Not impressed!

January 27, 2006
This bar is located in downtown Springfield, near many tourists sites like the Dana House (Frank Lloyd Wright) and the Lincoln Library. It is also near many state government offices and is popular with professionals and state employees. It is a long and narrow space and you need to pay attention to find it because it is easy to pass by on East Washington. The atmosphere is a bit dark and causal and every time I’ve been here the service from the bartenders and the wait staff has been friendly and efficient. Check out the bar menu and ask what they have in particular style and what’s new. Once in awhile they will have something interesting on tap, on a recent visit they had Piraat, but most likely you will be ordering from the bottles. The food is average and they can shut down the kitchen early, but they usually have some kind of bar snacks during happy hour.
