Lemmings Tavern hero

Lemmings Tavern. Your Neighborhood Bucktown Bar.

Cozy, intimate vibes at this friendly Bucktown bar steps from the heart of Wicker Park.

Welcome to Lemmings Tavern

Afternoons and evenings, we dispense strong drink and friendly words (in rare cases, the reverse) to all who thirst and will listen. If there is one thing to be said about our bar, it is that Lemming's is a place no one visits just once. If there is another thing, it's probably: funky good time.

  • • Pinball and always-free Pool.
  • • School Night Specials for all tastes.
  • • Plenty of room for large groups and parties.
