Try the kimchi and sausages from our 100 Best list: It’s a Polish-Korean mash-up and the best of both worlds. (Look for the free grub to reappear occasionally over the winter.)

The Winter Gingerbreww Hot Toddy from Maria's is bartender , Graham Hogans unique concoction . Korean honey-ginger tea brings a fresh, concentrated flavor, and spicy rye whiskey matches that intensity. Read more

Redeye Chicago

We recommend the Winter Gingerbee Hot Toddy , a novel combination of Korean honey-ginger tea , which brings a fresh concentrated flavor to the drink, and spicy rye whiskey that matches that intensity. Read more

Bobby Kennedy

A Chicago classic with an incredible beer selection . Sit in the old half of the bar and grab something from Kimski's next door if you get hungry.

Eric Venker

475 odd beers for you to choose from, owed in part to the adjoining bottle shop .

Bryce Jensen

Very good beer selection . Not so great for trying to just drink whisky . Their over the rocks pour is just one jigger pour with not even a teeny bit of trail . Less than 2oz of Wellet shouldn't be $10

Redeye Chicago

A relaxed hangout with an impressive selection of American and Belgian beers on draft, plus literally hundreds more in bottles. Read more

Bob DeGraff

Amazing beer selection . Great margaritas . Interesting drink specials . Possibly the darkest bar I've ever been in.

Zeke Franco

They have good cocktails . Just ask for a menu because they don't list them all out on the wall.

James Regalado

Excellent beer selection . Being a 3 floyds fan they have rotating variations i haven't found at other venues. Killer cocktails as well . Definitely a diamond in the rough.

Jesse McGrath

Top notch Old Fashioned and Margarita served up by Mixologist Kenny Furburger. You will often see the lovely Maria tending the fine selection of beer to go counter.

Steve ‘Pudgy’ De Rose

'Slashie' associated with the Lumpen organization . English pub atmosphere. Contemplative conversations. Studiously selected beers . Probably the best bar on the south side open to lay people.

Manoj Ambalavanan

Cool speakeasy with great vibe, music and venue on the inside.

Claire Pistek

Amazing beer selection . You name it, they have it.

Order the Old Fashioned. Bartender told us it's the best he's ever had. I agree. I kinda want one now...

Kevin Harriss

When the weather is nice definitely head out back and check out there great patio . Also on Monday's back there they grill up Korean Polishes.

Ellen Stolar

Super cute and low key neighborhood place with a huge beer menu

Ask for bartender's choice - a four dollar pour. Chances are, it'll be a delicious bargain.
