Gregg is acting like a moron because he got fined for allowing underage kids to enter and remain. Bye bye Gregg.

We are regulars here. Ask me why again? We go here to support the local businesses — Today I swear will be the last time I would ever step foot in that place. We decided to stop by with some friends. I always bring friends to this place. Well, let me tell you what happened today– We just got out of the car. We had not gotten to the steps or even stepped into the bar. We were just saying hello to a few men outside who we thought were drunks! We were just being nice– Though for some reason we were immediately stopped and asked for our ID’s-They never did this before– I wondered… I get it. I understand… Sure I will show you my ID we will all show you our ID’s not a problem at all– Though the manner it was asked from us is something to Unilocal about. seriously! I am 56 years old, my friends are 50 years old, 27 years old and 30 years old! To begin with, I didn’t have my ID I left it at home, hence, we are regulars here –Never once was I asked for my ID– I cannot stress this enough. I understand when my ID is asked. Trust me I get so flattered so I immediately give it with the biggest smile! Just to give you an idea how often we come here– The bar tender knows what I ask for — What caught us by surprise was, The owner of this place GREGG… just yelled at my husband, «Hey, Hey, Hey You!» really??? you yell at your customers this way? «Hey You»??? At first I thought he was just joking and being funny. I thought he was a drunk man outside– I didn’t know that he was the owner of this dive bar. I thought he was so dead drunk like one of those stereotyped drunk men who just walks out of the bar to smoke or throw up– Apparently not. He was the owner and said Where are your ID’s «I just got busted for serving minors, I had to pay 25 grand» — he exclaims in a very angry and arrogant manner. We were all still smiling and confused. I walked away and said to my husband and friends that I was going to go and get my ID at home and will come back. But arrogant or drunk Gregg swears and I thought to myself. That’s it!!! So politely I waved at my husband and friends to tell them that we should just go somewhere else. When I got home, I looked more into this citation of 25 grand — Well, well, only to find out he got busted for illegal gambling of minors. He has 5 slot machines in his bar and it was a sting by the local cops. The local cops sent in a minor to gamble. No one in the dive bar asked the minor for his ID– And that’s how they got busted for«25 grand” — Once again. I will never step foot here again and now come to think of it I wonder after all these years why he is still in business. Let me stress I understand about the ID’s I was willing to go home to get mine. It was the manner of how he yelled, and swore, and spoke to us. Not nice OLDMAN! Yep! he swore! used the F word Not nice to write what word he said– but you get the picture. ohhhh, yeah wait it’s a «Dive bar» what do you expect! but no reason to behave this way– This place doesn’t even deserve a one star. maybe 5 negative stars– Unilocal should add that! Horrible! Horrible experience!!! NEVERAGAIN!!!

With the promise of a great experience we walked in… Woah!!! wait a second… We actually didn’t walk in cause we couldnt. Me and my friends got stopped at the entrance by some rude guy(the owner) asking for an ID, Not in a polite way. This guy screamed at my friend for an ID, my friend being a regular there thought it was a joke because this had never happened to him before. The guy continued to scream loudly saying that«if you don’t have an ID, don’t bother coming back here» aaaaaand that’s exactly what we did… If I cant even go in to experience this place that is a 0 stars from me. Lost a customer there gregg…

Nice local«dive» bar with friendly bartenders who can make a wide assortment of drinks expertly. Mostly locals come here, but anyone is welcome, of course. My wife and I go once a month or so to have a drink or two that doesn’t break the bank. They have video poker and a decent jukebox, as well. Not much in the way of food, but they can make a pizza for you, no problem. All in all, a decent place to unwind after a long day. The retro 70’s look is fun, as well.

A more than decent dive bar. Friendly patrons and a well-stocked internet jukebox(put in $ 5 to get songs at a ‘discount’; stick to the 1 credit plays if you want more bang for the buck). The décor is exactly what you would expect in a dive, and the prices are appropriate. I had a lot of fun when I went and intend to return soon.

nice little dive bar with a pool table in the back away from the drunks. It is in a hard to find spot that looks like an old downtown off of Lake street route 45. the drinks are cheap and they got lots of bar games. It is a unique looking old place which I alwaysb like. I imagine my grandfather and great may have gone to this place to get blasted while depressed during the depression.
