Short review - Cole's is
cool.
It's sort of divey-ish in a nice way. Not a dump by any
means, and unlike a true dive, they offer a good selection
of beers on tap and in bottles, along with the PBR and
Miller staples.
The bartenders, owner and patrons all seemed really
friendly. No pretensions here. The bar is mostly populated
with local Logan Square kids. And everyone is having a good
time.
There was an open mic comedy night when I came here, which
was fun, but not necessarily funny. They actually have
another room at the back of the bar which surprised me
because from the outside, I assumed it was just one room.
This place felt very comfortable. And I like having a place
like this in my neighborhood that is not overly fancy or
hipsterish, no douchebags, but not a complete dive either.
I'll probably be making this one of my favorite go-to bars
as it is close to me and has everything I need.
The only time when I might not come here is if there is live
music. I haven't been there to see it yet, so it might be
ok, but I just get a little tired of every bar in the city
hosting live music when all you want is a place you can
drink and talk at a reasonable volume.
The Top 10
Reasons Why I Love Cole's:
1. The draft selection is awesome
2. No cover for bands and other live events
3. I can drink with Kermit, although he usually out drinks
me
4. Great selection of music on their iTunes
5. Bottle service for Malort (ok, not really but it was a
funny idea)
6. I can walk there from my place
7. Though I have not done so yet I can get pollo delivered
from across the street
8. They do not judge me when I pay for my beers with
quarters
9. The douchebag level is extremely low - the patrons are
varied and wonderfully nice
10. I have my regular seat at the bar
Viva Cole's and the fantastic staff!
