Brownstone Tavern

DrinkNorth Center · Bar Community-sourced, unverified
📍 3937 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago, IL 60613

Brownstone Tavern backs up its sports-bar basics -- 15 TVs, a big sidewalk patio, a bourbon selection deep enough to run its own "Flight of the Month" program and a dedicated Bottle Shop for to-go bottles -- with a calendar that gives North Center regulars a reason to show up on a Tuesday that isn't game-related: Bourbon Tuesdays, weekly trivia, and a standing Malort Monday that's become its own small ritual.

$$
Brownstone Old Fashioned ($13) — Old Forester 100 proof, bitters, Luxardo cherry; part of an extensive bourbon/rye list with flights $10-$35.

The kitchen's Chicken and Waffles ($13.99, brunch only) and Jumbo Chicken Wings ($14.99) get ordered alongside a bourbon-forward cocktail list anchored by a $13 Brownstone Old Fashioned and a Michter's Manhattan, and there's a zero-proof menu for anyone sitting out the bourbon side of things entirely. Brunch runs Saturday and Sunday from 11am to 3pm, and the bar stays open until 1am every night but Monday and Tuesday.

It's the Friday $4 Lagunitas and $6 Moscow mules that get people in the door, but it's the Tuesday bourbon flights that keep the serious drinkers coming back.
