Fodor's Expert Review Martyrs'
Far North and Far Northwest Sides
Live Music
Martyrs' brings mostly local rock bands (and the occasional major-label act) to North Center, a small neighborhood sandwiched between Lincoln Square and Roscoe Village. Music fans can see the stage from just about any corner of the bar, while the more rhythmically inclined gyrate in the large standing-room area. A mural opposite the stage memorializes late rock greats.
