I actually like this place when I'm on campus. It's quiet with good food and some different beer choices. It was a nice surprise from the norm on campus. Check it out!

This is the strangest bar I've ever been in. It's dead quiet. Everyone is studying. There are only 8 draft beers to drink and they are all really unusual flavors. I feel like you can skip this place unless you are a student or if you are stuck on the Purdue campus.

Favorite bar on campus for a casual beer

Lousy service and a rather poor beer selection.

First thing: this is one of the only beer places I've been in this town where the beer is actually cold and the glasses are actually clean. For a taproom on campus, this place is pretty great. $5 beers on tap served by friendly and attentive staff. They have 8-10 beers on tap, and a nice range of flavors (kombucha to stout) and a few bottles, and some wine as well. Food comes from a place called Pappy's next door. I got a Violet Beauregard, brewed by Crasian, which was a nice light beer with a little bit of tart/fruity flavor.

The food menu here is limited but the brews are nice! I thought that all of the dining options in the building were pretty cool but having a casual spot dedicated to socializing over some beers or wines. Nice place to wind down after a conference or lengthy meeting.

Been here for several PSUB events. Good experience. Although, sometimes I wish they had more space. In general, it's good.

It is an amazing please to have a drink, work in an assignment or be part of the events they have some days after 5pm.

Nice place to do homework or hang out with friends. Have a good variety of beers but a little pricey

Unusually friendly service at the bar the night we were there. They had a nice selection of local beers, and they were willing to let us take over around half the restaurant for a semi-private event. We ordered pizza from the Italian restaurant in the cafeteria down the hall, which was convenient.

What a great hidden gem. Catch the game and enjoy your favorite beverage. Ask for bartender Matt. He is really a cool dude. Come in and chill.

Usually a quiet place to grab a local beer and get work done. Plenty of booths and tables. Connected to Pappys for food.
