This lively pub in Chicago is the perfect spot for casual bites and holiday cocktails, boasting tons of TVs for sports and a welcoming vibe.
"This Chicago sports bar has been around since 1992 in Streeterville, meaning the Bears fans have had only one Super Bowl appearance to celebrate since the bar’s been open. But fans can’t blame the Buffalo wings. These moist pieces of meat have a decent amount of red pepper spicy, aren’t too messy, and are well-balanced. While the Buffalo is the king, there are seven other sauces including sweet Thai chili and the Irish ghost (which is a Buffalo variant with ghost pepper powder)." - Ashok Selvam
"Since 1992, this lower-level Streeterville family-owned tavern has been a favorite for sports-viewing fans with some 48 beers on tap, award-winning wings, and hearty burgers." - Lisa Shames, Ashok Selvam
