A hidden gem local bar in town. The patio area is very nice and relaxing. They have a variety of drinks you can order. The price here is very friendly for students and locals. The staff here are very nice and friendly. Nice place!!!

Bentley’s had a low-key sports bar vibe when we visited. We tried the Tiramisu and Don’t Chai This at Home – both creative in concept but a bit too heavy on the liquor to fully enjoy.

I had renewed my driver’s license and had both my new paper ID (plastic is on its way in the mail) and my old ID as well and they kicked me out due to “no valid ID”. My ID is legally valid. Ill never go back.

Favorite local haunt. They have an amazing selection of brews and spirits, as well as a super helpful and knowledgeable staff. The majority of the time, they know what I want to drink better than I do.

Great pub, when you visit Champaign-Urbana, this is definitely one of the spots you have to go to! Loved the multible references to pop culture. They have a very unique drink they are well known for, too. Would definitely say it can be a great sociable place. However, the reason why this didn’t get a full 5-star review was because of an experience I had with a person the bartender said was a regular. See, I was raised to be polite and respectful towards others. There are 2 bathrooms here, both 1 person use, unisex. Whenever I go to a bar that has these types of bathrooms, I will usually knock before entering because I don’t want to accidentally enter the bathroom someone forgot to lock, nor offend them. I went to use the bathroom, knocked on the door, and tried to open it, and it was locked. Then the 1 person said, “Occupied.” Ok, all good. I went to the other bathroom and did the same thing, knocked and tested the door handle, and it was locked. Then the other person says, “Hold on, almost done.” Ok, still fine. I walked over back to the table I was sitting at to wait, and then the person from the second bathroom came out and returned to their table. Was just gonna walk back to the bathroom, but then the person started saying comments about someone kocking on the bathroom to their friends. One thing they said was, “Someone knocked on the bathroom when I was in there, who the hell knocks on a locked door when someone’s in there!” I understood their viewpoint, but at the same time, it was a bit rude, unnecessary, and even made me feel uncomfortable a little. I have a rule with myself where if someone’s being toxic, I turn around, walk away, and don’t say anything. Sometimes, I don’t even return to a place because of someone like that. But I don’t want that to happen with this place. I really want to continue coming here and try to have a good time. I’m sure things will get better, but I will admit that if I’m hanging out there and I see this person walking in, I’ll probably just pay my tab and leave. Please respect 1 another. Thank you.

The door man, Gabriel, wouldn’t let my 77 year old mother into the bar because she didn’t have her ID on her. We understand the issue with not having the ID, but the way he spoke to her was disgusting. He was so rude and disrespectful. Because of him I won’t ever spend another dollar in this place and I will urge others to go elsewhere.

Love this place! Moved away last year and missed it so much I had to drive 7 hours just to get some white lies and see the awesome bartenders!

Love this bar, small/limited seating inside but a nice patio area in the back and a rooftop area. Music inside isn’t too loud, so you can still have a conversation. Great beer prices with a nice variety of choices and just an all-around friendly atmosphere. Best place I’ve found in Champaign. Highly recommend.

This place is the best! Awesome outdoor patio. Great live music. The beer selection is really good, but they have some of the best bartenders I’ve ever encountered making it difficult to order any of the beer available. If you’ve got a go-to mixed drink they shouldn’t have a problem making it and doing a great job, but all of their specials are amazing and make it worth trying something new. The only negative is the headache I get every following morning because I couldn’t say no to one last old fashioned. Make sure you plan on a way to get home beforehand.
