Bars near Ava

“Stayed at the Longbranch Lodge for 4 and a half days recently, and it was brilliant. The place is very spacious, very clean, and fully equipped to handle a family of 8-10 at least. The owners are such nice folks, and the bar they run steps away, was equally impressive. All the girls behind the bar were very kind and super nice. First night in on a Thursday, the Saloon had free pool, which kept me out until 2am, and the following Saturday the place had some Rockin live music.** Side Note **I left a couple tee shirts in one of the dressers, and without hesitation, they sent me my clothes swiftly. Great people.If you’re looking for a quiet retreat, look no further.“

“The owners are some of the nicest people you'd ever meet. The bar is very clean. Theres normally music on weekends & bigger bands on the beer garden/ patio. Theres a variety of music instead of only one genre. Its not a snooty bar or a ruff bar, its perfect & welcoming to everyone.“

“I've been going to this bar and grill for 20+ years and they have always had great food, great service, and it's a great place to hang out and drink after hours! Only issue is that it's kinda small but we are a small town so it's not a big problem for sure!Parking: On street right in front of and right behind in the alley room for more cars than people lol ?“

“The Hideaway Tavern is my favorite place to go in Southern Illinois!! Tracy and Roger Loos are my family. They provide some serious customer service that will make you feel like you are home. The Hideaway Tavern supports local music and have been having bands for quite some time now. Fun welcoming atmosphere, strong stiff drinks, and beautiful people. I love this bar. 5 stars all day!! ?????“

“Slamming Sammies is about the only dressed down eatery at The Greenbrier, but don’t let that fool you. The food is awesome. My wife had brisket nachos and they were awesome. I had the wings, which were huge! And DON’T miss the fried vinegar potato chips. They’re a must do!“
