Good old classic looking bar. It's not quite a dive bar because while it looks kind of crappy on the outside, it's a lot nicer inside, but still not too fancy though. EZ Inn is an easy place to have fun. Has lots of beers, mostly in bottles and cans. There's also strong cocktails that are stiff. A pretty cool hipster vibe in here. It's bigger than it looks. There's a lot of seating, whether at the bar or in the back at a table. Most people here seem to get the cheap beer. There's something for pretty much everyone. It's about $11 for one of the better cocktails. Long Islands and other easy to drink stuff. Atmosphere changes. This is quiet most days, then on the weekends they may have a DJ and it will get loud. Bathrooms are interesting. It's covered with graffiti all over, with some entertaining reading material. There's also a pretty cool jukebox and music for any taste.

Chill local "divey" bar with amazing specials. Large space with plenty of seating and perhaps an area to dance if that's your thing :)

TLDR: Retro bar with reasonable prices and a great staff. Perfect neighborhood watering hole. Vibe: 5/5. When you walk inside, it's like you are stepping back in time to the 70-80s. Vintage decor is littered throughout the bar which in itself is worth the visit. Service: 4/5. Bar staff was quick to serve and polite. We came towards closing time and they gave us a 20 minutes heads-up for last call. Other then that, nothing else was noteworthy. Drinks: 4/5. Affordable drinks and a decent selection of cocktails. Being this was our first time in Chicago, we opted for the right of passage Chicago handshakes which includes a shot of Malortt and a Hamm's draft. Everything came out cold and lived up to it's reputation (yuck). Definitely a neighborhood bar I would frequent again.

Love this place. good music and dancing, casual atmosphere, strong drinks. There's bar seating in the front and booths and lounge tables around the dance floor in the back. Friday's are the best here

I'd past this place so many times just thinking it was some hole in the wall, especially with a name like EZ-Inn. When a friend of mine mentioned that he was stopping by and to come hang I was like oh crap, I'm probably going to be kidnapped. I got inside and was totally shocked!The place is lovely and very intimate. It has a modern pub feel to it with awesome music being played. Dogs are also allowed which is great as well. I went with the grapefruit gin and tonic - 7 bucks. Yummy. The beer selection is plentiful as is the whiskey. Plenty of seating space! Plenty of parking! Awesome spot!

Its like walking into a time machine in the best way. Light fixtures made by old school brewery's. A great bar design. This place has booths, bar stools, other comfortable seats. Good craft beer selection and they're able to do a handful of classic cocktails as well. I came in on a Sunday and they had 10 oz of Old Style on draft for a $1. Bartender is funny, other patrons are cool. They have a few cocktails on draft and one of the ones I got was a Pina Colada.

I have to give 5 stars just because the night I went, there was an awesome themed party and everyone was very friendly. The bartenders were cool. I got in the DJ boot for a picture:) (but that's also because they were friends of my friend). I walked out drunk before heading to the shit fountain. Good times!:)

Later at night, the place gets cramped, loud and energetic--so I visited it before 7 pm on a Saturday night and loved it. The EZ Inn feels old but is beautifully updated and maintained. It looks just a bit like a dive bar, with its old-school "cold beer" coolers, PBR sconce lights, and $6 "threezie" (Old Style, shot of whiskey and bag of Jay's potato chips), but it's extraordinarily clean, very comfortable, and has some terrific beers and drinks. My wife loved her gimlets, and I thought the Old Fashioned was great. The place has a terrific jukebox.The EZ Inn is almost as welcoming as its famous free "hugs and hi-fives." Come for its comfortable vibe, $3 Hamm's or $10 cocktails and you'll be a fan, too.
