I was around when this bar first opened. It's a really nice bar as far as bars go. It's in a great location and the decor is pretty fancy. However, this is either the first or the only bar in CU to require no jeans or tennis shoes for all those who enter. Where are we, Chicago? The drink prices are outlandish. The patrons are beautiful and well dressed. And probably from Chicago. If you're a local you probably won't like this place much, but it fills a niche that most other Champaign bars did not, so if upscale is your thing - this is your bar.
