Betsy PepperOctober 23, 2011LOVE the chicken wings/backs appetizer! Chef changes sauce/glaze all the time. Crispy, tasty, with lick-your fingers glaze, (sweet-savory apricot glaze, etc.) sophisticated and filling. A bargain.
Time Out ChicagoMarch 30, 2012Bring a date on Sunday, when you can order Sunday Gravy, a stew of meatballs, pork butt, chuck roast, braciola and hard-boiled egg. It comes with a bottle of red wine and foccacia, all for $30. Read more
Chicago FireFebruary 7, 2012Great intimate place to watch a Chicago Fire game or matches from around the world. Daily specials with great food and beer selection! Make sure to get a Daisy Cutter!- Time Out ChicagoMarch 21, 2012Two pairings fulfill your Friday-night fish cravings (through Apr 6): fried (beer-battered white fish served with a Pale Ale for $11) or seared (Wisconsin trout and Yukon potato with a Daisy Cutter).

Todd BernierMarch 7, 2015Love his place! Near my house with tons of beers on tap and good menu. Kitchen is open late -- always a plus!
Nick GDecember 3, 2011The poutine is great. The bar looks great. I've never been in here though when there are actually people. If your looking for that, swing by on a Sunday night, or Wednesday night.
Cindy KurmanApril 4, 2012Try the Chop Salad With Pickled Carrots, Bacon, Hard Egg, Buttered Croutons, Sar Vicchio Parmesan - Amazing and delicious, split with 3 others. Nice portion. $10
Blake RodgersDecember 1, 2010order a Woolly Mammoth. its not on the menu but the best burger here. bed of French fries, sausage gravy (poutine?) cheese curds, burger, Bacon, cheese, egg. 100 percent heart stopping deliciousness!
Yes, yes, it is still good. Haven't tried the new menu yet. Haven't asked it to turn on a soccer game either. ☞ Free wi-fi.
Aaron HodgeAugust 5, 201325 cent wings is an EXCELLENT deal. Make sure you grab a pint and a basket of bacon to top it off.
Miranda GregoryJuly 13, 2011this is unfortunately no longer the smallbar i knew and loved. don't care for the new menu much. best of luck to them and their new crowd.
Great beer list, great food, and friendly staff. Can never figure out why this place isn't busier.
Changed their menu recently; it's a lot mort high-end pub food now. Miss the tots but three chopped romaine salad is amazing.
U.S. SoccerJune 4, 2011Equipped with numerous TVs, jerseys and soccer scarves, Small Bar Fullerton provides a top-notch soccer viewing experience for Chicago-based MNT fans.- Time Out ChicagoMay 11, 2012Good-bye, Small Bar Fullerton. Hello, Lincoln Park outpost of this West Loop pub. Read more
If you get the tots, ask for a side of wasabi mayonnaise. Dip the tots in the mayo and make them some of the best taters in Chicago.
Brunch on Saturday/Sunday = awesome. Try the Veg for a healthy but filling option. Read more
Tall DaveMarch 30, 2013They filmed The Color Of Money here... scene when music was playing Werewolves Of London
Kevin DulinApril 24, 2015Kind of a meh atmosphere. The burgers were mediocre and the combinations aren't great. The fries are tasty though. Great beer list!
Jon SnellMay 7, 2011Saturday Brunch tastes great, perfect hangover remedy. Service is great. More room than Division.
If you're here for brunch try the corned beef hash.
Get the Sunday Fried Chicken at 5:30, you can get it before 6!
Order the bacon Jam burger and/or poutine. Great tap list w/ Midwest favoritism.
The veggie burrito is great, but with sriracha sauce is heavenly!
Cuse bar. Drink and be nervous about the NCAA tournament with fellow alums.
Left Hand Milk Stout is amazing! Guinness lovers try this!

"Cocktails are creative and delicious, the space is beautiful, and games, duh. Get there earlier though. Went there from 3-5 on a Friday, then to dinner next door, and after 5 the place was mobbed."
Jessica Zaniolo - 8.4
"Menu is really good. All burgers, pot pie, tuna steak, portobello sandwich. All really good."
Michael Binetti - 8.3
"Eclectic. This art-filled, off the beaten path tavern has seen performances by, now famous, rockers and comedians. Note the unpretentious vibe. Growing craft beer + cider list at a good value. Cheap."
