Charlie Beinlich's

Other places try to recreate the 1950 corner bar vibe, but they ain't nothing like the real deal. Someone asked for a slice of tomato on their sandwich and the bartender simply said, "We don't serve tomatoes." Don't mess with a classic. This time capsule is a local treasure.

It's not often I leave a low review; the food is overpriced. The menu is on the wall with no prices either. They accept cash or personal checks. I sat for recently with my family I posted a pic of the food and my bill you decide! I left 20% on top as well

Best burger in Chicagoland! Ordered it just like they serve it at my much-heralded neighborhood spot, Au Cheval, with American cheese and pickles. It's no competition, Beinlich's is much better. It tastes fresher, and it's not weighed down in pork fat. Now if they could just open a location on Randolph Street.
