Gets better when it brings in the regulars who hang around here. The crazy drunk boaters help to liven it up when it gets later. After walking around Channahon State Park, we were tired and came here. It's located close to the park. This is also located along the frontage road next to Interstate 55, so you hear the noise of all the traffic. It basically has just things to drink. Sometimes they have basic bar food like chips and wings. It's about $5 for the cheapest cocktail. The food menu pretty much sucks. It's really not much other than greasy chips. Try some in the bag because these are better to be honest. Gets lots of crazy ass boaters. It's conveniently located next to the marina. The bar also has a few slots.

Paige is one of the main reasons I keep coming back. She's always friendly, bubbly, and makes everyone feel welcome the second they walk in. Not to take anything away from the rest of the staff because everyone here has been fantastic, but I probably interact with Paige the most because of the times I usually stop in. One thing I really love about this place is the look and feel of it. The American flag display is an awesome touch, and the whole bar has a modern, clean, well-kept vibe that's hard to find these days. It honestly stands out as one of the nicest bars I've been to in a long time. And on top of all that, the food is absolutely amazing. Great staff, great atmosphere, great food--this place has it all. Highly recommend checking it out.

Hot and fresh. Only problem is that the cheese sauce has a film and was like water. It was scorching hot though. The burger was good sized, hot, and juicy. I wish that they offered to cook it to a temp other than mid-well. Over all, this place is fine. Nothing fancy, you get what you pay for. If I were in town again, I'd stop in again. Just a note. They charge a 3% surcharge if you pay by credit card. It's not noted anywhere with signage. It's not on the menu in fine print. It shows up on your bill. I've heard people say that "if you can't afford to tip, don't eat out. Well if you have to charge people a surcharge to pay by credit card, then don't open a restaurant. If you are going to do that, then post it on the menu and at the front counter so people know.

I looked over the menu and I was in a chicken mood but didn't order their wings. I chose the Hilltopper, a grilled chicken sandwich with bacon and cheese. For some reason it comes on Texas toast while nearly all other sandwiches come on ciabatta or brioche. I switched to brioche. I chose the fresh cut fries as a side dish. When the sandwich comes out, I'm immediately questioning if I ordered the right dish. I wasn't impressed. There are no condiments and no LTO either, just chicken bacon, cheese and pickles, on a dry bun. The fries were clearly not fresh cut, as they looked to be similar to Wendy's. The taste of the sandwich is OK, mainly because of the cajun spices. While my colleagues enjoyed their food, selection is sort of limited here if you're avoiding fried foods, otherwise I would have selected the wings which they're sort of famous for.
