John's Tavern

  2 sisters and I were looking for a new local bar to hang at once in awhile, unpretentious and with decent beer at a decent price. Since this is just a block or so away, we stopped in on a Saturday night. Nope, this ain't the place for us. People smoke inside the bar, yuck! And several of the youngsters looked too young to be out drinking. But the grumpy old men and youngsters were peacefully coexisting so that's a plus I guess.

  One of my favorite dumps. Suzy the bartender makes the strongest drinks ever. Tip her and she'll take care of you.

  Where better on a long walk home from Forest Park bars than to stop and get a beer and a carry-out 6-pack than yours truly's bar?!?  Ha, no I don't own John's Tavern.  I got drunk watching the Bears at Doc Ryan's and decided to hoof it the 3 or 4 miles home.  So, I walked Maple looking at the nice bungalows and georgian homes of Berwyn while drinking a cold beer.  
  
  And I came upon John's Tavern on 16th St. after running out of beer.  And I decided it was time to stop in for more beer here just because...they have beer.  Cold beer!
