Located south of Chinatown’s main strip, Ethyl’s Party is one of Chicago’s greatest divey little secrets. Home to good people, cheap beer and Blackhawks fans, there’s no better place to drink until you see ghosts.

UPchicago Bar Crawl: Old Town
We are on a mission to perfect the art of the neighborhood bar crawl… and I’m not gonna lie, I think we may have accomplished our goal with this one. Good beer, good pub food, so-bad-it’s-good karaoke, and one member mysteriously disappearing mid-crawl? Yep, we’ve officially done it.
Wells on Wells (Bar, Old Town)
Wells on Wells is a fairly low-key bar, with two flat screens, plenty of tables and a proudly displayed Iowa Hawkeyes flag.

Turtle Racing at Big Joe’s
If you’re in the 98% percentile of Americans who have never seen a turtle race, this is definitely worth a visit. Friday night at this Lincoln Square watering hole every dollar you spend on drinks buys you a raffle ticket, which positions you one step closer to sponsoring a turtle.
Hungry Brain (Bar & Music Venue, Roscoe Village)
A great bar to catch a drink at when your feet hurt; Hungry Brain is Roscoe Village’s comfiest bar.
Liberty Lounge (Bar, Roscoe Village)
Liberty is the perfect mix of blue collar, hipster, and down home Chicago. It’s no-frills but warm, just the way I like my dives.
McGee’s (Bar, Lincoln Park)
Located just off the DePaul campus in Lincoln Park, McGee’s is crawling with twenty-somethings on one mission: to get really drunk.
The Beaumont (Bar, Lincoln Park)
