Weeds Tavern Reviews

Very good neighborhood bar very comfortable welcoming place I love it

Weeds is one of those local bars where everyone knows the regulars and the yum yum is always on tap! Joe is my favorite bartender.

Have been stopping in for years great place always feel like family when I'm here Johnny, Paul and Greg are the best

Great Owner! Walk into this place and it reminds me.of Cheers where everybody knows your name

My favorite bar in Chicago. Such a cool vibe with board games, fire pits, a jukebox, pool tables, and a great staff.

The people and staff are always friendly and food is good but drinks are will served great place to just hang out and bring your pet to !

Been coming here for many years. The owner has become a great friend of mine. Always greets you and makes you feel very welcome! Awesome atmosphere. The beer garden in the summer is spectacular! Music, bean bags and fire pits included!

Not bad. The giant jinga isn't leval, but does that really matter?

So I m pretty disappointed with this place. At first I liked going here cause the bartenders are nice but the owner really irritated me. We tried to bring our dog into the bar since the owner had his dog in there and we were told NO. We asked if we could instead go to the outside patio with our dog and again he said NO. The owner at this place is a true D-bag. Won t step foot in this place again unless they allow the dog at least on the patio. I mean come on. If Earls, a classy restaurant/bar allows dogs then why can t dumpy weeds allow them. Earls continues to get my business since they know how to take care of the customer. Keep up the great job weeds!!

Open Mic Poetry Reading Mondays at 10:00PM - Sign up at 9:30PM

I have to be upfront and let you know right off the bat, this was not only my very first visit to Weeds, but also my very first Open Mic night in Chicago. With that established you are aware that I have no frame of reference of what makes a good Open Mic night or what a good service or even a good crowd is for this place. What i can say is that everyone from the Bartender to the MC, to all the clientele were all warm, welcoming and friendly. I probably would have hung out longer and schmoozed had a killer migraine not been kicking the back of my eyeballs out of their sockets. I will definitely try to get back there this coming Monday to participate in the fun again and give a glass of their red wine a try.

The poetry Open Mic was an interesting cacophony of talent, expression, cleverness, and performance swirled up in a din of bawdy introductions, spiced with profanity, blended with fresh innovation, garnished with just enough mediocre poets to make the good ones stand out, and all served steaming to your ears at a volume level only people in southern Uruguay could not hear. It would have been delightful (and from what I could see everyone who wasn't having a cranial vascular event was thoroughly having a great time) but my headache just was not going to take it.

The patrons were all from what I could see, sincere fans and very supportive, attentive and responsive to everyone who read and that makes this place a new regular hang-out for this poet and receives my official (4) out of (4) Raven feather rating. Its obviously adult-themed so not probably a place to bring dear Auntie Clarisse who gasps when someone says "Shucks" but definitely a warm and fun place to go if you are looking for something a little different and dont mind the fuc*king profanity.

Nice and friendly place, guess the night we went alot of people and only 2 severs which we had to wait a awhile for a drink.

Cool spot in the cut. Very low key with a nice neighborhood feel.
Really cool art and games outside to play! Nice choices of beverages as well. We were having too much to fun to take photos. Dig the vibe and patriotism. Peace Love and no war!

Friendly neighborhood bar. Went with a date, played Jenga on the patio while we drank. Definitely going on the weekends as one of the tamales guys makes a stop twice here Friday and Saturdays. Nice selection of beers on tap and a whiskey selection that has variety.

i've had nothing but pleasant experiences here and plan to keep coming back. the place has an awesome feel to it. i can see why they have a lot of great reviews.

A cute hole in the wall bar. I'm talking about Jenga in the backyard, jukebox, and one pool table. Best thing about this bar, you can order food to be delivered. If you don't have a backyard hang out spot with friends..check this place out!

Taco's were Great, beer $$$, great bunch people, great time!!

Nice, low-key spot with TouchTunes, a large patio, and decent prices. If the bartender, Alex, is there, order a vodka gimlet. If you don't know what it is, DO IT ANYWAY. It's the best in town!

Weeds has a great beer garden. I absolutely love the fact that you can bring your dog!! That alone gives any place 5 stars in my book. If you call ahead and bring a large group they will grill out for you too (at least Fridays they did). Where else will you find that?

I like this bar a lot. Very cool spot, low key and friendly bar tenders and patrons. Has a good selection of beer- not a lot but quality choices. Also has a brilliant outdoor patio garden that is choice for nice days and evenings. Good place to watch sports and have a beer. And the pool table is $1 a game.

Nice bar, decent selection. There was a guy on the patio making delicious tacos.

solid bar. pool table, fantastic beer selection, good music, not overly busy.

If you like beer, and bikers, this place is for you!

Glorious neighborhood bar - pleasant atmosphere and great drinks.

I didn't hate it ! I loved it" it was a lot of fun!"....

Friendly dive bar in lincoln park. Always chill and always a good bartender. I haven't tried the tacos from the action station outside but it smells good.

It's a great neighborhood sports bar to get together with family, friends, make new friends to have a drink and listen to live music.

No frills. Simple place with decent drinks and a good beer selection. Skee ball is a nice plus though!

Alexi s the best bartender. Awesome service, fun place.

The bartender likes to over serve the regulars who in turn chase customers out of the bar. Just save yourself a step and not go at all. I'm never coming back here with my friends ever.

Great bar. Mostly locals. Not a dive, but has the authentic "neighborhood" feel lots of people look for

Great low key bar. Good drink prices, great patio with outdoor games and awesome music.

GOOD TO HAVE GREAT PLACES TO EXPERIENCE WITHIN THE STATE OF CHICAGO

Positive vibes and relaxing atmosphere. The owner is always open to host new events and entertainment. I love when Weeds hosts fire dancing, and live music on the outdoor patio!

Friendly bartenders, good local beers on tap. 1 pool table, good music, great atmosphere. Everyone I bring here loves this place to talk over drinks. Almost always a seat available somewhere so you never have to fight for one, but never empty.

Warning. They serve no food, so come fed.

Make sure to order a Green Line .... well worth visiting while in Chicago and having a drink with family and friends.

Love the outdoor space with music. The owner and staff were kind and welcoming. The lighting in the evening was nice, which is a great place to hangout during the pandemic!

My favorite bar in the city. Bartenders are cool. Patrons are not stuck up. Owner is this short Mexican dude that is always up for a shot.

great chill bar! they have really cool slam poetry on mondays! great place to grab a beer after a long day of work!

My DePaul bar! Rooftop is great during the summer. $5 pizzas are a win every time

From here on out they will have a taquero. Tacos only $1.50 decent price and really good. Chicken, steak and chorizo.

The decor is marvelous, the food is excellent, the entertainment is sublime. The ambience is the key here. There's nothing like it. It's sexy and anything can happen and has happened.
Sergio is the owner and chef.

This place should not be missed by out of towners.

Small but great selection of ciders and beer on tap.

Great local place. Not a dive but very casual. There are awesome signature drinks that are seasonal. Beer list is very respectable. We love going there.

really nice place to visit. live their drink. took me little wait tho . other than that must visit for sure if you around this area
