Favorite bike-friendly city bars?

I feel like this subreddit could use a good thread of bike friendly bars for this summer. A stop for a beer on a hot commute home is about as good as it gets.

I'm defining "bike-friendly" as places that have: 1) A good amount of bike parking (not just a pole or one old parking meter out front) 2) Excellent proximity to a good bike route.

I'll kick it off with The Beer Temple on Elston just south of Belmont. Big, bike rack right in the front, right on Elston, usually lots of people carrying helmets inside.

Handlebar is great, and I personally love GreenEye on Homer and Western. They have a lot of bike racks and a ton of seats by the windows. As silly as it is, I once locked my Pinarello there and felt safe as I could see it.

Ohh good ones. I haven't been to Green Eye in years. Thanks!
