The Galway Arms

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.
