Naperville

Naperville, an affluent Chicago suburb built around its popular Riverwalk, has a bar scene led by sports bars and classic bars - BarFinder lists 64 venues here, with a solid brewery and gastropub presence rounding things out. Local names like Up North Ale House and World of Beer cover the craft-beer crowd, while Judd Kendall VFW and Spartan Ale House keep a more old-school tavern feel alive. It's a scene built as much around Riverwalk patio nights as a traditional bar crawl.
