Mickey Finns

By Bull Nav

So the other night, seeing as how there's not a whole helluva lot of places close to NAVSTA Great Lakes to eat, we headed over to Mickey Finns Brewery in Libertyville.

Great place. The Rye Stout was outstanding, the food great, and the atmosphere was a lot of fun.

We didn't stick around for the live band, but from the looks of the crowd, it was going to be a blast.

So, if you are ever in the North Chicago area or you happen to be spending some time at Great Lakes, head on over to Libertyville and Mickey Finns for some good beer.

If you are staying at Great Lakes head to the Silo in Lake Bluff for some good Chicago-style deep dish

Dude, hop the Metra - for a couple of bucks and 45 minutes you can be downtown. You can find all sorts of exciting things to do there and the trains run really late.

Where are you billeting (I mean, on or off base)?

For a great breakfast Wildberry at 120 in Libertyville and they have great lunches.

For good Italian Taste of Italy in Antioch.

Are you going to be there for long?
