Nels Old Time Inn

Jake was a great bartender. He was relaxed, honest and talkative. The atmosphere was great too - the billiards table had a lot of character and the TVs and music made the place feel friendly. Overa great experience!

Best Dive bar in DuPage County!!! Nicole and Stephanie are pretty awesome bartenders. You cannot beat the prices and the regulars are great folks. Hands down my favorite dive outside of the city. Highly recommend.

If you aren’t here on Friday and Saturday nights for karaoke…what are you even doing with your life???
Great dive bar!!

You definitely got to check this place out if you around the area.what a vibe this bar has! And hope you be lucky enough to meet this bars hostess named Ashley. Then you would not want leave the place till it closes and that is a promise!

This is a fun bar. I was there the other night, first time, and it was welcoming. Drinks are priced right, karaoke fans are fun, and it's just a fun atmosphere.

I'll be back sometime, for sure.

This place is awesome. Came here randomly after picking up a pizza and had the best night ever, I sucked at karaoke and everyone was still cool 😂😂😂. Recommend 💯

Wonderful friendly atmosphere! Awesome karaoke Friday and Saturday! Staff is friendly. If you want a homely bar, this is a good place! ❤❤❤

Came in to sing some karaoke was greeted by Pleasant people and good staff had a great time recommended to anybody to come through town.

What a great place. From moment we walked in Ashley made us feel right at home. I would rather be in a local neighborhood bar then fancy ones anyway because of this very reason I mentioned above. They had Karaoke night (Friday) and everyone was having a ball. Look forward to more visits there and to see my Ashley's friendly face.

Karaoke on saturdays is great! Gets hot! 🙂🙂🙂

Friday and Saturday karaoke is the best!

I've only been here once, but it might be the best find ever. It's not very big, and the parking lot feels smaller than the bar, but it's a quintessential neighborhood dive bar, and that's all it needs to be.

We went for the karaoke (Saturdays at 9pm), which turned out to be very popular. The DJ does a great job moving people along, but if you're looking to sing you'll want to get there early to get your name in.

Great friendly service!

if you are looking for real people and cheap alcohol would highly recommend. if you want some fancy place with fancy drinks and fake nice people. go somewhere else. its a dive bar, expect a dive bar. no food, not the cleanest place in the world, and staff that aren't going to fake nice. love this place 💕

Even the roughest diamond shines. Nothing but love, laughs, and memories to be had here. Good beer at great prices served in Mason Jars. What isn't there to like?

It's just the place you want to be.
Excellent service. excellent everything.
Trust me your going to want yo stop in and cool off with some really cold drinks.

Live the bartender Peggy, her and Becky are the best in regards to service and to letting you know when too much is enough. Prices are great and I would recommend to anyone for a great drink!

I have enjoying Nels since 1995 when I lived in Lisle and to this day when I am in Lisle a few times a week. This is a true "Dive Bar" at night on weekends is a true party to enjoy.

Ashley and Al bring this small town bar to life!!! Great service! Great people! Great times!

Great no frills town bar. Pool table,darts, jukebox, and cheap beer. Patio is great when weather cooperates.
