    The Fish and Chips is fantastic! The Fish is a nice large filet, not strips which is a bonus in my book.

    This place has Pool, darts, off track betting, video games, outdoor volleyball, and more TV's than you could ever know what to do with. Enough said!

    Please don't get the queso dip, I beg you. Not sure what's in it, but it doesn't look like cheese...more like orange slime.

    Watch your check for auto-gratuity. Sometimes the waitresses assume people don't know how to tip.

    This place has changed for the worst. Increased prices, no refills. Most of the parking lot is empty for the Bears game. I wonder why?

    I would not recommend going here. It's overpriced and just filled with overgrown frat boys thinking they are still in their 20s. This place is not worth a minute of your time.
