy is Awesome and simply the BEST“

“Love this place - cozy neighborhood sports bar atmosphere with truly excellent food, a great rotating beer menu, and very reasonable prices. There are often games or music on, but never so loud that you can't have a conversation. All of the food we've tried has been delicious! Never once had a bad dish or experience! We stopped in on a whim for lunch and quickly became regulars after tasting the burgers, rustic potato salad, and brussel sprouts. There are different daily food specials and a surprising list of high-end options (e.g. Wagyu beef burgers, lamb dip, Mediterranean mushroom sandwich) for such a casual setting. The staff is great, the chef is on point, the beers are frosty, and the meatloaf dinner on Thursday is worth a special visit. If you're looking for a relaxed place to have a great meal, a cold drink, and a conversation, I can't recommend the Old School Tavern enough.

Kid-friendliness: Seen many families there with babies and kids

Wheelchair accessibility: There are regular customers who are wheelchair users, there is a back entrance with easy access and the staff is very helpful“

“The service is exceptional and the food is amazing! 👏“

“Hiding gem to some but definitely a great time. Cool people, great food and very friendly neighborhood bar. Something to do every night.“

“I had the BEST burger here! They even approved my special request, which was a lettuce wrapped burger because I can’t have the bread! I highly recommend this restaurant because their food is amazing and the atmosphere is awesome! Great service and amazing staff! 🍔 5 stars!!! ⭐️🤩“

“Fun times, good people, drama free.“

“Z is an awesome cook & bartender!!! I highly recommend the Greek Fries & Chicken Panini. He is super nice jack of all trades. He deserves a big bonus!!!!“

“Great Local Gem!! Love how they added karaoke on Wednesday.“

“What can I say about SandTrap! They have daily specials, they’re kid friendly, The bartenders create tasty drinks, their Thursday night Karaoke Rocks, and their menu is priced for anyone’s pocket. If they have special events, it’s always nicely decorated and you control your own music! Try the shotski for 4 drinkers!! If it’s too low key for your party, ask the bartender to spice it up…pump up the volume! You will have a great time!! Go check them out!!! They are accommodating to their customers!“

“My neighborhood meeting place. Great food, drinks, people, and atmosphere“

“Great Bar Great owner great bartenders“

“The food is amazing and the staff is the best! Highly recommend!“

“Love this place, not enough to move to Illinois but if I did, I would be a regular. Thanks to our server/bartender for a great afternoon. We will be back when next in the area.“

“Great local bar with live DJ and other acts a fair amount of the time. Come to experience friendly staff and a cozy feel. Open mics and karaoke weekly are especially fun.“

“great food, awesome atmosphere, and service was spot on. I'll definitely be back.“

“Excellent food and our server, Megan, was best we've had in ages!“

“Nice place, great prices.“

“They recently updated their menu I noticed pasta fried catfish and one day I even noticed a seafood boil coming from the kitchen 🤷🏽‍♂️🥳👏“

“Better than expected. I enjoyed the jalapeno cheddar brat and my daughter loved the pretzel and the cheese filled polish sausage.Beer selection, though limited and bottle only, included some European beers which went well with the food.It's more of a gambling facility than a restaurant, but it was good for what it was.Service was excellent and prices were half off when we went so it was quite inexpensive which provided great value for what we got.“

“First let me start by saying, I was pleasantly surprised to find Noreen working there. Noreen previously worked at Tipsy Goat, where our group enjoyed her pleasant attitude and great service. We frequented the establishment mainly for the service. I'm presently spreading the word that she is now there. Food is simple, but good. Burgers, pizza, chicken and appetizers. Probably wouldn't have gone there , ordinarily, but my Sis lives in area and I was getting car serviced at All Auto Suburban, so wanted nearby. As I said“

“My go-to local. Great staff and uniquely cool and welcoming vibe. Attracts mostly folks in 30's and older. Nice pool table and the enclosed patio is good for smokers. All in all a great place to check out for some drinks and laughs.“

“So glad to find this place! They had me at "full vegan menu."

Comfortable seating, the place is spotlessly clean, and our server was wonderful (been there several times). The food is fantastic. Buffalo chicken 'wich was amazing. Spicy enough but they don't hit you over the head with it. The Italian meatball 'which is also great. The onion rings are the *best*. It seems like onion rings are always crispy on the outside but slimy on the inside, but these are 100% crispy and bite-able all the way through.

The Impossible burger is huge. Generous portions of everything, and made just right.

I've had two different local (Lyons) beers from the tap, both were excellent. So many great beers to choose from!

Seems like the perfect place to just get a drink at the bar, too.

This will definitely be a regular spot for us.

Vegetarian options: 100% full vegan menu available, no asking or searching. Yay!“

“It's the perfect dive bar with great food (big portions), best French fries and chicken wings around!, friendly customers, and staff. Family owned place who really cater to their customers and know most of the customers by name. There's a pool table, 6 TVs, and a jukebox which is perfect for hanging out and having a few shots and/or beers on the cheap. Party packages are inexpensive too and they have a nice big dining room for birthdays and group gatherings. (On Wednesday's they have drink specials.) *Cheers*“
