Murphy's Bleachers

The best place to eat and drink in Wrigleyville.

  • Satellite sports.
  • Great bar food.
  • Private party rooms.

One of Chicago's premiere sports bars and neighborhood pubs. THE destination before or after a Cubs game.

Editorial Review for Murphy's Bleachers – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
The bar behind Wrigley Field's right-field bleachers features--what else?--tons of Cubs memorabilia, plus ballpark favorites like hot dogs, brats, burgers and plenty of beer. Sidewalk seating proves a good vantage point pre- and post-game; there are booths in the back room, but the bar's usually standing room only with rowdy, young fans. The main bar serves standard drinks, and a smaller bar in back sells cider and Harp on tap and bottled imports.

When to Go

It's packed on game days, but fairly quiet otherwise.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I was in Chicago in November and on the day we left, we had 6 hours to burn before flying back to NJ. We ordered a Chicago Classic Pizza and put down a few Old Styles, the local Chicago brewski. Since the Bears were in town, you could really see what a Chicago sports bar is all about. The T-shirt collection they got going is something else too..I just had to indulge. I can't wait to see the real deal in the summer when I come back and the Cubs are in town. Definately all as advertised!

Pros: Food, Beer, Atmosphere

During Cubs games (and pretty much for all of baseball season), this place is complete madness. But go in during football season and it's a nice,relaxed place to watch all the games. The chairs/tables, though, are more set up for standing room, so it's not the most comfortable place to hang for three hours.

Editor's Review

For many Cubs fans, a game-day trip to this Wrigleyville bar is as traditional as the national anthem.  See the full editorial review.
