BAR REVIEW: The Beer Bistro in the West Loop area of Chicago, Illinois
Since it’s founding in 2005, The Beer Bistro has been a haven for beer drinkers in the West Loop area. With its welcoming bar and laid back workers, The Beer Bistro is a great locale to drink and learn about beer. In fact, the bar was built out of love for beer. It’s true and says so right on their website.
When drinking one of the many beers available, do not forget to enjoy the food. The Beer Bistro has delicious food offerings and a very unique burger called the Gourmet Burger. This burger comes on a pretzel roll with peanut butter, fried egg, bacon and cheddar. Pretty unique, huh? My initial reaction before ordering the burger was “Peanut Butter? On a burger?” I decided to trust the bar tender on this one (she was right about the Sierra Nevada Brew recommendation) and ordered my first burger with peanut butter. After enjoying every flavorful bite of the Gourmet Burger, I wondered why it took me this long to combine meat with peanut butter. This delightful combination would have been ideal during my late childhood/early teen years! Needless to say, the Gourmet Burger tasted great and it really went well with the IPA I was drinking. Order it next time you are in the West Loop and you will not be disappointed.
Overall, The Beer Bistro does a nice job of balancing a mighty beer selection with a cozy neighborhood bar mentality. The servers and crowd make you feel welcomed and the food is always served to your liking.
