    "JAMAICAN" themed bar; decor is cool. It has a pool table in the back and plenty of sitting space. I came on a Monday for happy hour because I've always wanted to check them out, and I was in the area. It was pretty dead, like its counterparts, but for a Monday, it was expected. Happy hour is 2 for 1 until 8 pm, which is cool. I started with a vodka soda as per Jay the bartender; they also have prosecco on tap, which I haven't heard of before. I decided to try their "Jerk chicken; which took a min to get despite me being the only customer at the bar at 4ish. The wings were drenched with a sauce, kind of like BBQ, and very spicy; the meat was falling off the bones, and it was tasty but nothing "jerk" about it. 8 wings for 15 bucks is not bad. (Reminds me of the wings from 7 eleven). My babes finally showed up, and we continued drinking. I asked Jay which aspect of the bar was supposed to be "Jamaican,"and he responded The monkeys ( two monkey figures fornicating as decor). He said, "he was joking," because someone called him out and proceeded to tell me the owner, when they first opened, had the concept, and now it's just the food. The music is all him, which was just old school hip hop. Despite his distasteful joke, my bf and I finished our drinks and still gave him a tip. His attitude began to change when customers started coming in, and I didn't want to spend any more time there. Needles to say nothing in there is Jamaican. And I won't go back. But don't let me stop you.

    I was looking for a venue to host a Mix and Mingle. I decided to contact Kingston Hall to inquire about having the event there. I sent an email to inquire about having an event there. I received a response in less than 24hrs, which was amazing. The email was very detailed in response to me wanting to host an event there. Once your reservation is confirmed you have to reconfirm your reservation the day of your event. The day of the event I received a text message to confirm my event, before I was able to send a text message. When I arrived the day of the event, the place can be difficult to find. You have to go up the stairs of the residential building and the entrance to the venue is to the left. When you walk in the bar it has a speakeasy vibe. I like that your reserved area has a card on the table informing others that there is a reservation in that area. The owner Nick introduced himself to me and I thought that was nice. Happy hour is Buy 1 get 1 on select drinks until 8pm. When you purchase your happy hour drink, you receive a token to get your second drink later on. I ordered the mini jamaican beef patties, they were delicious. Overall, my guest and I had a great time. The venue does get very busy during happy hour. One tip is to apply your makeup before you arrive. All of the mirrors have art on them so you can see to apply makeup in the mirrors.

    A great solid bar with rustic vibes. The signature drinks here are so fun, I got the Pineapple Express and it was delicious and surprisingly came in a pineapple. My friend got the coconut one, and they serve it in an actual coconut as well! Would highly recommend getting one of their signature drinks for how fun they are. We also shared some fries which were very yummy. Service is also prompt, and the bartender was super attentive. Overall a fun spot :)

    pretty generous happy hour that runs till 8pm, even on a Friday, thank lord! great underground bar that has good blend of both classy and divey vibes. You could pretty much bring anyone here. I drank their Q-Cumberbatch & Pineapple Express cocktails. The latter had a whiskey floater which you know you'll be in for a good time. Q-Cumberbatch was a sleeper hit, I don't know many places that can make gin taste so good. Also, had their Goose Island IPA on draught. Very hard to find Goose Island on draught outside of Illinois, so definitely take advantage there while you
