Husband and I stopped in for the first time to check out BINGO night. WE HAD A BLAST!! I was dazzled by all the light hanging through out the bar! I was told the place is filled with even MORE lights during the holiday season. Will be back to check those out! Our bartender, Daniele was sweet and attentive! My husband was extremely happy to see they sold Schlitz on tap and in a can! WOW! Great neighborhood tavern!

Good crowd, seems like a nice place. It was odd that the cubs game was not on though at a north side sports bar. Good to stop back by.

Checked out this cool and cluttered bar. Draft Bar is located far west on Irving Park. It's for sure a neighborhood tavern. Barely able to know it's here because it's a pretty tiny place, and there's not much reason to come to this area. The prices are pretty cheap and there's always some kind of special. A pretty small bar with a lot of crap crammed into it. It's got all kinds of junk inside and it's not like there was much room to begin with on this place. The beers are the main thing. After all, the word draft is in the name. It's $2 for an Old Style. Has a few good local craft beers. There's a few things they offer like pizza when there's a game. Best thing is the prices on drinks. It's pretty cheap for most beers, and if it's not on draft they have lots more in bottles and cans to choose from. There's not much in the way of food, but there's chips, and they may have pizza for games and whenever.

I'll take this bar over any wrigleyville Christmas pop up bar any day! Fun drinks and nice bartenders.

We had my husband's 50th birthday here, everyone had a fantastic time. Teresa the owner and her staff were great. Amanda and Jazmine the bartenders were always attentive. DJ Nardi was on point with the music. I Highly recommend this local modern and hip bar.

This is an awesome neighborhood bar. You can tell that the bartenders get to know the regulars and have always been super friendly. We did have an issue with our bill when closing out, which was an honest mistake- We were charged for our bill as well as another customer's. Called the bar owner and she was incredibly responsive and kept us updated the entire time. Situation was quickly resolved. It is worth noting that Draft does not have food- it really is only a bar. Bring some cash to stop at Bob-o's on your way home.
