Just moved to Bloomington from Wisconsin, and Alley Bar has been really welcoming. I'm sure all the bartenders are amazing but I've met Austin and Obie a few times and they're so fun! Thanks guys!

Austin was the best bartender, he was so knowledgeable and speedy. DEFINITELY will be coming back for future beers.

Here for a week and I have been here most nights. Great little locals bar, not a college bar for the most part. Bartenders freindly and the local as are accepting of “outsiders” as well. Great prices as well.

Missed connection: I was the bar patron slamming PBRs and Jameson shots. You were the bartender that looked like Paul Bunyan with galaxies in his blue eyes. I will go to no other bar in this town until I find you again.

Small, really small, bar. Bartender was attentive, and the drinks were good. Place gets pretty packed later in the afternoon. Felt like a locals bar.

Greeat place and great people. (Does not offer food but the beer is always cold)
The worst bar i have ever been to in my life. The bartenders were so rude - truly have never interacted with such nasty people before.

Ginger red beard Paul Bunyan bartender Ask me to leave after 2 hours of being there and spending a lot of money and buying regulars drinks I was asked to leave because someone handed me their ID because I was standing by the front door and he thought I was the bouncer so I played it off looked at their ID and they came in they were older then me im 45 but anyway I think Paul Bunyan seen me talking to a few ladies and started to feel some type of way, and asked me to leave I was having a blast up until he asked me to leave the premises This could have been a regular thing this bar could have made a little bit more money in the future off of me because I was surely having a good time but it's no thing but a chicken wang there are more watering holes in this town. ✌️

Best Michelob bottles this side of the Mississippi. Austin is exceptional at opening them.
