Hang Loose was a good experience when I visited last Friday after work at around 4:30. My husband…read morehad been there twice before and enjoyed it and wanted me to visit. I really enjoyed the tasty Buffalo wings and the macaroni and cheese bites. Husband ordered the chicken tenders and he made it a point to let me know that they use actual real chicken- not processed- minced- pre shaped stuff. (I recently came off of a bad experience with that elsewhere). The bar is clean- lots of memorabilia and fun decor. The place is much nicer on the inside than it appears. There is a second bar area that sells beer to go. It's also much bigger than it appears to be. The menu has a little bit of everything and the prices are extremely reasonable. I ordered club soda and cranberry though and it was flat. I didn't mention it to the bartender so there was no opportunity to fix it. I would definitely go back.

Was offered samples of two tap beers and one line was vinegary, meaning not a clean tap line. Had an okay visit with room for lots of improvement, I love my dive bars too.

Really satisfied our craving…read more Lovely Lindsay was taking care of bar and table customers and it turned out to be pretty jumping when we went in! The music was playing vintage 1970's songs and it was a great atmosphere. I finally got a chance to try the food and I ordered a 3$ cheeseburger. I wasn't expecting much for 3 dollars -but- I was wrong! The Wabash burgers tasted very homemade and looked hand formed. Sorry!! No picture because it was that damned tasty! I like how the burger was served too- wrapped in checkered paper. By the way?! 2 dollar burgers and 3 dollar cheeseburgers ala cart is not a special folks, it's an every day price! We met the owner, Dave and were chatting because we have been in the business ourselves. The owner has the right idea! Keep it simple- keep it tasty- keep it affordable. I would definitely go back and I plan to bring my family in when they come to visit. Also interesting- per Dave- this has operated as a bar since 1920 and that's pretty impressive. Husband had 3 beers- I had two cranberry and club sodas- we had two orders of wings and two burgers at an astounding price of just shy of 25$. Mind Blowing!! In the summer there will be outdoor dining and live music on the patio. Plus there's always lots of ample parking!

She (Christy) insulted my girlfriend several times and told me to "f-off" when I told her that was not cool. The fake big breasted tatted loud mouth skank should not be serving people. Freddy's must be great when she is not there. Also, the Station Restaurant was nice.

The bartender was just the right mix and small talk and leave you alone and put out stellar looking cocktails (and the one I had had me wanting another). They're definitely a step up from your standards while still being approachable for the less adventurous. We had a salad and a burger and both left me wanting to try more varieties of each. The broccoli salad was great, too. I like the decor and friendly ambiance. This place is definitely worth giving it a try (and is great if you're coming in from out of town and catching a show at The Stitch)! No notes, just leaving happy and satisfied. Thanks to the crew working tonight!

My family and I ordered four different kinds of burgers with fries, and it was extremely filling and satisfying. There was a lot of fries--almost too much to finish. The restaurant was cute and a little cold, but the staff were really friendly and accommodating. It's my brother's favorite place in the area.

So we got that and it was more than we could eat after having some Brussels for an appetizer that we had to finish because they were fried to absolute perfection ! Best restaurant/bar 10 outta 10 !

Had a good flavor. Son ordered a bacon cheese burger on a grilled cheese, wife had the peach vidalia burger, I had the cheese steak. Burgers were good, seemed to be hand made patties, fries were not fresh cut. Cheese Steak was nothing special, small in size compared to other establishments. Total cost $50, not including tip. Place was very crowded when we got there, and by the time we got our food, it was almost empty. Atmosphere is nice, it does get loud due to its small size.
