Manny's Finally Open


Recommended Posts

He may out-draw InfoCision with that place?

I wonder if it will take any business away from B-Dubs...who's had a figure four leg lock on the combo campus food & bar scene for almost 2 decades.

I'd guess that the hold (figure 4 lol!) of BW-2's is a fragile and tenuous one.

What passes for a bar/restaurant scene could certainly use some good competition.

All of the grief that the Nemers gave the University about moving (and the lawsuits and delays) for the Stadium and they end up with this? They ought to be kissing the University's collective ass. I hope they go out of business and somone who deserves it gets to operate out of that location. No love lost for them.

well for the people who haven't been there like five times already....how is it?
I met Manny at his pub last night for the ten cent tour. Very nice place. Perfect for that area.

The actual bar is as good as it looks in the photo, looks like it can seat 25 plus. Ten taps, usual domestics, Great Lakes, Goose Island 312.

Food is decent, I had wings and qusidillas. Menu has pizza and burgers also. There is a sub shop that rents space from Manny

that is connected, he said he hopes it is open by the weekend. I think there were around eight or so tables with plenty of room, one

pool table, newer type jukebox, golden tee and the game that sits on the bar. For those of you asking about tvs, there are seven, a view

for everybody in the place. The audio was also playing at the time and was easy to hear. They have Dish Network and the bartender

was happy to put any game on you wanted. 64 old dollar bills are displayed from the old place. They also have a vodka cooler for

those that like that sort of thing. They have outside seating in the front of the bar that is very nice also.

The best part IMO is he has a rooftop bar. Very cool and a nice view of the stadium from there. You can't see the field, but its a nice view.

Looked to me like you could get 100 people up there, Manny told me he thinks he could fit more. Rooftop has a full bar that was

getting completed yesterday, and the grand opening is this Saturday. All in all I think things worked out pretty well for him. He has put

a lot of work into the place and seems proud of the results. Stay tuned in 15 years when the university is eligible to file eminent

domain on this property. He also owns another property close, and has future plans of opening a restaurant on it.

Stop in and see him, he is happy to talk to you about the new place.
