They pour a nice Guinness
4 Star Rating: Recommended

Yes, it's a "fake" Irish bar -- if you're bothered by shipped-in knick-knacks on the wall. But why worry yourself? They pour a very nice Guinness here, which is 90% of the battle in my book. Plus, the staff is friendly. Food is basic, but tasty -- and this is a frequent stop for on-duty cops wanting a quick bite.

Pros: Good Guinness

Cons: Not "authentic"

Editor's Review

Chicago outpost of a national bar franchise with Celtic charm and one of the best Guinness pours around.  See the full editorial review.
