Great jukebox , people, and smoke. This place is a time warp in a great way. When bars were bars , not libraries . $.75 hard boiled eggs . Get in on that! :-)
A gritty old bar with character. Yes you can smoke, listen to classy tunes of a bygone era on the jukebox , order a templeton rye , & take a leak in the men’s room under a scantily clad Marilyn Monroe.
Neon light's, the smell of cigarette smoke, and sounds of Frank Sinatra are the best way to describe Richards. If none of that bothers you then come by for a beer and good conversation. Read more
It’s St. Patty’s & some drunk girl wanders up to the bar from Emmit’s next door. She looks at one of the old Italian bartenders , “Can I get a Vegas bomb?” He replies, “I ain’t got time for that s#%*.”
So cool!!! There are many stories about this place. Ask the barman about the movies (the nice one, not the other ????)we can smoke here!!! ❤️
Be careful of that Point 83 bike ride on Thursday's... might be the best time you've had in a long, long time! Get off your ass, dust off the bike , drink some beer and be a part of a great group!
Cheap beer and old school feels are a plus but prepare to stink like smoke.
You can smoke cigarettes here. Yes that's right folks. Also the cheapest beer in the area with .75 hard boiled eggs if that's your thing.
One of the best dive bars in the city . Excellent juke box with CDs!
Very nice is the time you have when you can drink by yourself.
Best jukebox in Chicago for old school music !
Dive bar my ass. This place is great. Cheap drinks , Frank on the juke and no smoking. Old school Chicago bar .
Runner up for Best Chicago Mainstay at the 2017 Time Out Chicago Bar Awards.
Beautiful restaurant and very friendly service .
One of the last remaining bars to smoke inside in Chicago!
Old school bar with lots of history.
Apparently you can smoke in here, yuck. $3 bottle beers on a scoreboard is cool tho.
Best jukebox in Chicago . Cash only
The feeling of an old school real bar ! You can still smell the old cigarette smell.....lol
Richard's is underrated, and the best place to grab a drink before or after dinner in West Loop. Read more
It's an okay bar . I would rate it top notch but one of the guys (bouncer) was kind of a d-bag!
Should be closed permanently
Old school bar . Jukebox is fun
shots out of the hard boiled egg white . (and Schlitz in a can). Love it. Favorite dive in the city .
Place is exceptional. Cheap beer , old school juke, nothing but love
Hard boiled eggs are only 75 cents ! Get in before they lock the door at 2:00
I absolutely love this place! Especially my main man Anthony!
If ya want to feel Italian ... for getta bout it...this is the place
The bartenders may be old, but they can still kick your ass.
Tip your bartenders
The jukebox is the best!! Kris black taxi !
Try the high life!
We. Are having a good time.!!!
Cash only bar
Smoking is still allowed in this bar .
How is this my first dive bar and I live in Indiana....
They didn't get the memo about the smoking ban that was passed a number if years ago. People smoking in there all the time. Nasty
If you like Frank Sinatra go here
4$ 24oz budweiser . 5$ absolute on rocks. Nuff' said.
Meet Point 83 here EVERY Thursday for a bike ride
Just because it's "closing time" doesn't mean you should leave.
This place is disgusting. It was filled with smoke when we walked in; even the bartender was smoking. So we walked right back out.
Bell Bar Chicago, if you know Bay City , MI
Great atmosphere
Hamm's in cans!
Man. I love this bar !
Don't buy cigs here..
Looks like everything is there for grab!
Boneless chicken dinner ... Only 75 cents !

This place is great!! Had 312 bottles for 2.50 when I went! Love the cheap drinks, plus its open until 4am! - Lindsey Woody
Meat lasagna is delish. Shrimp Armani is the best appetizer anywhere. Good place. - Jordan Scott
