This is serious business. With newspapers lining the counter, no-nonsense straight-backed chairs and round tables, High Life Lounge has always catered to a mature audience. Popular among locals for their Miller High Life fixation, the lounge thrives on and maintains its past glory. The food is simply alluring with age-old recipes like Mom's Pot Roast, spaghetti and meatballs, goulash, sloppy Joe sandwiches and more. They have special offers every day, so be sure to check those before you order. Live it up at the High Life.
