Corby's is one of my favorite bars in the area. It's a bit of an older crowd and has a lot of space, including a nice outside patio.

This is a "speakeasy" as they don't have a sign. It's a bit more "exclusive" for South Bend and has a great menu of drinks and appetizers. I like it because it's very nice on the inside and quiet.
