Chief O'Neill's Pub & Restaurant

For a classic Chicago Irish pub experience head to Chief O’Neill’s. This decades-old neighborhood staple is decked out in old wooden church pews, historical photos, and enough Guinness memorabilia to rival the brewery. There’s even a regal painting of the chief himself hanging above their fireplace—our favorite spot in the restaurant to eat crispy fish and chips or a savory shepherd’s pie with fluffy mashed potatoes. And on Sundays, they also have a massive brunch buffet for just $32 plus live music from 5-8pm, because drinking and eating corned beef while listening to Irish folk music is classic Chicago, too.
