October 8, 2025 Can't argue with my first review. Been here 3 times now.
Had The Mariner, delicious!
June 2025 First, this is NOT an appropriate place for kids, and you'll be asked to leave if you bring them, this is an old style BAR. Adults only.
My burger was delicious and the staff was friendly! Sorry I started eating it first. Greasy and great! Full of beef and gluten.
If you love nostalgia and don't mind the smell of old smoke and a hint of pee, scratched paint and air vents hanging from straps, you'll love this place. It's like going back to the 60s or 70s!
Be sure to enjoy the vintage Popeye sign from the 50's advertising a hamburger for 10¢!
If not you probably should avoid it.
This place leans into letting people self-select to not be here. But in my opinion that just means it has an unapologetic personality.
I am NOT recommending this place for the sub 40 crowd, you probably won't like it and the regular won't feel bad about that. If you don't mind stepping out of your comfort zone in a big way, try it. If not they won't miss you.

We love this hole in the wall place. This is our second time here. We came 2 years ago and decided to come back cause the food and atmosphere is amazing before a ND game. We will be back in 2 years. Best burger by far.

We stopped by on our way through. The atmosphere was great and the food did NOT disappoint. I would come back again just for the onion rings alone. Waitress was cute as a button. 10/10 would stop here again!😊

Great service, drinks are very reasonable. Burgers were some of the best I've had. Cool place for a drink and catch up with old friends.

Historic bar with memorabilia. Friendly bartenders and reasonable prices. Good food and burgers!
A small neighborhood bar and grill. We sat at the bar. Got into some fun conversations with the locals. We had a beer and a meal. The food was good, typical bar and grill food. But I had to try the Hungarian gulyas. It was big pieces of potatoes, meat( i think chuck roast), in paprika forward broth. It came with rye bread, to soak up the broth. It was good, and I didn't really know what to expect. My wife had a burger and fries. In a post covid world, it's hard to find a restaurant that's open late. Their grill of open late. It was what we needed as we were on the road until late.

Hidden gem. Genuine friendly greetings. Authentic atmosphere. Food made with love. Drinks on point. Always a perfect pour.
Don’t forget to tip your bartender.
There’s counter where alcoholic beverages are served, aka a bar so bring valid ID. You will get carded. Be thankful they care : )

This is truly one of my favorite hidden gems in South Bend. Anytime I have friends in town, I have to take them here. They have some of the best burgers in town. You can always count on a game to be on the tv and the beer to be ice cold. I highly recommend going in on a Tuesday and ordering the Becky burger. You won’t be disappointed!!
A great local spot with the best burgers around.
