Almost Home Tavern & Grill 7.6
Wrigleyville
Vibes: Sports Bar Central Group Dining Gatherings Happy Hour Hotspots Trendy Table Hotspots
A newer neighborhood tavern that aims for scratch-made comfort food with a clean, modern sports-bar setup. It works best as a casual group hang—order one pizza or sandwich lane, add one fried shareable, and keep expectations in the bar-food zone. The room is built for watching games without feeling stuck in a dive.
Must-Try Dishes: Tavern-style pizza, Fried chicken sandwich, Wings

Insider tip: Pick one main lane (pizza or sandwiches) to avoid order sprawl.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Metered street parking in the surrounding Wrigleyville blocks; availability drops significantly on game days and after 6pm.
Dress code: Casual and sporty—jeans, sneakers, and team gear all fit right in.
Noise level: Moderate to loud during games; manageable for conversation when no major events are on.
Weekend wait: 20–40 minutes during peak game windows; shorter on non-game nights.
Weekday lunch: Typically no wait or a short sit-down.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Some options available, mainly salads, sides, and pizza adaptations.
Vegan options: Limited—likely requires menu modifications.
Gluten-free options: Limited—some naturally gluten-free items, but cross-contamination is possible.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Better for a low-pressure, casual meet-up than a romantic first date—sports energy can dominate the room.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes, especially on weekdays or outside of game times; arrive early on weekends for the best odds.
Is it kid-friendly? Generally yes during daytime hours, though evenings skew more adult and sports-focused.
Best For
Better for: Casual group hangs where watching the game matters as much as eating.
Skip if: You want a quiet dinner, a polished date-night feel, or chef-driven food.
