i LOVE this neighborhood bar. The owner, Brian, is extremely friendly and knows exactly how to run a business. the environment is really welcoming and the regulars are entertaining to be around. Since the Packer Inn shut down, the "riff raff" made their way out the door so there's no more shady clientele, which makes the drinking experience way better (and safer). The beer on tap is awesome, lots of micros and imports.... and The food is DELICIOUS! Burgers, Reubens, salmon burgers, chicken sandwiches, gyros, steak sandwiches... NOTHING is deep fried. Instead they offer generous portions of potato salad, cole slaw and pasta salad . All for a reasonable price, especially for tavern prices. Next time I'm back home I will be stopping in for my Fat Tire pint and a Chief's Chicken sammie!!!!

Great beer selection and the TLT is awesome. I agree with a previous reviewer -- the place is a little towny, but not the least bit unwelcoming. I will be stopping back in the future.

Stopped in on a Friday night and we were treated to live music at a shocking 6:30 p.m. startup time! I tried the smoked trout sandwich, which also has bacon. So if you want an overdose of smoked goodness, this is a safe bet. The menu is extremely small, but well done. During busy times some patience will be needed, but it is worth it. Good beers on tap, and a very clean place. It reminds me of when I was growing up and people would turn their basements into bars and host their friends. We will be back, hopefully for the Sunday blues jam.

Nearly the best tap list in town. Very towny but not unwelcoming. Great for watching sports. Check out a meat raffle, it won't disappoint.

Love the low-key atmosphere, love the friendly clientele, love the beers, and the bartender's the nicest ever. I'm always happy there.

I go here after my golf league every week and get consistently great service. Regulars are friendly and the place is comfortable, although a little small when the karaoke crowd gets in. Limited menu, but what's on it is great. Try the TLT (trout, lettuce, tomato) w/ Bacon. You'll love it and if you really like trout, tell them to leave the skin on. It takes it to another level.

What was once The Packer Inn, is now Chief's. The sign is in a weird font that makes it look like "Chick's". Or something. We stopped in for a burger there, since they've re-opened their grill. It was a Sunday evening around 630PM and the place was dead except for 3 people: the bartender, a guy preparing stack of chips for some kind of poker night, and random maybe-drug-dealer dude. The grill lights were off, leaving us wondering if we could get anything off the food menu. When we asked the bartender, he reluctantly said it was open and pointed to the menu on the wall. It was obvious he didn't want to cook. When we ordered (two burgers), one of us wanted it rare and one of us wanted it medium-rare. His response: "You're asking too much of me." Uh, noted. Among the sides offered are pasta and potato salad. I got one of these, my friend the other. The side portions (which looked like Sysco pre-made stuff) are TINY. Like, a 3 ounce plastic cup tiny. The burgers- however reluctantly made- were actually pretty good. At 6 bucks, I'd hoped for quite a bit a bit more side, though. They have Lake Louie Premium on tap, as well as Hoplalicious, Spotted Cow, and Summer Shandy. The bartender did tap us nice, full pints with a quarter-inch head and in chilled glasses. Liked that a lot. He also discounted some shots of Patron, maybe because we offered to buy him one (which he politely refused as it was early). On to the "atmos"... the old bar top has been replaced with what looks like an institutional bathroom counter: particle board with a thick, shiny veneer of fake granite flecks. The place smells like off-gassing from the particle board, and the bar surface is sticky, kind of bumpy, and gross to the touch. The bartender had his IPod on the PA. It was at a low level and almost drowned out by two TVs blaring golf and baseball, respectively. While I'd prefer the music over the TVs... one or the other would've been nice. Not both. I'd stop in for a beer and maaaaybe a burger... but the whole experience was too sketchy for me to make a habit of it.

I love Chiefs tavern its kinda like home. You can walk in have a beer have a burger, and chill. The bartenders are laid back and down to earth! The food is pretty awesome considering this chill atmosphere they serve quite a selection of upscale bar food. Ex: reuben sandwhiches, salmon burgers, TLT ( tomato Lettuce Bacon and smoked trout sandwich, chiefs chicken sandwich, burgers, steak sandwich, Gyros. they serve fresh non fried food which is a nice change for a bar.
