Love the divy atmosphere. This would be my regular hangout if they had drafts instead of pricey bottled imports

I’ve been here many times mostly with coworkers. We come here for karaoke and despite them never having a diverse selection the MC’s are good people! One MC bought one of the songs I wanted to sing since they didn’t have it and offered to buy the next one they didn’t have as well!
The bar itself….absolutely horrible. One of the times my s/o came in and they immediately came up to me and said we need to show our ID’s and NO ONE else in my group of 12+ was carded. Not have I ever been carded in there. And we were the only black people. I was pissed and ended up leaving shortly after. On top of that, I’ve never bought a drink from there! I had water in front of me and my s/o didn’t even order anything yet.
On another occasion, another coworker of mine, (also black). was told by a white male bartender that he wasn’t going to fulfill her order. She asked for a specific drink and he refused to give it then proceeded to Offer her different drinks. And no it wasn’t because they didn’t have it. Who are you to tell the customer what they should order?
As of lately I skip out on coming here.

Edelweiss Tavern is a cozy, classic neighborhood bar with a welcoming vibe. The drinks menu has a solid selection of beers, cocktails, and spirits, and everything is served promptly by friendly, attentive staff. The atmosphere is laid-back and inviting, perfect for a casual night out with friends or catching up over a drink. The tavern has a charming, old-school feel that adds to its character. A great spot for anyone looking for a relaxed, no-frills neighborhood bar experience in Avondale.

Great bar.
I stopped here with a friend because it was in between us. I figured it would be a traditional Chicago dive bar and it was but in all the good ways. The bartender was super nice, the prices were very reasonable, and they have a pool table!
Im gonna end up coming back to this place and I recommend it.

Went to the bar as it is close by to play pool. Handed the bartender $7 cash to play pool he gave me back $3 in quarters. Approached him to let him know of his error he apologized and gave me the rest of my money. Later the pool table jammed and he claimed we “broke the table” when the table didn’t give us our balls when we placed the quarters and pushed. Continues to argue eventually kicking us out. Complete trash

Decent sized neighborhood bar. Has a pool table and a very clean women's restroom. Accepts credit cards with a $20 minimum. Was a bit expensive for a neighborhood bar. Parking is rough.

Come on Come all... Karaoke dive bar. Drinks are cheap. No stingy fills. Pool table. Free food on special days. Good mix of friendly like minded people. Servors are kind and interpersonal.

I came in from out of town: This place was really cool. We went for karaoke tonight with a big group and had a great time. I ordered 1 shot and a beer for my friend, a tequila drink for another friend and 4 high noons. They triple charged me for 12 high noons and my tab was almost $200 dollars. I barely drink, so one of the high noons were for a friend of mine. I feel like that puts me in a very awkward position with the bartender to argue with how many drinks I had when it was busy with other people closing out. I paid the tab but they definitely scammed me out of money. Not cool to take advantage of a customer you don’t know. Felt really disappointed when I left.
Perfect bar almost minus the prices. The patio is great and the bar always has space for you and the boys. Bartenders are great but I will say they have no bike racks nearby whatsoever. Only real flaw other than the prices.
