Down to Earth biker bar. Been a landmark among local bikers for decades. If you're expecting some fancy nouveau riche rider destination spot, move along this ain't your place.
Amazing dive bar where you can be yourself and be accepted. Great regulars and staff!!! Free pool Mondays is so much fun!
Here because Natasha Leggero said to read the colorful reviews!!! Hope she boosted your business guys!!! So funny!!! Wish I were closer, id visit for sure!
This is a great blue collar dive bar in Rockford that caters to bikers, where a good time can always be found. While I don't drink much these days, the bar is known for its heavy pour "Two Wheel drinks" and very reasonable prices. Believe it or not, you can get good Scotch whisky here if you know what to ask for. Great old school crowds can be found here on Thursdays when they have their weekly money drawings or when there's music or events. Other nights are a bit more urban these days with a DJ playing dance/pop/hip-hop music, depending on the crowd. Two pool tables are in regular use and gaming machines are available. Tacos are just $1 on Thursdays and they're pretty tasty. Other food is available, although I don't generally eat here so can't speak much to it. If you're looking for something fancy or upscale, don't go here. But, if you're looking for typical Westside people having a good time, with a touch of rowdy, this is the place. They also carry THE PAPER, which is always a plus...
Sat out at the beer garden, had a Samuel Adams and a couple of $1.00 tacos, the fire was going, nice and peaceful, started to get a little warm out so my friend and I went in where the air was on, chatted with a couple bikers that stopped by for a pop, visited with bartender Staci, such a sweet gal, had a pleasant stop, granted the bar gets a little "wilder" during the evening hours, but during the day usually just us old vintage players drop in
The singer was good that night. Bartenders rocked it out. They even had a home cooked food for the show. Bbq meatballs and Philly steak sandwiches. Good grab, good people, good times.
Cool bar, 5 of us on bikes rode in from out of state!!! Drank, had some good burgers. We tip well because I work in the service industry... We left after 3 hours and said thank you to the bartender and she couldn't even look up from her phone to say thank you!!!
