    Super chill and a great place to grab a beer in historic downtown Woodstock (also situated right across the street from a historical marker on the Bill Murray/Groundhoug Day walk tour for those of interested in that gem - <a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz/groundhog-day-walking-tour-woodstock#hrid:nNx7lJ9Qgy5pAopxB4YIYw">http://www.yelp.com/biz/…</a>).

    They were all Blackhawk'd out and had multiple sports games playing on the few tvs they had, but it wasn't loud or obnoxious and the overall vibe was more old-timey saloon than sports bar and I really liked that because I personally could care less sports, though I know I'm in the minority.

    $3 glasses of house wine & Corona was the advertised sidewalk chalkboard special on the day we stepped in to get out of the heat, but we went with some of their better tap beer once we saw they had a nice selection.

    When we walked in we were surprised by their pretty darn decent tap beer selection. They had some stuff from Revolution, Lagunitas, etc, and seemed heavier on the IPA tap selection... which is a good thing. We ordered the Anti-Hero from Revolution and the Little Sumpin Sumpin from Lagunitas, but when one beer came it had a lemon wedge in it and I thought - that ain't right. I didn't order no sangria. I took a sip and was definitely Leine's Summer Shandy, which isn't my personal preference but it was practically a million degrees out and we really were just looking for a quick drink to cool off and since the boo was actually wanting something on the lighter side he happily drank it and we didn't have to get up and do an exchange for the correct beer. And when the bill came we were charged for exactly what we'd been served, so I'm thinking it was likely just a mix-up where the bartender thought we said Leinenkugel, though we'd actually wanted Lagunitas.

    It would have been nice to see a paper or chalkboard menu of their tap and bottle offerings instead trying to guess based off the tap handles.

    The layout is really nice with a big bar in the front, some raised seating next to a picture windows to look out to the street and old theatre (where Bill Murray once stood for the filming of the movie Groundhog Day). And the larger part of the bar had plenty of nice, wood 4-top tables and a dividing wall where it looked like they could kind of shut the bar nice out a bit if customers wanted to enjoy a quieter meal sans sports and tvs.

    On our visit, we were one of only two tables in the place and as we left two more people came in to sit at the bar and watch 'the game' which seemed to be either golf or baseball (both were on), but everyone besides us was quietly drawn to the screens and it was actually just a really nice, chill, calm vibe.

    It seemed like there were a few bars to choose from in the area, and while Main Street Pour House wasn't fancy by any means, it was definitely one of the less divey bars (by far), affordable, and a place we'll absolutely come back to the next time we're in need of a drink in the Woodstock area.
