Some day, a Logan Square hipster whose nose for craft beer is as a bloodhound's for deer will cross…read morethe tracks and realize that they have Revolution Anti-Hero and Gold Cross on tap here. If they bring volume geometry skills with them, they might be disappointed to realize that the consistently short pours here are much closer to 12 oz. (i.e. bottle/can size) than the full pint typical of draughts east of the tracks. Might as well settle for bottles and cans. But, a better reason to come here is because it's the kind of solid, friendly neighborhood bar which is becoming increasingly scarce to the east and it's not at all seedy like some spots on the western fringe of Logan Square that you might walk past to get here. Recently rehabbed from its prior incarnation as Trier's Lads, this is easily the best-kept bar within at least a mile west past Weegee's on Armitage. With numerous TVs there's not a bad seat in the house for watching a game (or horses at off-peak hours). Though Hermosa is a predominantly Latino neighborhood, English is the dominant language amongst the white & blue collar mix here, and this is your place to go if your Spanish isn't ready for La Posada across the street. So that's what they do here, they provide a social setting, they show sports on the television, and they serve beer. Friends for the friendless, drunkenness to the sober. If you happen to need something more, you can snack on the tasty plantain chips from La Casa Del Jibaro, stare at the disco ball, or reach into the box of free condoms provided courtesy of the Chicago Community Condom Project.

How haven't I reviewed Uncle Mike's yet? OK, so I live around the corner and may be biased as to…read morethis bar's excellence, but I don't think so. Uncle Mike's is a place that I didn't really pay much attention to when I moved into the neighborhood because I didn't really notice it. This place kind of gets lost in a sea of taquerias and cell phone stores on Armitage. I first came here for a Michigan basketball game in 2017. On a Sunday afternoon, the place was practically empty but all the TVs were available for whatever we wanted to watch. Steve, the owner, doesn't mind if you bring in outside food to eat (since they don't serve food) so we went across the street to our favorite burrito place and brought food back for the game. Drinks were cheap and everyone was really friendly. The owner, Steve, talked to us a few times and invited us back since he knew we lived close by. Every time I've come in since Steve recognizes me and stops and chats with me, which I appreciate. I love Uncle Mike's as a local Hermosa bar and will keep coming here as long as I'm in the neighborhood.

If you're lucky enough to be there happy hour, you also can snag a DEEP and tasty $8 old fashioned. Plenty of TVs, and a nice back patio that's dog and kid friendly. Very kind bar tenders also. In a world of frills and fluff, the place brings back the simple joys of a local watering hole.

I'd seen this bar before, because it's only a drunken winter's night stumble down the street from…read moremy abode. But I never ventured in because of the infamous house of prostitution and bucket of blood bar named "La Ultima Barca" located at the other end of Drake, at Armitage, made me" weary", like Otis Redding sang in that song about "young girls wearing that same old shaggy dress" Then I met Steve (the owner) at a CAPS meeting and figured him an OK. guy because he was wearing a NY Yankee hat. I'm not much into baseball or baseball hats, but hey, if it's New York, then, it's cool. So one night I used it for my "third date is the charm spot". I have a method. My first and second date spots are always more upscale. The third date is a dive bar then back to my place to see what develops. Uhm, I had NO idea that Steve's is a gay Latino bar, with a few six foot tall trannies(who get the dance floor juke'n- tossed in the mix) until we walked through those swinging double western doors. Don't worry, they're straight friendly as long as you are gay friendly, which I and my date were. I guess there are tell tale signs of gayness, like the disco fortified juke box ( hello Donna Summers, I missed you!) and the tiny plywood "dance hall" in the back with the disco ball hanging down from the rafters. Oh it's an interesting place y'all. Including Steve's U.S Marine full dress uniform hung behind the bar, I guess no one asked so Steve didn't tell. There are a few gangbangers who hang out two blocks down (by Simon's Park) but they don't come in and are always respectful of the place, probably because they have some family members who hang out there on the "low low". The regulars are real friendly and they do have beer and mixed drinks, but I'd stick with the beer. If you're hungry then there is canned spam, which I guess is a Puerto Rican treat. I took a pass on the spam. Steve also owns the laundry mat next door and has a camera in the bar so you can keep an eye on your clothes while you drink to make sure no body steals them. Yes my friends, Steve's has all the makings of an amazing and diverse dive bar

The food however, well , the cheeseburger was yummy but nothing to extravagant. I think the small burger was around 15 bucks and it didn't even include fries. The cheese cake was meh.

The food is always a hit - love the wings, tacos, quesadillas, burgers, etc. I would give it 5 stars but the service speed can be hit or miss depending on how busy it gets.
