Customer Reviews
Amazing food and amazing service! The pulled chicken nachos and pork tacos are the best! Highly recommend!
A gem in downtown Champaign. They have great specials, friendly staff, and amazing food. I recommend the brunch on weekends.
Great place to grab a bite and drinks with friends! Beautiful remodel inside.
I really think the vibe of this place depends on the band playing. The night I went the Tom Grassman Band was playing and they were electric!
Bar crawl was amazing, but additional charges was put on my debit card. Probably additional fees for using debit card. Would have liked to know. But the experenice was amazing . Old school rap and r&b . Meet at the trap ( young joc). Meet me at the Cowboy monkey
The food was truly amazing. One of the truly delicious restaurants in Champaign. Also, they seem to follow the same business model as Hooters :D
We got the cowboy burrito and it was absolutely delicious!!! The brunch bucket came with 4 awesome beers. Will definitely come back.
The best burrito I've had in a very long time, service is amazing, and the place is very well located. I recommend to sit outside if the weather is nice. The menu has a lot of variety and it includes vegetarian options. Food is in general spicy, so you may want to ask the waiter about that. Great experience overall. …
Enjoyed a great pop-up rock show here last night. It's a great local venue for live music, and I look forward to seeing bands here more often. Nestled in the heart of downtown Champaign, there are great food options all around making it a great place to end up to see some great live music after dining out.
Coffee shop by day, restaurant/bar by night. Gotta come check this place out, especially on Taco Tuesday (1/2 price). The steak tacos were juicy and the pork tacos had a nice heat to it. The jalapeño queso is a comforting appetizer too. Bathrooms are clean and you can park at the bank nearby or on the street in the evenings. …
