Great beer, obviously. You should have a lot of Goose Island options that are harder to find. The food also happens to be quite good as well.
Fodor's TravelAugust 24, 2015
Although Anheuser-Busch bought it a few years ago, Goose Island Beer Company is the granddaddy of Chicago’s craft beer scene, and it’s still well worth a trip to the Lincoln Park brewpub.

Loads of fun great bar food. The Paulina Brat is delicious along with a Kolsch. Crowds empty out when the game starts so it's a great place to watch and enjoy a meal.

The beer selection alone is enough of a draw at this local brewery, where we can happily while away an afternoon nursing a crisp 312 Urban Wheat Ale or malty Smoked Porter. Read more

Goose Island is known for 312, Green Line, Sofie... Brewpub offers other undiscovered flavors like Cermak, Lanesplitter, and Cubby Blue; Fantastic Beer Garden near the ballpark for pre-game pint

Into beer? Get a flight and try one of everything. Then grab a final pint of your favourite and head to a Cubs game. Trying every beer makes baseball more entertaining.

Great place before a cubs game. Beers are all good. Had the Cubby Blue which was fantastic.

When ordering food, try the sweet potato fries as your side; the curry ketchup they come with are a revelation. If you're drinking, be sure to ask to start an MBA program.

Head here for lots of beer choices and solid bar food, particularly the Black Earth Burger and poutine.

Nothing beats an ice cold beer after a baseball game at Wrigley. Come in for daily specials on all drafts. On the weekends they have live music in the back. Have fun!
Matthew SchumanSeptember 2, 2015
Hang out before the games and you won't be sorry. The house beers are all very good plus pub only releaaes

The wings were overcooked and rubbery, turkey burger was pretty good then my husband informs me that his mushroom swiss burger was awesome and the best burger he's ever had. Now he tells me!

Cozy up to the bar between the first two tap clusters. The bar glass washing station is right in front of you. Y'know... for science.

Great beer on tap. Sofie is soft and smooth. Sweet potato fries and chips were awesome.

Food tip: Crispy Buffalo Chicken sandwich (best sauce ever) and cheese curds! Beer: Classic 312.
UntappdAugust 24, 2012
Wrigleyville is an amazing place! Huge, two story food and bar. Get there early on game day!
Chrissy NickelFebruary 27, 2011
Get a flight to sample some of the amazing beer on tap; the Matilda was a favorite (Belgian...tasting a little like nutmeg/cloves)
Steve CateAugust 30, 2012
Try the turkey burger with onion strings. Then wash down with 312. Magic.

Try anything with the BBQ sauce, it's made with their ale. BBQ chicken tenders are my fave. And 312 is an excellent session beer for watching a game!

Try as many beers as possible... then try some more.
GrizAugust 24, 2011
Amazing beer selection, best place to hang before/after a Cubs game. Even moderately priced...on GAMEDAYS no less

Order the cheese curds, they're from the best creamery in Wisconsin!

Great beer! Bourbon County Stout is off the charts! I also like Green Line Pale Ale, Oatmeal Stout and Nut Brown. If you like beer, they will have a style that suits you.

We’re here for the beer, and it doesn’t disappoint, be it draft (note the goose-shaped taps), or in bottles. But the food is better than it has to be – homemade chips! – as is the pubby atmosphere.
Dallas WinklerFebruary 8, 2012
The 312 Urban Wheat Ale is great. I'll have to come back during baseball season for the highly touted Cubby Blue.
Kristin KroppJune 16, 2012
Love the cubby blueberry. Make sure to check out the beer garden in the back.
Bob DeGraffMay 3, 2015
Nowhere near as many beers on tap as at their main brewery location.
Jack StankewiczAugust 23, 2014
Beer, bar food, burgers, sandwiches
ClareFebruary 16, 2016
very yummy beer!
Robbie HamiltonJune 27, 2014
That Cubby Blueberry lager is quite good. Not too sweet
Paulyne WAugust 19, 2014
Cubby Blue beer! So refreshing! You can only get that at the brewpub
Mike WakelingFebruary 18, 2012
If you like peanut butter or bacon, try the peanut butter burger. Delicious!
Steven SpringerDecember 7, 2011
King Henry was the greatest thing that has ever come out of this brewery or hit my lip. Ultimate orgasm... In your mouth
Tim PNovember 29, 2012
Holy crap their turkey burger is the best thing I've ever eaten!

Cubby Blue and Wrigleyville white are the way to go when they're available!

Poutine. Try it. It's delicious

Beer, lots and lots of beer.
Jason PastoreAugust 26, 2015
Great beer selection
Nell JadwisiakAugust 16, 2011
The turkey burger is amazing!! Sounds weird on menu but the flavors work.
Scooter HendonAugust 2, 2010
Their standard beers are good, but nothing to get worked up about. However, bring your big-boy pants and try the Bourbon County Stout. Amazing.
Dusica MalenMay 24, 2013
Love this place
Will LonghiniOctober 10, 2011
During the baseball season, definitely order a Cubby Blue draft.
