    •  

    2600 W Iowa Ave

    no phone

    Bus: 49, 66  | Directions

    Prices

    Average beer: $3.

    Description
    This inconspicuous bar is equal parts after-work dive and Antiques Roadshow. Amid dusty knickknacks and bric-a-brac, the family who runs the place will pour you a stiff drink and then try to sell you a Civil War–era revolver, a set of buffalo-themed shot glasses or anything else lying around—anything except for the patriarch’s wall-mounted marlin and the Hamm’s sign hanging out front.

    Hours

    11am–2am.
