Mr C’s Midway Bar Inc

Best Moscow Mule in town; Sox Fans. Barkeep got robbed my tab and tip by two and a half great whales, beware the whales.

My first ever review. Walked here from the airport because I had time before my flight and didn’t feel like paying airport prices for beer. Atmosphere was very much a true working man’s dive bar which I love. Beer and liquor selection were very impressive. I had 3 different beers from local Chicago breweries. Prices were incredible. Didn’t pay more than $ 3 for a beer. There was a small bar fight while I was there which provided some entertainment as well. Highly recommend.

Great local dive bar! I’m working at the Midway Airport for a month and this is were a lot of the airport personnel grab a drink after work.

Better bring a coat in the winter time… temp is set for just the guys and fat ass women

Best little hole-​in-​the-​wall around Midway! They have cheap drinks that are good. It’s a small place, not a lot of seats and no kitchen but they let you bring food inside. It’s all about the drinks, music (provided by a electronic jukebox) and good company and conversation.

The atmosphere was reminiscent of somewhere I had spent years learning each customer and employee. However, I’ve only been here one time. This was immediately the most welcoming establishment I have ever been to in my life. Danny was attentive and friendly. I will undoubtedly come here again just for the atmosphere. Thanks for the experience!

Best Damn bar ever great service neighborhood bar I suggest every one go here then get food at menolos tamales

Mr. Cs is a great place. Friendly locals, great atmosphere, and great selection of snacks. My favorite part was the chilled Yagr. Mr. Cs is a must stop for everyone!

If you’re into a super authentic and fun Chicago experience, this is your place. Found this amazing hole in the wall after a guy at the airport recommended «Chilis or Applebee’s”(HAHA) to watch our big game after getting into Midway. Yeah Right. So happy Unilocal led us here! Amazing atmosphere, wonderful local people, cheap but delicious drinks and the owner behind the bar telling amazing life stories. Plus TONS of huge TVs we watched the Game on! Such a great experience. Couldn’t be more happy. tip: Try his Apple Pie shot.

Mr. C’s is an old skool dive. You will make plenty of friends here. Drinks are strong. Come for good times.

best bar near the airport. open until 2 am and an inviting and friendly staff. cheap drink. 3.50 Jameson shots, 3 dollar micro brews. couldn’t be better for the layover from hell

Bartender was awesome. Bar felt safe and inviting. Enjoyed chatting with him! Can’t wait to come back. !!!

What a trendy little dive back… reminds me of the dives I love so much back home in Baltimore, hon! I enjoyed the service, the drinks and the overall vibe. I frequent into Chicago for business and I plan to make Mr. C’s a personal staple stop. Plus, you really can’t beat the prices here — when you’re throwing back a couple of mixed drinks and catching a game!

The guy who owns this place, Andy, is a great character. He takes a huge amount of pride in this place and taking care of the customers.
It’s old, it’s a dive, and it’s got great drink prices. The people are usually talkative and there is often a good mix of locals and airline employees. You be surprised the brain power in this place and sometimes you end up in a great conversation about distant travels or local politics. It’s always a great time.
There are photos of yesteryear and the airplanes and pilots that frequented Midway back when it was the busiest airport in the world. You get a history lesson, a good time, and cheap drinks all in one.
A good place to hang out for a while. Worth at least one visit.

Great tiny dive bar next to midway. Im born and raised in da neighborhood and have been drinking with Andy for the past 10 years. It’s always a crapshoot walking in there but there’s almost always a crowd. Drinks are prolly some of the cheapest you’ll find in the city. He makes a couple signature drinks and shots that are yummy. Very eclectic mix of people from locals to city workers to the airline industry. Don’t get your hopes up like your going to a club. It’s a shot and beer joint and they’re about having a good time… ALL THE TIME!

Mr. Andy thank you for having such a wonderful bar!!!
Came into town & my friends told me Mr. C’s is the best dive in bar in the south side! I agree!!! Prices are on point! I can’t wait to be back and hit up Mr. C’s.
Btw try Andy’s apple pie shot! It’s so delicious!

Great Beer Selection

With the advent of ‘trendy dive bars’, it’s really nice to come to a place that was, is, and always WILL be a great dive.
Their selections are great. Nothing that you’re gonna hold your pinkie up while drinking, but enough stuff so that even if you’re not a Miller Lite fan, you’ll have options. Nothing too highbrow, but you also won’t see hipsters slinging back PBR’s. As said before, it’s usually a crew of locals here, and most of them are airline employees and police. Careful– YOU WILL MAKE FRIENDS. Douchebaggery is absolutely NOT tolerated here, and will be handled promptly.
Grab a drink and meet some folks. Talk to the bartenders, they’re all top-​notch folks. And if you get too schmammernated there will probably be someone to give you a ride if you live nearby.

A GREAT HOLE IN THE WALL DIVE!
This is one of the most fun bars I have been too. Besides the smoke, it is a blast.
The clientele is Airline folks, Police, and a gang of regulars. Some random nights are more packed than others, and it is always fun when the music is goin, and drinks are flowin.
As far as what to wear, whatever. There is a mix of people getting off work and locals with jeans and Ts. Wear something you wouldn’t mind having to wash the next day to get the smoke out of.
Andy, the owner, is a great bartender and makes damn good shots. Try the Jaeger Bomb, or Southern Blues, or a Red Headed Slut.
Enjoy the good time.
