Arthur’s is a good burger joint on the outside of Hyde Park Square. Good (but limited) draft and bottle selection, and great burgers. Early week burger specials too! Worth a trip (or four).

Arthur’s is a nice alternative to the more pretentious places in Hyde Park. Around the corner from Hyde Park Square, it has two sides, one mostly tables and one with a bar and booths and more tables. It gets very crowded, especially on weekend nights. The staff is good. There aren’t many taps but there are generally solid choices between those and the bottles. Last time they had Leinenkugel, Great Lakes, and Rogue on tap in addition to Guinness and macros, and last time I saw Goose Island, Barrelhouse, and Moerlein, so they do all right with them. I hear the food is great but haven’t had it yet.

Arthur’s is a great neighborhood bar in Hyde Park. Parking can be difficult use the pay lot behind the restaurant (off Edwards). Draught beer selection is typical and uninteresting, bottled selection a bit better (I usually order Dogfish 60m IPA). The service is generally prompt and courteous, the food is great (Sun-Tues Burger Madness), and the back patio is quaint and cozy. Overall, the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
