Best dive bar in the city, dark and dated inside, chill vibes, and locals only. Cash only. If you see the “It’s Glogg Time” neon light lit outside you better get in and get some glogg, an absolute favorite!

Was served almost immediately when I sat down. After that, it went stale. However, would be a great local hangout if from the area.
Cool old school bar vibes. Was neat to stop for a $6 Miller lite. But not for 2.

Recommended by our local Loop hotel barman to try this little gem in Andersonville and it didn't disappoint. 15 minutes in an Uber from the Loop.
Cash only, proper local pub, Pete and Bri looked after us as only Chicagoans can! 🍺 Great hospitality and we will definitely be back.

An institution in Andersonville. But if you want friendly banter with the bartenders, this may not be your place. But the pours are decent and the prices reasonable.

Patrons are primarily locals, contributing to a chill and relaxed vibe. It’s the quintessential cash-only neighborhood bar, making it a great spot to unwind. Tough to find parking in the area if driving.
