Yeah Butch's! Yeah Jo!

We always have such a great time! Beat the 2 am crowd and come well before the 5 am closing time. All the servers we've gotten have been immensely talented - carrying arm-loads of drinks at once, remembering dozens of drink orders perfectly, getting us our orders FAST, and still joking with us and making sure we have a good time. We love the waitress Jo... Butch's has got a little comedian!

This is one of my favorite staples of the Rush/Division area. The food is typical bar fare, but homemade and delicious (in my humble opinion, the best reuben in the city!). The service is a welcom change from the nonexistent or nonchalant presence at other bars on the street. After drinking the draft beer served in frosty mugs, I can't bear to drink it anywhere else. It does get a little too packed on the weekends, so I try to steer clear then, but it's cozy and quiet the rest of the time. A good spot to escape the snobby neighborhood or loud clubs that surround it.
