Paulie’s Pub

I saw the bartender pimp slap chewbacca while making a waffle. That’s some talent.
Also Santa Claus comes to Mack on the ladies.
If you want to see chicken fights and a good sense of «yeah my n!55@»…go here

If I could have given no stars? I would. I stop in to buy some beer (I work nights and a couple of beers after work sounded good) The charge for the beer was astronomical! Apparently, After 1:00 A.M. the charge is more. Excuse me assholes, but, I work a night job. You will never see me again! Crooks!

Let me start off by saying that it was my first night in this bar and it was a Sunday, (never been to any bar on Sunday before tonight)
This place is like the Culver’s of dive bars. Upscale enough to make people behave, but that friendly dive bar approach anybody feel.
One of the owners was walking around handing out free samples of their future menu which shows me that this establishment is well looked after; meaning they actually give a crap. Very good indeed.
It was Karaōke and the dj was fricking amazing, she made everyone feel like rock stars and puts a new spin on Karaōke as well! Such like Karaōke suicide, and theme songs like The Beatles and Taylor Swift where everyone picks songs from that artist.
Service was amazing, I was the dd and the bartender didnt ignore my water needs and was still very friendly.
The only reason I dont rate this 5 stars is that some really interesting folks came out about 1 am. Just people coming in from other bars that closed down and they were already drunk. However I did notice the bartender refuse to serve someone so even that wasnt that bad. Me and my friend left right when they announced last call to avoid the wierd ones!
In short, great place; especially for a Sunday. (Who goes out on a Sunday?!)

Complete dump, especially the neighborhood,. They lock they’re doors at midnight because of all the homeless people.

I was not expecting what I saw when I walked in. I was expecting a dive bar, which it might be, but it is actually quite nice inside. The word is that the crowd changes later at night, but at 7pm it was a nice place.

Black Wednesday is widely considered one of the busiest dates on a bars’ calendar. People are looking forward to a long weekend with friends and family and heading out the night before Thanksgiving is very much like loosening the cap on a hot radiator

Local bar review: Paulie’s Pub in Joliet — Chicago bars |

Lots ond lots of big Tv screens. That is what I need in a sports bar. I was ssurprised how crowded it was on a Sunday night. Kararoke brings in the women on a Sunday night. While other Joliet bars were going to bed on a sunday night at twelve this place was still rocking to 2 am. Highly recommend it if you live near there

The new Paulie’s Pub is Awesome! Karaōke Sundays really ROCK!
Come check it out.

Small, and kinda spaced in 3 sections… left: 2 pool tables and 1 bathroom, middle: karaōke «stage», tables & chairs, and the right separated from the middle by the bar: chairs around the bar, 2 tiny bathrooms in the back corner, juke box, and main entrance. No food available, except for chips if I recall. Prices are pretty decent, and they also sell beer in 6 or 12 packs to go. Good service and generous staff. They used to have karaōke twice per week, but currently only have it on Sunday nights. The KJ is fun with a good sound system and great song selection — if it’s not in the song book, just ask, b/​c he probably has it. Karaōke is by Chart Entertainment, and all of their KJ’s are decent singers at least, who have fun and will do a duet with ya if you want! Friday nights I believe they just have a DJ to play music.
