Jesse's Tavern

  A pool table. A stage. A bar. Cheap beer. What more else can a Chicago Ridge bar have. The only negative thing to say is there is like no parking for this place.

  I had some time to kill, & since I'm not too familiar with the nightlife spots in Chicago Ridge, I looked up the nearest place on my GPS to grab a beer. I was referred to Jesse's Tavern, a little corner dive bar.
  
  Judging by the outside, I thought maybe I was making a bad decision. I was expecting a trashy, small hole in the wall place. But when I walked in, I discovered it was quite cozy & clean. They have plenty of TV's & a jukebox (that nobody was playing). It wasn't crowded, but not empty either. They do serve food also, though I cannot tell you if it's good or bad. I'm guessing your typical bar fare, as the menu was pretty simple & small.
  
  Since all I was looking for was a place to chill for about an hour, Jesse's Tavern fulfilled my needs nicely on this night. Not a place I'd regularly frequent, but maybe when I'm 36, grow a mullet and wear leather motorcycle jackets even though I drive a sedan.

  This place is a decent bar.  It is very well kept and is rather on the new side.  The prices are typical of most neighborhood sports bars.  The have plenty of TV's dart boards and a pool table. The place is filled with Cubs memorabilia. The owners are obviously Cub fans but yet the place is filled with Sox fans.
  
  We had one of our dart league matches here on Sunday so we were in the back room most of the night.  The ventilation back there was terrible.  It was extremely warn and the smoke just hung there in the atmosphere.  I smoke and it was even bothering me.  
  
  Overall It was a good time.  The bartender was fast and friendly and the crowd was a lot of fun.  Since I have two free drinks coming to me, I will definitely be back
