A casual vibe, great place for beer and a group happy hour…read more Every time I come here I am amazed at how much fun it is and what a great draft selection they have. Walk in and there are plenty of tables, a couple of gathering areas, standing room narrow tables, an outdoor area, and a room off to the side. I went for the Logboat Dark Matter which I have had before in a can and wanted to try on draft. I enjoyed it very much. You know what is great?! Since they don't have food, you can bring it in yourself. Both times our group has met up here Katie's Pizza is the choice and its in the same parking lot. You can't go wrong with Katie's. Bartender is on the ball and friendly, TV's all around, not too loud so you can talk. Wednesday nights they have Trivia and I stayed for the first round, it was very current for the current event category. Get a pizza from Katie's, go here, have a beer, have fun!

We had 10 and we were able to sit around the long stationary table in the middle of the room. Global Brew Tap House does not charge for the event room.

Bartender was friendly and offered to keep a tab. Lots of parking. Loved this place!

The large tables and at-home-dining-room-style chairs were the perfect spot for our cozy conversations and sharing of snacks. While they do not serve food here, they allow you to bring it in, which was perfect for all of our appetizers and cookies - which paired so well with their Christmasy "Confection" beer. Peanut butter and coconut- wow. Get over here and try it! The bartender was very knowledgeable and willing to pour samples and answer my questions. The main entrance can be a bit difficult to find- look to the left. This was formerly an auto service shop and they made such great use of the space. There is not a ton of parking because of the shape of the building, but the cool vibes and friendly service make up for that. The seating area is the old shop area, while the former lobby is an additional area for games. Sometimes they host food trucks. I could see spending a nice Sunday afternoon on the patio when the weather is nicer!

Just your typical hole in the wall bar in a small town with not much else to do. The location is…read morestrange as in it's an old bank but also kind of unique flair to it now being a bar. They have a limited food selection and a pool table among the tables in the seating area. You can blast your songs on their jukebox but get ready to be over played by locals skipping your songs for some of their crap mumble rap usually. Plenty of other places honestly to check out.

$187 for a family of four to have a breakfast on par with the Holiday Inn Express…read more So disappointing. We were excited to get a reservation for this breakfast experience. Unfortunately it was awful. We were sat on the enclosed porch. We had Christmas music blaring so loud that you had to shout. (Someone later unplugged the speaker.) The temp on the porch reached 79, which was quite uncomfortable. We waited about 45 minutes for our food. And, boy was it awful. Frozen pancakes, frozen biscuits, ok gravy, ok casserole and really good sausage links. No serving utensils for anything - had to use my fork to get gravy. No butter. I will say, the place is decorated really well. Top marks for that. As far as food service - this place has no idea what they're doing. All in all - you'd be better off getting a room at the Hampton Inn. It would be cheaper and the breakfast is better. Guess you have to determine how much you're willing to pay for a photo of your kids with the Grinch. (Which we didn't get because we were so hot and uncomfortable.)

This is the ULTIMATE Christmas bar, and is well worth the drive to New Baden, IL. Not only are…read moretheir cocktails delicious and high quality, but the venue is decked from head to toe. You can tell the owners put a lot of love, care and Christmas cheer into making this place special and memorable. The entrance even has a photo station so you can get adorable group photos easily. This is one of the few Christmas bars that also offers family-friendly brunch in the mornings. I heard the Grinch brunch is amazingly silly and fun for Grinch lovers. Highly recommend requesting Ali as your server as she is an absolute delight and such a happy Elf! Be sure to try the Dubai Chocolate or Peppermint Patty drinks.

While it was festive, the Christmas décor wasn't as extensive as I expected for a pop-up, and the drink menu didn't feel much different from their regular offerings. The food was decent. The Brussels sprouts were a standout, along with the garlic aioli fries. The French dip, however, was disappointing and lacked flavor. Service was excellent, and the bartenders were both friendly and attentive. Drinks and food were quite expensive, but we appreciated receiving a complimentary dessert for the birthday. Overall, it was a nice experience with some highlights, though not something I'd go out of my way for.

Elevated casual atmosphere that is super family friendly. We sat at a table in the main dining area, which also had a large bar with nice plush chairs. Plenty of TVs on mute if you want to check in on a sports game. Service was 11/10 - seamless, well paced, and very friendly staff Food was 4.5/5 - pretzels, brat, schnitzel were all delicious, best schnitzel Ive had outside of Germany Sadly the apple strudel dessert fell flat (seemed like it was on day 3, soggy pastry and a bit chilled like it was pulled from the fridge and microwaved) Plenty of fun German and Austrian classics, amazing beer, full bar with tasty cocktails, winning atmosphere and excellent service. Definitely worth a visit (or two or 10)

Friendly, welcoming and attentive. I was confused on beers so he let me have a mini tasting of light beers. I'm not sure which one I went with but I believe he said either the house helles or schankbier. Either way they both were tart and bland tasting . Stronger than a cider and a beer. I wasn't sold . For food I ordered the smash burger and fries. It came out fresh and hot but it was just ok! The ambiance of the building is what sold me. The elegance and high ceilings i absolutely loved. They also have the brewery inside the building to gawk and gaze at which was pretty neat. Building was well lit and plenty of seating. I attached the days and hrs of operation and a couple of menu options.
