Swerski’s: A Chicago Pop Up Bar for Superfans

Da Bears are “popping up” this September in the form of a limited-time lounge ready to impress fans of our city’s football team. In celebration of the Chicago Bears’ 100th year, Timothy O’Toole’s Pub in Streeterville will transform their private bar room into “Swerski’s, A Chicago Pop Up Bar for Superfans.” Bill Swerski and his “superfans” are the infamous SNL characters that embody the tried and true that root on the orange and blue.

Swerski’s, A Chicago Pop Up Bar for Superfans will feature decor similar to the SNL set, a Chicago Bears-themed food and drink menu, photo opportunity backdrops and props, merchandise and more. Guests that choose to enjoy a Miller Lite while they toast to the Monsters of the Midway will receive a complimentary Swerski’s koozie.

Chef Corey Grupe’s special menu is detailed below. The pop-up bar’s grand opening will be Thursday, September 5 from 2 p.m. to 3 a.m. The regular hours for Swerski’s will be Thursday-Friday, 5:30 p.m.-4 a.m. and Saturday-Sunday, 11 a.m.-3 a.m. through football season.
