  I use to go there frequently with work associates after a weeks work on Fridays. Only had the chili which was decent enough I guess. Beers and shots are cheap. Total shit hole with small piss filled toilets and bathrooms. Gotta pay for pool now which is bogus, even though it's only a $1 still a rip off. All and all a nice place to go and get blacked out drunk and forget about your problems. Will be going there until I die.

  Ok you name a bar after the local NFL team and people will come. This is a big dive dump bar near Midway airport that somewhow has not been sued yet for having this name. The food was not too bad, but the place seemed like a typical young college bar except there is not a college within miles of this place. A very beer smelling place I don't think anybody who misses this hard to find bar is not really missing anything.

  Went to this place back when I was living near Midway, eating cereal in the morning while watching Southwest Airlines beach ball themed aircraft taking off from outside my window. It's on a desolate 2 block strip of Central ave between 63rd and 65th streets. You blink, you miss it. From the outside it looked more like a penitentiary than a bar. But after walking in I was pleasantly surprised. Never tried the food but for these reasons it's worth a visit,
  
  1) It has an unofficial jail-like gimmick, not really any windows but cozy.
  2) Flat Screen TVs for sports viewing pleasure.
  3) $1 PBR pints in a frosty glass, SOLD!
  
  The Bear is definitely a diamond in the rough. A cool little neighborhood bar that I would even recommend for anyone picking up friends or family at Midway. Stop in and have a brew, it beats the hell out of waiting in a cell phone lot!

  Once again I am thoroughly disappointed.I came in for a burger and was unable to succeed at getting one.Of the 6 times I have been in here I have been able to eat what I wanted once.
  I feel bad about writing this because I really do like the place but am upset by the lack of service.
  The staff is always friendly and apologetic but I can't eat a fucking apology.

  A typical after work neigborhood bar,  but it may be the only one where a 737 may land on its roof, seated directly under the flight path of Midway Airport, it is a fun place to take visitors to before or after their flight. Decent cheap eats and most of the staff will throw you a freebie once in a while.

  Can't beat The Bear Sports Bar for a friendly drink or a great Chicago Bear Hamburger or Beef sandwich. Been to this establishment often and will definitely go back; as it is very close to Midway airport great place to wait until a loved one arrives - beats the heck out of that cell phone lot and why circle the terminal when you can have a cocktail instead. Bear You Rock!
