All because a few years back my brother took me to his favorite cocktail bar in Detroit and I hated…read morethe drinks and was a sourpuss about it he usually refuses to take me to his other treasured places. However I think the holiday spirit got to him a couple of weeks ago because he took me to Consignment which is one of he and his wife's faves. The name is as it says - the bar doubles as a secondhand store and whatever is on display is for sale. I adored it! The service was awesome - I always love chopping it up with Black bartenders - and the crowd was very very queer. I was legitimately in heaven. So much doesn't feel safe right now - especially with the J6 goon squad running amok in Chicago trafficking people. It was nice to be among my people enjoying great drinks in a buzzy atmosphere. Because we are old, we got there by 730 on a Saturday and surprisingly it was already packed! Patience won the day though and within 45 minutes we snagged some stools against the wall. I had a great time here and hope to return!

Anyone who enjoys both vintage and a tasty libation will love Consignment Lounge! The decor (most…read morefor sale) is outstanding. Some prices were not too bad, but some things were rather costly. While I have so far only been there one time, I would imagine the decor switches often, since it's mostly all for sale. So always something new to see! I got the vibe that many regulars stopped in, as the bartenders were familiar with many faces. The service was excellent, even for us, a couple of first-timers. This bar may not be ideal for large-ish parties, due to how seating is. For instance, we go out often with two other couples, and I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable showing up with a group of six, in case they were busy, and we could not all sit together. I failed to ask if they reserve the bigger seating areas, so maybe that is an option. Draft beer folks may be let down, as they seemingly only ever have three taps, with one being seasonal and not noted on the website. Their "lite" beer option is not listed on the website, but rather noted to be posted on-site. Since this place has been on my radar, Son of Juice is constant on the draft beer menu. Worth noting is that they do have a longer list of bottles and cans. I have not tried any of their craft cocktails, but it's not a bad list. Must mention that they have a cool little basket of vintage pins, in case anyone reading this is into those. I found one that was from an annual tractor pull event near Green Bay, WI that I used to attend almost every year when I lived in the area.

Went to on a Sunday for bottomless brunch to celebrate with family and friends for our anniversary…read more Food was amazing and the mimosas were spot on. Nick was awesome. Came back for some drinks with friends after leaving a local restaurant and did a round of shots as a night cap. Nick was there and was extremely friendly also the other bartender was a vibe. We will be back for sure!

"Welcome back." I…read morehesitate. I know with absolute certainty that I have never stepped foot in Chicago. Yet, the bartenders greet us with such a warm and friendly energy that I know with absolute certainly that I have been a regular at this bar for years. Decades. Centuries. I know within my soul that this was my go-to bar in a past life (and hopefully in the next). Just as welcoming as the awesome people are the $1 PBRs and $3 shots of tequila. And of course they hand out free hot dogs every night at midnight, which in my (intoxicated) mind was cemented as the definitive Chicago dog, even if it comes with no toppings whatsoever. And fittingly complementing the amazing energy of the bar is a 10 hour Youtube video of that memed Ukrainian kid dancing at a club playing endlessly on the TVs. Rocking sunglasses and looking like a stud, absolutely grooving without a single care in the world, and effortlessly matching every single song on the bar's playlist. That kid truly embodies the spirit of this bar. No matter what day it is, what time of day it is, or who visits, the bar's energy always works. Vibing to Black Eyed Peas on a Monday night never felt better. Imma be... back one day, rest assured. I genuinely can't wait for the next time I'm greeted with, "Welcome back."

The very best balance of cozy and dive if you're looking for a dance/goth/alternative space with…read moreexpertly-curated music, fine selection of beverages (even fancy sodas, for those who don't drink!), eagle-eyed security, and lifelong scene patrons who know how to act. The fact that pretty much all of the 1-stars here are from entitled whiners who had issues with security or didn't like the music tells you all you need to know if you're a well-behaved adult looking for a grown-up space to safely be yourself. The staff takes security very seriously, which is absolutely vital in a club of their size that keeps the hours they do in a majority residential neighborhood. It's possible they're overly cautious sometimes, but I'd rather somewhere cared too much about safety than too little. Compared to most "underground" spots, they're downright immaculate. I adored Neo, but LB feels like dancing in someone's living room by comparison. But don't let the classed up decor fool you--the staff are nightlife industry veterans who have been over your sh*t for decades. Had a bad experience? I guarantee you were probably the wrong one.

They do not have any tolerance for money what so ever and have an over flow of people at the bar…read morethe need a new dj that accepts bribes because they won't play extra songs past hours and the boss is not tolerant of crap bc all he wants to do is close up the day
