Gman Tavern

DrinkWrigleyville · Bar / Live Music Venue Community-sourced, unverified
📍 3740 N Clark St, Chicago, IL 60613

Gman Tavern wears its commitment on its sleeve: open 365 days a year, never closing early, opening two hours before every single Cubs home game since it sits practically over the left field wall.

A confirmed weekday happy hour ($2 off drafts/well, $3 Malort, $6 Chicago Handshake) — Chicago Reader's Best Neighborhood Bar 2025

It won the Chicago Reader's Best Neighborhood Bar in the 2025 Best of Chicago poll, and the appeal is straightforward — a real vinyl collection (the tagline is literally 'VINYL OFTEN'), live music, and a genuinely confirmed weekday happy hour from 3 to 6pm: $2 off every draft and well drink, $3 Malort shots, and a $6 Chicago Handshake.

The one exception is Cubs home games, when the happy hour pauses — a small price for being one of the most reliably open bars in the neighborhood.
