1725 W Division<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n

It\u2019s a sports bar with a big flag and catchy, patriotic name. And, though very all-American, it\u2019s specifically Chicago-focused in its decor. What more could you want?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Murphy’s Bleachers<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n

3655 North Sheffield<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n

Having been a patriotic staple of Wrigleyville for over 80 years, Murphy’s Bleachers deserves an honorary spot among this all-American list.<\/span><\/p>\n

2922 W Irving Park <\/b><\/b><\/p>\n

If they have such a thing as \u201cWing Night\u201d ($.50 wings + $4 drafts), then you know it\u2019s as American as it gets. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Eleven City Diner<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n

1112 S Wabash<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n

Okay, so more of a restaurant, but there\u2019s nothin\u2019 stopping you from ordering a beer with your burger at this place. That\u2019s the American way. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Derby<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n

You guessed it\u2014this place is all Kentucky Derby style, and it\u2019s southern-themed menu items are in the running for some of the best in Chicago. <\/span><\/p>\n

3800 N Pulaski<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n

I couldn\u2019t complete this list without some damn good BBQ to hold you over. That and a shot of whiskey, and you\u2019ll feel\u00a0like freakin’ Uncle Sam.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Wishbone<\/a><\/h2>\n

I mean, c\u2019mon. This place has over 100 TVs. What\u2019s more American than that?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Firewater Saloon<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n
