    Just got off a flight not knowing where to go. Went down town couldn't find anything exciting. Me and my girl decided to just drive until we found something. saw these different bars and restaurants open on this one main strip. This place was packed and it seemed like a good atmosphere. Came in and had one of the best times ever. Great vibes, drinks...pizza was amazing. I couldn't imagine the staff being any better anywhere else. Excellent time. A intimate gold mine.

    My favorite neighborhood bar in Lincoln Park. The daily food and drink specials are great, and the staff is insanely nice, which I think comes with the bar being a Minnesota bar in Chicago. They typically have sports and a classic or cult movie on. It's a bar where they'll remember you in the best way.

    We stopped here almost every day of our vacation because the otherside bar offers fantastic service, a kickass ambience, awesome music and great drinks! Maddie and Samantha took great care of us and we had such a wonderful time meeting them! The manager Carlos was also very friendly and made a point to get to know us and ensure that our experience was awesome. Y’all are awesome !!

    A super friendly neighborhood bar attached to a pasta restaurant. Good weekly specials, friendly staff and a fun atmosphere. You can order all the food from the Pasta Bowl restaurant next door. It's better than their bar menu. They have a lot of special events. We dropped in to watch game 5 of the World Series, and they were having a free pumpkin carving night!

    The bar is small but has a nice homey feeling. Unfortunately since it's small there is not a lot of seating for big groups and some TV's were broke to try to watch the game. Half way through the game, they put on the movie 300 which was odd. Even though its a good movie, in my opinion, I would never want to watch a movie in a bar let alone during the game. Music was good new hit music, cheap drinks/specials, tasty and reasonable priced food. If your looking for a casual place to go this is it but don't expect much.
