It's spooky season. Grab your friends, dress-up, and come have some frightening fun at Flingers.
Thursday (Oct 20), we're hosting a Costume Party, tap takeover, and pint glass giveaway with 3 Floyds. It's called The (un)Dead Giveaway, and it starts at 4pm. Details below:
- Five beers from 3 Floyds on tap: Zombie Dust, BA Behemoth, Dismembers Only, Crimson Mask, and Broo Doo.
- Buy a pint of 3 Floyds, and you'll get to keep the glass (one per person)
- Additional surprise in-house giveaways from 3 Floyds
- Come in costume! (Not required, of course, but let's have some fun. You might even get rewarded for it.)
- One night only, the kitchen will make a special appetizer we're diabolically calling: Toe Tags. They're Kielbasa sausage bites, wrapped in our dough, brushed with garlic butter, covered with sesame seeds, and served with stone ground mustard. (Think pigs-in-a-blanket with a Halloween-themed name.) Again, ONE NIGHT ONLY (Thu, Oct 20). Price is $6.95.
- Also one night only, the bar is reanimating our Pumpkin on the Rum cocktail.
We've got costumes, cocktails, glasses, giveaways, drafts, decorations, food and fun with 3 Floyds and Flingers. What more could you want on a threatening Thursday in October? Drag your painted corpse to The (un)Dead Giveaway on October 20!
(3 Floyds keeper glass only available with purchase of 3 Floyds draft. Glasses are very limited, and offer is only valid while supplies last. Strict limit of one keeper glass per person.)
Fans have voted us Best Overall Restaurant for the 3rd year in a row, Best Bar for the 6th year in a row, and Jules won Best Bartender!
Each year, our local newspaper, The Pantagraph, hosts a Readers’ Choice Voting contest to let the community nominate, vote, and decide their top choices for a variety of businesses, products and services. In 2022 you nominated Flingers in a lot of categories (including our chicken wings, salads, and our outdoor dining), but honestly, the three categories we had our eye on this year were: Best Bartender for Jules, Best Bar, and Best Overall Restaurant. And on Sept. 16th 2022, when the awards were publicly announced, we learned that you helped us win all three!
There are a lot of great local restaurants in Bloomington-Normal (Epiphany Farms, Fort Jesse Café, Mystic Kitchen, and Biaggi’s…just to name a few). We’re humbled to steward the top spot again as Bloomington-Normal’s Best Restaurant, especially as so many restaurants, us included, continue to face such unprecedented challenges and difficult decisions.
Thank you for your support. We’ll do our best to continuing earning it.
