Cheli's Chili bar is a good little joint that has good drinks and food and has a bunch of different spices for its dishes. Old Shillelagh is another place close to the stadium that has great deals on game day if you don't like tailgating.

Hockeytown Cafe is a great spot, especially for Hockey games. There is also Old Shillelagh and Elwood Bar and Grill among others that have lots of different beers and food to choose from before games and you get many fans hanging out here before and after games.
