It's a bar in a grocery store. They have some aight beers, you really can't complain I guess

Conveniently located in the Whole Foods

An excellent place for tastings at a reasonable price. You just drop by and order.As a light weight, it's music to my ears when someone says, "I can do a half" that only applies to draft.

Why there are no reviews? Chill bar and pretty affordable prices! They have some kind of special price for drink every day!

Love this local spot. Great drink specials every day of the week. Cool neighborhood feel where you actually get to know your neighbors. Riley heads it all up and does a fantastic job. Trivia on Wednesday night is a blast. Solid beer selection for a "grocery store bar." Solid food options. Great bartenders who aim to please.

Outstanding specials everyday of the week. Really got to thank our corporate overlords at Amazon. The pizza place right next door will have you a slice or 2 when you want something to soak up the booze. The bartenders are professional and cool.

Dirty, broken tables. One bartender who was in the weeds. No clear signage or direction. The chairs are ripped....entry gross. We ended up leaving

Good deals. Wonderful bartender. Fun trivia night. And you have a whole Whole Foods to grab grub from.

Not the most quaint place I've been in as it is inside whole foods but great deals. 2 buck Tuesday bottles and cans. Made a special trip back after I visited for 3 buck Illinois draft mondays
Ok. It is the bar inside the Whole Foods at the corner of Columbus and Grand. And it is only open from 2:30 to 10 pm. But they do a good job. And try very hard. The food menu is only what they make at Whole Foods. And the drinks aren't much more inviting. But they do a good job overall.

I love me some Whole Foods bars. It was due to a conversation I had at one of the ones in Milwaukee that led to this impromptu Chicago trip, so it's ironic that I ended up here. I didn't know it was at the Whole Foods and just came for the drinks that didn't cost an arm and a leg because, well, the trip was impromptu (note to self: come back and bring money, always easier said than done.) I knew I would have to get a little bit off the "Magnificent Mile" to accomplish that, if ever so slightly. I love Whole Foods bars because they always attract an interestingly off-center crowd that's fun to interact with. There are people discussing 20th century history (Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, Pol Pot and all that.) There are also some intriguing beers for reasonable prices, which is common to Whole Foods. I'm not really hungry or I might go for one of the ramen bowls. Maybe another time.

WOW! I just had a fabulous sandwich (big thanks to Edel) and glass of Pinot Noir at The Red Star Bar. Great place for a quick bite, fun and friendly service, and amazing prices. Resident bartenders, Riley and Matt, welcome everyone with humor, a wide array of cocktail choices and beer selection. Plus, who doesn't love the fact they have a vintage Cars album on the self?!

Little bar inside of whole foods that has great prices. You can get food from the grocery store and eat it in the bar/restaurant area. The bar has multiple selections including local beers and a cheap happy hour menu.

So unexpectedly good. The beers really justify a 5 star, but the food is meh. I'm here literally once a week for one key reason: convenience. There's 4-7 Happy Hour, but worry not if you miss it! The bottled beers are $2, always. This is streeterville - $2 beers are unheard of. And then there's additional benefits: - did you know you could walk aroudn and drink your beer in the store? - did you know that they can ring up anything with a bar code? mindblowing. But really, I grab food from the hot food bar once a week, and plop down at this bar when I'm too indecisive to figure out anywhere else to eat.
