The Boundary

Fun game day bar!
Big bar, great tv's to watch the game, but gets CROWDED on Saturdays....

Typical bar, nothing special though. Decent bar food from the flatbread, tater tots, and veggie panini.

Solid, but not spectacular place in Wicker Park.  Been there many times, including last night before the Hawks game (10 percent off if you show your ticket).

Food is always good, never great.  However, after being open for several years now, I wish they would change up the menu a bit.  It has barely ever changed since day one.

I went to The Boundary with some friends last Saturday around 8PM for dinner.  Two things to know about me: A) I'm not a sports fan.  B) I'm not a "club" fan.  I don't mind having lots of TV's mounted playing a game, I expect that.  What I wasn't a big fan of was the DJ that was blasting music from the balcony.  I understand that just because it doesn't fit my personal taste doesn't necessarily mean that its awful.  But this wasn't a club - there was hardly anyone dancing nor any room for it.  I found it distracting and annoying; I couldn't talk to the people at my table without saying "WHATT!?"  The food was also just OK.  I got a Black and Bleu burger, which I usually enjoy from restaurant to restaurant.  But the burger itself was bland, and the cheese wasn't bleu at all, but gorgonzola.  My friends seemed to enjoy their particular meals, but my cousin and I didn't have anything nice to say about our burgers.  An interesting addition in the back of the bar/restaurant was a shuffle board, but this is just another example of Boundary's schizophrenic nature.  Is it a sports bar?  Is it a club?  I can't answer that, and neither can The Boundary.
