If we lived close we would definitely eat & drink here all the time & join the "Mug Club"! It is quite small, but does have an outside patio too! Plenty of TV's, and drink options! 1 server who was also the bartender, it was pretty full when we walked in!

There's so much to love about Bootleggers…read more Their pizza is amazing. I'm (mostly) vegetarian and the server recommended their pizza, even though their kitchen was closed. They home-make pizza and freeze some to be available when pizza isn't happening. When the server said "frozen pizza," I wasn't super excited but it was the best cheese pizza! They let me know that you can always call ahead for them to make or keep a specific pizza to buy frozen for carryout or when the pizza kitchen is closed. Occasionally I'll be naughty and get a burger there cause they're just so good. They (almost always) season their burgers really well so it's super flavorful. Their appetizers are fun and unexpected as well. The staff is usually really chill. Donna, the owner, is the sweetest thing ever, and her husband is super sweet and fun but with some rough edges. I admit that the interior could really use a tune up but all their food and hospitality certainly make up for it.

We ordered pizza from here and the cheese "bread". The cheese bread was basically a cheese pizza…read morewith no sauce and unfortunately no taste. That came with a side of sauce. The pizza was cooked around the crust but the center was not cooked. Mushrooms are from a can and toppings were only in the middle. We gave it a try, but I won't be going back. I did get the wild berry salad and fried mushrooms, both of those were better than the pizza.

But I was WRONG, this food hands down best food In Sycamore, and we have visited 2 times. Our server was great, so nice & friendly & also the bartender, she had her hands full! The Crunch Rolls, like giant mozzarella sticks in egg roll form, what a great infusion!

You think "what makes it different than other burgers" I cannot answer that. Our waitress couldn't answer that but we all agreed that these burgers are something else in the best way possible. You HAVE to try the burgers. It's cooked perfectly, so incredibly juice, toppings are flavored so so well. Sauces are fire. I cannot think of one bad thing about this except that I didn't order a second one.

Ah, good old Cub and Spanks…read more.. Now I've only been coming here for the past couple of months, but they fulfill a couple of requirements I require in a bar. 1) cheap drinks. And I don't mean this place is the kind of establishment that serves drinks in red solo cups, they serve them in regular plastic tumbler cups, and they're not bottom shelf garbage liquids either. A Jameson and Ginger ale will set you back a whopping $4. I feel like I'm stealing from the bar when I drink here! This is a good thing. 2) conversational level of crowd noise. This place has never been so loud that I couldn't hear the person I was sitting with, granted, we haven't come here on a Friday or Saturday night, so consider that the asterisk. I prefer a place where u don't need a bullhorn to talk to someone 3 feet away. 3) shuffleboard table. This place will always have a special place in my heart since I popped my shuffleboard cherry here on September 30th after closing out Charter Fitness. However, they've since replaced the old board with a new-fangled board with the prison bars that come up in the middle to avoid free plays, and the table is but crooked. Not that I'm a cheapskate and try to play for free, but the sand gets stuck in the holes so when you start a game, you have to manually push the bars in in order to allow your pucks to slide freely from end to end. I know, I know, #firstworldproblems 3) jukebox. Since the beginning if time, man has attempted to push forth their culture on those around them, and this is the perfect way to do it. You can even control the jukebox from your phone! Well, your smartphone at least. I don't think your Motorola StarTAC is going to help you out here, nor will your Nokia 8200. 4) regulars. You will see the same people day in day out here, whatever day of the week. They may or may not remember that you had a conversation about whatever you had a conversation about, but they're friendly. Or you can chalk it up to this place being a townie bar, but I won't call it that. Come to Cubbies, sidle up to the bar, and maybe drop a buck on a game of shuffleboard or two. If I'm there, say hello and challenge me to a game. I might show you a thing or two. Or not. I've only been playing for a couple if months...

We just started coming here since Corn Fest '17. My family and I were leaving Dekalb the Sunday…read moreafter Corn Fest and heading back to Elgin. NIU is my Alma-Matter so my husband and 2 kids find it a fun and nostalgic weekend. Tony [husband] looked up and found Hink's for the first time on google reviews. He said not one bad review, he's kind of a rainman-savant when it comes to finding good places out of nowhere to eat at. It's a rather small place but I'm glad I played along b/c this place blows away the other larger Sycamore eating places we used-to go to. Now we have put this place on our regular-rotation of places to eat, its our new favorite place to eat and have come by just about every friday or saturday night since Corn Fest. Pizza is fab and Bloody Mary's are about the best you can find [from scratch NO mix!] The two guys on shift work like crazy and handle the whole place, really just two guys! WOW.
