Gretel sits on Armitage Avenue in Logan Square, part of a small cluster of restaurants alongside Little Bad Wolf and The Good Wolf. The kitchen has built a following around its burger, and the bar carries a whiskey selection substantial enough to pull its own crowd.
It plays out as a classic gastropub, with food and drink treated as equal draws — regulars come back as much for the pour as the plate.
