This is located on a historical Crown Point town square that surrounds the old Crown Point jailhouse from which the legendary John Dillinger made his escape! Â They actually filmed scenes from the movie here, with Johnny Depp. (Not at this bar, at the jailhouse across the street.)
Having said all this, the place itself is not much good.
This is dirty, lacks updating, and the bathrooms are ones of which you would only be able to use if you were drunk,
Packed with a lot of college students wasting their parent's money and student loans,this is a blatant of a meat-market as you can get. Â If you can find anyone smart enough to be attracted to, that is.
 I was told by one of the girls who works there that you get fired if you don't dance on the bar.  That is actually illegal, due to safety codes, but Crown Point cops probably do not care.
I just don't get it? Â There are much cleaner and classier bars on the historical Crown Point town square in comparison to this place. If this place wasn't so overrated with expectation, I might give it two stars. Â This is the last place to go to in comparison to all the other bars on this Crown point courthouse square.
Well being new in town this place was like an oasis in the desert of rural boredom. Â Just what I needed to cure the "stuck with the wife on a saturday night " blues. Â It got a bit crowded but sweet jesus the ladies were out in full force and I dont think there is a man in existence who would complain about that.
Review Source:This is place is trashy. I'm sure the owner had good intention when he decided it would be good for business to hire girls as bartenders, but I think he managed to find the ugliest girls in Lake County, which could make for an unpleasant experience if you're not drunk. Every time I've gone here I've found all of the washed up jocks (and the women that love them) that I went to high school with, the music sucks, and the place is smoky has hell. I've come to the conclusion that every bar in Northwest Indiana is nothing but pure trash, and any reputable individual would do better sucking it up and spending the money in Chicago. The Registry is no exception.
Review Source:If you are looking for that over-packed, highly overrated bar full of girls that attempt to make  Old Navy and Kohl's clothing and accessories look like designer items, then I highly recommend The Registry. If you're looking for girls who can't remember their natural hair color and guys who try to pick up girls who can't remember their natural hair color then I definitely recommend you go to The Registry. Let's see... service pretty much sucks, the bar is small and you pretty much need to start shanking people in order to even place a drink order. Prices aren't too bad. The music pretty much sucks for the most part, most nights the place is pretty dead except on weekends, and you practically have to bring your mother with you in order to get into the bar. Wahoo...
