“Locally-owned Arcade Bar featuring craft beer and 80’s games on free play. Great pizza and great beer and great games and very friendly people. This place has more of a bar feel on Fridays and Saturday nights. The other days it's more of an arcade feel. Great craft beer on tap and the selection rotates slowly based on availability. This place is committed to great classic arcade games and great beer. No liquor, but beer on draft and bottles, plus wine on draft. Children are allowed before 9 PM Mondays through Thursdays.“

“1/9/16 Niles, IL. Nice wide selection in terms of brewers and styles. Good prices, some very good sales. Wide variety of Midwest craft brews and beers from other areas in the country. They have Bourbon County releases as well. Overall good place to have in the area.“

“Not a huge selection but good local stuff. Had some rarer stuff that’s off the shelf in Chicago. Friendly staff and service, willing to set stuff aside. Recommend.“

“Normal sized Cardinal Liquor on Milwaukee. Decent selection and much better than your normal liquor store. What will bring me back is their Pipeworks selection which will save a trip to the LP Binny’s.“

“On Milwaukee Ave between Dempster and Touhy. Big building, mostly wine and liquor, but with a wall of micros in coolers and a couple of shelves with a partial of imports. Interesting selection - a lot of CHI stuff, then an ecclectic mix of midwest-to-west stuff without really anything from east. Lotta bombers, they just added a selection of singles. Would I return, shrug? Pipeworks/Revolution are tough to find elsewhere. Their beermenus site had about 4-5 additional items that I’d hoped for which were not in the store.“

“Nothing fancy about this place but the people are nice, the prices are right, and the selection is just fine and pretty large actually. A good load of Belgians, Three Floyds, Flossmoor, Goose Island, Two Brothers, etc. Saw some things I’d never seen at other places. Lots of cold stuff too.“

“Been to a few beer shops in the area and I really like this place. It seemed like they had all the beers a good beer shop should have and some gems inconspicuously mixed in. Very unpretentious place with a very helpful staff that wouldn’t mind if you walk the 3 beer aisles for an hour reading the backs of bottles. Average prices for most the classic european trappists, Belgians’ and Germans’ but a few really good sales on select US micros. I picked up some 3Floyds that WLV didn’t have. WLV might have a better overall selection but I would go here first. Plus, where else in the midwest can you get a six pack of Maisels’ Weiss Original straight from the cooler??“

“This Binny’s has a very nice selection, my only issue the lack of singles. A much better layout then the Binny’s closer to my house, I will hit this Binny’s when looking for four/six packs of my favorite seasonals.“

“Woot first review! But anyway this is the place to go for TONS of choices in european imports. And if they dont have it, they’ll order it special for you and begin carrying it. Just ask! Also the recently updated craft section is taking great shape with some of the most popular brews avaliable. Domestic and imported microbrews. Definetly an "A" in terms of customer service as well“

“The selection is great, but the service is horrible. Lines get long, and nobody seems to care. One day I bought a bunch of beer and some of it wasn’t in the system yet. They struggled with it for about ten minutes, and then the manager rebooted the cash register and they had to ring the order all over again. It wouldn’t have been so bad, but the manager was RUDE on top of that.“

“This Binny’s must have improved greatly in the past couple of years. Have Flossmoor IPA’s, new 3F seasonals, tons of imports, and nice regional selection. The best liquor store in the area. Much better than Binny’s in Des Plaines and even Schaumburg.“

“Great place with a great selection at decent prices. The management is friendly, and they have great case price deals. 2012: new beer managers for kegs and bottles. prices lowered on some beers by $0.50 - $1.00 / 6pk. April 2012: Great new beers! 2013: more new beers and more personalized service. They have a great selection and will help you find a beer you love.“

“I agree, tons of Polish beers...good selection...pretty much on par for Binny’s...I do not think they turn their stock as well or as much as others...I found half a case of Founder’s KBS and they still had about 20 cases of GI BCS. I bought all the KBS though.“

“A decent Binny’s, more American crafts but less Belgians than any of the other ones. The most Polish beers I have ever seen in my life. As with any Binny’s, the service for beer is pretty bad. Junky inside, but they have lots of wine and booze too. The nest Binny’s selection wise that I have been to.“
