Bar #21: Leland Tap

4662 N. Western Ave.

10:15pm, Wednesday, July 27

Price of Old Style: None - $3.00 PBR pints

The Leland Tap sits in the shadow of the Western stop on the Brown Line…attached to a liquor store at Leland & Western. It seems like a perfect spot for a drink after work, but alas, no Old Style. We get our PBR’s and notice the sign along the entire back wall that reads:

LELAND HOUSE OF LIQUOR

WE RESPOND TO YOUR SPIRITUAL NEEDS

You have to love a bar with humor. There was a good crowd, and it even had a little DJ booth in the corner, probably for the weekends. With any business, it’s all about location, location, location, and the Leland Tap / House of Liquor has that covered.

  1. The sign u believe you are referring to reads "We cater to your spiritual needs", I was talking to one of the owners, his dad painted that sign in the 70's, I asked about the black and white pictures on the walls, and I found out that the pictures ate all of the owners in the "good ole days", pretty cool family history bar. Not bad that they have live music either, I had a good time
