THE QUESTION: What is the most entertaining bar in the city?

“Spy Bar in River North. It’s a swanky lounge that is unpretentious, but you can smell the money. The women are appropriately underdressed.”

— GEORGE M.

“Debonair in Wicker Park. It’s the perfect place to grab a drink and dance all night. The DJs do some really sweet hip-hop/dance mixes, and it’s a lot of fun. And Monday nights are themed if you’re looking for some costume action.”

— TRISH GARCIA | ARTS & ARTISANS

“Crimson Lounge. It’s filled with beautiful people and full of energy and sexuality through its muted ambiance. Real eclectic place, but fun.”

— JEFFREY

“The bar at Tavern on Rush is one of my favorites. The crowd is a mix of all ages, and the food is great. It is always bubbling, though not too loud to interrupt a conversation.”

— ROANA BAXTER | CONCIERGE AT THE DRAKE

“Boston Blackies is great for burgers and $10 buckets on Monday and Tuesday. I like Small Bar too, with its food, great craft beer selection and outdoor patio.”

— KATIE B.

“Juicy on Milwaukee Ave. is a phenomenal wine and cheese bar. The upstairs lounge is cozy with booth seating and a great DJ. It’s a trendy neighborhood bar without the pretension.”
