Ok, so I came here based on that I love a good tiki bar, walked in and knew it's a dive bar. That's…read morecool cuz I love those too! I did ask the bartender if she could make a zombie and got a reply of what the heck is that? Still cool. I'll take a beer. It's definitely a locals bar, all good. But if you are walking in solo and not from the area, this isn't the place for you. I tried to ask the bartenders name, something I do so when I go back etc and maybe to have a conversation, they were more interested in getting back to the regulars and chat. I did get it, but it was just a weird exchange. All in all, service was just fine, I got my cold beers timely as I had a few before moshing to another spot, but if I want to sit and drink alone I can do that at the hotel. If you are with a friend go in and party on! I'm really only dinging because the name is misleading. I'm guessing that was the original intention and the area just doesn't want that and so it's a shift. It's all good, just different.

They are a real hidden gem for foodies in Northwest Indiana, it's not your typical bar food. Their birria tacos and smash burgers are amazing, and they started having smoked wings on the menu that are so good. They also make their own biscuits and gravy. The quality isn't something you'd expect from the nightlife scene, it's the best kept secret in the CP Square right now.

This is hands down, our favorite restaurant/bar. Consistently great, has an old style pub feel, and…read moreis always decorated beautifully and on theme seasonally. We also love the rotation of drinks and foods each month. It gives us a new reason to come back that keeps it fresh and interesting. We know there is a wait to get in at happy hour and dinner time so we check in and walk down to Martony's for a drink and some Golden Tee while we wait to be called. It's 21 and over due to Indiana law and the size of the space. It makes it a special night for just us though and it's also turned into a tradition to bring our older kids for a really fun evening out when they turn 21. I do wish they would bring back the caprese sandwich as a regular item on the menu. It was my favorite as a lunch time option. And I hope they NEVER remove the Dilly Dally Dip because omg it's the best spinach dip we have ever had in our lives.

I highly recommend this restaurant.

We went around 530, and the place was busy. It got super busy as dinner time rolled around. We sat at the bar and the greeted by the bartender. We ordered two drinks and two entrees to share. I had the Reyka and the Shrimp Étouffée (featured special). My husband ordered the Bedarra Old Fashioned and the Southern Fried Chicken. Our drinks were phenomenal. The presentation of mine was not what I expected. Loved the aesthetics! The Shrimp Étouffée was not one of our favorites. Shrimp was cooked to perfection but the rice and sauce ok, it was bland. The southern fried chicken was really good. It was flavorful and juicy. Definitely coming back when our daughter plays out there again. Nice place to grab a drink and a quick bite.

This comes out in service to customers. The food still is acceptable but the failure to be nice and friendly has made the experience an abject failure.

There has always been an off odor here but can be overlooked if all else is good.

I ordered an American staple, a burger with fries. The burger was juicy, well seasoned, and topped with crispy bacon. The bun was soft and held everything together without falling apart. The fries were crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and paired well with the burger. A great spot for a laid-back meal with family or friends.

Culinary Misfits should not be confused with Culinary Dropout, as their food and drinks are…read moredifferent, though the prices are similar. This cute restaurant is located in Crown Point, IN, and it's best to use GPS to avoid getting lost. The venue is nice and perfect for photos, with plenty of space. The bar has a lively atmosphere, and the food is good, with large portions. I ordered the Classic Smashburger and substituted the protein for an Impossible Burger. I expected to receive two patties since I had to pay an additional $4.00. While it's my choice to be a pescatarian, I still think that an extra $4.00 for a single patty is excessive, both here and at any restaurant. This brought the price of my burger from $18.00 to $22.00, which reflects the current costs of dining out. Overall, our server was really nice and accommodating. She was patient with us as we decided on what to order and even shared her favorite dishes, which helped us make our decisions. The others in my party ordered a Mushroom & Swiss Smashburger and a Tuscan Turkey Sandwich. I must say, the turkey sandwich (Shaved Oven Roasted Turkey) had so much turkey on it that it could have fed us for Thanksgiving, but we weren't complaining! It was generous, and she happily took home the leftovers. The drink we had was blah, it had peach deep eddy's, elderflower liqueur (which I love), citrus and a few other ingredients. I'll pass on that the next time, I think it had too much elderflower and not enough peach. We all enjoyed our food and the ambiance of the restaurant. We will definitely return when we are in the area, and I will be sure to recommend this place to my friends who live nearby. I would also consider throwing a small b-day celebration upstairs in the lounge. Thank you, Culinary Misfits, for a great lunch!

It's an interesting setup... the arcade is divided between two buildings and one of the buildings (with the party room and bar) has a giant step up to get in. No idea what the bar looked like because it was behind a solid door. Bathrooms were clean. Prices were reasonable and there was a great deal of snacks available for purchase. (Redbull, Gatorade, and celcius were drink options). Smaller arcade but the games were fun for our 4 year old., good variety. Mini golf was a nice clean course with some unique holes that challenged us. The only thing that sucked was that at least two of the holes were completely flooded from earlier rain. Despite there not being a drain system there and all of the holes being full of water, we still enjoyed the course, and our son won a free game on the 18th hole. FYI- the mini golf course is also not wheelchair friendly.
