Post Game Pub & Sedona Grill

This was a real surprise for me. I've seen the signs and knew it existed in a beat up, shabby looking strip mall.  But I thought it was going to be the kind of dive bar that I don't go to.  You know, the one that's dark, smells like a musty basement & the only people are a handful of drunk guys that are on the neighborhood sex offender list.  Nope, this is the kind of dive bar that I like.  What's the difference you ask?  For starters it has to have a few craft beer choices & not just Miller or Bud products.  It helps that the place doesn't smell like a flooded basement.  Of corse a little musk, wood & beer is ok.  Throw in good bartenders & friendly / fun wait staff & top it off with good food.

This is the Mokena reincarnation of the Pub that started out in my old hood in Country Club Hills - shout out to Conrad the owner.  This isn't really a place to hang for the night, but more of a place to stop for one or two.  There is a small patio for smokers & outdoor eating.  The food is standard bar food, but it is a little better than you would expect.  Friendly bartenders and nice clean bathrooms are a bonus.

Great local sports bar.  Friendly staff, daily drink specials and good food make this a nice place to hang out on a relaxed night.  You are not going to dance here.  You can just relax, drink and talk to people and be able to hear them talking back to you.  Pool table, large group tables, bags, outdoor patio, clean washrooms and fast service are nice.  It also helps that we know most of the people that come in there so it is nice to go "where everybody knows your name".
