Party Earth Review Just steps away from a stretch of the city’s rowdiest sports bars, Rockit Burger Bar offers hearty pub grub, live music, and a slightly more laid-back vibe in an upscale, but still sports-focused, environment.

Gingerman Tavern

20s / 30s / 90s Music / Actors / Beer

Party Earth Review Founded specifically for Wrigleyville heretics who don’t care a lick about the Cubs – or at least don’t care about rowdy sports bars – Gingerman Tavern attracts everyone from hardcore bikers to skinny-jeaned rockers who couldn’t tell a Hail Mary from a Bloody one. A true dive, the space features a dusty décor of old photographs ... more

20s / 30s / Alternative / Bar Food

Party Earth Review Mere steps from Wrigley Field and consisting of thirty thousand square feet of drinking and music, The Cubby Bear is a monolithic sports bar dedicated to Cubs fanaticism and live performances ranging from reggae to Grateful Dead tribute bands.

Houndstooth Saloon

20s / Bar Food / Baseball Caps

Party Earth Review Named in homage to legendary University of Alabama coach Bear Bryant and his signature houndstooth hat, Houndstooth Saloon may be in the heart of Cubs country, but there’s no doubt it’s a pure Alabama bar and headquarters for homesick Southern transplants. A mournful basset hound on the sign now wears the checkered cap ... more

Party Earth Review With lots of glowing flat-screens beckoning to Cubs fans, daily specials luring the budget-minded, and a big seasonal beer garden perfect for open air drinking, Vines on Clark fits right into the Wrigleyville bar scene without being (entirely) about baseball.

Red Ivy

20s / 30s / Button-downs / Casual / DJ

Party Earth Review On a stretch of Clark Street next to Wrigley Field where almost every business is a sports bar, Red Ivy – named for the iconic ivy on the stadium’s outfield wall – fits right in, albeit with a slightly more upscale, club-like vibe bolstered by its vaulted ceiling, sultry red lighting, and weekend DJs.

Bars in Wrigleyville Overview

Smart Bar - Club in Wrigleyville, Chicago

The Wrigleyville bar scene is pretty much exactly what every Chicago baseball fan wants: greasy food, cheap beer, and a lot of loud compatriots. Cubs fans are prevalent on and off-season, while many other brave souls spend their evenings letting loose at the multitude of sports bars in the vicinity.

On game days, spots like Sluggers and The Cubby Bear are filled to capacity with avid Cubs fans. Busy before, during, and after games, these local sports bars are generally loud and rowdy, with fans downing pints, absorbing greasy hotdogs, and vaguely paying attention to the score. On non-game days, Sluggers offers dueling pianos upstairs, while The Cubby Bear often hosts live music sets.

For those less interested in getting completely drunk for the game, spots like Rockit Burger Bar offer plenty of TVs alongside hearty pub fare and a more laid-back atmosphere. Rockit also serves up live music several nights a week, often featuring local artists looking to break into the industry.

And while it might come as a surprise, non-sports fans can find solace in Wrigleyville as well. The Gingerman Tavern is a dive bar that caters heavily to the indie Metro concert crowd, while Uncommon Ground is a café and live music venue serving sustainable food and “eco-cocktails.”
