The Galway Arms

"This rustic boarding house-turned-Irish pub already has tons of things elevating its cozy factor—multiple intimate dining spaces, musicians at a table playing Irish tunes, and just a general feeling of camaraderie that makes this a great place to hang. But it’s their brick fireplace that ties everything together. It may not be the largest, or the brightest, but when everything else is factored in, nothing beats eating some shepherd’s pie with an expertly poured Guinness by a crackling fire.

"This Lincoln Park boarding house-turned-Irish pub is extremely cozy. It has a handful of intimate dining spaces, a regular line-up of musicians playing Irish tunes, and just a general feeling of camaraderie that makes it a fun place to hang. Plus it's even got an old brick fireplace for extra rustic charm. It might not be the biggest or the brightest fireplace, but when combined with everything else going on at The Galway Arms, nothing beats catching up with friends with some shepherd’s pie with a well-poured Guinness by a crackling fire." - John Ringor
