    I know, 5 stars for a divey liquor store and beer cooler seems odd. However, this was exactly the place I had been looking for in Chicago. I was actually at another very nice whiskey bar and restaurant, and when the waiter saw me fumbling for a bourbon to order, he said "you know where you should really go, Go." I was like, are you asking me to leave? Turns out he was dead on. The dim lights, 300+ options, the riff raff...magical I tell ya, magical.

    Okay so it may seem like I work for this place but I don't, I'm just incredibly enthusiastic and I have some time on my hands. I also frequent the place because I love it so much. I just added photos of the current menus and the new exterior. I'd hate for Yelpers to get confused. But really, guys, c'mon. Do you like craft beer? All craft beer drafts are between $2.50 and $4. You can't beat that. Last night we were drinking Anchor, Sierra Nevada and Great Lakes bottles for $1 because they were on special. $1!!! That's cheaper than if I bought them in a 12 pack. Not into craft beer? Okay, well PBR drafts are $1.75 and Miller and Bud are $1.50. I would never recommend you opt for those over the craft selection but to each their own, old schoolers. They have a huge selection of bottles and cans, and their whiskey selection is top notch. We tried this really rare (and normally astronomically expensive) Goose Island bourbon barrel aged beer for only $10 a bottle. That's a steal compared to any of the other few places that you can find it at. If you're into shooters, or if you're feeling a little adventurous, try the lemon drop shooters (only $1.50 if you 'like' Go Tavern on Facebook) or Thin Mint shooters. I'm not big into girly drinks, but I always end up getting one of these every time I'm there because they taste like candy but they are STRONG. Definitely a good combination. There are 3 large TVs that are always playing whatever game is on. Obviously Mike and all of the staff at Go Tavern are awesome. Everyone who frequents the place knows that. This is such a great neighborhood dive bar that even if you're visiting you'll feel like you live around the corner and have been going here for years. There is a really strange yet wonderful camaraderie among the patrons that I feel is lost in most bars these days. If you want you can sit at the bar by yourself and watch the game in peace, or if you're feeling social there are plenty of friendly people who are up for good (or at least fun drunk) conversation. This is a great place to go to alone or with a group. Again, gotta love the snack selection. Since it is a liquor/convenience store as well a bar there are tons of awesome cheap snacks. Also the tamale guy has been known to make appearances as well as pizza guys selling $8 pizzas. So obviously my review is meant to encourage people to come, however if you suck and don't see the charm in a slashie dive then don't bother coming. I say this mainly because I'm usually there and I don't want to hear stuck up people complaining that this is nothing like the Aviary. It's not. Know what you're getting into and know what you're getting into is awesome.

    They have a wide variety of craft beer/liquor.  If they dont have it its probly not worth drinking. Its also bring your own food.

    Big selection of craftbeer and spirits. New patio to enjoy those rare sunny chicago days. You can bring your own food. They have endless craft beer at the cheapest prices in town. If they dont got it it's probly not worth drinking!!!

    For $5 and great imagination.. you can make your own art!

    When a restaurant is 90 + years old, you know they are doing something right. Turns out they do…read moreeverything right. The decor looks historic with dark wood walls, beautiful molding, and of course antique sports memorabilia. It is in Chicago after all!! The menu items that were highlighted was the prime rib, while supplies last and the ribs. I tried to go with the prime rib but at 7:30 it was sold out. The bartenders suggested the French dip sandwich with shaved prime rib but went with the ribs instead. Smoked daily the ribs were tender and moist with a very sweet homemade BBQ sauce. I prefer my sauce on the spicy side but it was delicious, the shrimp were fried and crispy, served with fresh cocktail sauce. I opted for the fries and side salad but were good. The Greek vinaigrette dressing was delicious. The bartender was super engaging and knowledgeable. I hat his signature Ole Fashion and a glass of cab from their list. Both were great You need to eat here!!

    After many years of walking past Miller's Pub I finally had the opportunity to have dinner there…read more The inside of the pub is dark wood with lots of pictures of the family that owns Miller's Pub plus pictures of celebrities who have been there. The decor is straight from the 60s or 70s. The menu has something for everyone from ribs to prime rib to burgers. The waitstaff is friendly and efficient. The food was good. Our only one issue is the waiter told us the lamb chop special was gone so my husband ordered the pork chops but what was served were lamb chops. He ate them so we didn't say anything to the waiter but it was strange because the bill listed lamb chops not pork chops. Maybe they weren't gone after all? Over all I'll be keeping Miller's Pub in mind when we need somewhere to go for dinner or lunch and don't necessarily want fast food or the latest hot restaurant.
