Chop Shop

Great food & event space - only criticism is the relatively staid beer list . Add some smaller breweries on tap & in large format bottles. Put that space to use for some breweries for rare beer nights

Owned by a CU alum, Chop Shop will open up its back room and throw games up on its 30-foot projection screen. Food and drink specials for CU gameday include $5 well drinks ; $12 cheesesteak poutine . Read more

Lounge away on a “secret garden ” upstairs patio that’s hidden away from the hustle and bustle of Wicker Park . The space is complemented by a daily rotating selection of frozen cocktails Read more

Meatballs at the deli are a delicious, old family recipe . Meats @ butcher shop are high quality (often local) & a great value . Dinner menu is served upstairs & downstairs after 5pm. Try the pork chop !

A popular spot for it’s lively patio and awarded best patio brunch for our Best and Worst Brunches of 2015, Chop Shop should be on your list of places to brunch in the sun. Read more

Everything is outstanding. Get the Parpadelle with the short rib ragu . I could seriously eat that every single day. $5 glasses on wine on Wednesdays

The deviled eggs and burger were delish. We asked to split it and they basically gave us each full orders of fries as well . Great cocktails , rooftop , and service.

It's a butcher shop . It's a restaurant . It's a bar . It's an event hall. It's all of these things, it's finally open, and it's huge.

Spicy Italian sub is solid. Add the mild (not spicy ) peppers because the spiciness is just right. You can tell them that you want to eat your sandwich at the bar then order a beer .

Treat yourself to the indulgent lobster polenta cake eggs benedict , or dig into a portobello mushroom stuffed with housemade caprese sausage and topped with a runny egg . Read more

In the fall, great football game watching on a huge screen. In the summer, nice outdoor patio space . The burger is exceptionally good all year round.

The butcher board may be a starter but really it's the main event . A lovely selection of meat and cheeses that pairs very well with the cocktail menu .

I have never eaten in, I have loved their Italian sausage , chops, and the marinara is the best. If the butchers aren't busy, they are helpful.

Great place for food and beverages (try the whiskey ) and accented with Bocce Ball . Check it out when you're in the neighborhood !

The whole menu looks delicious. Chicken burger was tasty. Great beer selection . Will definitely come back

It's a butcher shop ! No, wait, it's a bar with great burgers ! I mean, no, it's a music venue ! All three, you say? Okay!

You can enjoy a deli sandwich at the bar and have a beer from their awesome selection. You won't be sorry you did!

Yesterday after my sister got married at Wicker Park Lutheran Church , we had a good time having brunch right next to the el train .

Get the tagliatelle with the short rib ragu , it was out of this world. $5 glasses of wine on Wednesdays!

Superb cuts of meat at reasonable prices. Cocktails and other menu items are excellent as well .

The squid ink pasta (on starters menu) is amazing and definitely large enough to be a moderately sized entree

The jumbo shrimp cocktail at Chop Shop is one of the 100 best things we ate this year. http://tmout.us/rLOtk Read more

The crab cakes and burgers were really delicious, and this place has a great atmosphere.

Was in the back of the bar in one of the bigger party rooms but if your looking for a small, quaint place to drink, this is it.

Excellent, high quality burger and deli sandwiches . Beautiful outdoor patio .

Such an amazing space, but sit at the bar for dinner and you won't regret it.

Amazing food and the experience is all in its own!!

Order the butcher burger . Thank me later. #foodcoma

Surprisingly good pastas . Short rib ravioli was wonderful.

Went here on a Tuesday night and they were out of half a dozen ordinary menu items. Server said it was a "busy weekend." How often do they have fresh ingredients brought in???

Food was good, but there was only 1 server for lunch , so it took some time to get our order in. The waiter was great once he got to us

Wicker Park Baci Club meets here for tournaments Monday nights!

The gnocchi is so so but the drink menu has never left me disappointed. Try the steak sandwich and all their cocktails .

Good food and cool music venue

They have a rooftop patio . It's a total neighborhood hidden gem .

New City Church used to meet upstairs.

Voted Best Brunch Patio by Bitches Who Brunch in 2015! Read more

Italian Beef here rivals all others in the city

They host CU Buffaloes watch parties here!

Great burger . Good steak .

You can buy bones for your dog from the butcher here.

Great addition to wicker park . A bit pricey though

Meatgasm and solid beer menu

The restaurant got one of the orders wrong; although they tried, they just couldn't get the steak temperature right

They make a great Manhattan !
