Football season is in full swing, and there’s no better way to watch the game than at your favorite sports bar with friends and plenty of beer. No matter your team affiliation (GO BEARS!), there are more than enough spots in Chicago to find your crew—and lots of them offer game day specials! Read on for our top bars to head to on game day this year.
Public House {400 North State Street, Chicago; 312.265.1240}
You won’t have to worry about finding a place to sit at this 10,000-square-foot gastropub. With big screen TVs, delicious pub grub, and over 100 beers to pick from, Public House is the place to be even in the off-season. Oh, and did we mention the food and drinks specials offered every game day all season long?
Frontier {1072 North Milwaukee Ave, Chicago; 773.772.4322}
Famous for their whole-animal meal service, this unique lodge-style restaurant is the perfect place to bring all of your football-obsessed friends on game day.

El Hefe {15 West Hubbard Street, Chicago; 312.548.6841}
Come for the game, stay for the tacos. The best seats in the house are at the bar where the combination of wall-to-wall TVs, table tap beer, and creative taco stylings—like duck carnitas and blackened mahi mahi—converge to produce the perfect game day viewing experience.

Escape the solitude of your living room, and head to The Radler for a welcoming, social atmosphere with filling German dishes and a lengthy beer list. Prepare to make a lot of new friends!
The Fifty/50 {2047 West Division Street, Chicago; 773.489.5050}
If you are looking for a more classic option for game day, The Fifty/50 delivers. Celebrate America’s favorite sport with America’s favorite foods; think burgers, barbecue, and all things fried. With two stories, a patio, and more TVs than you can count, there is not a bad seat in the house. Stop in on a weekend game day for beer bucket specials and $6 shots.
