Worst. Â Bar. Â Ever.
If I could give Shametime zero stars, I would. Â I grew up less than 2 blocks from this place, so I'd clearly frequent it often. Â Even came here for my 21st birthday. Â Showed up at about 11:50pm, walked in, ordered drinks, waitress checked IDs. Â Instead of wishing me happy birthday she called over a manager and they told me I have to wait outside until midnight. Â There were maybe 12 other people in the bar and this was not my first time as a patron of this trash-hole. Â This was only just the start.
The waitresses have the cumulative IQ of the turd that is probably currently floating in one of the stalls. Â The lighting is very dim because so are most of the people who frequent this dump...plus they were beaten with an ugly stick and no one wants to see that shit. Â It's mostly regulars who drink alone to wash away taste of blowing some dude for meth or to forget about the murders they've committed. Â Class.
The owner is the worst. Â Total cheapskate and a dick. Â I've (sadly) been there probably close to 100 times (due solely to proximity and lack of opitons in Palos), and he's maybe bought me one shot (cheap plastic thimble kind).
Finally, the true test of how terrible a bar is. Â Go to Lametime and order a car bomb. Â You'll get a plastic thimble (that clearly doesn't sink) of imitation Jame-O and Bailey's, which they'll give you to dump in either half a plastic water cup of Guinness or a rocks glass. Â If you're lucky, you'll have a gulp of Guinness. Â I think it's $15 a pop.
The best drink I'll ever have at this place will be had in the parking lot, watching it burn to the ground. Â I'll then take a piss on the ashes....laughing.
I have been here 2x's since moving to the area and both have been horrible. I can say the food is ok but the service is terrible. Went to have dinner and they said i need a credit card to open a tab for dinner???? ok i give the card but tell her i don't want to use the card to pay. A few hours later we get the bill after the waitress messing up our drink orders every time! The place was empty and she couldn't remember a miller lite and a captain and coke....brought us bud lite and who knows what else every time. Anyway i forgot about the card and of course so did she...i went back the next day and the owner was so rude. Like it was my fault! Never again!
Review Source:For bar food it's good. This is not a food destination but a fine place to share a drink and a little grub with friends on a Friday after work.
The beef nachos were really good. Lots of toppings. I had a southwestern jalapeño burger. A typical bar burger that tasted good.
The service was sporadic but gave us something to laugh about.
