“We were looking for a nice place to get a drink that wasn’t crazy during the St.Pattys river dying festival because everywhere was sooooooo busy. We ended up coming here because of a recommendation and it did not disappoint!!! The drinks were amazing and the bar tenders were such good company. This is definitely a place I would go to frequently if I lived near by. My only suggestion is let’s get some Karoke going in there 😃“

“everyone there is like family“

“The team is super attentive and the hotel design is modern and inviting“

“We had an excellent stay at Loews Hotel! The service was outstanding, the food was delicious, and everything was exceptionally clean. The staff was friendly and made us feel welcome throughout our stay. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable experience. We look forward to staying here again!“

“Professionalism. It's always a high energy, very sexy show.“

“Just had lunch with my neighbor Jorge and as usual was NOT disappointed! Chris was her usual friendly self. She’s always on the ball about pleasing people and sending them home happy and full. Rose was the waitress everyone dreams of. Patient and funny all in the same breath. If you haven’t been to LaVilla I highly recommend a visit. You will want to return again and again! I’d be there more often but I have no self control. 🤣“

“Lisa was working tonight all on her own and she was phenomenal. She was so attentive and so kind. Her energy was so welcoming and refreshing. We came for a friend's birthday and she made the experience amazing and memorable 🩷“

“A great metal bar in the city! Neighborhood bar vibes- cash only, small stage. Great spot for local bands to play! Great staff- owner Dave is very personable and there a LOT! Nothing bad to say about it!“

“We had the most magical evening at After. The food was beyond amazing and the service was top notch. We are still talking about our memorable dinner.“

“Small, cozy space with beautiful drinks. Very nice staff.“

“I met up with some coworkers at Sky Ride Tap for drinks right after our shift today. The vibe inside is a classic, no-nonsense Loop dive bar and it is the perfect spot to unwind. I just ordered a couple of cold domestic bottles and a shot of whiskey while watching the game on their TV. The bartender was super friendly and definitely did not skim on the pour. Just make sure you bring cash.“

“We had a blast last night and the band was amazing. They sang a variety of music from current to old school.“

“Great vibe! Sat outside.“

“I love this place - had the brisket sliders, which were some of the best I've had, and an actually excellent non-alcoholic cocktail. Service was great - atmosphere was perfect for after work drinks. Really hopping for a Tuesday - I can see why.“

“Rogers Park Social is an absolute standout neighborhood staple that perfectly captures a welcoming, vibrant, and sophisticated atmosphere. It is the ideal place to gather with friends for a craft cocktail or to enjoy a relaxing evening in a space that feels both polished and genuinely inviting. The quality of their drinks is consistently top-tier, and you can really taste the care and expertise behind everything they serve. I place an incredibly high premium on cleanliness and the overall maintenance of a venue, and I am consistently impressed by how tidy, well-organized, and immaculately kept their space is—it creates such a professional, stress-free environment that makes every visit a truly positive experience. The staff is consistently friendly, highly skilled, and does a wonderful job of ensuring that every guest feels right at home. If you are looking for a reliable, high-quality venue that prioritizes both atmosphere and professional standards, I cannot recommend Rogers Park Social highly enough!“

“My sister had a special event there and every was exquisite from the food to the atmosphere. Unfortunately, the bar tender was rude, very unprofessional, he made the experience with us very lack luster. If that is the person serving our drinks I wouldn't trust because before the end of the night he would serve us drinks or food. yet he still served everyone else.“

“This restaurant has so much beautiful tropical and Star Wars decor! So fun to look at!! Get taken away to tropical escape while enjoying some delicious well poured cocktails and the food is super fresh and authentic! Large portions! Friendly staff. Definitely must try!“

“Great service and even better food! 10 out of 10 all around! When you go ask for Josh!“

“Paris has a great vibe. I stayed in the Versailles tower which was so far from all the action. It was the renovated tower and wish my room was a bit more authentic to the paris theme. The check in line is also insane. The restaurants are fabulous! The views are great. In my room plugging in the hair dryer blew the fuse in the bathroom. Overall great experience and fun.“

“SEXY! ARTeverywhere............“

“I’ve only stopped by this place a handful of times, but it’s honestly a great spot for a late-night hangout 🌙🍻. The vibe is really chill and it’s perfect when you’re out late and still want somewhere to grab a drink and relax 😎✨.

One of the best things is their hours they stay open until 4 AM on the weekends and even until 5 AM on Saturdays, which is amazing if you’re not ready to call it a night just yet ⏰🔥. It’s definitely a reliable go-to when most other places are already closed. Overall, a solid late-night bar that I’d keep coming back to! 👍“

“food was delicious! Highly recommend the zucchini fries, but the Cesar salad and elote deviled eggs were also good. Service was alright. Our waitress was really nice, but she did not check on us very frequently as we were sitting outside. We were there for a birthday, but they do not give any freebies for birthdays, just some sparklers if you order dessert (which were cute I guess).

If you pay via QR code, there’s an extra fee compared to if you pay through your waiter. In a city where every restaurant seems to be charging 3 different fees just to eat out, I would’ve appreciated a heads up about this fee prior to paying.“

“Great atmosphere, Great food and drinks 🍸“

“Great outdoor spot, great drinks...fun!“

“If you go for the small plates and yet have an appetite, pick two. For dinner I had the Costillas and Arroz Chaufa mixed with chorizo, shrimp, peppers, egg and scallions. Hit the spot. Excellent food and fantastic service. The waitress even jotted down some local spot recommendations. Great time all around.“

“We have gone here twice now to see Driveways band. We had an amazing experience both times! Parking is available nearby in a parking garage if street parking is unavailable. Drink prices at the BL are little pricey for alcoholic beverages, but you do get 2 refills on sodas and they offer free water, which is great considering how warm it can get in there. We love the BL!“

“my place to be with good people“

“This is definitely a great place to be. There were a lot of people in the evening and they were having a lot of fun. The room itself was cozy and nice. The breakfast in the cafe was great. To be honest, I loved the place, it was full of energy.“

“Bro, who are y’all hiding? I need to know, for a friend. Is this like a refuge for wanted people? Reminds me of that one documentary of the war of independence, where they hid people in the attic from the British in 1933 or so. Also, what does the W stand for? Did they only allow in winners? Damn, that’s tuff. I lowk fw that idea tho, because why would you allow in losers, am I right? Anyways, W business, keep it up y’all. Love the work y’all doing and protecting people.“

“As a visitor to Chicago, this was such a warm and welcoming place to have a drink or a late night snack and great conversation. The ownership and staff are amazing and the safe, relaxed environment is worth its weight in gold. If you can go here, please do. And tip these awesome folks, they do it right“

“Intimate, welcoming and fun atmosphere. Karaoke night is a great time. 10/10“

“I never believed my life will change in such a manner. I saw a review on Facebook about Mrs Craig Vanessa trading skills and before then I have never risk money doing anything online with anybody because I think I was so wise and never want to be cheated but when I contacted Mrs. Craig Vanessa, she explained everything to me concerning trading and the profit I can make within a week I was convinced to give a trial and risked to invest $1,000 and I made a withdrawal profit of $9,000 within a week. I am so happy that I trusted her and she didn't fail me. You can reach her through WhatsApp via her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa“

“A small group of us came in on a weeknight for after dinner cocktails… The venue is interesting, somewhat dim and vibrant at the same time. Definitely has a cool, fun vibe. Cocktails are ok… I say that because we ordered something that wasn’t too off the wall which involved ginger simple syrup and they couldn’t make it – odd for a truly craft cocktail joint. So, they’re more mainstream with their cocktails. Service was just ok as well, not the best, but somewhat friendly.
Overall – it’s worth checking out, even if only for the venue.“

“Stopped in for drinks later in the evening and got the lychee martini plus the Chiang Mai Dragon. Both were solid and not the usual bar drinks. Space is small and dark with that China inspired decor and low lights, feels intimate. DJ was spinning good stuff without it being too loud to talk. Staff was friendly and the whole vibe worked for a chill night out in the neighborhood.“

“Queenies is amazing. I appreciate the staffs and managers kindness to me even though I have autism and their food is amazing and really good. Bartender Marvin and Alex is very nice. The restaurant is in good condition. Amazing steak. Must come back. 10/10.“

“Amazing food and amazing service! The Pork Belly is to die for!! Yummy! Everything was SO good! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I ordered them Muffuletta sandwich and it was delicious. Maybe even better than Central grocery the original in New Orleans. They gave me a chocolate cookie too and it was so good. I might try a different sandwich before I leave Chicago as I’m sure they’re all equally awesome.“

“My happy place 😌 My happy place 😌“

“Met a cool girl named Katie here. She kept saying slay. Hope she’s doing well. Nice place. Awesome pool table, so clean! Jukebox was lovely and esoteric. Maybe in the future think about getting some music like “Breakaway” by Kelly Clarkson or perhaps some Korn. Maybe even a entire selection of Nu Metal. Drinks so yum! I drank them all. Thanks!P.S.“

“Good ambient service not so good“

“The most unpretentious public house I've found in Chicago. Fantastic pool table and beer garden. Mel abides.“

“Went with our group of 8 and we loved it! The food was shockingly good, it exceeded our expectations!! The vibe was great! We loved the food ambience and time spent at the drawing room. We were there for a while hanging out and we weren't rushed at all, we were able to take our time and enjoy the company and restaurant. I would recommend this place!!“

“it's a cool little dive bar. the bartender was kinda annoying and pushy... some short chick. I wasn't very fond of her but other than that the bars pretty cool“

“My boyfriend and I stumbled upon this bar after going on a food tour of the area. I insisted we go in because of the fun lights, and am so glad we did!!! We had an incredible time, mainly because of our bartenders—Tabby and Jayden. They both made stellar cocktails, were super personable and completely made our experience. Tabby is a riot and Jayden was lovely. We had way more drinks than we normally would because we were having so much fun! Will 100% come back next time we’re in Chicago.“

“Visited when I was in Chicago for the first time this July. The tarot card drink specials were incredible, and how serendipitous—the drink I chose was on my signature card—the Queen of wands. Friendly people, amazing drinks, wonderful performers! Can’t wait to come back!“

“Stopped by The Office last weekend after dinner, and what an experience! 🥃✨ This intimate speakeasy is tucked away in the basement of The Aviary and only holds about 21 people, so it definitely has that exclusive, hidden gem feel.

Reservations are $50 per person, but that amount goes toward your bill. And honestly, the drink options go way beyond the menu. I tried a daiquiri, a green tea shot, and a coffee inspired cocktail. Everything was unique, and they have an impressive collection of rare and hard to find spirits.

The bartenders were extremely nice, knowledgeable, and informative, which made the experience even better. We also tried the cheesecake, which was a nice addition.

The music was mellow but still gave the room a vibe. The atmosphere is intimate, cozy, and definitely feels like a place you go for the experience, not just a drink.

Street parking is available. Definitely a fun spot to add to your Chicago night out! 🍸“
