    One of the best bars in the neighborhood. Great beer options, pool tables, fireplace, patio out back, and a killer jukebox.

    Lived-in. Dark, warm and friendly. Jukebox(?) playing a bluegrass cover of 99 Problems. If I lived nearby this would be my exoskeletal support and protection from long Chicago winters.

    Love this place so much! It makes me feel like I'm at my grandma's house. My favourite room is the fireplace room with the leather chairs & the glass beads hanging in the window. And now I can DRINK!

    This Lakeview tavern not only boasts one of the best beer gardens in Chicago, but one of the most highly sought after fireplaces around. Read more

    The Long Room is great but this is an excellent change of pace. A cute, urban, neighborhood tavern with a great patio.

    If you can tear yourself past the juke box crammed with old-school jazz, and the eclectically furnished back parlor, then you have found the patio and won’t be leaving anytime soon. Read more
