Oofah! This place will be shuttered soon unless the one of the patrons removes the owner permanently. Not only is the food bad, the owner is so mean that I cannot ever see ths p...

Great Outdoors Come to Lincoln Park 5/19/2006

I like the selection of gear here, and the sale-priced gear/clothing is worth looking through. I've found a lot of high-end stuff significantly price-reduced (from 30 to 60%). Friendly and informed staff who are very willing to answer questions. This service makes Uncle Dan's that much more attractive when you're looking for the right backpack or quick-drying towel. Parking is horrible on this stretch of Lincoln, though. The Fullerton Red/Brown/Purple Line is only a 10-min. or less walk away. more

Wish I lived in this store 3/7/2006

I love Uncle Dan's. I always seem to find something, even if I'm not looking for anything. The sales staff are amazing; if they don't have an answer, they know the person in the store who does. They offer a good selection of hiking packs, day packs, shoes, apparel, camping gear and much more. Prices are what they are at similar places, but the sale prices can be very good. more

I was pretty satesfied. 2/26/2006

I was pretty satesfied with my experience at Uncle Dan's. I mean- they have EVERYTHING, and that's nothing to scoff at, is it? Anything and everything you need is here for camping, hiking, fishing, trail. The prices (as someone mentioned) are just okay, but not horrible- it's not a re-sale shop or a surplus store, and it's better than Eddie Bauer. About REI- type prices, only I don't think Uncle Dan's is a chain. It's in Lincoln Park and in a pretty neat area, I may add. I'd recommend it for your camping needs, and those hard to find items! more

Uncle Dan's 10/1/2005

Uncle Dan's has a lot of outdoor supplies, like camping and fishing gear. Whether you need a new pair of Tevas or a camping stove, this place probably has it. I think their prices are just ok, but their staff is generally pretty friendly. Parking is a real pain on Lincoln Avenue almost any time of day, so that's a strike against it, but that's just life in the city. more
