RIVER NORTH. This diminutive Irish pub draws a mix of locals that like to swill Harp and Guinness and listen to the jukebox as they relax in front of the fireplace. The menu includes a mix of basic bar eats, including burgers, appetizers, salads, and sandwiches. Of course, many of the items are Irish in nature, like the Irish stew and the corned beef sandwich. |

Description:
MAGNIFICENT MILE. This tavern boasts quite an interesting history. It was made popular by a "Saturday Night Live" sketch in which short-order cooks yell "cheezborger." Even before the humorous SNL bit, however, the place had quite a reputation. The original owner, William Sianis, apparently cursed the Cubs' owners because of their refusal to allow his billy goat into the stands. So far, the curse has stood strong – the Cubs haven't won a championship since. Despite its fame, the bar is pretty basic in nature, focusing on good beer and, what else, cheeseburgers! |

RIVER NORTH. Although HOB features live blues every night at 10pm, it's far from being just a blues place. National, international, and local groups of all musical stylings show up to play in the intimate concert hall with great acoustics. The multi-floored complex is decorated in a funky juke joint-meets-the-opera house style that features folk and Outsider art. Numerous opera boxes offer great views, and the Foundation Room (members only) is a luxurious treat. |

THE LOOP. Miller's decorates its walls with photos of famous folks who've graced the bar with their presence. The place has been around since 1935, so it has seen its share of foot traffic. And patrons keep coming back to order drinks, watch a game on TV, and fill up from the menu, which includes Italian dishes, seafood, salads, and beef. Time-tested, the baby back ribs and homemade barbecue sauce are legendary. |

Not surprisingly, the lounge is festooned with crimson draperies and lavish chandeliers. The interior also offers posh displays of traditional Impressionist art. The luxuriant meeting spot will remind you that you don't need to see the Sears Tower to get a feel for the city. |
