50 Best Sports Bars near Glenview

“This is our go to spot after work to play some games and chill on a couple drinks 🍺 cheers 🍻 Bartenders are nice every time we came in“

“Food was surprisingly good. Hummus is dusted with tajin or something like that, so it has a little kick and lots of toasted chickpeas which is yummy. The buffalo chicken sliders are seriously outstanding. Service was friendly but a little bit absent at times. Atmosphere is lively. We were there for music bingo on Wednesday night and will definitely be back. It gets loud and hard to hear when it's full.“

“This past weekend we celebrated my wife’s 40th birthday at Draft bar and it was an awesome night! Service with a smile and great atmosphere made for a special night! My wife and I would encourage everyone looking for a great space to party like we just did to do it here! The shot ski is a definite plus as well as the front patio! Looking forward to many more parties here! Cheers 🍻“

“Best soccer pub in the Midwest, maybe the country. Can’t beat the world-wide coverage, the beer and drinks menu, the food quality, and the great service. No one has this combination. That’s why Hudson’s is the official home pub of the Chicago Hammers. They know and care for the game and its supporters, and not just the so-called big six.“

“Came into town just to watch Euros at this bar. Brian and the crew were outstanding bartenders!“

“Looking forward to visiting again 😊😊“

“I’m in town for work and, after having an absolutely terrible day, I just wanted to find a good place to sit outside, listen to some live music, and unwind. I had never been here before, so I came in and waited at the front to be seated outside near the band. After standing there for a while without anyone acknowledging me, I finally decided I’d just sit at the bar instead.

I sat at the bar for about 10 minutes and still no one came over. At that point, I was honestly ready to leave.

Then Jade came over.

She noticed me looking outside and immediately asked if I had been helped. Without me even asking, she offered to find me a place to sit outside near the music. She went completely out of her way to find me a spot, told me she would take care of me, and proceeded to serve me the entire night, even though I don’t believe that was originally her responsibility.

She completely turned my experience around.

I found out later that Jade is brand new, which made me even more impressed. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely seemed to care. She just has a light about her that you can’t teach.

I work in HR, so I know good talent when I see it. Jade is a keeper. I hope management recognizes what they have in her because she absolutely deserves the recognition. What started as a night where I was ready to walk out ended up being exactly what I needed after a really hard day, and that was entirely because of Jade. She rocks 💕“

“Very nice comfortable place“

“Stopped by this bar because it's close to my new place, and I'll admit I hesitated before walking in. Glad I didn't let that stop me. It's a great, laid-back sports bar with a genuinely welcoming staff. Over a few visits I've been taken care of by Christina, Maya, McKenzie, and Jagger, and every one of them has been hospitable, attentive, and easy to talk to. They are the best!
The space itself works for any crowd. Plenty of TVs, room to spread out both upstairs and downstairs, and a patio that opens up when the weather cooperates. It's a good place to watch sports, with nice TVs throughout. If anything about your order isn't right, the staff won't hesitate to make it right. No attitude, just honesty and good service.
They also run solid daily specials. I stopped in on a Wednesday and got a burger and fries for ten dollars, and another time tried the chicken salad. Nothing fancy, but both were solid, better than what you'd expect from typical bar food. I haven't gotten a full grasp of the rest of the menu yet, but from what I've tried so far, it's been good enough to keep coming back.
Great people, great vibe. Highly recommend.“

“When our daughter chose your place for her birthday dinner we were skeptical. From the time we walked in until hours later we enjoyed every minute. The service and food were great. Thank you!“

She really cares for the customers and attend with caring.
I strongly recommend this Pub. 👍

Thank you Krissy for your kindness 🙏.“

“We absolutely loved this place! The highlight of our meal was undoubtedly the smashburgers; they were incredibly tasty and cooked to perfection, bursting with flavor in every bite. I ordered the passion fruit margarita at ut was perfect. We can’t wait to return!“

“Edelweiss is a pure gem and is THE best bar in Chicago. Laid back, friendly and a timeless classic former shift bar that now hosts a good mix of lively people. I’ve met one of my best friends in the city at this bar, spent birthdays, happy and sad moments here and the staff is just phenomenal. Olga is my favorite bartender in Chicago who has an incredible heart and makes you feel at home. Alex, who handles the karaoke machine is the best to sing your heart out with. I always bring out of town visitors, friends and loved ones here all the time, and is my space in the city. Businesses like this are the real soul of this city and in hard times and good times alike, they keep the city going…Have a Lvivske blonde and a Zubrowka in the front where you can mingle and sing, play billiards in the back, and have your intimate conversations in the really nice patio ;)“

“best thin crust pizza any where.big complaint.ordered potato skins.would never do that again.very little bacon on them and no chopped green onion.if you can't do it right don't do it at all“

“I consider this bar my home away from home when I want to get out. I also get along with ALL the bartenders, they been good to me...“

“Stopped in for the evening and this spot is such a vibe. Got their Manhattan and an order of the chicken tenders and both were so good. The cocktail was perfectly balanced smooth and strong just how I like it. Played a quick game of pool and hung out such a chill welcoming space. Everyone was so friendly and made us feel right at home. Great drink selection cool crowd and the staff actually knows their stuff. Already planning to come back for trivia night.“

“The low hum of conversation was pleasant. We arrived on a Sunday evening and were seated right away, no waiting around. The drinks were well-made, and the service was smooth and professional throughout our visit. A good stop for a quiet drink.“

“I like going to murphys every time I'm in Chicago.“

“Gracie’s is the perfect neighborhood spot to have a cold brew with your friends! Popcorn and darts just add to the lively atmosphere. However, the best part of Gracie’s is when Danny is behind the bar! He pours the perfect Guinness and is just a joy to be around, definitely stop by Gracie’s, you won’t regret it!“

“New owner’s are friendly. Staff is great New menu is awesome. Just a great place to hang out!!!“

“Chill and good vibes All night“

“Buen ambiente y buen servicio.“

“The sign says established in 1932, and every time I've driven by, I think I need to stop in. I finally did, and am kicking myself for wasted time. There is indoor and outdoor seating. The large bar and restaurant seating is comfortable and spacious. There is a variety of beers on tap, served in well-frosted glasses. We sat at the bar and I had one of the best burgers I've ever had, served with homemade chips. It was so good that I almost returned with another companion the next day!“

“I like going to murphys every time I'm in Chicago.“

“The best food in North side of Chicago Fresh with homemade bread every day Their pizza is amazing Fish made with authentic style from Adratic sea ❤️❤️❤️“

“Super nice peeps- dog stuff so it’s a keeper. Just go“

“I really wish I could give them a better rating but they for some reason decided to give my friends and I the run around. 1st of all, they sent me an email to spend my birthday there. I could invite guests, I would get a 1 hour open bar, my friends get $1 off drinks, birthday cupcakes and a $25 gift card. Also free tickets to a show and 1 for 2 for friends. We show up, they told me they knew all about my birthday and the show. We arrived about 45 minutes before the show to enjoy the drinks. When we are sat I am given 3 tickets. I was told these are for my drinks and to give them when ordering. I ask if it's only 3 and he said it was just 3 to start with and could get more. So we are sitting, having a good time. I used all 3 drink tickets in about 40 minutes (it's my bday and an open bar! Duh!) When we get moved over to the show, our new waiter said that I only get 3. So I went to our old one and let him know what he said, he told me he would check on it. He never did, even when I went up to ask again. When I went back to the show area, I talked to someone who looked like the manager (who I now believe is the owner Brian) about needing another drink and he said, "well we give 3 tickets because that's how much people usually drink in an hour". I said "okay, I get that. But I've had 3 and the hour isn't over, I have 20 minutes." And he said he would allow me to only have 1 more.... I'm sorry, but that is not an open bar. You shouldn't advertise an open bar if you're only allowed to have 3. Fix your advertisement. When we finished up the fabulous show, we noticed 2 drinks on our bill that were not ours. We went to our waiter and told him those were not our drinks. He got snippy with us saying, "well they were on your bill, I don't know what you guys ordered up front". And we told him we weren't accusing him of anything. It's possible up front someone's drinks were accidentally added, it's fine. We just want them off our bill. And so he and the owner for some reason debated over this for 5 minutes as we waited. We went over every drink we had and none of us ordered a captain and coke. They finally, begrudgingly, took it off. We paid, and we left. It wasn't until a day or 2 later I realized we never got the cupcakes or the $25 gift card. I emailed the woman, Cheryl Snodgrass, who I was in contact with about the planning about it and she was disappointed because she said they knew about me coming in and she would check. She finally got back to me and told me that when I was there, I asked the owner to use my $25 gift card for my bill. Ummmm....what??? No, I paid full price for my extra drinks and my food. That never happened. She also commented "you may not remember, which means you were having a really good time!!!" I'm sorry, now you're accusing be of being drunk so I'm not remembering? I had 3 other people with me and all of them remember the experience and not once did I even bring up the $25 gift card! I completely forgot about it until I emailed. I replied to her email letting her know that was not true, and to please get back to me and she has now ignored 3 of my emails. I'm not sure what the problem is...maybe they didn't like that I called them out on their open bar NOT being an open bar? The fact that we didn't want to pay for 2 drinks we didn't order? I'm sorry, but this is NOT how you treat a customer for a birthday event that you would want them to tell friends and come back for. It's really a shame because the shows are great, but there's no way I'm coming back after the crap they pulled. Keep the $25 gift card. Shady management is a bad look. Brian and Cheryl get an F.“

“Great local bar with live DJ and other acts a fair amount of the time. Come to experience friendly staff and a cozy feel. Open mics and karaoke weekly are especially fun.“

“We have an amazing time every time we go there. We enjoy taking one of our bikes, muscle cars, antique cars etc for a night out, and going for great food and entertainment. The bartender is absolutely fantastic! He remembers what we drive, hobbies etc. It’s just an all around great place to go. The burgers are just absolutely fantastic. And you can’t beat the Monday special. Try the seasoned fries!“

“Best place to eat in Chicago! I started going there when the owner became a client of the company I was working for in the mid-90s, setting up cash registers in the restaurant he opened for his nephew. I no longer live in Chicago, but make it a point to stop there and speak with the owner every chance I get. Always great food and exceptional service! You may have to wait in line, though. Understandably, it's a very popular place!“

“It is what is is!! Have fun and enjoy! Everything is amazing!! Servers are great! Tip them well!!“

“Rocks Lakeview has great food and a really good atmosphere, making it a great spot to hang out and enjoy a meal. Service can be a little spotty at times, but nothing too bad. The bartenders can get pretty busy, especially when it’s crowded, but overall it’s a solid spot with good food and a great vibe!“

“Caiden our host was so kind and even pulled our chairs out when we sat like a gentleman & our waitress Layla gave us the best recommendations, my first time & they made the experience! and another waiter jager even came up to check up on us, seriously so great!“

“I love the new Clover in Lincoln Park. They did a great job of bring the original Clover vibe to Lincoln Park. There's tons of TV's, steal tip darts and a karaoke room. The drinks are good and always full thanks to the wonderful staff. Do yourself a favor and check it out.“

“Last stop of the trip for a quick snack before heading to the airport! ✈🍴 Our waitress was absolutely wonderful—I totally forgot her name, but she deserves a shoutout! She was so nice, attentive, and made sure we were well taken care of. Great way to end the trip! ❤“
