BAR REVIEW: Ginger’s Ale House in the Lakeview area of Chicago, Illinois
Manchester United fans look no further than Ginger’s Ale House. This Irish/English Bar in Wrigleyville is home to the Manchester United Fans of Chicago. Aside from being a great Soccer Bar, Ginger’s Ale House is a splendid bar. Decent ales from England and Ireland and a fantastic brunch menu help make this Ale House a stand out. You must try the Traditional Breakfast: A fantastic feast that is a remedy for hangovers and hungry stomachs.
The bar is split up into 3 sections and each section is filled with televisions, beer and a lively crowd. It is not hard to see why Ginger’s Ale House was once voted “Best Soccer Bar” by USSOCCER.COM for 4 years in a row. In addition to broadcasting the big soccer matches from all the soccer/football leagues, you can also catch Rugby games and play wicked games of Darts.
You can expect any big Rugby game or Soccer Match to attract the big crowds, so make sure you arrive early to get a good spot in front of one of the many televisions. When you arrive early, make sure to sit in Sheila’s section and she will make you feel special with her Irish accent and great service.
Overall, Ginger’s Ale House is a marvelous bar on the North Side of Chicago. It is not a pretty bar like Fado’s, but it does have that Irish charm. The ales found at this ale house are great, but they are the typical Pub/Ale House selection. What sets Ginger’s Ale House apart from the other bars are the passionate fans and the Bangers that are part of the Traditional Breakfast. Ginger’s Ale House is located at 3801 N. Ashland Avenue in Chicago, Illinois, USA. Phone: 773-348-2767.
