The Sock Bar & Grill — Restaurant in Palos Township

I’m being generous And it’s mainly bc the chicken noodle soup I ordered was actually good.

Let’s start with the obvious. I don’t think this is a bar for black ppl. Mainly older white men 10 pm on a Friday. I could be wrong but I felt uncomfortable for the 20 min I was there(to be honest this entire town gives me get out vibes truthfully).

Anyway, the main issue is that the bartender and manager refused to accept a valid Nc ID.

YES, it is temporary paper copy. But I had Proof of purchase for my replacement (which has my name, date of birth, date of purchase. Transaction id and address) which also state that it’s a valid form of ID. VOTERS REGISTRATION which has name, address, date of birth. All matching the proof of purchase.

I guess bc I’m a democrat in a small town.

The actual photo ID with everything matching.

Dude I’m 30. Nobody with a fake is going to say they are 30.

I wonder if I were white male would I have been carded.

The bartender was nice I guess. Left nearly $5 tip for $5 bowl soup. Would left more if given chance to...

My current favorite bar burger. An under 12 buck with tip gem of a bar. Usually kind of busy but the gals who work the bar and serve are as fun adorable and perky fast efficient and charming as any big place anywhere. Love the neighborhood feel. Worth knowing about as I live in Indiana and work in Alsip. Awesome specials plenty of parking and not stupid about covid like the city is. Just be courteous of course. Bathroom could be bigger. Other than THAT...eat drink...

It was completely dead on the Sunday we were there. Going back on a Saturday night was an improvement, but still, not a whole lot of patrons. They have a "bucket" of five bottles of 16 oz beers; the Miller Lite bucket is $11. A bit of a savings over ordering individual bottles. Bathrooms are very clean. Adequate parking in their lot. They also have a kitchen where you can get a variety of bar-style food, snacks...
