In 1820 the Irish started migrating to the Chicago area as laborers. From the 1820's to 1850's the Irish immigrants would escapes hardships in their own county including the potato famine. This group would be instrumental in the building of the city as laborers including building of the Railroad and digging the canals. Today there are several reminders of their heritage at various restaurants and other areas of the Windy City which was part of my post it note experience.
Lizzie McNeill's Irish Pub is a reflection of the Irish history near the River Front. They offer a wide variety of Irish foods on their menu along with a extensive drink menu. The menu includes appetizers, salads, sandwiches, entrees, and desserts. As I was enjoying my day seeing great post it note stops like the Navy Pier, The Bean, The Crown Fountain, The River Front district, and other stops I came across this stop and discovered a very lively atmosphere where I had a fantastic cocktail. Although this cocktail was not Irish related it was still refreshing. The Classic Bahama Mama is one of their signature non-Irish Cocktail that is a blend of Captain Morgan Spiced Rum, Malibu, Orange Juice, Pineapple Juice, and a Splash of Grenadine. The drink was absolutely delicious and a nice touch to a very busy day of walking.
The service was excellent along with a very cool ambiance. There are plenty of televisions offering coverage of the local sports teams including the Cubs, White Sox, Bears, Bulls, and Blackhawks.
