I worked there in 1981-1983! Great people and memories. I gave Bob “the Piano tuner who was blind a ride in and around Pott County II on my dirt bike. Sweeney and his dog “Duffy” who sat at the bar. God bless Tony!

The LOU has had it's highs and lows over the MANY YEARS it has been the best hang out bar in Manhappiness, but it appears to need somebody to rescue it NOW! Service is terrible, even on a game day with nobody else in the bar. The bartender was brushing his teeth and applying deodorant behind the bar, and the bathrooms were so nasty the flies went outside. SOMEBODY SAVE THE LOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I came here for game day, and I have to say so many people was here! Lots of fun and nice drinks! Suan was the BOMB! As the only bartender that night she killed it! She was fun to talk to, and was great at drinks! The next time I come I'll always ask for a mystery drink from her!

Really wish RCPD could enforce more noise ordinances , ever since they completed the 2b apartments off of 12th , the bass from this establishment carries alot further. Can't tell you how much sleep I've lost because of this.

Just went into this bar and was completely ghosted? The bartender completely ignored me for 6 minutes and served several people behind me at the bar. This was the first time I have ever experienced this. It was super slow when I walked in and I sat at the bar. Still stunned she did this. During post COVID this surprised me.
I'll tell ya what, there's absolutely no better bar this side of the Mississippi. The Lou is my go to spot every time I'm back in Manhattan. Pinball, good tunes, and the coldest beer you've ever tasted are what you're going to find when you visit. Oh and how could I forget their pickled eggs? So good. Anyway give it a shot, you'll be glad you did.

Incredible dive bar with the best people! Best deals for drinks and a juke box that provides an array of musical taste. Side note...best water in Aggieville!

I've been tipping beers back in this place for 25 years, off and on, when I get to Manhattan. I had to look around tonight to make sure I hadn't been abducted by aliens and dropped in Detroit. Rap blasting, check. No clean glasses for a tap beer, check. Bar tender in a KU sweatshirt w a black eye, check. The black eye made me smile. When did they decorate the place w dollar bills? I appreciate a good dive bar more than any other person, but the lou is definitely in the dump category now. What a shame. I'm glad my old man isn't here to see it.
