The Library Bar opened Saturday
The Library Bar in Bourbonnais is now open.
Formerly known as R.D.’s, the bar is at the northwest corner of Convent and Illinois Route 102.
Owners Mike Brooks, Brent Manau and Scott Irps purchased the building in August and have been operating it since then. It was closed for the last few weeks while undergoing remodeling and officially reopened on Saturday. Outside, new signs and awnings are up. Interior improvements include a new bar and cabinetry, new tile floor, new stone accents, T.V.s and updated restrooms.
Hours are 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. seven days a week. The address is 131 E. Marsile St. The phone number is (815) 928-9143.
