50 Best Bars near Bedford Park

“Magoo's is letting the band Malinche play on August 25th knowing that a member of that band, Calvin Hobbes, is a rapist. Watch out for businesses that won't watch out for you ladies.“

“Highly recommended for first dates, or just going with a group of friends. Been here twice, and everyone there is super friendly, definitely a place to have a lot of laughs and make great memories. 10/10 🙌🏼“

“By far the best 🍔 I’ve ever had! The fusion of flavors 🤯“

“BEST Cubano sandwich I’ve ever had in a longgg time! Always love their mahi mahi tacos and Italian beef egg rolls too.“

“Stopped in here to try the Jibarito Smash Burger. Was impressed with this bad boys...it was like that fr. It comes with lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, grilled onions and their version of animal-style sauce. The burger was a well-prepared smash burger and the bun had two fried plantains for the bun. 9.2. Ngl this was solid all the way around burger. The vibe inside wasn't my type but I wasn't there for that. Overall 8.9...the customer service was cool she got me straight on my drinks and food. But definitely will come back for the burger.“

“A great place to have a party, the ambience is great and I will be back here again next time, the drinks and food are delicious too!“

“A wonderful spot to sit down and have a drink and apps. The bartender Carli was very kind a gave great suggestions which made the experience that much better. Matt was very personable, talking to me about music and my visit to Chicago, great vibes all around. I’m from the south and I wish we had oysters half as good as the pickled oysters on the menu. Hats off to Queen Mary’s“

“Old school awesome ?? this place is just like that last bar everyone loves in their city. People very polite and kind.

Be warned, i used to smoke so i liked it but it's smoky AF. Can't ding it for that, but know before you go!“

“Osito's Tap is a great queer bar in the authentic Little Village Neighborhood in Chicago. They had fantastic and reasonably priced drinks, awesome flavored Michaladas, and great food. I loved the Oxana pizza and wings. It's got a great vibe and awesome staff.“

“Top notch service, drinks were phenomenal, and the food simply EXCEPTIONAL. Thank you for the VIP treatment on my Anniversary! You peeps are amazing!“

“Posto 31 is arguably the best restaurant and ambiance in the La Grange/La Grange park area. The food is consistently high quality at a fair price point. Portion sizes are great and the drinks are delicious.“

“Great vibe! Happened upon it while in Chicago - highly recommend!“

“Thank you for hosting Open Mic night. Wonderful experience. We’ll be back.“

“We had the most magical evening at After. The food was beyond amazing and the service was top notch. We are still talking about our memorable dinner.“

“We went on a Saturday night around 930pm. Not many people in there yet but the crowd that was there was diverse. Different ages and walks of life. Bar tender was friendly enough and took care of business. Poured a stiff drink for a fair price. It is a legit authentic "dive bar" for starters. The real deal. No frills. Not some wanna be staged pretend dive bar with over priced drinks and pretention. It is old, dark and dirty. We wanted to love this place. We loved everything about it except for one thing...And it is a deal breaker for us. Um. The smell. It smells horrible!!! Like an old stale ashtray with a half put out cigarette still going in it and up in your face. It was really really bad. I don't know if someone was actually smoking in there while we were there, but there is definitely still smoking happening inside that place. It burned my eyes and my nostrils. Gave me a headache. Unfortunately, we were one and done (and had a pretty good buzz from our one drink I must say). But sorry, we can't do the cigarette smoke.“

“1st time visiting and the atmosphere was phenomenal. Thanks to Anna and Keith we were well taken care of with a great selection of cocktails. We were even made a custom Old Fashioned with a touch of Christmas. Couldn’t have had a better time. Thank you to The Office staff.“

“Girl & the Goat completely exceeded my expectations! very good food“

“Indoors only - dog friendly tavern that encourages patrons to try the infamous Malort.
Jeopardy was on at 4 pm and everyone participated! Bordering Ukrainian village this gemstone is to be sought after! It is a neighborhood tavern not a fancy place and the bartender is versatile !“

“Great bar with cool atmosphere and drinks. Dark Shadows was playing on the tv. The Electric Funeral cocktail is very tropical but I can’t wait to have the drink in the viper snake glass. Not sure but I think you can buy the glass. Bridgeport favorite Old Style and Malort has its own electric sign. It’s small and gets very crowded on the weekends but Thursday night was very chill so this will be my go to after eating at the Ramova during the week.“

“This was my first time using 99 Haus Balloons for my daughter's 2nd birthday party and they went above and beyond!! Absolutely worth every penny and will be a repeat customer for all my balloon needs! Fabulous service, the product looked amazing and my daughter was in love with the balloons. Everything I could have asked for! So easy to pick up and ready on time. Thank for you such a job well done!! Highly recommend!“

“i like this place extra because i am polish. bartender laughed at my excitement over my home beer being in the fridge (lone star) and said you can find it anywhere! now listen here willy i love ya but im here to tell you that just ain't true! i been to and from, across this damn nation, and outside of texas i seen it once somewhere in missouri, on the northeast coast at a single live music venue, and here at stella's tap! maybe a couple more but still this is a rare treat for a simple texan like me. thanks for the good times“

“Precioso lugar,con variedad de opciones para comer“

“This place is a must visit. My wife and I have been here twice and they don’t miss! Love the Chicago spin they put on a lot of their dishes. Each dish is well balanced and so flavorful and their cocktails are tasty too! Every team member we have interacted with is always knowledgeable and welcoming. There is no doubt this place will continue to get more popular and is easily one of my favorite restaurants in the city. Can’t wait to go back“

“WYA??? You get back home 🏠 ok?“

“Wonderful staff and friendly“

“By far the best bar when it comes to service, they are very attentive and always greet you with a smile! The bartenders are lovely and definitely help create a fun and positive atmosphere🩷 Highly recommend!“

“Hit up Rebel & Rye on Grand Ave and left super impressed. Popped a Cherry Bark Old Fashioned and a Cucumber Collins—ended up around $26 for two killer cocktails. Bartenders were friendly and knew their stuff, had that cozy rustic‑bar vibe with big TVs and a hidden back patio. Free popcorn on deck, bring‑your‑own‑food is a bonus. Chill spot to unwind.“

“Very nice staff and the food was amazing 🤩“

“Enjoyed the Christmas pop-up, very festive and the food is fantastic!“

“Ended our Halloween at Goodnight John Boy and it couldn’t have been more fun! Gigi, our host, walked us up and everything from the disco ball to the dance floor was a vibe. Umana and Isabella V took great care of us all night, we should have started the night here, thanks for the best time!!“

“Total local joint. Love stopping in when I’m in town“

“Daverns is a very popular bar. The staff is nice and attentive. Because of its popularity sometimes you have to wait a little bit but what can you expect on weekend when you’ve got a big crowd, live music & people enjoying themselves with a feel good atmosphere? The outdoor area is great and live music performs there during the summer months and inside during the colder months. There are bag games to play and if you want to host an adult birthday party or an event in a bar type of atmosphere this is the place to have it. They have a special event area in the back and if you like to play slots, there are some slots located in the front. While I don’t drink we have friends that do and we have been patronizing Daverns for years as our friends and my husbands bands play here . We haven’t really ordered food from here yet so I can’t review the food. I’m just reviewing the service and the atmosphere. They have specials from time to time and just really seem to me that they are all about the customers and running a great bar business. We have been treated so well every time we come which is why we keep coming back. So if you’re in the Justice area and want to stop at a great little bar/lounge give Daverns a try. .“

“This is the perfect neighborhood bar. Cash only! Bartenders are friendly and properly trained to make drinks. No food, but you can order door dash or whatever. Good beer list at reasonable prices. Pool Tables are free. Love that this is in walking distance from our house.“

“Nice bar & open late! Had a bad day with a missed connecting flight. Hotel bars charge out the wazoo so went here instead. Felt welcome and cared for by the bar tender (Emily?) great deal and good ambiance. Would return if I’m ever back!“

“We've been coming here since my husband and I moved to the Chicago area in 2018. We even came here on our wedding day. The staff and service are amazing and prices are unbelievable for Chicago. I can't recommend this place enough for Iowa Hawkeye fans or anybody in the Chicago area.“

“Awesome tacos! Nice staff“

“My Favorite neighborhood bar ❤️“

“good place to hang out we had a good time dancing and the atmosphere was good, friendly people“

“Teresa was outstanding great atmosphere“

“The bar upstairs here is small but has exceptional service sat at the bar, and has both great decor and atmosphere to make it feel like a secret members club. The staff are willing to make up cocktails not even on the menu and everything is served professionally. There’s loads to admire in the decor yet despite all the attention to detail the prices were reasonable. I’d certainly return!“
