The people there are the best and you feel at home instantly, and that is exactly what a pub should be. Oh, and they support live music which is key for me. It's a total fixture in the Lemont landscape. To those who care, they know how to pour a pint too.

Had to come to this interesting looking bar in Lemont after going by here. It has a Blatz sign and…read morenot just that but they have cans of it too. Tom's Place is certainly a throwback with the beers of yesteryear. Also it's cheap. You can get wasted on a few bucks it seems. Convenient location in the downtown area. It's next to the Metra station. There's also a ton of other bars around here but this beats all those. About the cheapest place for beers or anything. It's $2 to get Blatz. This is the only place I know that has it around here to be honest. Cheap but it's a good classic beer. It's $5 to get the cheapest cocktails such as Jager and Coke. They have no food except for popcorn. Got cheap beers and cocktails. It's known for the cool sign outside. The cooler thing is they actually have this classic beer, along with cheap ass liquor, and free popcorn, making this a must stop for locals, visitors, or whoever.

Karen is an excellent weekend barkeep specialist. A local bar in its 101st year, from the preserved tin lined interior ceiling to the artisan made antique cabinetry, Tom's Place is a great place to spend some leisure time with friends. The best feature is the draft beer selection is dominated by domestic non-light lagers. Hamms, Schlitz, Old Style and PBR. Plus a terrific halftime charcoal BBQ lunch.

Historical bar area.

In the heart of downtown Lemont.

Good thing about this bar is the drinks are cheap. It's the best thing anyone can say about it…read more Canal Street pub is one of the places in downtown Lemont that's open later. Kind of a rough crowd if we're allowed to be judging. There's lots of vintage crap on the walls so check this place out if you like looking at that kind of stuff. Any okay dive bar needs to have cheap drinks. It has them here. There's a few drafts and lots more in cans, as well as the hard stuff. It's about $5 for a cocktail. Only thing is these are pretty loaded with ice so these aren't strong. As for food, about the only option is a couple bucks for bags of chips. Take some bills with you because this place is cash only. Basic looking from the outside and not as bad as expected on the inside. It's a pretty old school looking place. The payment system is too as they won't accept credit cards, so put a few bills in the purse or wallet.

5 stars for Lemont. Probably 4 stars in Chicago…read more Walked in on a Saturday for an early dinner. It was 5:45, I didn't have a reservation, a they didn't have a table available until 7:30 but there were spots at the bar which they said was full service. My friend and I cozied up to it and ate there. What a surprisingly good experience. The staff was super friendly and that bartenders had great suggestions. I hate when people at the restaurant say everything is good. Not these young ladies. They made some sound suggestions which we followed. French onion soup and the steak frites were both excellent and priced well IMO. They have a really good whiskey/bourbon selection with a few hard to find bottles. I settled on a Blantons neat. They had Pappy, but I'm not wasting money on that anymore. Food came out quickly and we ate and watched a baseball game. The locals at the bar told us about their membership program where I guess for a small mo they fee you get a bottle of wine and a charcuterie plate once a month. Seemed like a pretty good deal. I don't live anywhere near there, but if I did I'd certainly join. In any case, if you live anywhere close, this is definitely a worthwhile restaurant to visit. Seems like there were quite a few singles there as well if you are looking to meet someone. I have no idea what the dating scene is like in Lemont, but this might be a good spot to try.

Nice atmosphere and the music isn't too loud
