Charbroiled burgers, pitchers of sangria, and a patio
"Home of the Moody Burger, if you've been to Rogers Park before, you've probably heard of this epic spot. Founded in 1959, Moody's has been a staple to the neighborhood for decades. Take your pick of the dark, fire-lit dining room or the shady outdoor patio to enjoy their classic pub fare. And if you find yourself outside on a warm summer day, be sure to grab a pitcher of the sangria to help break the heat. You won't regret it." - Sidekick Video
"This Edgewater classic has been around since 1959, and while we weren’t regulars back then, it feels like it probably hasn’t changed a lot. The menu is short, focusing on drinks and a small selection of sandwiches and burgers, all of which are solid. But what makes Moody’s particularly special is its outdoor area. The patio, surrounded by large trees and decorated with twinkly lights, is huge, so come with a group and camp out." - adrian kane, veda kilaru, john ringor
"You come to Moody’s for two reasons—their burgers and their fantastic patio. This spot has been around since 1959, and the atmosphere doesn’t feel like it’s changed much since then. The food menu is short, focusing on drinks and a small selection of sandwiches and burgers, all of which are solid. But what makes Moody’s particularly special is the space. The patio is huge, with plenty of seating available, and surrounded by large trees and twinkling lights. If you’re here when it’s cold, though, the inside is cozy—it feels like a hunting lodge, with dark wood and two fireplaces. Whenever you’re here, come with a group and plan to stay for a while." - adrian kane, john ringor
"Moody’s up in Edgewater has two stone fireplaces from the Misanthropic Old Man collection. They’re old (which makes sense since this place has been around since 1959) with stovepipes and clearly belong in a cabin in the middle of the woods. It’s exactly where you go to drink alone, hide from the government, and burn any deeds to the land because “you’ll be damned if they take your property.”" - adrian kane, john ringor
"Moody’s has been around since 1959, and the atmosphere doesn’t seem like it’s changed much since then. In the summer, we recommend coming here primarily because of the large beer garden where you can sit and eat a burger. But the indoors is a fantastic place to hang out when it’s cold, too. It feels like a hunting lodge, with two very old-looking stone fireplaces that seem like they could plausibly have been built in the Middle Ages. Sit next to one of them and try to remember something about medieval history." - adrian kane
