I’m not usually a dive bar person, but this place is the exception. It has the relaxed, no-frills vibe you’d expect, but the cocktails are surprisingly great… way better than most dives.

What really sets it apart is the staff. They genuinely care about their patrons’ safety, which makes me feel comfortable coming here on my own. That peace of mind, plus the good drinks, makes this my go-to neighborhood spot.
Went here during Wicker Park Fest and sat outside. The waitress was so nice and did an amazing job with a heavy load. We tipped her well and enjoyed the service. One of the two bouncers here was rude to me out of nowhere. I was trying to exit the bar on my way back from the restroom and he was having a prolonged conversation with a girl in the doorway. I said “Excuse me” quietly and then tried to go around them. I then heard “Would it kill you to wait two minutes?” Followed...
This is a great bar, very dark inside with red string lights. We came here on a Saturday at 5:30. There were people at the bar and at tables, but it wasn’t crowded and when we left around 6:30 it also wasn’t crowded.

The bartender was attentive, and not annoying.

Overall a great place to grab a drink while in Wicker.

They also had a dog in the bar, v fun.
