Boricua! Just 4 miles west of downtown, Humboldt Park is a vibrant, simmering ethno-dimensional taco wrapped around a bustling 219-acre park. Historically diverse, culturally magnificent, with Scandinavian and Polish roots, Humboldt's now the beating heart of Chicago’s mighty Puerto Rican community. Suffice it to say, we’ve got it all: jibaritos, pierogis, ancient oaks, cold beer, cumbia, slow-pitch, good people.
Equally stunning and decrepit.
A divey neighborhood fave, tucked among quiet residential streets. Dog-friendly, so there is often a gaggle of canine regulars alongside the beardos. Board games, free pool, good jukebox, a comfortably dim interior, reasonably priced beers with monthly specials = A-OK BAR TIMES.
