  As you can tell by my check-ins, I'm pretty much a regular of this bar now. I wanted to update my original review with information that I know now that I didn't originally.
  
  They do not serve food at all. However, they do allow you to bring in food from other restaurants and eat there or to have it delivered to the location.
  
  I like my bars dark and lit mostly by neon, so I've stayed pretty much in the basement area of the bar. The basement portion is generally the only section open during the weekdays and Sundays. The upper level and the Tiki Bar is open in the evenings on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. However, as the weather is getting nicer, they are opening up the outdoor area more and leaving the basement closed.
  
  The staff here is all wonderful, I've only had bad service once and it was a busy night, sitting upstairs and it was a waitress, not the bartenders.
  
  The music is mostly satellite radio and the Juke Box. They do have DJ's, Bands and Karaoke depending on the night of the week. Since there is a diverse crowd that goes here, you get some strange mix of music coming over the juke box. One night we went from the Pet Shop Boys to Slipknot.
  
  They have a mug club available for regulars. You get a customized mug and the have specials that are exclusive to mug club members.
  
  It's still a pain in the but to get into their parking lot. I haven't found an easier way to get their other than cutting through parking lots of surrounding businesses.

  This is a pretty good bar. MAKE SURE YOU TRY THE WOODCHUCK THATS ON TAP. I love cider and Woodchuck is great. I went there for the first time on Halloween and the upstairs was open. It was a lot of fun and there were a lot of people there. They have a great special that is a list of beers and a list of shots and you pick one of each for $5. The only downside was that the music the DJ was playing was pretty crappy. I was ready to dance and this guy is playing the Bohemian Rhapsody. There was popular music being played that night. The next time I went there was a weekday and only the downstairs was open. A Blackhawk game was on so everyone was really into that but it was still a good time.

  Loud and belligerent clientele is the top negative, hair band music blaring is next.  Don't go if you're interested in watching a game because every tv is placed in the worst spots possible.  Horrible bar.

  For Friday night specials this place is the best!!!! Half priced drafts are amazing, plus with the club upstairs and the pub feeling (my prefered) dowstairs it's the best bar in Rockford I've been to yet. Doesn't serve food but feel free to bring ur own in
