No!

We have not had karaoke since around June of 2016.

Yes.

We have four gaming machines available as well as an ATM.

Yes but only outside food, no drinks!

We just ask that if you do bring in outside food, that you clean up after yourself. We also do not have any silverware or plates available so please plan accordingly. If you’ve got a water bottle, you may be asked to empty it, but we’re happy to give you fresh water in return! If you are caught bringing ANY outside liquor inside you will be asked to leave immediately as that violates our liquor license.

No.

As of November 1st, 2023 we no longer have customer parking in the parking lot behind the bar. It was sold to another company who now manages it.

Metered parking is available along Washington street and in the parking lot across the street. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Yes!

We have two traditional cork dart boards as well as some sets of house darts. We may ask to hold your license until the set of darts is returned. You are also welcome to bring your own darts, but we cannot store them for you. Please note that we also usually have Dart League every Tuesday evening so the boards are usually reserved during that time.

Sorry, no.

While we definitely love furry friends, and used to welcome them, we unfortunately cannot allow animals in the patio any longer, unless it is a service animal. Emotional support animals are not permitted. Thanks for understanding!

The back gate for exiting ONLY.

We ask that you only enter in through the front door so that our bartenders can greet and serve you appropriately. If you are caught entering through the back gate or letting others in through the back gate you will be asked to leave. And absolutely NO drinks are allowed past the gate at any time as it is a violation of our liquor license and can result in fines. If you are caught taking a drink past the gate you may be banned permanently.

Yes. We have two and each has one bed and one bath with on-site laundry and parking available for an additional fee. You can always read more and inquire about renting by clicking here.

Yes, but only outside.

As of January 1, 2024, smoking AND vaping are no longer permitted indoors in the state of Illinois. We do have a patio with a smoking nook and we have ash-trays if needed. If you smoke or vape out front you are NOT permitted to have a drink with you.

No!

Even though marijuana is now legal in the state of Illinois, you are still NOT permitted to smoke anywhere within Bentley’s Pub, even on the patio, even if it’s a vape. It is not part of our liquor license. If you are caught it may result in a ban. So please don’t!

Yes, on Tuesdays!

We have a Keg Killer Tuesday special almost every week where we feature a different draft on sale! Follow us on Instagram or Facebook to learn more.

No. We are strictly 21+

Because we are not a restaurant and therefore have no food and because we have gaming, we are strictly 21 and up. And no, unfortunately, that’s 21 years, not 21 months. Thanks for understanding!

Sometimes.

Depending on the season, we may have tank-tops, t-shirts and/or hoodies available for sale. Call ahead and see what we’ve got in stock! Sorry, no online purchases available.

Yes.

It’s a TouchTunes too so there’s an app you can download if you’d like to play something from your seat.

Most of them!

We open later than usual on Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, and Christmas. We usually close for a day or two right after New Years Eve for some deep-cleaning or to complete a project or two. Other than that we are open every other holiday EXCEPT for 4th of July when we close to give our staff a break!

Tell a staff member! We are a bar that strives to make everyone feel welcome and safe at all times. If someone is ever acting violent, inappropriate or is using hate speech in a way that makes you feel unsafe, please tell a bartender or doorperson so we can address the situation.

Not currently, but you can still fill out an application and we can keep it on file.

Yes.

We have two, all-gender restrooms. And because we are a small bar and the bathroom line can build up on busy nights we ask that only one person use them at a time.

No, sorry!

Sometimes!

It depends on a few factors but if you’re interested you can read more and fill out an event form here.

Not really, no.

We have in the past but we just stick to DJ’s these days and let the venues book all the live stuff. As we like to say, we’re a pub not a club.
