Erik RowleyNovember 5, 2014The perfect dive bar and Chicago atmosphere. The best time to come is around the holiday season, the Lodge decorates their ceilings in a vast array of Christmas splendor.
- Travis TindellDecember 20, 2017This quaint place was lovely and perfectly decorated for Christmas. We had a quiet afternoon pint and it seemed very lively at night.
Shannon JeropkeJuly 30, 2012This is a dive bar that is meets the definition of "Dive Bar" the only down side is that because it's at State and Division this place is PACKED on weekends and there is little to no room to sit.
Marco DoichSeptember 11, 2014I checked in here the first time when FQ wasn't even existing...today I came back after 6 years and I rememberd only the outside of the bar. No memory of inside...it must have been a though night :D- Jade LindApril 14, 2012local beers (312) for $4 on Saturdays, tons of peanuts and also free chili or dogs if you want em
- Josh HowardSeptember 9, 2015The peanut shells? I threw them on the ground. And then I drank good beer.
- Raksha RavikumarFebruary 26, 2014Don't be weird about throwing your peanut shells on the ground. Everyone will mock you.
