Paddy's Irish Pub

At Random

The Port of Hamburg

2339 N Murray Ave

2501 S. Delaware Ave.

5110 South Howell
Its front side recently renovated into a veritable castle, inside you'll find friendly owners, cozy quarters, and all the M & Ms you'd care to eat.  Re-visit the 50s with lounge music, blended and ice cream drinks, a drink menu that begs you not to steal it as a souvenir, and dim lighting at the coolest place in town. It's a bar on the ground floor and a karate academy on the top level. Go for the pitchers of fine German tap beers sometimes under 8$, and go for the authentic German feast complete with Sauerbraten on Saturday mornings.

Gasthaus zur Krone

Hi-Hat Lounge

The Globe East

839 South 2nd Street

1701 N Arlington Place

 2028 East North Ave.
One of the contenders for largest local beer selections is little more than a hole in the wall but somehow manages to feel very German with its authentic sausage platters. With two levels and hidden corners, live jazz and trendy appetizers, the place screams "class". One of the reasons for Brady Street's revival. An old-fashioned stage and center bar and balcony compliment the intimate settings in this East side establishment, the best local place to catch a live band.

Great Northern Train Bar

The Landmark

Von Triers

2220 N. Farwell Ave.

E. Stewart & S. Hilbert

1300 East North Avenue
Hard to find, yes, but worth at least one trip. This bar in a train car transports you back to the 1950s complete with an odd "The Shining" like atmosphere.  Three underground bars, a bowling alley, pool tables and drink specials make this both an enormous and interesting dive. That nothing seems to have changed since the 40s enhances the place. This Eastside landmark recreates a German beer hall in a smaller setting. High ceilings and an outdoor serving area in add a nice touch, but the authentic looking back room is what really sets it apart.
