Old Town Ale House is a great bar with a relaxed atmosphere and interesting art. The bar is decorated with paintings by the owner, some of which are fairly unique. It's a favorite spot for many, with friendly bartenders who remember regulars. Cash only, no sleeping at the bar, but being drunk is okay. It's considered the best dive bar in Chicago, often mentioned as the Smithsonian of dive bars. Cold beer, good prices, and a good atmosphere add to its charm. Good service, great drinks, and a progressive vibe make it a must-visit. The jukebox plays eclectic tunes, and it's always a great option after a comedy show, where many comedians come to chat. With good vibes and good people, it’s easy to enjoy a drink any night of the week. A true Chicago experience awaits here.
