Average beer: $4Even with 120 TV screens, it’s mind-boggling that this quintessential sports bar manages to pack all 20,000 feet of its warehouselike space with people—on nights when the Illini are playing, you can’t even move. When the game’s not on, musical acts (Tone-Loc is still considered music, right?) and an outdoor patio keep the place buzzing.
