Time Out Chicago: You may find yourself with a bill for $2 burgers or free wings. Celtic Crown is worth a visit for above average bar food. The corned-beef sandwich is satisfying, as is the baked barbecue-rib plate.
Time Out Chicago: With brogues, shepherd’s pie and Guinness pints, this Irish pub is the real deal. Try the char-grilled skirt-steak sandwich, turkey-and-corned-beef reubens, and massive Bass Ale–battered onion rings.
Time Out Chicago: This spot is putting pounds on the pub scene, with drinks like a St. Germain Champagne cocktail and U.K. classics like fish-and-chips. The Newcastle-battered cod is crispy, the fried egg BLT heavy.
Time Out Chicago: This Irish bistro serves modern food. Guinness is in the onion–and–white cheddar soup, beef stew and the mac and cheese served alongside barbecue ribs. Also stop by for a great Irish whiskey.

Time Out Chicago: Go greasy with the “toastie special,” a buttery, oniony, cheesy grilled sandwich that’s all the rage in Ireland. It's perfect for the drunk, the hungover and anybody trying to pack on the pounds.
