Classy décor with a british hunting cabin feel to it. Tasty drinks with flavours more to the strong and peppery side. Awesome back pateo that sadly closes quite early. Bring cash!

On the Grid

Order your favorite cocktail or one of the four on offer from the daily menu . Don’t let the casual attitude, vintage taxidermy or $4 High Lifes on the patio fool you – drinks here are taken seriously. Read more

Alex Straus

They have tequila Ocho! Best tequila in the world. Also a really good Mezcal called Pierde Almas. And best of all, you can make any drink spicy with this awesome Ancho Reyes.

John Khuu

CASH ONLY . Besides that, hang out on the patio and share the table with other folks. Everyone is nice and will share. Mini bar outside too with good music . Inside gets a bit crammed though.

Great spot. If its nice out head straight to the back yard .

Sandy H

Seriously great bar...so nondescript from the street that you'd almost miss it. Built-in table top checkers & great cocktails . The whiskey mule is tasty.

Grace Aldridge

Small bar that's always completely packed in the winter, so come during summer to spill out onto the porch . Checkers boards in the booths inside if you happen to snag one!

Emily Jurlina

Cash only is a bummer but the patio is awesome. Drinks are a little too whiskey focused. They don't have a lot of cocktail variety.

Bobby Kennedy

Small but creative list of cocktails . If those don't work for you, the bartenders know their stuff and can make anything you want.

Claudia Sandoval

Weekly hangout. Good vibes, great drinks. Old fashioned is always on point.

Shannon Jeropke

Runner up for Bar of the Year presented by Hendrick's Gin , and runner up for Best Bar Family presented by Glenfiddich Scotch at the 2017 Time Out Chicago Bar Awards.

Elaine Loca

It's classy with a dive bar feel. Bring your cash and order yourself the Sportsman's Cocktail . It will never disappoint.

Bobby Kennedy

Really nice patio in the back too, when the weather cooperates.

Léo Le Brun

Great classic cocktails . A Manhattan or Old Fashioned will only set you back $8.

Emery Mathieson

Sportsman cocktail is great! I detect an essence of fernet!

Kenney Marlatt

Get the "Low Life" with an amaro shot. $5. Can't beat that.

Stephanie

Go sit outside. It's a great patio in the back.

Carol

Really nice drinks, cash only . Great patio

Jason Z

Really good cocktails . But small place and gets crowded

Keith Raimondi

Amazing drinks. The bartenders know their business.

Jill

The bartenders know what's up. Appreciate the art they bestow.

Cash-only chill dive that has cheap beer and expensive cocktails .

Great atmosphere and great drinks.

Tori Reneker

Cocktails on the back patio

Jillian Burnickas

I really don't see the appeal of this place. I've been there a few times and it just wasn't all that great.

Michelle Lee

Cash only .

Chicagoist

The fireplace is located outdoors and it's a toasty and popular spot for the constant crowds at this Humboldt Park cocktail palace . Warm up to the fire with a cup of something delicious. Read more

Overrated and overpriced. They sell a can of tecate with a shot of mezcal for $10. That doesn't take creativity.

Awesome spot. Loved the beer selection. Personal fav is the draft Negra Modelo. Food is great too: cheese curds come with buffalo ranch dressing (yum) & the buffalo chicken quesadillas are great. - Laney B
