Great place and some unique burgers. We gent right at home. I would recommend this place for sure. The Lipsmacker burger is a weird combination that most people would not order. I did not order it, but my wife did. I am glad she did because it was crazy good.

Plays loud music outside, after hrs, keeping area residents from getting sleep. Don't answer the phone, front door locked. Why do we have to put up with this?

It is the oldest active bar in McHenry County with some of the friendliest people. Very nice place to have a couple of beers and chat and the piano guy was pretty good too.

Ahhhhhh oldest and best wateringhole around. This place belongs in the untamed wild west. Where else can you find an "original" 1898 Baby Grand keyboard hanging on the wall. Story has it William Clasen opened the bar in 1900. It is truly the oldest tavern/bar in McHenry County. The building inside is as it was over a hundred years ago! It is a time warp when you walk in starting with the old time creeky aluminum screen door. The food is absolutely excellent. From appetizers of cheese bites to the crispiest wings around to sandwiches and burgers you will NOT be disappointed nor will you leave hungry. My heart of hearts wants me to leave 5 stars. Now comes the but....... Clasens was recently bought from the original owners. And with new owners comes price changes. And it really is a shame. We went for appetizers (we shared one), two burgers and a four or five beers. The bill was over one hundred dollars! $100 for beer and burgers. This is a dive bar. Nostalgic and lovely but it is still a dive bar. If I'm going to spend $100 on dinner and drinks this wouldn't be my first choice. It's so sad that they ruined this little piece of history, a gathering spot for locals and farmers alike. This is sacred ground with a very expensive price tag attached so bring your wallet with.
