More information on Old Town Ale House
This is one of Old Town's legendary saloons, a dingy neighborhood hangout since the late 1950s with a fading mural that captures the likenesses of a class of regulars from the early 1970s (John Belushi commandeered the pinball machines here during his days at the nearby Second City improv club). Put some quarters in the jukebox, which is filled with an eclectic selection of crooner tunes, and just hang out. Open daily from noon to 4am (until 5am Sat). Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
