Suggestions for Cocktail Bar near Chicago

Kara H. • November 23, 2015Great atmosphere and interesting choice of gin based cocktails. It's crowded and tables are on a first come basis so if you don't mind standing around and scouting tables all night, check this out.

Eric M. • October 10, 2011Pick one, they're all delicious. The Chartreuse cocktail is delicious but the presentation for the Oolong is jaw droopingly cool.

Cristian L. • July 11, 2016The drinks were delicious and the bartender was super attentive. Ask for recommendations or tailored cocktails, he'll hit the spot.

Emily B. • August 25, 2017I love this place. The cocktails are top notch, the bar is absolutely beautiful and they play good jams. Good service and knowledgeable bartenders.

Rachel L. • July 14, 2019Great old school cocktail list

Jenny D. • May 14, 2019Simple but spectacular wine list, excellent cocktails, and a PERFECT vibe. Stop in for a moody vibe and a perfectly curated jazz playlist.

David C. • November 27, 2016The cocktails are tasty and dangerously sweet, with some clean and crisp options as well. The cold brew with horchata is a lifesaver if you're the designated driver.

ブルーノ • November 5, 2016Great cocktails and a funny atmosphere in this bar @ the Acme hotel. Also, get the tacos at the bar cause they're so good!

Autumn C. • September 30, 2019Beautiful space. Amazing hand-crafted cocktails and service. Small bites - oysters, nigiri, katsu, baos were all delicious

Nate R. • September 10, 2013The Raincoat is one of the best whiskey cocktails in the WORLD.

Bob D. • June 27, 2018Great cocktail with Campari and pineapple.

Sandy H. • September 13, 2014Seriously great bar...so nondescript from the street that you'd almost miss it. Built-in table top checkers & great cocktails. The whiskey mule is tasty.

Patrick L. • April 13, 2022Cozy intimate indoor space with an open, modern outdoor space. Best of both worlds!

Elise M. • February 19, 2011Ask one of the mixologists to make you something 'on a whim'! Just tell em a spirit or what you usually drink & let them create something just for you!

Chicago Tribune • January 7, 2015As the name suggests, cocktails and drinks are the name of the game at this underground spot. Try out their Pimm's cup or the Pilsen Fish House Punch. Or anything on the menu really it's all great.

Abby S. • June 30, 2018Food and cocktails are both outstanding!

Gary G. • July 25, 2020Beautiful, eclectic, and great cocktails.
