“ Haven't been to Boom's for breakfast since the hysterical COVID response sent our country into a death spiral. Still good stuff. It was good to see Nancy! Can't wait to check out lunch offerings. ”
“ Great people, great live band, bingo days and great burgers. ”
“ Food is great, drinks are reasonably priced, and they have many events throughout the year; all in all, a solid dive-type bar! It doesn't hurt that it's the closest bar to my home, either... LOL That was my original review from nearly a decade ago, and while I had many great times here before and since I'm sad to report that it will be closing at the end of the week... I was able to make it home from Harrisburg, PA to have a last drink or three and reminisce, and I'll miss the heck out of it and those fried mushrooms... ”
“ Went for the Hunks show. Bar waiters super friendly and funny. Great vibes. ”
“ When they had food it was delicious the service has always been outstanding and the atmosphere is perfect. Tom and his wife Christie(sp) are very special people. This is also a great place to see live local music. ”
“ Love this place! I've been here for live music and to eat. Haven't been disappointed by anything. Wednesdays they have a wing special. They're HUGE, twice as big as the wings you get from the big wing chain. They make their own sauces, too. I've tried most of them and been really happy. Forgot to mention their fries. HOLY cow, handcut fries! Yeah, they're good. Great burger, too. Lots of nice locals, very chill atmosphere, lots of TVs to watch sports. Good beer specials, too. Wish I didn't live on the other side of Champaign or I'd be there even more than I already am. ”
“ Good dive bar! I only ever come on Wednesday because of the deals on wings. Tons of different sauce options of varying levels of heat. And the wings are good and juicy, not at all dry. I'd eat them even if they weren't so cheap! ”
“ Oh my goodness!!! What a fantastic place to go and have a great time. This was my first experience being here. Stopped in to get dinner after a very long day of training with ILEAS. A group of 5 came in hungry, tired and brain overloaded with information. We was asked if we was going to participate in BINGO! It was absolutely FREE to play and it was hilarious!!! There was several 'regulars' there which made it even more hilarious. Turns out they do this EVERY SATURDAY from 6-8pm. There is (I think) 8 chances to win??!!! The food was great as well and the server was fantastic. She really knew how to make the outsiders feel welcomed. I cannot wait to come back. I had the BLT this go-around, but man did their burgers look delicious! That's my next order for sure. I recommend giving them a try. ”
