The blues bar located at 2548 N Halsted has already been fighting to stay open since founder and Chicago legend Doc Pellegrino died two years ago. Since that time the establishment has been under the direction of his daughters Donna and Lisa.<\/p>\n<p>Since closing in March, Kingston Mines has been maintaining a delivery service for their Southern-style restaurant and sealed alcoholic drinks to-go. You can still make those orders by calling Kingston Mines directly at 773-477-4646.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-123033 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/GlobeFeat.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"771\" srcset=\"https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/GlobeFeat.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/GlobeFeat-300x193.jpg 300w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/GlobeFeat-370x238.jpg 370w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/GlobeFeat-842x541.jpg 842w, https:\/\/urbanmatter.com\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/GlobeFeat-406x261.jpg 406w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">View the Best British Pub in Chicago<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Cheerio, mate.

Whether it be the DePaul intersection near Fullerton and Lincoln, Kingston Mines and B.L.U.E.S., to the north and Beaumonts or Summer House Santa Monica to the south, or the whole mess of restaurants, headlined by the critically acclaimed Alinea and fan-favorite Cafe Ba-Ba-Reeba, that line the corridor.
