Great food, beer pong and a sea of blue and white :)

I went to Flounders for the PSU v. ILL game last night. Great service, an awesome happy valley atmosphere and even (gasp) cowbell! Second best to actually being in State College for a game. I will gladly be going back.

Maybe I couldn't make it to PSU for a game, but at least PSU came to me :) 5 STARS FLOUNDERS!

Great for watching Penn State football!

Flounders is the game watching home of the Penn State Chicago Area Alumni association, so you're sure to have friends in blue and white on Saturdays in the fall. The bar staff is friendly and fast, pitchers are cheap, and the nachos are great. I will be planted firmly on my barstool starting September 2....

• Pros: Friendly bartenders, NACHOS, cheap beer
• Cons: Limited seating on game days

So, the awning could use a little updating, cuz i never really noiticed Flounders before, but i am sad to say that i was missing out on a great little(well, not so little) spot in the neighborhood. The crowd is diverse, the barstaff is friendly and makes a good drink. The food was some of the best bar food i have had, especially the buffalo chicken and the garlic fries. I brought some buddies back last week to catch some march madness on the awesome plasmas they have here, and luckily we came early and snagged some seats, cuz this place was packed with young sports fans cheering on their teams. I have heard too that there will be a beer garden this summer, so we will definitely be back!

• Pros: new Beer Garden, good attitude/crowd, great TVs
• Cons: come early for sports, games
