Roundhouse Sports Bar

Roundhouse is a sports bar in Logan Square with lots of TVs that would be a great place to watch a game (or match, or tournament, or race…or whatever event is on). There doesn’t seem to be an allegiance to any particular team or sport, apart from bowling alley decor and martial arts signs circa The Karate Kid. It’s located on a quiet stretch of Milwaukee Ave. filled with spots that close early, and when a game isn’t on this place can feel dead—despite playing some pretty solid bangers from the Nellyville era and having a solid list of local beers on tap. You’ll need one of those (plus a liter of water) to counteract the eclectic menu of Chinese-influenced bar food: dishes like Italian beef fried rice, cheeseburger egg rolls, and Mongolian beef nachos, which, while tasty, all verge on being too salty.
