With 20 television monitors (and a few 60″ plasmas) , several pool tables and several dart boards, NORTH END is the best gay sports bar around Boystown.

Overlooked by many people, it draws a diverse neighborhood crowd of friendly people. Super-friendly staff (you may even be served by a porn star…) and reasonable prices on drinks and beer.

Even if you are not really into sports, North End is a great place to have a drink and hang out with friends – or make some new friends. However,  if there’s a Cubs, Bulls, Bears or White Sox game happening, everyone here’s watching. But post-work or most times when there is no big game happening, the crowd is laid back and there to have a good time.

Located on the northernmost edge of Boystown
(3733 N. Halsted St., Tel: 773- 477-7999 ) – near the GayHOP (the notoriously gay IHOP), the guys at North End have other things on their minds besides drama—like sports, men and beer.  Bartenders serve up brews like Bass, Guinness and Miller Lite, big selection of whiskey and liquor, they will make a martini or margarita for you (and not make a face) and they even have white wine!

Throw on your jock strap and stop in and see what you have been missing!
