Coming to this bar for the first time the white old blonde lady with the really bad bangs didn’t accept my friend ID’s despite them being of age they had vertical ID’s that weren’t expired, they were 21 and 22 and if she just took a look for more then a millisecond and if she could actually read she would see that immediately. She said no bars accept vertical IDs which is funny because we just came from one (shout out Cheesie’s at Garfield Ridge vibes there were the bomb, they just don’t have Mac and cheese at night :( but my friend loved their cheeseballs) but after looking at the reviews and seeing the sign that said “Speak English or go back to the sorry ass country you left” I wouldn’t want to support a racist bar, the fact they have a sign like that on 63rd is wild. Go literally anywhere else.

Bartender turned me and friends down that were willing to spend money because we had vertical IDs (everyone is over 21)

Bartender was very attentive. Cheap drinks, simple cocktails, blue collar workers who can share fun stories. Don't mind the flies and you'll have a good time. It is what it is.

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!

Duane, the bartender at Mr. C's Midway Bar embodies the spirit of this local gem near Midway Airport. His charisma and warmth make him an iconic figure, not just behind the bar but within the community. Whether you're a frequent flyer stranded due to delays or a local seeking a friendly face, Duane welcomes everyone with open arms and a genuine smile. You get buzzed in, which gives you that old school Chicago feel.
As someone from NYC, Mr. C's has become my remote office during unexpected layovers, offering both comfort and a sense of belonging. The atmosphere is filled with stories from all walks of life, as locals and travelers alike gather to share a drink and a laugh. Duane knows how to make everyone feel at home, turning a simple bar visit into a cool Chicago experience. If you ever find yourself nearby, make sure to stop by and enjoy the unique Chicago charm of Mr. C's and the legendary hospitality of Duane!

We wanted a local bar and found it! 10/10 recommend! You walk in and feel at home, Emily greeted us immediately. The beers are cold and the guests are friendly! Many locals and people who work close to the area but they are welcoming and the service is GREAT!

Went to this place after landing at Midway. It has a very cool vibe and excellent service. Highly recommend.
Mr Cs was the perfect spot to end the night after closing down the nearby hotel bar. It’s got a local, neighborhood vibe, nothing fancy but sometimes low key does the trick. Says they’re dogs friendly too, may go back with my doggo.

The service was not that good. The only good thing about this bar is the prices.
