Cold beer and hot weather are a match made in heaven like Christmas and hot cocoa, or a rainy day and a good book. Fortunately for us, Chicago is home to some of the most innovative and iconic breweries in the country. There’s no shortage of good brews in town, and these patios in Wrigleyville are designed with beer lovers in mind.

Konbini & Kanpai

Konbini & Kanpai in Wrigleyville offer a wide variety of craft beers and sake for you to enjoy. Their outdoor patio sits peacefully in the space with warm wood paneling and plenty of seating for you and your gang. Sip on familiar favorites, or change it up as you sift through their drink menus and take in the al fresco atmosphere.

Pilot Project

New to the area, Pilot Project Brewing is a wildly successful and stylish beverage incubator, tasting room, and restaurant with quintessential Midwest locations in Milwaukee and Logan Square. There’s always a new brew to be had, and the extensive menu here covers Lagers, Ales, IPAs, THC-Infused, craft cocktails, and so much more. The patio is very spacious and perfect for larger groups and mingling. Local promotions and events guarantee community engagement and fresh experiences. Most recently, their Dog Days of Summer invites guests to bring their pups to share in the fun.

Lucky Dorr Patio & Tap

Lucky Dorr is just steps away from Wrigley Field, and their bar and patio is keenly focused on the local craft beer experience. Their taproom hosts several local brewing companies like Crystal Lake Brewing, Illuminated Brew Works, and Alarmist Brewing— just to name a few. Their patio space is neatly fitted into the Gallagher Way alley, with cool breezes coming through and the cheers of Cubs fans in the distance.

Sheffield’s Wine & Beer Garden

If you’ve been looking for a cozy, rustic outdoor garden space to visit with your friends look no further. Sheffield’s Beer and Wine Garden offers a slightly different vibe than the rest of the Wrigleyville strip, with laid back dining and good sips at the forefront. Draft beer is on tap at all four of their bars, and you can indulge in classic BBQ fare and sides from the kitchen.

Uncommon Ground

Watching the sidewalk cafe at Uncommon Ground bloom with color is one of the neighborhood indicators that summer has arrived. Their green patio features umbrella seating and a vibrant dining experience, made complete with brews from Greenstar Brewing located inside. Remarked as the 1st certified organic brewery in Illinois, Greenstar Brewing is a great American beer festival gold medal winner that hosts a plethora of delicious brews on tap. Their organic beer list for the summer has just been released to much acclaim, and the patio outside couldn’t offer a better spot to enjoy each item in.
