    Hey-

    Just curious if anyone knows a good beer bar in the south loop. Looking to hang out a bit before the gold cup final. USA! USA!

    thanks.

    Not super close to Soldier Field, but Hackney's is a good option in the South Loop/Printer's Row area...

    p.s. - hopefully you see this response before the entire thread is deleted because you've inadvertently dared to acknowledge that sports exist...

    :wink:

    Reggie's usually has a decent selection. It's about a 20 minute walk from the stadium. Then Skylark is probably 20 minutes west of that as well.

    Definitely hit up Skylark. Only 2.5 miles from the stadium and they have the cheapest craft beer prices for a bar in the city. Always a solid tap list too. You can check the list on beermenus.

    Binny's South Loop has taps. Then go across the street to Manny's Deli and have a sandwich the size of your head.

    I'll second Reggies. They actually have a free shuttle bus to the Gold Cup final (and most other sporting events/major concerts; it's a great place to pregame pretty much anything in this town). Sit up on the roof deck if you can, it's one of the best patio decks in the city IMO.

    Villians has been closed since last September. Hackney's is great and I second the Binny's South Loop off Roosevelt suggestion.
