    Tater tots, burgers, and small batch bourbons are sublime. If Liz is your waitress, be sure to tip her real well. But watch out for interns - they're loud, boorish, and can't handle their liquor.

    This place is pretty much heaven for a Chicago Sports fan. Watched the Conference Finals between the Blackhawks and Kings this past weekend. Celebrating the victory with fellow fans was priceless.

    If you’re a sports fan, you’ll definitely enjoy Union Pub. Sit down and relax at this neighborhood bar while you catch the game on TV.

    Their buffalo chicken sandwich is made of chicken tenders, and no blue cheese. So don't get that.

    This place is alright. They had "fountain" cocktails on NFL Sunday, but they weren't very good. Decent joint, I suppose.
