Bucktown Pub

Welcome to the Bucktown Pub! Allegedly established in 1932 we are one of the city’s oldest and best-hidden gems. A home away from home where the High Life is as cold as the White Claw and the Draft Beer is Fancy!...

If you remember this place before it was 'cleaned up' (boo), check out the 'IN/OUT' grid here: http://www.chibarproject.com/Reviews/BucktownPub/BucktownPub.htm. If not totally accurate, pretty funny!

Supposed to be haunted by the ghost of Wally, the former owner who unfortunately shot himself upstairs after being diagnosed with terminal cancer. He's still watching over the old bar to this day.

My fav bar in the city . Great beers on tap , friendly waitstaff & lots of regulars. Trivia @ 8 on Thursdays rocks. Awesome outdoor patio , but remember they don't serve food. Tasty free popcorn though!
