Amazing late night bar. This tip comes from a lifelong Chicagoan. Do it. Sweaty. Dance. Party. Best staff ever. What more does a queen need??
Come on Monday nights to see our girl Mz. Ruff N Stuff and the rest of us fabulous girls and guys perform. $1.00 drinks all night and dancing till 4am after the show. No cover charge before 11pm.
Hey check out the manhole event when they host them. The bar doesn't actually reverrt back to it's bachanal manhole days, but they're crazy fun any way!
Amazing club and atmosphere. Can't have a bad night at hydrate. And very lovely staff!
Redeye ChicagoAugust 3, 2014Step through the mist spraying from the awnings, and dance your butt off at one of the hardest partying clubs on the strip. Read more
HammieHamHam™June 12, 2015Chic bar area; the dance floor tends to be packed with good music and captivating lighting.
Cree ChapmanSeptember 25, 2015I really enjoyed myself. Bartenders were nice & the music was good too.
where else can a straight woman dance with half naked hot men and not have them have any expectation at the end of the night!? love this place!
Jimmy DiazMarch 13, 2014It's not $1 drinks on Monday. It's $2. But it's still worth it and the place is amazing!
GarçonJuly 4, 2012Tuesday's are $1 drink nights...reasonable if you get tequila...just a fun place to relax and stay cool, until everyone shows up!
Awesome late night spot, def check it out on Sundays!
Jillian BurnickasNovember 15, 2015I expected a little more from the drag show on Saturdays but it was a good time nonetheless.
Pat LeeAugust 14, 2010Unfortunately one of the few after-hours clubs in Boystown. Great if you don't mind paying cover for repetitive, uninteresting, monotonous and dry dance music in a vacuous hole-like setting.
Hydrate heats up in the spring/summer! Come check out some of the best dj's from all over the world and dance til the sun comes up.
Favorite after hours bar/nightclub... Love DJ PhilDaBeatz!
Cassandra DixonJuly 21, 2015Hey Hydrate, you should join Freebie! It’s pretty rad and the benefits are great for both you and me. Check it out!

TammyJuly 15, 2010went with a group of friends during pride weekend, and this shit was crazy (in a good way). music is good, strong drinks, and hot men... for the guys & the straight ladies :P
Make sure to check out the AMAZING dance floor. They have the best DJ's spinning and sexy bartenders.
Angel SickelsNovember 24, 2012Go see "Santa's Dead" & "Dirty Carol's Christmas" NOW through Dec. 22nd. You'll laugh till ya gotta tinkle ya'll! = )- Come to the Manhole event tonight!! It's already hot and the boys are sexy as hell! Come down now!!!
Jason JacobsAugust 11, 2010Market Day's just be aware the dripping wet ceiling is from all the hot shirtless bodies!
Alex GrunbergMay 27, 2015Interesting to me. Plenty of air to breathe. Then there are a lot of drug deals going on so. No, not safe.
I've seen this place with the lights on at 4pm...you dont want to be here at 1am
Kyle OldfieldOctober 30, 2011Worst layout of any club I've been to! Who's ever idea it was to put a 3 feet wide hallway as the only passageway to and from the dance floor is an idiot!
