Murphy's Bleachers

As promised by its name, Murphy's Bleachers lies just across the street from venerable Wrigley Field. On game days, massive crowds jam into the open-air bar and spill out onto the sidewalk before and after the game. Cub fans, yuppies, and tourists enjoy cold beers, hamburgers, chicken sandwiches, and pizzas. The roof can also be rented out for groups to watch the game. At more sedate times (like October), visitors can examine the extensive collection of sports memorabilia that adorns the walls. Murphy's Bleachers has an extensive line of souvenirs, like nice sweatshirts adorned with the club's logo for those wanting to take something home other than a hangover.
