We'd prefer a neat nip of whiskey to irrationally hued beer this St. Patrick's Day. Here are our favorite spots for a glass.
Great whiskey selection and friendly staff make this a Chicago favorite.
All you can eat fish and chips on Fridays and a great Scotch and British beer selection make this a solid hangout.
Chef Flanigan offers dishes that are classics with a sense of whimsy. Try the Scotch eggs!
The cocktail menu is enormous, but you can just point and pick at random—every single one is going to be good. Also awesome: the brunch menu, fried cheese curds, an abundant cheese plate... I could keep going.
Great beer selection and mussels make this a solid neighborhood resto.
Wild boar sloppy joes, warm cheese gougeres, whiskey-based cocktails–Longman & Eagle is exactly where you want to be on a cold Chicago night.
A solid whiskey list (including Scotch from India) and a menu of comfort foods means this Andersonville restaurant always attracts a crowd.
My favorite dive bar in the city is right at Belmont and Clark. Nice beer and Irish whiskey selection.
The newest outpost of Jerry's offers the same giant menu of sandwiches and beer and televisions to watch the game. The Cuban sandwich is a tasty rendition.
