Lip and Fiona won’t be there so don’t ask, since most of the shots take place on a sound stage anyway, but the experience of seeing the house is something that a fan couldn’t possibly deny is worth the effort to make a trip to the south side. It definitely seems as though it would make a great picture for any fan that wants to say ‘I’ve been to the Gallagher house’. While some folks might not have a clue what in the hell you’re talking about, a real fan of the show would still see it as a prize, much as any Goonies fan would see getting their picture taken next to the house in the same light. Looking to reunite with the beloved cast one last time following the series finale this Sunday, April 11?

‘Shameless’: The Gallagher’s house is a real home in Southside Chicago

Since its premiere in 2011, Shameless has added some incredible newer characters to the Gallagher clan. Honorary Gallagher, Mickey Milkovich (Noel Fisher) was a huge fan favorite. While he was in-and-out of the series throughout its entire run, during the last two seasons he married middle-child Ian Gallagher (Cameron Monaghan), and the two began to settle down.

The website works best on a touch screen, as the website features a full 360 degrees look at the house. Hidden throughout the house are videos and images, and character profiles. It also has a “take a photo” QR code and link, guiding fans to an Instagram filter that allows them to take a selfie with a green-screen-like image of the Gallagher House.

The exterior and interior filming of the bar is from the back lot of Warner Bros Burbank Studios. The house provided its exterior for filming and has become a popular and well-known location since then. The character is briefly mentioned in the Season 10 premiere, but it has yet to be confirmed if she’ll return as a guest star. Though fans, and even Emmy’s former co-stars are holding out hope we’ll see Fiona walk through the Gallagher house again. Chicago and Los Angeles filming locations from the Showtime series Shameless (US).

After the show’s popularity, a real bar similar to the Alibi in Chicago became famous and supposedly opened later. The design of the bar is very similar to that of typical Chicago-style bars, which could easily have been the spot for the Alibi Room Bar. Frank’s second home and another very frequent location of the show is the Alibi Room Bar, a famous bar in the show. The house is the center point of the series, where many antics from Frank, heart-to-heart conversations, and mind-boggling fights occur. The show stars Emmy Rossum, William H. Macy, Jeremy Allen White, and Cameron Monaghan.

It’s kind of amusing watching fans that get so into a story that they want to go to certain spots and see specific areas where a character did this, where a situation happened, or even just visit a city where a movie or TV show was shot to say they’ve been there. Fans are sometimes a weird bunch as a lot of us should know by now since we tend to value certain things in the entertainment industry in a way that’s almost manic at times and downright disturbing at others. When pulling back just enough to take a realistic look at the movies and TV shows that we idolize so much it’s enough to make us wonder why since some of the characters we enjoy are some of the worst people to ever be created, like Frank Gallagher. While you can’t say that the family as a whole are a band of angels, Frank is by far the worst and has been on a path of destruction for a while now. As Gabrielle Bernardini of Distractify puts it, the owner is actually pretty cool with the whole idea of people coming around and taking pictures, though it shouldn’t need to be said that people need to respect the owner’s privacy and not take her kindness for granted.

Chicago is a beautiful city that you can see in many different ways, but a riverboat ride is one of the best. You probably won’t spend all of your time in Chicago checking out the Shameless house and other notable landmarks, but there’s plenty to do to fill your time in the Windy City. Shameless afficionados will be also able to discover hidden “easter eggs” and unlock exclusive, never-before-seen content from the series.

Fiona, Lip, Ian, Debbie, Carl, Liam, and, of course, Frank have led viewers down the strangest and most exciting paths your mind could never construe over the past 11 seasons, building an intense fan base. The homeowners invite Shameless fans to take pictures in front of the gate and even on the Southside Chicago home porch at 2119 South Homan Ave., Chicago. The Shameless house even has a foursquare location to tag photos on social media.

It then maintained average ratings of just below a million viewers throughout the remainder of its episodes. Despite Frank’s (William H. Macy) purposeful overdose, once they determine he’ll probably wake up, they turn to their own problems. It's open all fans of the hit comedy series on Sunday, April 11 at 10 p.m.

The production crew did film a lot in Chicago to keep authenticity intact, but the rest is from Los Angeles. Shameless gathered a very strong fan base in its ten years of airing by telling authentic stories in a comedic way. The show also features a lot of different locations in the stretch. Fiona/Frank's room is assume in the middle but somehow in the back above the kitchen. Idk where ian/lips room is lined up yet with the billion rewatches.

Then the show cuts to a recap montage of plot points relevant to the current episode, followed by the opening title sequence. Later that evening when they pull up to the Alibi, Ian brings up the date again, seeing if it rings a bell with Mickey. He finally says it’s their one-year wedding anniversary and Mickey, still playing dumb, tells Ian to go inside, where he’s surprised by a big anniversary party with the entire family where, it turns out, they’re all expecting Frank to show up. Lip’s still upset about the real estate deal he let slip through his hands. His mood isn’t helped by the fact that Debbie is thrilled the house won’t be sold. He sits on the front stoop where Tami (Kate Miner) joins him and promises that no matter what he wants to do, she’ll support him.
