Small Bar is a hidden gem. Super chill atmosphere, great beer list, and the smash burger—The Patty Pleaser—was legit one of the best I’ve had. Crispy edges, juicy patty, and just the right amount of sauce. Bartenders were friendly and knew their stuff. Perfect spot to unwind without the usual bar chaos. I’ll definitely be back for that burger alone.
Best smash burger in Chicago. Great place right at 4pm when it's not crowded. If you go after 6pm you must have lots of patience. I give 4 stars for service not because the service itself isn't very good it's just that when it gets crowded you'll have to wait a while. Overall very good though.
This is an awesome neighborhood spot with a solid burger and a sweet patio. The staff here is always friendly and welcoming. I prefer the single smash burger with cheese, I feel like when I’ve added bacon to it, it makes it a little salty and almost takes away from the burger. The burger is simple and delicious and does not need anything but ketchup in my opinion.
