    Found this bar in Waukegan with cheap beers. It has pretty much drinks and not really much good in…read morethe way of food. North Avenue Tap ironically has more beers in bottles and cans if one can believe that. Mostly there's a few regulars in here. The place may look kind of ramshackle, but it's charming in its own way you can say. A neighborhood watering hole is a good way to describe it. It's pretty basic with about what you expect as far as atmosphere and what people are ordering. There's pretty much the big brands, and they only have a few of these on tap. A lot more in bottles and cans. It's about $3 for a tallboy of Old Style. As for the food, it's basic greasy stuff if they even have anything. There's a fryer and grill, but we have never seen these used. I wouldn't trust eating anything here anyway. That's okay if they just keep it all off. Chill place to have beers. It's obviously located on North Avenue, with two entrances. They have things like taco nights, and outside there's fun things like cornhole when it gets warmer.

    We went to the North Avenue bar and grill in Waukegan because my wife did volunteer work with the…read morecook. Did not start off very good. I ordered a Miller Lite and barkeeper said she was having problems with the Miller handle and I said ok and ordered a Bud Light and she comes to the table with a bottle of Miller Lite. I asked her to please turn down the volume of the juke box which she did for one song. It was turned up to the original setting. Finally, we get our food and the volume was turned up about twice as loud. I took my sandwich and ate it outside. My wife told me that a lot of the patrons were complaining but the sound was not lowered. To the owners of this bar, we will not be back. This happened on Thursday, April 17 right at the shift change at about 6:00 pm.
