What do you find at the Ilk Bar? Fresh ilk, of course, Ars bars perhaps, maybe even some ixed lollies? Apparently not.
What you will find, is an interior as kitsch as that opening is lame, complete with moose head (or elk head, just to make things complicated), beer galore, popcorn, and barkeeper/owner Lyle, who dreamed up Ilk Bar so his friends would never be left bar-less. Now, you too can be one of Lyle's friends, for the small fee of a Coopers.
Essentially, Ilk Bar is set up just like your Uncle Frank's lounge room - the only things missing are the faux log fire and Coolabah. There's plenty of legroom, mingling room and canoodling room. And, like Uncle Frank, Ilk Bar even has a huge courtyard perfect for summer afternoons of lazy drinking behind big sunglasses. This way your friends and family won't be able to tell that you're too relaxed to actually listen to them.
