The best beer prices 3.75$ for a 32oz beer. Just ask for Andy or Devin they'll hook you up. It's the best place to go in valparaiso for a beer.

Located in Valparasio, this bar is for the broke and the tasteless. If you are broke and all you drink is beer, this is the place for you. Their 32oz for 3 bucks is a very good deal, but the beer taste like piss. Their mix drinks are expensive and they pour only a little bit of liquor in your drink while filing the cup over the top with ice. A soco and coke is almost 5 dollars and you don't even feel the slightest buzz after drinking couple of them. The atmosphere is very dark and place is dirty. The men's urinal is just a metal tub that you have to share with the guy pissing right next to you. If you want a decent bar to enjoy your drink, then rage your money somewhere else.

My wife and I stopped at Northside Tap Room on 4/23/11 while cruising through Indiana on the motorcycle. We both found this place to be a lot of fun. There is nothing fancy about this place, nor does it pretend to be. Several locals were drinking their draft beers out of clear plastic Dixie Cups. There is nothing pretentious about this place. If you have a good attitude the locals are extremely friendly, the bar tender is really sweet, and everybody just wants to have a good time. The beer was really cheap, the 1/2 pound burgers are delicious, and the wings were really good. I think our Bud long necks were like $3/piece, so very reasonable. My wife and I split an order of wings, each had a burger (adding onions, bacon, mushrooms, fries, & coleslaw), and 2 beers each. Our total was around 30-35 bucks. So not too bad at all. I could see this place being overcrowded at night with local college kids, that could change the experience slightly. We stopped in around 2 or 3 on a Sat afternoon and it was pretty cool, with just the older/local patrons. This is the kind of place where you can kick your feet up, and be yourself. This place is a dive. But living in Chicago we get our fair share of yuppy bars. So a dive was exactly what we were looking for. You have to understand when traveling, the dives will usually have some of the best food/bbq you've ever tasted. Would definitely recommend and will definitely go back when in the area again. Biker friendly, family friendly, wouldn't recommend bringing kids.

I say the goal of this bar is to booze you up. Like do they even want your money? My bourbon on the rocks, normally cost $9-$12 anywhere else, was only $4 and some few cents here. OMG! The beers are good and good deals too! Ask anyone who has been here. Friendly bartenders! And if you are hungry, they have food on the menu too. Not too shabby!

Amazing bar food at any time of day or night. Fairly priced. Only detractor is smoking is allowed, but usually it isn't a problem because the place is so big. Love going in the summer too for the outdoor patio.

It's a dive bar so keep that in mind. I love their taco platter. My husband and I will go there and get lunch for each of us and two giant beers and it costs about $16 so the value is awesome and the food makes us happy.

Tis a college bar located right off the tip of downtown Valparaiso. Our party of 12 was here on a Saturday night during Labor day weekend. It was not even close to being a full house. We managed to secure half of the patio to ourselves. Beer is fairly cheap. If you're a heavy beer drinker, this would be your place. There is a game room towards the back by the bathrooms. Our group went with the dart game and it kept us entertained for about two hours. Side note: Our group had a birthday boy wearing a "Happy Birthday" tiara. A few of the tenants sitting by the bar area was kind enough to have bought him at least four drinks. Good ole Indiana!

It's a bar, there's drinks. Very small paths between bar/tables/etc., but plenty of seating throughout. I'm normally here with good friends, so I'm happy. :)
