Stopped in here for a quick drink with a friend. She ordered a beer. I ordered some type of shot mixture with screwball and butterscotch schnapps. The bill was $20. For a little dive bar that was a little crazy for two drinks. The bartender was very nice though and said that she should have told me about the price of the screwball shot and she adjusted. It’s a cute little place. But I would just say to maybe ask for the price of drinks so you’re not shocked. It was a cool little place though

I’ve been going to this bar for a few years now and from day one I was welcomed with open arms, I love all that bartenders that work there and the manager. I always have a great time with lots of laughs and memories to last a lifetime. Also shout out to the karaoke djs , they always make sure everyone has a good time, and if you stay long enough you might get a chance to hear the bartender sing a song or 2.

Went here after dinner so my wife could sing some karaoke. Bartender was hilarious, people overall were really cool, totally dig this place. Karaoke sound wasn’t great, but not a huge deal breaker. Great drive bar with good people and decent beers, what’s not to like? We plan on heading back this weekend, as hard to find any karaoke places these days

First Time at Nels Old Time Inn on Thanksgiving to watch the Chicago Bears.
Doesn’t look like much from the outside but it’s the total opposite in the inside!
Very cozy and well lit interior serving quality drinks at a reasonable price!
The bartender is very outgoing and makes sure all the guests are attended to.
Definitely recommend this bar to all locals for a good time!

This is a great fun bar. The beer was reasonably priced and we had a great bartender. The place is pretty rundown but I appreciate that in a bar especially when the people are friendly and nice. I would definitely recommend it. Make sure to count the gnomes I think I got to 12 but I am sure I am missing some.

This is a fun bar. I was there the other night, first time, and it was welcoming. Drinks are priced right, karaoke fans are fun, and it’s just a fun atmosphere.
I’ll be back sometime, for sure.

Best Dive bar in DuPage County!!! You cannot beat the prices and the regulars are great folks. Hands down my favorite dive outside of the city. Highly recommend.

If you enjoy having a drink with the locals of Lisle, Illinois as I do myself, this is your place. Nell’s has become one of most well-known speak easies to visit in Lisle, Illinois. My man’s brother remembers his grandfather taking him there when he was young, regularly. That’s pretty strong. I look forward to going back there once again to see family and friends.
