C & D Lounge

How bad does this place suck… let me count the ways.
First, the damned façade is painted black and gold. There are Tiger Hawks over the doors and under the windows. You would think is this a Hawkeye bar. You know, the place to watch a Hawk’s game. Well, mama’s wrong again, folks.
Sure, the game is on the TV and the freaking Tipsy Trolley is in the parking lot with its plenitude of fake Hawkeye fans, but that doesn’t mean you are going to get to watch the game. Nope, they won’t play game with sound, because the fake Hawkeye fans — you know, the ones sporting Hawkeye colors but not giving a damn that the Hawkeyes are going for 8 – 0 because they want the freaking jukebox on DURING the effing game — won’t allow the sound on because the game disrupts their drunken singing.
Second, cash only. Enough said.
Third, just try to get the bartenders attention. Don’t even bother waving the cash in the bartender’s direction because nobody is coming. Locals don’t count for sh*t here, only Tipsy Trolley fakers.
I’m not bothering with this place again.
And, don’t bill yourself as a freaking Hawkeye bar if you don’t play the game on TV with sound and can’t get the people in the bar to cheer when the Hawks score because they are to busy singing to the effing jukebox. For God’s sake! It’s a freaking Hawks game!

Whatta bitch. My refrigerator gives me better service. The bartender had the worst personality I have ever seen, and my beer (bottle by the way) smelled like someone took a sh! t in it. I have learned my lesson.

one star for Joes…
I spent many a day with — mouth full o’ gizzards — drinking beer talking to toothless townies…
good times…
One star for LINKIN LOGs
yum — this may be the only place on earth with a combination of pickle-​juice and jack daniels…
One star for the REAL prize…
Gizzard Logs may be the nastiest thing on earth and we love (JOES) for it you’ll find me under the pool table («under the table and dreaming without the ghey reference») drinking gizzard juice and jack daniels, re-​living history and loving it…

It used to be known as «Joe’s» but is now called C & D’s.
Currently it is the only bar in town with cameras, which in the past has deterred college students. However with the town now down to only two bars (as of Summer 2008), more college students are frequenting the «local’s bar.» Especially since there is a basement that can be rented out for parties.
The prices here aren’t too bad, but are more expensive than Chameleon’s which is half a block down the street closer to campus. One thing they do offer that Chameleon’s doesn’t really is the equivalent of «super-​sizing» your drink from an 8oz highball to a 20oz beer mug for double the price. A large drink usually ends up being about $ 6-​$ 8, but well worth it.
