Anyone has suggestions ? Looking for variety of beers (Europeans), atmosphere and decent food.
Map Room by Damen & Armitage
Hopleaf Bar by Foster and Clark
Resi Bierstube by Damen and Irving Park
RAM Brewery in Schaumburg
and in terms of places to buy liquor there's one by North Ave & Clybourne
Actaully I heard there is another place with a large selection to get beer around Ogden & Grand but I do not know the name and never been.
What else is there ?

I vote RAM off the list based on thread title.
Whats the criteria? Atmosphere? Selection? Women? Micro-brew?

Well see we differ in what we look for in a (beer) bar.
To me selection, atmosphere are more important than microbrew. And I never go there to pick up women - either I go with a girl or I go there with friends. Obviously locations may differ depending on the entourage.
I am also guilty of having been to Bar Louie in Evanston more times than i have been to Evanston (if that is possible !!! ha ha). We also have one by the school which I do not like.

So quiet and relaxed, not too noisy, decent selection and good prices? I use to really like Sheffield's but service has gone to shit over the past year.
Why do I go to a bar? :munch:
