My Take
Our Take

Bungalow by Middle Brow treats pizza as the frame for something more ambitious: a wine program built with the same seriousness most places reserve for the food. The pairing works because neither side backs down. The pies hold their own against bottles chosen with real intent, and the room in Logan Square feels like a neighborhood spot that happens to take both halves of the meal equally seriously.

That balance is rare enough to notice nationally. The James Beard Foundation named the wine program a semifinalist for Outstanding Wine Program in 2024, and The New York Times put the restaurant on its Restaurant List the same year. Neither honor is about spectacle. Both point to a place doing something specific and doing it well, night after night.

Bungalow earns its place by refusing to pick a lane. Come for the pizza, stay for the wine list, and don't be surprised when both turn out to be the reason.

The Spot
Bungalow operates as the pizza-and-drinks arm of Middle Brow's Logan Square footprint, described on its own site simply as "a beer & wine & pizza den." The pizza draws on Middle Brow's sourdough bakery program, paired with a natural wine and beer list poured from the same operation's winery and brewery.

The pizza has developed a strong local following, with regulars pointing to it as one of the neighborhood's dependable spots. The wine program earned a James Beard Foundation semifinalist nod for Outstanding Wine Program in 2024, and the restaurant was included on The New York Times' Restaurant List the same year.
