Erik RowleyJuly 1, 2019The hippest Abe Lincoln bar this side of Springfield. Live music, tall-boy Oberon beer for under $10, bartenders that wear their t-shirts to their knees but treat you like you’re the bees-knees!
PaddyApril 16, 2016Quite a good Logan Sq dive bar. Beer selection was diverse and plentiful like any good dive bar should be. Friendly bartender makes it a very enjoyable place.
Samantha KuhnOctober 24, 2012This bar is not a hipster bar, it's just the ultimate 20 something bar...I feel like I'm in the movie Reality Bites. Reasonable prices, great music, and the most adorable bartender ever. So perfect.
ChicagoistAugust 1, 2014Most of the bartenders, who happen to be inhumanly nice, are in pop and rock bands that take the stage on occasion, but you’ll hear everything from hip hop to folk. Read more
$2 PBR and live music. A grungy, hipster-laden dive bar that's a fun stop for anyone drinking up and down Milwaukee Avenue.
Jaye JalsoMay 22, 2013Hipster haven, but decent booze & they are the best of the hipsters in LS. Put on a dirty shirt & don't be pretentious & you'll have a good time
friendliest staff in LS! cheap, strong drinks. chill atmosphere. live music. non-pretentious hipsters. i love cole's!
Joseph B.August 27, 2014Probably the best drink prices in Logan and Wicker. Chill people, good bartenders.
Rob CorneliusMarch 1, 2017One of my favourite bars for shooting pool in Chicago. Always good competition.
Steven AndersonApril 25, 2010Check out I Lost Control perform original post-punk, indie rock on May 8th. Grab one of the many great beers on tap, hang with the hipsters, shoot pool, and then head to the back room for the music. Read more
Yazmin LeyvaJuly 4, 2018Free standup on Wednesday and live music on the weekends. A shitload of hipsters though.
Audrey LeonDecember 27, 2011Cozy watering hole where you can catch relatively good music for free. Extra points for having bottled Purple Haze.
Andrew HealanMay 27, 2014don't let the negative restroom graffiti get you down, this place has a positive vibe
ManbqueFebruary 17, 2011Got a fixie? You'll need knee surgery in a few years. Grab a beer. I bet you'll choose a PBR.
Steven VanceNovember 1, 2013Never a cover and almost always never a line (unless there's a popular band)
According to these tips I must be a hipster but this place rules. No cover for shows, cheap drinks.
Erin PolgreenNovember 11, 2009Go to Cole's and have Anong Thai delivered. The Trois Pistoles is surprisingly good with Pad Thai.
Time Out ChicagoApril 8, 2010When to go: Wednesday night is open mike night, but cover acts are discouraged. Read more
