I feel really bad rating this bar so low especially when there are like 7 bars on the "strip" in…read morePlatteville. But honesty is necessary. What I did like about Players was that there was plenty of seating, pool tables, and a long bar. What I didn't like.... the music was absolutely horrible, the bathrooms were very gross, they offered free drinks and they literally tasted like plastic. I don't know how it's possible...but it happened. Also for attempting to be a "dance club" the floor is tiny with one little lonely pole in the far corner. SO it was incredibly awkward when no one was on the dance floor because everyone was trying to somehow fit on the pole... just overall not a great experience.

Found this basic looking bar in Galena. Gold Room is a small place with a bar and a few tables and…read morenot much else to be honest. They have a couple TVs so you can watch games or whatever. A lot of the basic beverages. There's beers on tap as well as mixers. Chill place when nothing is going on around. It's also not that crowded when other places are full. The only thing on the menu here is alcoholic beverages which is a good thing. All one needs to have fun. It's about $6 for a basic cocktail like whiskey mixed with Coke or whatever. Can also bring things in. There's a lot of close by restaurants. Got the basic drinks like beer and cheap cocktails. It's open later than most places around here. They have grill in the name but no food so eat before or bring in something from wherever.

It's beyond my capabilities to adequately describe the place. It's a historic landmark with remarkable charm. But perhaps it's most unique and delightful feature is the proprietor, he is a most charming and charismatic person.

I recommend bringing a lawn chair to sit on. They do have a few stadium style seats on the right side but it's recommend to have your own. There is one thing I want to say, please be respectful and bring a small chair, there is limited seating and it's flat. I've been a few times and there is always someone with an obnoxiously oversized chair that makes it hard for people behind them to see. Before the show you can get delicious farm fresh food from Enos Farm. I look forward to their tacos every show! You can also enjoy a cold beer, or wine, but make sure to bring cash as its cash only and no ATM on site. We always have a great time and are loo forward to going back each year!

It is hard to beat the local flavor of small Midwest towns and this didn't disappoint. Grilled bun was a nice touch and the bacon had an excellent smoke. Bun collapsed quickly under the pressure of getting a 3/4-pound patty in my mouth but it was worth it. This is a three-napkin burger that will bring me back. The Gangster sauce topped it off and I wouldn't have dreamed of insulting it with ketchup or mustard. A great breakfast was ordered by my wife so don't forget to use the whole menu. What you look for in a local watering hole is drink variety, good food and great service with tons of smiles. This one has it all. Thanks Maddie!
