Cool old dive bar. Cash only. Funny political pictures. Not conservative if that would offend you and risky. Cash only. Definitely a stop. Antony Bourdain filmed a clip there.
I am a natural born and raised within the Chicago city limits Chicagoan and traveled throughout the U.S. Of the hundreds of dive bars I visited, Old Town Ale House is the best. It is like the Smithsonian of dive bars. No B.S. tolerated here. Good people, good service, great brews and spirits. Very progressive as well. Check out the very eclectic tunes on the jukebox. Well worth the visit.
Nothing else like it. A dive bar grown ups. The character of the place between the walls stacked with paintings and curated jukebox give this place truly unique vibes.
Beautiful bar! It has an amazing atmosphere! Visited after seeing Tony Bourdain was there before. Highly recommend a visit. Bring cash 😁
*CASH ONLY BAR* Stumbled upon this dive bar before a second city show across the street. It was so funny, the bar owner is a painter and the bar is filled with his art. Thankfully he's good the the art is funny (there was a lot of anti-trump commentary). Drinks were cheap there were comfy chairs, so I liked it.
Man what an awesome place. Led here by the Anthony Bourdain segment on Chicago foods. It’s an amazing place, rich in heritage and soaked in good humor painting. Friendly patron. Excellent staff. Really enjoyed the visit. Full bar. Cash only with an ATM handy.
Excellent old fashioned, cool atmosphere. The artwork behind the bar is particularly enjoyable.
Cool dive bar. It’s cash only, drinks are reasonably priced. It is a rather small place, but nice spot nonetheless.
