I may be broke, but Old Towne Pub makes me feel like a millionaire.

It's true. I used to avoid this bar and headed to a watering hole down the street, but they closed and I'm kicking myself for not frequenting Old Towne as often.

Old Towne Pub & Eatery


The Crowd
Like any bar you've been in, the crowd is never the same. Granted here there are quite a few 'townies' (such as myself) that you may see in the bar quite often. Either way, the bar has a friendly aura and you feel right at home upon entering (Make sure if you do decide to enter...pull the front door not push. It's deceiving and everyone may point and laugh for a few seconds.) The ages vary pending on the time of day as well. Early in the day you'll see families enjoying a meal, and once about 9 o'clock or so hits it's more bar-goers than those whom are hungry. At this point the age still varies, but obviously the youngest person you'll see is 21.

The Drinks
June has been a friendly month at Old Towne in regards to drink specials. My wallet never falls completely empty, and here's why.

Monday- $2.00 Coors Bottles
Tuesday- $2.00 Bud Bottles
Wednesday- $2.00 Miller Bottles
Thursday- $2.00 Bud Bottles
Friday- $4.00 Bacardi Sweetart
Saturday- $4.00 Hawaiian Punch
Sunday- $5.00 Bud Light Pitchers (Pretty sure this is on Saturday and Monday as well)
Beer of the Month- $3.00 Goose Island 312

The Grub
The food served is your typical bar eats, but done with some extra pizzazz. I haven't found anything on the menu I didn't care for and the menu is priced well. Everything is affordable and makes you feel as if you were stealing from them with how great the food tastes. My personal favorite for my past few visits has been the Buffalo Chicken Wrap. Simple, yet filled with a decadent sauce that has levels of flavor.

Here's the menu for you curious folks.
EDIT- Blogger isn't cooperating with me right now. Until then visit www.oldtownepubeatery.com and head to the menu section located in the top left corner. I'm sorry it won't let me upload- I'll fix this as soon as possible.

The Venue
Old Towne in Geneva has a rustic, yet modernized feel. The floors are coated in a rich dark lacquer, and the walls are bare brick accentuated by refurbished ceiling tiles from when the building itself was first built. The bar on the main floor is large and can accommodate more than a few patrons. Upstairs is typically reserved for special events, but when it isn't occupied it's a nice place to escape to and play darts or shuffle board. The basement is relatively the same, not nearly the amount of people on the main floor and filled with games such as- darts, pool, Big Buck Hunter, Bags, GoldenTee, and Golden Bowling.

Location
201 State St.
Geneva IL, 60134

My Opinion
The drinks are more than affordable, as well as the food and it tastes great. This is all made possible by the staff. They're friendly and quick to help/serve. I'll continue to visit this bar forever, or at least until they get rid of the Buffalo Chicken Wrap. Then I'll boycott with signs and all, think Congress Hotel, until it's back on the menu or they give me a free beer for my efforts.

Hope everyone enjoyed, and head on over when stopping in Geneva.
