I feel funny writing a review for this place since it’s no longer called the Captain Morgan. The name has changed and apparently I’m pretty challenged since I don’t know how to alert/change/revise the name. Anyway, this place is better than standing around trying to gulp your food down on a mad house night. Sure, you can walk from vendor to vendor, looking for what you want to eat, and walk to more vendors looking for the right drink. Instead, I chose to come in here, find a seat on the outdoor patio and place an order. So I ate sitting down. Ordered a salad, a few mini burgers and a drink or two. They got my order wrong. And charged me for it. They did remove the charge, and they did get the drink order correct, and they also got the food out quickly. I still think I made the right choice in eating here. And really, they were very quick and apologetic about the error. The customer service was there, the burgers were maybe average and the salad was a mess. The new name is Draft Kings Sport Zone.

Nice place attached to Wrigley, but way overpriced. The best thing about the bar is convenience to the stadium. Food is good, but nothing memorable. Service is pretty slow.

Went to the game on August 13th, I had a captain and diet and my husband had a green line. The bill was $ 34.00. This place has gotten out of control. How can two drinks cost that much? Last year I paid $ 12.00 for a drink and I thought that was high. I believe that the bartender ripped me off. I was so shocked at the cost and will not return. They do not post prices anywhere so be careful if you choose to go. I was going to confront them on the way out of the park but the place was so crazy I could not get any ones attention. I will stick with drinking before I come into the park from now on!!! So Disappointed!!!

DO not go here. A beer is $ 9.00 and a Captain and Coke is $ 12.00. It will piss you off. Just go to a regular Wrigley Bar down the street.

Great place to trap you on your way out of the Cubs game(this is a good thing). You can get in here from the stadium or come in from the outside world. It’s a busy place, but service remains decent. They definitely know how to get you– one shot for $ 10? YIKES. It’s a tourist at-TRAP-tion, but oh so convenient. I’ve only had drinks here, not food. It’s a fun time with all the sloshed up people, but you will leave broke.

Place is awesome! The bar servers are helpful and smile, yea they sorta want a tip but they have a great attitude about serving you and even chatting it up and asking if your local or out of town. Love the way you show your ticket in and out and the place is fun all around. Drank so much here I think my picture should be hanged up on the wall for at least a weekend.

Expensive? You bet. But if you want something other than a standard beer at the ball game(vodka lemonade anyone?) then Captain Morgan’s is going to be your place. We went on a night of the Blake Shelton concert. Holy pirates! This place was PACKED! And since there was no room to sit, we waited in line at the bar and got our drinks several times. Note that since this is accessed from inside the ball park– you will need a ticket to get in unlike the free standing bars in Wrigleyville. I do have to give a shout out to the bartenders for they were poised and handled the huge fray unerringly which actually impresssed me. We didn’t eat but the food around us looked okay. I would like to come back and sit outside on a night when it is less packed in the place(given the way the Cubs are playing, I guess that could be soon!) Also– if you want a decent bathroom at Wrigley– this one has an attendant and is kept very clean given the amount of people who are moving through the place. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The bouncers were helpful and the drinks were well poured. And I really like the beer cups that were invented by some 22 year old person here in Chicago that purportedly maximize keg useage and are easier to fill as they fill from the bottom. Worth ordering a beer just to see the technology although I have since seen it at other locations as well. Change up from your standard beer at Wrigley. Captain Morgan’s is a solid alternative to getting a decent drink while you watch the ball game!

If you want pricey drinks to enjoy in a loud and crowded place right next to the game this is your place! There isn’t much of a draw aside from that. Service was fine when I went.

So… it is what it is. If you want to have an overpriced beer near Wrigley field, go for it. You aren’t choosing Captain Morgan’s for the ambiance. And for the love of God, do not choose it for the FOOD. I was there last night before a concert and made the mistake of ordering a burger. Wow. Hands down, worst«meal» I have had in a long time. My 9-year old can make a better burger. This patty clearly came straight out of a deep freezer, was heated, and placed on the bun. Barely edible. I would rather have a McDonald’s burger. Charging $ 10 bucks for that sad excuse for food is highway robbery. On a positive note, I can report that the staff was extremely friendly. Every bartender and server I passed by had a smile and a friendly hello. So ‘A” for effort from the servers, a solid F for the food and prices.

Do not patronize this business. Our party was treated with grievous disrespect and improper humiliation. Captain Morgans is built on a racist and discriminative culture stemming from the leadership of manager: Gus anagnostopoulos. After settling a $ 500 + bill we were suddenly thrown out at the managers direction because a patron in our part had his feet up on one of the metal mesh outdoor chairs. No warning. No further explanation. Just a conglomerate of underpaid muscle enforcing this pathetic technique to humiliate and intimidate customers. If you have any inclination to support equal rights and the dignity of paying customers, DONOTPATRONIZETHISESTABLISHMENT. It is a scourge on our modern society, and leadership like this should be stopped thru market forces at all costs. We are disgusted by the representative attitude of Chicagoans and the city in general.

A lot of fun before, during or after a cubs game. Get there early as it can be hard to grab a seat. Watch them get you a draft, some of the bars shoot the beer up from the bottom of the cup. Nice place to go in during the game if you are cold and want to warm up a bit. You can bring drinks from the bar inside the park. Drinks are pricey. Food is not bad.

2.5 Maybe? I take this place for what it is… a bar/patio right outside the doors to Wrigley Field. On nice days, it’s fun to grab a drink out here before you walk into a game. Yeah it’s extremely overpriced… but it’s attached to Wrigley Field, what do you expect? Management would be fools to sell cheap booze at a goldmine tourist trap like this. Ripping off suburbanites and away crowds is exactly how I would manage this place too. Service is usually good, especially given what they have to deal with on a game day. Our server Alex kept the shots coming quickly… we got here around the 7th inning after a long couple hours of drinking, so we foolishly kept requesting them. I wish this place was named something cooler than Captain Morgan Club(Admiral Nelson 4 Life!!)…I’m all for Wrigley putting up some tasteful advertising around the stadium to generate revenue, but its Wrigley Field, call this bar something sweet like Billy Goat Blackout or something.

HANDSDOWNTHEWORSTEXPERIENCEIVEEVERHADINCHICAGOLASTNIGHT !!! Ive lived in Chicago for the last 7 years, 5 of them being in Wrigley, just to explain my background. So My business partner and I decided to take out 3 of our younger reps to the CUBS game last night. Got to Captain Club around 7pm, ordered food and drinks for everybody. All of the servers were very cute, nice and gave us good service for the most part. With every drink being at least $ 8, we dropped around $ 200 with beer and food for 5 people tipped our servers 20% and went into the game. Watched the game in our seats until about the 6th inning(830 or so) and we decided to head back into the Captain Club to watch the rest of the game and have another round of beers, some finger foods and shots of Crown Royal Maple for everybody(about another $ 200). After about 30 min — We’re having a good time at our table(nobody was out of control or being loud), and then all of sudden 4 security guards, a police officer and the manager of the bar surrounded our table asking us to leave the bar– and the manager said«you’ve had your fun, now its time to get the f*** out!!! «I asked the manager what we did, and he couldn’t give us a reason, just said«its time to leave«behind his muscle of cops and security guards. I’m married with a young son, and obviously not going to start a fight or get arrested for no reason, so we honored their requested and walked to the exit. I don’t know if they thought we were somebody else, or the manager was just having a bad day, but at this point I was a little pissed now and wanted an explanation as to why we were getting kicked out. Even the security guards were on our side saying they don’t understand why were getting kicked out they were just doing their job. They agreed we weren’t loud, causing a problem or being disrespectful(after living in Wrigley for 5 years, I’ve seen plenty of people that deserved to kicked out of a bar). When Joe(asst Manager) came out to see us I explained to him — «We spent around $ 400 tipped well, why are we getting kicked out»? His reply, «How about I give you $ 300 back so you get the f** out of here». «oh, wait I change my mind — get the f** outta here» and the manager walked away. We’ve all had crappy days, but this guy must have just found out his wife was cheating on him or something to that nature because his actions to Captain Morgan Customers was unacceptable. With all of the competition around Wrigley this was no way to treat customers that are spending money, especially out for business. We know the Cubs suck right now and nobody is going the games anymore, so this is the time when customer service is impeccable. The managers actions last night reflects poorly on all the of Wrigley area bars, and on the entire CUBS organization. I personally will NEVER step foot into the Captain Morgan again, and this experience has made me question my loyalty the Cubs as a livelong fan.

Better than I expected – so close to Wrigley and an easy place to grab a drink before a game. It was definitely not as crowded as I thought it would be. A bit more expensive than I am used to, but can’t expect much else.

I met up with some friends here prior to a game. Let me start out by saying the Captain Morgan is not my friend, I do not drink the stuff. The place was somewhat busy and they definitely did not have enough servers. When a server did stop by our table we had to hurry up with our ordered. That may explain why I ended up drinking a drink that I did not order. Bleh. The three of us shared some nachos that were of the like of a grade school basketball game. Not so tasty. You can take home your souvenir cups that come with the drinks. Drinks are very pricey. The DJ managed to make sucky songs sound even more sucky. How? Why? Where did Ronnie Woo Woo come from? He just magically appeared! A big plus, you can enter directly into the ballpark from this place. That was nice. Bathrooms are also right before you walk into the ballpark. Bike parking on street, but do not ride your bike to a Cubs game unless you want it peed on, puked on, or stolen. Cheers.

Short answer: Drinks are pricey, but pretty good. Food, not so much. Waitstaff was fantastic when I was here. DJ was pretty horrible. You can get into the park through the bar, which is a nice bonus. Decent place to meet up with people before a game, but about on par with most other Wrigleyville pubs(aka crappy cash grabs), just outside, so the DB stick doesn’t linger.

No me gusta. I love wrigley but don’t like this place. Why did they have to add this to wrigley??? Why? Well perhaps I’m mad at the simple fact that this place was likely created to continue paying Soriano and Zambrano’s horrible contracts. Anyway… Go to a real wrigley bar… What are you doing hanging out at the park? What’s wrong with you? You are in wrigleyville! Hello!

Overpriced, LOUDLOUD Music, DB galore! Meh service. I just don’t get the attraction of this place and with the gazillion bars around Wrigley why on earth would you ruin Wrigley Field by putting a bar attached to it!!! and don’t even get me started on Captain Morgan… just tacky and cheezy. It’s not Disney World folks, enough with the characters! If this is under New Management(where I read from another review) then I would hate to have seen what it was like before. Awful place.

Meh. The Captain Morgan Club is ok. The drinks are a bit expensive, but for a Wrigley adjacent bar it’s not too bad when there isn’t a game going on. The best part of this bar are the tappers. They have some type of electronic tap contraption that fills glasses from the bottom of the cup and it’s pretty cool to watch.
