I used to be a believer in Monicals in Illinois. No longer. The old Orchard special at this bar and restaurant is far beyond anything I have ever had I absolutely love it, and this is my third night here. I will be back, because I have already been back. PS, be sure to add the pepperchinis. The entire staff is friendly, the drink prices are fair, the food service is terrific, and they have a varied menu. What more can you ask for. And I don't even bowl.

The first place that he insisted on stopping at was the Illini Union. When we visited, this was a hub of activity. Illini Fest was going on this weekend. We went to the basement, which was home to several restaurants, a recreation center featuring a bowling alley, and a live band playing music. I really enjoyed seeing his old stomping grounds. If you're on the University of Illinois campus, I recommend going to the Illini Union.

It's $34/hour for a lane and for three people, we were able to get two games in, so, about $5.67 per game. Not terrible! We went at 1pm on a Sunday and the place was so big that we had no problem getting a lane, which is nice when you don't have to wait. You can choose between glow or normal bowling, and the folks at the counter and bar were all very nice. I also saw someone cleaning the tables each time a party left, that's awesome! So clean! Thanks for a fun time!
