Cruisers Pizza Bar & Grill

Known in Downtown HB for its 25 TVs and traditional Chicago style stuffed pizza, Cruisers has made a name for itself in the live music scene. On top of karaoke every Tuesday from 8:30 to 11 p.m. and happy hour Monday-Friday from 3 to 6 p.m. (and, of course, being a crowd favorite for any type of televised sports game), Cruisers has played host to a slew of live reggae and rock shows. The real crowd pleaser, however, has been the recent resurgence of their Emo Night, where cover bands for popular emo and pop punk bands bring the house down. Follow Cruisers on Instagram to keep up with their latest and greatest events.
