A surprisingly good amount of stuff on the menu including plant based. This place may be a dive, but it's better than it looks. A lot of history in this bar. It's known for the cheap ass happy hours. There's also the cheap ass weekly specials. Be sure to check out the list in the bathroom. It's $2 for whiskey on Wednesdays. Among the many cheap drinks. Burgers are most popular among the food options. The food menu also has a lot for vegans. It's $6 for the Impossible Chicken. This comes on a bun topped with lettuce, onions, and pickles. Has to be one of the places you go to when visiting this college town to check out the local flavor. It's on Illinois Avenue at Walnut Street. There's lots to get for meat eaters such as burgers, and there's also healthier options, including many things for vegans and vegetarians.

Best music venue in Carbondale. Hangar 9 has been a long time favorite for both students and…read morelocals. It has a lot more than just music. Good cheap drinks at the bar. The place has a long history in town. A lot of fun has gone on here. It's one of the few good places in town to see live music. This kind of looks like an airplane hangar from the outside. Inside it looks more like a dive bar. Lots of room in here though. Good place even when there's not music, because you can drink at the bar. It's about $4 for the cheapest cocktails. Whiskey and whatever. Good specials on pints and buckets. There's no food but you can bring in stuff. Have to make an update about this business. It has closed. This is sad for the community, it's a place with lots of history, so you'll have to go to some other bar or wherever.

This is normally my go-to bar, but Paige the bartender completely ruined my experience on Saturday…read morenight by being blatantly rude to us. This has happened on multiple occasions- we (two girls) were standing at the bar for at least a few minutes, while she did nothing accept for standing by her monitor and passively aggressively WAVING at us. So, TAUNTING us, basically. It wasn't until the other bartender (Haley I believe) came over and helped us out, and Paige IMMEDIATELY flocked to the men who came up to the bar after us to serve them. I'm not sure if I'm missing a social cue here or something, but Haley already seemed like she was busy with enough customers. So not only were we IGNORED, but were quite literally bullied by one of the bartenders. Terrible service, and it sort of messed up our whole night.

We were shocked when we looked at the menu and there was just fajitas and nacho chips with cheese dip and guacamole, but we're told this place is no longer a Mexican restaurant.. I don't know what to say about that considering the history, the name, and now it's a sports bar? I don't know. I think they're having an identity crisis.

It can get loud at times, but not intolerable. We had Southwest chicken wraps and fries on one late afternoon visit and it was good. I love their fries. The next time we stopped in was a busy Friday night. We each had a steak (filet and ribeye), which is served with side salad and baked potato. The steaks were both more medium rare than medium, but had good flavor and we still enjoyed them. We also had cheese sticks for an appetizer while waiting on the steaks, and those are served with ranch and marinara. They were good too!
