Conrad Hilton and Chicago Fire

Hello,

We are staying in Chicago for the first time from 29th August for 5 nights. I think I%26#39;ve managed to pick up most of the information I need about sightseeing from the forum but still have a couple of questions please!

Firstly - we are staying at the Conrad Hilton which as lovely as it looks I%26#39;d imagine is a tad expensive on the drink front :)

So - are there are any good bars nearby that are just your average beers and relaxing kind of places?

Also we were hoping to catch the Chicago Fire game but its on our first night and we don%26#39;t arrive til the afternoon so its probably not worth taking the chance on no delays but I%26#39;ll be jetlagged to the max after flying from England. Are there any bars where you%26#39;d recommend watching the game instead.

Thank you!

Jo

Conrad Hilton and Chicago Fire

There are many bars near your hotel. Not many will show soccer but Fado will. I go there to watch Leeds lose every year. Rock Bottom has a lot of TVs and would put the game on if you ask and they brew their own beer. Timoth O%26#39;tooles would also show the game.

You go to watch Leeds?! I take it there are a few places to pick up the football (Premier League etc)?

We%26#39;re coming at the end of August so the league will have started again - just need to find a bar and hope its a Sunday game.

Thanks for all your help and if you can recommend any bars that we really should make an effort to go to then I promise to do my best to visit them.

It%26#39;s not downtown. But it%26#39;s accessible via public transit.

Thanks Dave! You really are a mine of information!

Fado and English are 2 bars that are a 5 minute walk from your hotel that will show games. They are both nice but I would only go there to watch a game.
