    Without a doubt my favorite spot before/after a Cubs game. Great drinks, food, atmosphere. It's an absolute classic and not to be missed!

    Great pregame spot before any Cubs game. Get there early, gets crowded quickly. Staff is quick and efficient.. Drinks are respectively priced. Plenty TV's for the game. LOUD atmosphere.

    Bloody Mary bar on Sundays for $5. Good Mac and cheese. Good burgers. Food is pretty cheap and not that expensive. Cheap beer on GameDay. Lots of outdoor or indoor seating.

    Bleacher seats for the Cubs game? Enjoy pre and post game fun at Murphy's. Grab a table outside and enjoy!

    Great beer selection, including the only bar ive found with Three Floyd's Gumballhead on tap every day. Food good, giant portions. Also the Kansas State bar of Chicago...if you're into that.

    Rooftop bleacher bar follows wrigley fields alluvial alcohol policy so last call is the 7th inning stretch. You can bring drinks up from the bar downstairs though!

    If you have seats in the bleachers at Wrigley, come here before the game. It's right across from the entrance and you can get your first Old Style of the day in cans!

    If you request a "little gremlin" they will pour two shots of tequilla down your throat and force you to sing "home sweet home" by motley cru against your will

    Great place to hang out and karaoke, but don't leave your coat unattended or you may end up with a surprised wad of gum stuck to it.

    The burger sucks. Save your $6.75 - meat was lowest grade.
