Watson's Shack Rail - Champaign

When I dine at establishments as exceptional as this one, I come to the realization that I have been too lenient with my ratings for other restaurants. This place deserves a 5+!

This is one of the top spots for dining and drinking in CU. Both the food and service are exceptional. However, the real highlight is their whiskey program! Sam and his team host fantastic and well-organized events. I can’t recommend them and their whiskey program highly enough!

The ultimate bourbon experience! These guys have a top notch selection of your favorite bourbons and host different events throughout the year. The most recent event included a delicious food spread, hard to find pours, very fair chances at taking home highly sought after bottles and the staff always goes above and beyond to make sure your experience is a good one.

I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. They offer an impressive selection of bourbon, and the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about it. The food is great as well!

Watson’s is awesome! Sam does a phenomenal job! The food is good, the bourbon selection is top notch. Such a great atmosphere of people! If you are not apart of the Watson’s community, you are missing out!
