“Great Bar Great owner great bartenders“

“Atmosphere, room, employees, food, decor, building, yes!! It was delicious. We went today with a bigger group following my grandmothers wake/ funeral for the luncheon. Will definitely be back.“

“Great food, fun atmosphere, nice staff. but... on 11/20/24 there were THREE cover all bingo winners - only one won the trip... each winner should have got a trip to Vegas. How often do you have multiple winners in a coverall, let alone three of them????“

“Everything about this gem is amazing. The food was delicious. They had a great selection of drinks and cocktails to choose from. If you catch Santana who is a bartender there, he’s super friendly and knowledgeable- as is the whole staff. Modelo on Tap is also just an awesome homage to have for the community.“

“The interactive coin op playground of the Chciago arcade / bar scene. Priced for a cash night out- cc welcome and there is an atm. Street parking is easy but ya know how that is- taking CTA or Rideshare to Logan Square is simple. Order bites and shareable from Fry Like An Eagle next door and they deliver! Say hey to Dr. Z and be kind to the staff they are great humans there to make sure you have fun!“

“We rolled in as some sleeveless thirsty travelers late night on a Thursday. We were bathed in nonchalant hospitality. The quality of a bar can stand on the legs of a Strong menu but it’s only excellent when you have exceptional staff. The Scofflaw has the sauce“

“chill, cozy neighborhood bar with high vibes, always. the djs set the mood and keep the atmosphere bumping and easygoing. love the round booths, mood lighting, and cool people that bring the place to life. in the summer, the garage windows open and the smell of fresh rain wafts through. my gf and i have come here in sweats and in heels—it really just feels like home 🥃❤️‍🔥✨“

“Thank you for hosting Open Mic night. Wonderful experience. We’ll be back.“

“Posto 31 is arguably the best restaurant and ambiance in the La Grange/La Grange park area. The food is consistently high quality at a fair price point. Portion sizes are great and the drinks are delicious.“

“This place is a real gem not to be missed. It’s unpretentious, with approachable knowledgeable staff. The prices are unbeatable and they always have some fun or funky wines to try. I love the monthly deep read nights, the atmosphere and music is always well curated. I just hope to get into one of their classes, but they sell out quick!“

“Free hot dogs at midnight. Cool vibe“

“This is a perfect neighborhood cocktail bar. It's definitely nicer and more polished than your average bar, yet still approachable and my favorite spot to meet up with friends. A huge shout out to the staff- consistently kind, and happy to make recommendations. To top it off, the food here is amazing, not just your regular bar-fare. I legit come here for a full dinner as well as a drink. If I had to eat only one food for the rest of my life I would choose their cheesy potatoes in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!“

“Смачно. Весело. Приємний персонал. Гарна музика👍🥂🤘🤙👍“

“if there was ever a better Watering Hole In chicago. This Is It, hands down. Chris and his staff are superior at every aspect of being a classy drinking establishment. I recommend it highly, and Shop local all you lovely Neighbors.“

“My first time here (new to Chicago) saw High on Fire and Negative Approach. Sounded great! Great staff, great room for music, hope to return many many more times!“

“Great outdoor spot, great drinks...fun!“

“It’s the orbit room with “hipster”. Still a great jaunt. Anyone who makes a whiskey sour with egg white is good in my book.“

“Beyond dope. UNPLUGGED LIVE 🎙🔴 #dripPremium“

“This bar is so cool, and the lighting really adds to the ambiance. They offer a variety of seating options, including bar seating, booths, and a back lounge area. There are also items for sale inside the bar, which is a nice touch. Overall, it's a cozy spot that’s perfect for a romantic night out.“

“A great place to meet friends and see Drag Queens every other month“

“My husband and I are visiting from Arizona and were meeting some friends in The Glen. We planned on going to The Yardhouse, but thought it was too noisy. Saw the reviews for The Oak and we were so glad we did. The burger I had was the best burger I have ever had, our friend felt the same. My husband and our other friend had the rueben, they loved them also. We left the restaurant and we were going to take individual pics, then this really nice guy offered to take a picture of all of us. He was so very nice. Guess what, he was the owner. We will definitely be back on our next visit here and our friends will be back sooner. Great food!!!!“

“I came across Archies a few years back while out walking my dog.

Stopped out front to tie my shoe, my dog decided she'd walk in without me which is how I found out the bars dog friendly.

The staff is great, prices aren't bad. Its your typical small neighborhood bar which i why I love it.

Cheese balls too!“

“BEST Cubano sandwich I’ve ever had in a longgg time! Always love their mahi mahi tacos and Italian beef egg rolls too.“

“Dance vibes and good food.. recommend the fish tacos“

“It's a relatively decent place to have a cold beer or a cocktail.
I'd say the best thing about this place is they're awesome patio. Some nights their DJs are great some are just okay. If you can get a booth, hold onto it during busy hours because this place gets packed fast. If you're in Logan, it's worth stopping in for a pint or two.“

“They super Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!“

“la mejor comida mexicana y hondureña.“

“The penultimate neighborhood bar with plenty of characters, shenanigans, and fun! It's our "Just One More" place. Bikers, Rock Stars, and Divas will feel right at home. Live music most weekends, outdoors in the summer in a large parking lot. Everybody who knows, goes there. John & Sparklyn are good people!“

“I just walked out of the door and am so glad that God sent us there. We tried 3 places prior to walking in CheSa’s doors which was a definite blessing. We had the catfish skillet, bourbon peach cobbler franchise toast, chicken sausage and scrabbles eggs w/cheese washed down with a breakfast martini. Absolutely delicious and with the owner/chef being very warm w/great hospitality. We’re definitely going back.“

“This late night vegan food really hit the spot! So yummy!“

“Paddy's truly offers the best bar food around, and the atmosphere is second to none. A big shoutout to Jen, Amy, and Amy Lynn, whose friendly service always makes you feel right at home and appreciated!“

“Pete's has become our favorite date spot. We came in February for Valentine's Day, and have been four times since, including this past weekend for my birthday. It is always fun, there are always new songs, and the performers are amazingly talented. Christian, Tony, Anthony and Jeremy (sorry for any misspellings) are very creative, charismatic and always put on a great show. Our favorite servers are Bree and Miriam. Can't wait to come back!“

“A pleasant neighborhood brewery, bar, and restaurant. We generally order burgers or fish and chips, and enjoy a local beer with our meal. We ordered soft pretzels for our ap, which came with two amazingly good dpping sauces - yum!
Great casual spot.“

“This is a great place to dance, especially when a certain DJ is playing. I recommend checking their website or social media to see what music will be featured for the night. The venue is small, so it can get crowded, and the air circulation isn't the best, making it feel quite hot at times. However, there’s a nice outdoor area toward the back if you need a break. You can dance near the DJ on stage or hang out at the tables near the entrance and the bar seating if you prefer a more relaxed vibe. Overall, a fun spot with good energy!“

“was here with cousin, had good time, bartender Paula was best, offered menus & prompt service. the cheeseburger 🍔 is HEAVEN! 😓 HA.“

“YASSSSSSS! Perfect cocktails, delicious! 🍸amazing service!“

“This has been my friend's and my go to Karaoke spot near the city for years.
The rooms are nice, clean, and well decorated.
The music selection is great and I love that they give you the option of using either the traditional Korean Karaoke machine or just using YouTube.
While the drinks at the bar are pricey, they do allow outside food which is definitely a plus.
The staff there has always been kind and attentive. Never had any problems.
Even though the parking lot is quite small, I've personally never struggled with parking.
Overall great karaoke spot and will continue to come back.“

“Good musical acts, good drinks.“

“Great bar with lots of local acts and a great sound system and helpful engineers.“

“Amazing staff! Small hidden gem. Atmosphere is amazing and the drinks are phenomenal. They have specials every day of the week. Amazing ?“

“Looking forward to visiting again 😊😊“

“the wings were so good absolutely delicious food and nice staff , good for hangouts and good beer“

“We hosted my husband’s 50th birthday last weekend there and I can’t say enough good things!!! From start to finish an incredible experience and so much fun! I plan events for a living and working with Ma O’Briens was the easiest, most helpful and amazing experience.“

“Love the decor and the people are so nice and of course there’s Harry 😊“

“At Jefferson Inn the lights are low,
A cozy dive where locals go.
The bar is small, the stories deep,
A place where laughter doesn’t sleep.

The jukebox hums, the neon glows,
A friendly face in every row.
No need for frills, no need to prep,
It feels like home—cheers, Imhotep.“

“Wow. I had the soup/stew. It was great. Don't miss the garden. Koi pond. Lester the owner has stories. This is where waiters and waitresses go.“

“We’ve always had a blast there. murray is the best. However the new sat night Karaoke host is absolutely wretched. She was rude, snotty and acted like everyone was annoying her. We were afraid to request songs. Big bummer because that has always been our go to spot. Missing Clyde for sure!!!“

“We hosted a party at the Patina Wine Bar in Mt Prospect last weekend and cannot say enough great things about this place. The staff is so wonderful! Everyone was so nice and easy to work with. The food was all so delicious and I could’ve stayed hours later trying all the wonderful wines they had.“

“First visit there tonight and it was a lot of fun. Everybody there was really chill, was having a good time, and the bartenders were absolutely amazing. Can't believe I didn't come here sooner but I'll definitely be here more often!“
