During our visit to Chicago, my wife and I were thrilled to watch our SF Giants play against the Cubs at Wrigley Field. We were looking for a place to grab a few drinks before the game that wasn't a typical corporate bar. Bernie's caught our eye with its unique character, so we decided to check it out. Despite being a bit busy, we managed to snag two seats at the bar and quickly struck up a conversation with some friendly Cubs fans. The bartender was a bit reserved at first, but eventually warmed up to us and even offered us some tequila shots. I would definitely return to Bernie's - it's a fantastic spot to grab a drink before a baseball game!
The tequila shots are quite mediocre at $10 each. Right from the start, Maddie the Menace will pressure you to buy her one, which really throws off the bartending vibe. It’s fine to take a shot after I've had a few, but not on the first one, haha. After spending $45 on two rounds for my friend and me, including a service fee, we decided to leave. I suppose that's just how it is in Wrigleyville.
Not just a pre and post Cubs game bar. Bernie’s has a great updated interior and a pretty nice patio. Plus Maddie our bartender was super friendly even though she was pretty busy. Wings were really good
We were searching for a place to eat near Wrigley Field before a Cubs game, and we stumbled upon this hidden gem! We were unable to find a seat anywhere else just 1 hour before game time.

After a Cubs win, I am sitting here at a restaurant with a decent amount of seating. It may not be my top pick for a bar on Clark Street, but just so you know, my dog's name is Bernie.
This is a great spot to grab a drink before or after a Cubs game. I enjoyed the open-air atmosphere on the second floor, especially when seated at a table near the window.
Was racially profiled and turned away because the bouncer didn’t like my “attitude” and the manager was very confrontational as well. 0/10
The appetizers were reasonably priced and delicious, and the bartender was fantastic. The sliders were amazing! #Bravo
