Upon entering the inviting facade, one cant help but feel a sense of security as they bask in the warm incandescent glow, the beautifully polished wood, and the not-so-ironically phallic symbol posted with pride above the bar. But dont be fooled. The Bishop is not a male strip club. Quite the opposite. Its a fun place where people of all kinds can get a good laugh and a great beer. As well as watch Lost like never before! You just have to be there to understand...Lets not forget about the excruciatingly selected craft beers the owner keeps on tap...Guinness, Two Hearted, GumballHead...the good stuff. If thats not eough to raise your eyebrow, try perusing the over 30 bottled beers they keep in reserve. They even had my personal favorite, Delirium Tremens. I came buckets. Last, but certainly not least, the venue in the next room houses some of Bloomingtons hottest live acts, as well as top-notch travelling musicians. Its like stepping into another world where Rock and Roll still rocks and the newest talents remind you why music is still fun. Feels Good, Man.

One of the best bars in Bloomington. Be sure to visit on Wednesdays for Pint Night ($3 pints)! Dont let the occasionally grumpy bartenders scare you away. Theyre actually nice people.

One of the best places in Bloomington to see up and coming bands from all over the country. Great atmosphere, great sound system, great beers on tap. Love!

The barmen may be prickly but the people are nice, the beer is good (and cheap!) and they have zombie dust in every so often

Best place to meet interesting people in Bloomington. The outdoor patio is packed until 2:00 am most days of the week
