    Trumplican headquarters. Cheap food. They discuss conspiracies. Very annoying location.

    To Go order…read more Hostess was efficient. Kitchen was efficient. Not too loud. High tops, low table and a bar. Chicken sandwich is okay.

    Beers are plentiful in this action packed bar and grill in Champaign. It also has pretty okay food…read morebut people really aren't coming here for it. Aspen Tap House is a great place for watching any games. Has tons of TVs around and there's a party atmosphere usually going on. The prices are okay for portions. A location away from the campus craziness but it still can get loud. It's close to a few hotels, so it's a great place for travelers. The menu has about what one should expect, with shit tons of beers and many of these are local as well. Got a few good ones. It's about $7 a pint. Best we had of these was the White Oak Brewery selection #CharmingAF. This was refreshing and smooth. It's about $12 for the cheapest burgers. We each got the Black Bean Burger, which comes with guacamole, pico de gallo, and sour cream but I left off the last one. Also gets a choice of a side, so okay value for it. I got it with a salad. A lot of other meaty options available. They have tacos and the Impossible meat is an option. For sure it pretty much seems like Applebee's or some generic polished sports bar and grill but it's okay to be honest. It's located on Neil Street to the south of the campus stuff. There's meaty things as well as options for vegans and vegetarians.

    Not terrible. I went in as it was local to me and I needed a quick bite. The atmosphere was nice. A…read moresmall town bar, nice and clean. I came in for a to-go meal. The bartender was also the wait staff, so he seemed less than thrilled serving someone who wasn't sitting down and drinking a tab into unafordability. Not the most welcoming person, and I'd assume most of the clientele were locals, me obviously not one and I felt that way. I looked at the menu and chose the "fried bologna" sandwich. Fast forward to the sandwich. I will mention again, I got it to-go. I got home and opened it up. Was it bologna? Yes. Was it a sandwich? Yes. Was it "fried"? No. I have eaten fried bologna sandwiches at home and from Arizona to here and every state in between. It was barely browned. Real fried bologna sandwiches are typically cooked to the edge of the meat becoming black. It brings out all of the great flavors bologna offers. Now, was it good? It was edible. It was good enough and I ate every bite. Would I order it again? Not likely. If I am in that area again and hungry, I'd stop in again.

    Came in for the moonshine flights that we have heard so much about and discovered a nice food menu…read moreand decided to give it a try and pleasantly surprised by the food selection and overall quality of our meal We arrived there shortly after they opened and place was very unassuming on the outside but has a lot of spaces for groups of people we entered the bar area which also had low tables to choose from we had menus at the table which was clean and seating was comfortable we saw a few menus and realized that there was also a food option which was great since we were in the mood for something We ordered flights of moonshine which we thought was a very large selection and hard to choose only 4 so we got a few flights and we were feeling pretty good at that point and needed something to eat and we started an order of a hot chicken wrap which was very good and a little bit of kick topping it off with the sweet crispy sweet potato fries that paired perfectly with the wrap. I got the trio open face sandwich which I truly enjoyed but took it apart to experience each layer of meat on this meal the coleslaw was creamy and crunchy, the pulled pork was smoked perfectly and tender as is next the beef brisket was smoked nicely and fork tender and at the bottom was the andouille sausage with a little spice and very tasty all together a great meal our server was also the bartender since it had just opened but he was on top of everything going on and our drinks came out quick and so did our meal so we were not ready for the meal was still enjoying our moonshine flights Definitely will be back to enjoy another day out at Smoke and shine
