I've lost count of how many times I've been here. It's a tiny oasis nestled amidst the hustle and bustle of ORD. If my layover is long enough, I always make a detour to Rush Street and skip the airline lounges. The bartenders at Rush Street are real pros and know how to pour a drink—not like those corporate spots. The chairs fill up quickly, but if you hang around, one usually opens up. Standing tables are also available. And definitely try a Chicago Dog—their hot dogs are amazing!
As a Chicago native who now lives on the east coast, I have a tradition: every time I am in O'Hare Terminal 3, I have a Chicago-style hot dog at Rush Street Bar. Whether my flight has been delayed for 4 hours or I have a 15 minute layover, I always go here. They make the hot dogs quickly and it is a delicious and 100% authentic Chicago-stye dog. Recently they even added flat-top tables (no chairs) so you can stand and eat.
It is a nice little corner of the O'Hare International Airport. Service is good, quick, and with a smile. Beer on tap plus spirits. Located by H14 ... well the best thing about this place is those Chicago dogs...... I enjoyed a fully loaded dog and it hit the spot with no complaints from me... 100% enjoyed I will repeat
Awesome affordable bar with great hot dogs and super nice bartenders!!
A chain of high end restaurants and bars enjoying the cool breeze and hustle bustle on the street. Would recommend Chang, Hampton, Gelato, Happeas restaurants for really good food and ambience.
Airport bar! Good hotdog!
Quick and convenient airport bar. It wasn't immediately obvious that they had food but once I figured out they had Chicago-style hotdogs I ordered a couple! Tasty, quick, and convenient!
Had a great time at karaoke Wednesday! It was crowded, but the bartenders kept it moving!
