Went here with 5 friends last night in pursuit of the group cocktail PSL which was a bourbon pumpkin cocktail served in a hollowed out pumpkin. OMG it was amazing. All the fall fun I wanted. The pumpkin was frozen so the cocktail was cold but it showed up with the stem on fire. A great (and expensive) drink to share. We also enjoyed The cocktails: Papa Don't Peach, which came in a big wooden nesting doll, it has this woody aftertaste that was really good. The Keep of the Grass, which came in a little bucket of grass, it was good too. My friend had the negroni, which was a strong drink for one... but she didn't notice it was $30. That's a bit much for one cocktail so make sure you read the prices. The root beer float with fernet ice cream was really good, even though I don't like fervent that much, it worked in this drink. We tried the food too. Steak tartar was good. Baked Oysters were very rich, I could only eat one. The curried bits weren't spicy at all but they were tasty. The monkey bread wasn't cheesy but was a good piece of bread to help digest all those cocktails. read more

This is my drink served in a plastic bag! It also tastes great. Cozy place with the nicest servers and obviously talented bartenders. We had the cinnamon roll to split, and that hit the spot! I would love to come back and try out the rest of the inventive drink menu. read more

Billy Sunday - My drink in a plastic bag - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

this place used to be one of my favorites in the logan neighborhood for ages. it had been a couple years since we went in but had two back to back annoying experiences that had me thinking it's prob time for me to move on. one time they wouldn't make my father-in-law like a super standard drink (it was like a manhattan or old fashioned or martini i can't remember which) but they were basically like "our weird spin on it or the highway" type stuff idk it's cool in your 20s when you're being a snob but you hit a point where you're like yo enough just give me the option to have it normal. then went in recently celebrating a friends accomplishment and they were super rude, place was nearly empty and they were still completely up our ass about having an exact explicit number of ppl coming that could not change once we sat down, we tried to say there might be 1-2 people who were tentative who hoped to come celebrate with her last minute but they for some reason didn't want to be remotely flexible and were really giving us an excessive amount of lip over the possibility that god forbid one guy joined us later after our group sat down, it was really not a big deal. i can take some attitude and used to work in the industry but this was really unwarranted and the type of stink that makes u just be like uh nah, somewhere else. also if they delivered the goods it'd make up for it but multiple ppl didn't like their drinks and some of the food was objectively gross mush. i honestly feel bad even writing a negative review of an institution, someone's effort and like a place we used to love but i feel more bad that going here the last time was my suggestion and the person we were celebrating ended up having kind of a (temporarily) shitty time as a result of my suggestion. plenty of bars nearby that are welcoming and killing it. i won't be back but wish everyone in there the best lol idk man, cheers. read more

Tasty, unique drinks (we tried the Penicillin - delicious enough to order more than 1!) and great service. We will come back.

This is your straight ahead hipster cocktail bar. It is nice to visit a place and get exactly what you expect. Beautiful, interesting space with inventive cocktails and industrious service. We went quite early and got seats at the bar. We sampled a wide variety of drinks. The cocktails aim to delight all the senses, their look, their bouquet and of course, their flavor. The prices are about what you would expect. We would certainly return, but I think this is a place for people that want that something extra. read more

What happened to this place. All the old staff is now gone and it shows. We've been in twice now this year and service (inattentive, outright rude, etc.) and drink quality (they sound as unique as ever, but something is missing) has taken a nosedive off a steep cliff. I hope they turn things around ASAP. This used to be our favorite cocktail bar in the city, recently its become a disappointment. We might give it one more try in the coming weeks but only for nostalgia at this point, if I hadn't known what it once was I wouldn't be back. read more

I am going to preface this review by saying that my boyfriend was so incredibly excited to come to Billy Sunday and left very disappointed. He is what you would call a cocktail geek. He reads books about tiki drinks and alcohol for fun in his spare time. No, he's not a bartender, but he is engaged with the bartending community in a different capacity, as both a professional and leisurely pursuit. I say this because when we go to cocktail bars, he kind of geeks out, I'm just along for the ride so to speak. He enjoys talking to bartenders, asking about the different liquors, and is a very naturally inquisitive person. In fact, one of his bartender friends absolutely insisted that we come to Billy Sunday during our trip to Chicago. So naturally, we went. The first part of our time at Billy Sunday was largely uneventful. We ordered our drinks and my boyfriend started engaging in conversation with the bartenders. I ordered a Space Camp and one of the bartenders recommended that my boyfriend order the Victorian, which was a solid selection. We also ordered puppy chow, which was delicious. I did not particularly care for Space Camp; it tasted like liquid key lime pie, meaning that it was overly sweet and oddly milky in a way that I did not necessarily expect from the ingredients listed. However, my boyfriend's absolute favorite dessert is key lime pie. Given that he was already talking to both of the bartenders at this point, he decided to ask for the recipe and that is where things started to go south. Now, I'm sure you're probably thinking that maybe it was rude of my boyfriend to ask for the recipe. Well, not quite. See, it's apparently quite common in the cocktail world and never has been a problem at any of the top-notch cocktail bars we've been to in capital cities in Europe, North America, or South America in the past. Normally, the answer would be a yes, and they'd have no problem giving out recipe or they'd simply decline with a polite no. Either way, it would not be a big deal. Welp, that was apparently not the case at Billy Sunday. The bartender acted as if this simple question were some sort of personal affront and instead of simply declining, started walking away from us and said from the end of the bar, "If I give that out to you, then you would have no reason to come back." Hmm, okay. I guess they must not have much confidence in their bartending abilities if they think that two novices can best them at home? We go out to nice cocktail bars for the ambience, but that's beside the point. The point is not that Billy Sunday didn't give out the recipe. It's ultimately theirs to give out or not, but it's that we were made to feel extremely uncomfortable for having asked. In any case, the bartender didn't speak to us again after this unfortunate incident and we did not really feel welcome at the bar any longer, so we hurried up and my boyfriend finished his drink (I left the cursed Space Camp). We did not want to end the night on a sour note, so we popped over to Scofflaw and had a much more pleasant conversation with the bartenders over there. I highly recommend Scofflaw! read more

Crazy unique cocktail bar. Bartenders were unbelievably friendly and the manager treated us like we were family. We had the Tea Time (comes in a plastic bag like a adult Capri Sun) and Keep Off The Grass which was in a bucket with real grass. The cocktails were awesome, the presentation was cool but funny at how over the top. I would definitely come back to try more of their unique combination. I mean Keep Off The Grass has green beans muddled in it and for a veggie freak I went crazy! Highly highly highly suggest if read more

When I say the service was bad, it's only because it was...just awful. Our server had an attitude from the start. I dared to ask a clarifying question about the drink she was explaining only to be met with a "like I said...." It was fine at that point, though. Everyone has a moment. Our drinks, which were okay (Smoke and Mirrors was decent, and the Flowing Konomi, recommended by our server, was not) took a while to arrive, although they were not yet busy. It was a gorgeous night and we were in no hurry, so we rolled with it. When our server returned to see how we liked the drinks we said they were good, because we're generally polite humans. My dining companion made small talk, asking about her favorite cocktails and we received rote answers that she is probably too used to saying. We ordered the dahl appetizer and off she went. While we awaited out appetizer, the patio got busier and busier, and our server hadn't come back. It was about 30 minutes before I caught her eye. She came over and asked how we were doing. She didn't notice at all we'd not yet received our food. I asked how the appetizers were coming and she said she'd go check. A few minutes later she returned saying they needed to make more flatbread and that was the hold up. Sure it was. It was about 10 minutes later that we finally got our food. The dahl was spicy and delicious. She never came back again, though she was around at other tables. About 10 minute after finishing, we put the credit card out, because of course we were not having dinner at a place with such abysmal service. We'd been there over an hour and she hadn't bothered to take an order anyway! We couldn't even get our check. We saw her on her cell phone, then having a several minute long convo with another table. We even left the dining area and she didn't notice. Finally she turned around to see us standing on the sidewalk. "Nothing else?" Gee, maybe an hour ago! We got our check and left, never to return. Hard pass on this place. read more

I'll be real, I came here a few months ago and I'm still trimming the hair some of those drinks put on my chest. Haha. Just kidding. I'm leaving the chest hair as is. Gonna wear it like a curly badge of honor for drinking a beverage so powerful and peaty that it came close to making my ears pop. I like to drink. I think it's an activity that builds a lot of character... and I mean, I didn't finish either of their biographies, but I feel like it worked out pretty well for Hemmingway and Kerouac, so who am I to argue? Anyway, as much as I like to enjoy the occasional premium-priced cocktail or two just as much as the next guy, but if it tastes one iota like alcohol, I get gag face and things turn sour for my state of soberness pretty soon after that. If you're like me and kind of a puss when it comes to strong-tasting drinks, I'd recommend 'Algren's Sling.' It tastes really tropical but isn't super sweet and is served in a coconut cup, which is just plain fun. We got a few tiny plates of stuff while we were here with the pickles (a-ok, but not super pickle-y) and the bread with unsalted local, something something trendy that I personally wished had the salt, but my date loved it and noted that he could eat that bread and butter every day for every meal. Inside is cute as a button and our server looked 'too cool', but turned out to be just plain cool, so that was a nice surprise given the hipster reputation around these parts. read more

Billy Sunday is the cool, wool tweed blazer wearing guy, who took a class on how to butcher a whole pig. We stepped in on a chilly Friday night at 11pm and there was barely room to stand. An affable host greeted us and offered to take our number and call us when a table became available. Luckily, we had great timing as a few groups were transitioning out onto their next destinations. We were seated at one of the two tables in the front in no time. The space itself is small in size so expect lines outside the door on weekends. The bar is the centerpiece and takes up the majority of the narrow room. Tin ceilings compliment the intimate setting and cozy decor. We didn't try anything off the menu, which looked diverse and, dare I say, exotic? Let's just say tater tots and the usual suspects were nowhere to be found. We tried several of the cocktails which were well made, complex and tasty. I had the Against the Bliss and Negroni. Both were top notch but I preferred the more bitter flavor of the Negroni to the citrus like Bliss. Go for the cocktails. Billy Sunday will undoubtedly be a popular spot during the weekend, but it seems to me to work best as a place to catch up one on one with a friend during a less crowded weeknight. Bringing a large group here wouldn't work well - it's just not Billy's style. read more

Ambergris? Seriously?? When I see ambergis on a cocktail menu, I feel like the mixologist (does he prefer "beverage engineer" or "beverage artist" I wonder?) is really pushing the line between creative invention and haughty affectation. Various obscure liqueurs, house-made bitters, and other unorthodox ingredients have been a hallmark of quality cocktail bars since this trend began...but come on, ambergris? Has Billy Sunday jumped the shark right out of the gate? Thankfully the staff pulls this place back from the brink of twee-dom. They are well informed and proud of what they do, but not at all pretentious. It helps that this place is super cool but very comfortable, like a cross between a modern traditional pub and an Edwardian parlor. All they need is one of those seasonal supplemental exterior entryways to protect their front-seated patrons from chilly drafts. For the record, the ambergris cocktail was pretty damn good. Although their aesthetic is best suited to winter, I will be back in the warm-weather months for gin drinks and bread & butter pickles. I wouldn't be surprised to find them combined in some way. read more

This might be my favorite Logan Square spot to hit up going forward! Very mellow, chill type of spot that can get pretty crowded even during normal weeknights. Been here on a couple of occasions and it never disappoints in terms of drinking selections and the deliciousness of the drinks. This last time I was there I started out with an old fashioned that has the cool ice ball inside of it...It was really good and hit the spot. We also enjoyed The Blackthorn, Clover Club & The Gibson. All very well crafted drinks that had us pretty buzzed. The Blackthorn was pretty exceptional as it included whiskey and gin...dangerous combo, but was good as hell! Service here is always primo and the atmosphere is dope. Not sure if you want to stay here for more than 1 or 2 drinks as you will run up a pretty nice tab...well worth it! read more

I am obsessed with the vibe here. It's the perfect spot to come to if you want a chill spot to come hangout but with amazing cocktails. It was so hard to pick something from the menu because everything looked so good. My favorite thing was the "Box Lunch" drink which came with goat's milk, genepi, palo cortado, and oatmeal spices. It also comes in a really cute milk pitcher which I loved. read more

While Billy Sunday is great in many areas, they excel the most in customer service. When paired up against other 'fancy' cocktail bars, the service here is just better, every time. It helps that we were serious regulars for years, but there's a reason we were. And every time I return, it's always the same. The host, the bartenders and the servers, they're all equally great. It's also very pretty and intimate. Again, when compared to other similar bars, Billy Sunday is prettier, classier, and cleaner. It's an absolutely perfect date spot. Their dinner menu changes, and I do prefer small plates here to a full dinner. A snack and a couple cocktails is a perfect time here. All of this goes without saying...the cocktails are delicious. read more

After 3 years, still my favorite establishment in the city. The quality of product and service has never declined. I've been to some of the best cocktails bars in San Francisco, New York, London, Boston, Miami, and Paris........and Billy Sunday takes the cake. read more

Billy Sunday is named after a 20th Century evangelical minister made famous for preaching against the supposed evils of alcohol. And while I can't claim that the irony of the bar's name makes for better-tasting drinks, it certainly makes me happy. But Billy Sunday would be an outstanding bar regardless of its name. For starters, the atmosphere is just what I like when going out for a drink. The long, narrow space is classy without feeling stuffy, intimate without feeling crowded, and moody without feeling drab. The atmosphere is complemented by a polite, knowledgeable, and refreshingly non-intrusive staff. And then there are the drinks. I've visited Billy Sunday on several occasions, and the cocktail menu has been different every time. And while I'm often unfamiliar with many of the ingredients they use, I have never had a drink that wasn't outstanding. If beer is more your speed, they have a modest bottle selection and several rotating taps as well. If you're in the mood for something a bit more esoteric, Billy Sunday specializes in Amari, Italian herbal liqueurs (popular examples are Campari and Fernet Branca). Their cheekily titled "Good Book" contains a list of these and other specialty items, many of which you won't find on any other bar menu in Chicago. But be warned: most of the drinks in this book are extremely expensive. There's a reason that Billy Sunday is frequently listed among the best bars in Chicago. It offers a great drinking environment, an accommodating staff, and some of the best drinks in the city. Do yourself a favor and stop in. P.S. I grew up in Billy Sunday's hometown of Winona Lake, Indiana (and even visited his house - now a museum - on a grade school field trip). So I'm a wee bit biased as far this bar is concerned. read more

Really cool bar with a nice cocktail selection! I got a drink that was similar to a tequila and tonic. It was a nice place to meet with friends for a drink. Very dimly lit, but with a crowd for a nice ambiance. read more

Is it confession time? For my confession is that I love this place but I have absolutely no idea what was in the drink I was drinking. The interior is sultry with crystal drops hanging from the chandeliers, lots of dark wood and a bar that rivals some of my favorite old school bars. The clientele? On the Sunday I was there, they were warm and welcoming. But back to that drink . . .was it whiskey? Rye? I have no idea . . .but I loved that the ice was clear, the glass was interesting unto itself and I left feeling about as hazy as the light shining through those crystal chandeliers. read more

Billy Sunday you are sexy! Small,sleek, dark, intimate pretty much the definition of sexy. We were seated at one of the high tables against the wall. A few cocktails and a Pimento Cheese Ball spread was the order of the night. The cheese spread was nothing special it tasted like Velveeta that we could spread on small pieces of bread. Not that that's a bad thing, it still tasted pretty good. I always say cheese is like sex, even when its bad its still pretty good. But the cocktails were the star of the show. Anxiety's Door (Bacanora-Tequila, Citra hops, Persimmon, lime, bitters) William Jack ( Brandy, Alpine Liquor, Gensha, Jackfruit, Bitter) Dont Speak ( Italia Pisco-Brandy, Poached Pear, Swiss Fernet, Lemon) These cocktails can only be described as sophisticated, innovative and super delicious. Some of the best cocktails I have ever had. Drinking these cocktail creations in a very sleek and sexy setting made it a truly memorable experience. Overall the drinks were beyond amazing, the atmosphere was wayyy too cool and the service was impeccable. Billy Sunday you may be my favorite bar of all-time! read more

After being to Billy Sunday multiple times now, I can say that they are consistent on great drinks, food, and service. The staff was friendly and extremely knowledgable from start to finish. I would trust their recommendations again when I return. Drinks: box lunch and living proof are both delicious and well presented. I can't recall the names of the other drinks I had, but enjoyed them all. Food: lasagna was to die for. I am usually not one to enjoy ricotta cheese, but the flavors blended perfectly into a dish that I loved. Tomatoes and artesian bread were a great combo. There is a variety of breads, each of which paired well with the tomatoes. The tomatoes were savory and slightly sweet, they were served with a salt that went nicely on top. Steak tartare was fresh and flavorful, another dish I would recommend. The mustard chips complemented the tartare well and were awesome. The pig ears missed the mark for me. I just wasn't too into the flavor, it could have had more in my opinion. read more

Billy Sunday - Living proof-- awesome, pretty drink! - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This was the perfect cocktail bar. It had great atmosphere and a solid variety of cocktail options. I got the Sunday Candy which was quite delicious and reminded me of a espresso martini. I also got the old fashioned which I was not a fan of due to the rabarbaro flavor but I should have looked up the flavor profile before ordering. I'll definitely be back here and will recommend it to any friends looking for a fun first date spot! read more

Ok, so I want to give this place 5 stars, but since I kept ordering the same drink, I feel like I need to order more to merit the 5th star. Having said that, this place is fabulous. The decor is amazing and the ambience is perfect. Amazing cocktails and an environment that isn't so loud you can't hear yourself think. I had the Improved Whiskey Cocktail and they nailed it. Very tasty and very strong, but not so strong that the liquor was overpowering. In fact it sort of sneaks up on you when you get up to hit the restroom. Oh and I'd be remiss if I did not compliment the amazing server. My server was awesome. I'm blanking on her name, but she looked like Sarah Silverman, except if Sarah Silverman was hot. Great service and she knows her GoT which earns her bonus. I really should give this place 5 stars. I'll have to go back and solidify my decision. read more

Billy Sunday - Improved Whiskey Cocktail - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

DRINKS: We were dissappointed to find that the Blackthorne was not available due to an understocking of bitters. But we ordered the Yes We Can! and The Victorian. The Yes We Can! was more visually pleasing than anything. Certainly not one of their more powerful drinks, but it was beautifully presented and very cute. The Victorian was a chair sinker. Very boozy and rich/ smoky in flavor. Between the two of us, sharing one Victorian and two YWC's was enough. SERVICE: The Service was good. A cute, bubbly waitress with a pleasant demeanor. ATMOSPHERE: The atmosphere and location are what made this experience great. Its located right across from a beautiful square with a beautiful monument. This makes for a great outside patio view in nice weather. And its in the Logan Square area, which makes for a lot of interesting characters as passerby. My favorite was a guy in a mustard yellow suit (jacket/ slacks) with a strongman mustache and jesus sandals. Mustard Guy, if you are out there, this is doubling as a missed connection post. read more

This place is so cool, it was on a "Best New Bar" list before it even opened! The hype is right and this place isn't as pretentious as people make it out to be, but I can see how they may feel that way. I've always had excellent service and expertly crafted drinks. I've seen people ask for Jameson and Captain Morgan drinks (the latter being an ex boyfriend. Derp), but the bartenders won't scoff or turn their noses up. Instead, they will explain similar liquors they have and maybe give a sample or two. Once, I came here with a few friends after having drinks at Longman & Eagle. One friend complained about the Old Fashioned being $2 more here, but he quickly changed his mind after the first sip! The speakeasy vibe is awesome and the food menu has creative options which I have yet to try. I want to bring more friends here, but it's hard getting them over to this area! read more

I want to give a "shout out" to one of the bartenders, Sammy, who is really talented, friendly, and takes making his drinks seriously. The chef is another staff member who is talented.

I mean really, what's life without a completely irresponsible, mid-week bar crawl? We popped in on the thirstiest of post-winter Thursday evenings, looking to do some damage. The demands were concise, but clear: we were to be served a variety of whisky-oriented cocktails until we were either blind drunk or something caught fire. Thankfully, only a little bit of one of those happened, and a good time was had by all. Standouts: Old Fashioned (so good, we ordered multiples), Sam From the Building (given the same treatment the Old Fashioneds received), and my favorite, Brooklyn (I'll just say we went to Brooklyn more than once without actually going). Our food order was scant, but necessary after the feverish pace with which we imbibed. Steak Tartare is an automatic menu must-do for me if it's on a menu, and it didn't disappoint. The Roasted Tomatoes were served in a jar and came with a TON of bread, which came in handy after the multiple rounds of drinks. A classy, yet unpretentious place in Logan Square with a flashy decor and a great food and drink menu. I came away tipsy and impressed, intending to return. read more

Amazing cocktails, some of the best I've had in the city. Fantastic service and a really cool neighborhood atmosphere vibe.

Desperate to see life outside of overpriced-but-home River North, I met up with a friend at Billy Sunday in hopes of finally exploring Local Gentrification Station Logan Square. I expected mean hipsters who would sniff out my lack of belonging and, I don't know, pummel me out of existence. I got there and found that the people who worked there were super genuinely nice. I arrived before my friend, and I had no fewer than three people ask me if I wanted to wait inside and if I wanted to sit inside or outside. This was truly a perfect bar experience, at least to me. It was a popular spot, but it didn't feel cramped or like they were trying to turn tables. My friend and I sat at a two-top for almost three hours and had very attentive people asking us if we wanted another drink, if we were enjoying our time there, etc. It was not so loud where we couldn't hear each other, which is a massive bonus! My friend and I started with the Hoar's Frost, which was somewhat sweet but not cloying or artificial in the slightest. It almost tasted like there was apricot in it, though I don't think there was. I tried a booze soda (as they call it), with gin and cherry flavors, and it was good - presented in a sealed soda bottle, too! Finally, I (uncharacteristically...) opted for drink #3. This was the Know Your Magi, and it did not disappoint. What can I say? I'm a sucker for drinks with egg whites in them. Billy Sunday might be out of the way for some, but it was charming without seeming too twee or try-hard. And its cocktail prices are not quite as hard to swallow as those in Wicker Park, River North, or other neighborhoods. read more

Add this to your list for your Logan Square bar crawl. Hmm, "crawl" is not bourgeois enough...let's try again - The Logan Square Libation Perambulation If you get a chance to see their website, the menu looks quite identical in nature.

I should update this one. I went back a few more times and really think I just had a bad experience in the beginning. Every subsequent trip was more enjoyable than the last, and even though I don't live in the area anymore I still think about the cocktails this place serves. They are outstanding, some of the best in the city. I'm returning to Chicago in a bit for a visit and this is one of the places I will return to for sure. read more

This spot has been on my long and ever growing list of places to check out for a while now, so I was super excited to finally make it there last Thursday night. The place is pretty small but has a ton of seating at the bar and has an overall warm/relaxed vibe. Drink menus can be intimidating these days with ingredients you've never heard of and often probably can't pronounce...so that's where service makes all the difference. Our server was really informed about the drinks and could easily describe how they taste or what they're similar to, so extra points for her! I was feeling adventurous that night and let her choose both of my drinks - Can I Kick It and Flowing Konomi. Absolutely get the Can I Kick It! 1) It comes in a cute sake tin and 2) is quite refreshing, with some frothiness from the egg white. Proud to say I have overcome my egg white in a mixed drink phobia. read more

Went here last Friday night with a friend for a few drinks. We ended up ordering two of the cocktails each and a beer, along with two snacks (finger food). The drinks were good, strong, and unique. I had never had drinks here, since I recently moved to Chicago, and was pleased with what I had gotten. All of the drinks are made with brands of alcohol that most people haven't heard of, but that doesn't mean it is bad, if fact it adds a little flair, since you don't really know the taste or quality (which is high) of what you're getting. The place is small, dimly lit, and a bit mysterious, but in a good way. Staff are friendly and efficent. If you can't decide on a drink, the waitresses/bar staff do a great job of describing each drink and it's flavors. I will definately be returning to this Logan Square gem. read more

I made the huge mistake of pregaming at another restaurant before arriving to Billy Sunday. I didnt know that I was going to be walking into somewhat of a Mecca for custom cocktails. BILLY (black girl clap) SUNDAY (black girl clap) AINT (black girl clap) PLAYIN (black girl clap) WITH (black girl clap) NONE (black girl clap) OF (black girl clap) US (black girl clap) . Even the Bartenders have the nerve to be modest. They vaguely mentioned how they have the best Old Fashion in the city. Most bars only fill your Old Fashion halfway. They give you a full glass! And its literally the best Old Fashion ive ever had. I followed it up with the "Papa Dont Peach" which was really good and the presentation was excellent. Its been awhile since I was this lit before 8:30pm due to day-light savings. And we only spent about $56 for four cocktails. Ill definitely be back! read more

Bar Crawl Stop 3. I have a new crush and his name is Billy Sunday. Girls, do you know that feeling you get when you walk into your favorite boutique store? The lighting is right, the staff is friendly and what they're serving up, you're buying! That's how I felt the first time I walked in here. Simultaneously like I had been here before and yet I was discovering it for the first time. Everyone who worked here was so nice and genuine, really a different feeling that the other places I visited in Logan Square. I loved the homemade tonic drinks which really created a unique flavor. I saw someone eating the crab dip and had to get one for myself. Great, fresh crab flavor. So simple but maybe one of the best snacks I had in the city. The thing about this place is the little details. Even a trip to the Ladies room was enjoyable and filled with the cutest things! read more
