"Christies happens to be tolerable while also being in the middle of Uptown, maybe because it lives up to its reputation as the Cheers of the neighborhood. The patrons are sports fans first, “I work in finance” second, and the wait staff is helpful and down-to-earth. Plus Christies fulfills the two basic and non-negotiable requirements for sports bars: a comical amount of HD TVs and calorie-dense, cheese-smothered food that doesn’t suck." - Alaena Hostetter
