    So I been here once before with a friend I ran into had a great experience the bartender was very…read morenice and very attentive and I actually met some cool new friends who I still talk to . This time I decided to go in right around 1 am and I was only planning on staying for about 15 min because I was waiting for a friend to pick me up at the train station across the street so I wanted to kill time i know that they were open bc I saw the manager (shorter guy black hair )come out with a beer in his hand and drink it in front of the business while talking on the phone loudly. When I walked up to the door it was locked and the bartender looked confused .. so I tried to call them on their phone and they both. Looked at me as if I'm committing some type of crime because I was asking them why I couldn't come inside . They both told me to fuck off and kept the door locked . Extremely unprofessional . The manager could have Atleast came up to me and made up something to not be rude but he didn't even bother doing that . The bartender looked confused but I only put 5 stars so they could see this . You guys are ridiculous.... Idk about ever coming back again and I'll be letting everyone know about this . I never been locked out of a bar in my life and i dont think I'll be referring anyone to stop at this place ever again. unprofessional. hope u lose all ur business

    I lived in the area from 2008-2009 and found this place one night, loved it and frequented it…read moreoften. Nice small cash-only neighborhood bar, bartenders always introduced themselves to you off the bat, many nights sitting around with a group of people of varying ages and jobs, all taking turns buying each other rounds- I stop by when I visit Chicago every few years and always a nice spot. People say if you are new the regulars stop and stare, not sure how valid that is but I spent age 30-31 there and now stop by in my early 40's so I don't care, and I have run into a few regulars who remembered me after a few minutes of chat. Clean and safe spot with great service and awesome owner/owners

    Really cool neighborhood dive bar. Very clean. Fun decor and art work. I appreciated the Prince…read morepainting. I also appreciated the old school pinball machine and pool table. Helpful and friendly service. The bartender was great. They do mystery shots here and I appreciate the fun, and they're only $2! You roll a dice and see which number you get. None of the mystery bottles are straight liquor, which is a relief. They are all mixes. The mystery shot I had smelled really good and tasted sweet. I also had a cocktail. For a dive bar, the cocktail prices seemed a little high ($14) at first, but I can tell they use good quality ingredients for these craft cocktails so it makes sense. I had the Port in the Storm and it was okay. I couldn't really taste the flavors listed, especially the rum. My friend had a glass of rosé and the pour seemed a little small. I noticed they have a really nice happy hour with 50% off many items so I'll have to come back for that. Welcoming atmosphere and positive vibes. I would definitely come here again.

    We had our wedding at Moonflower, and it was amazing! We…read moreoriginally found Moonflower on Zola. Although we are from the area, we had never visited before, and the photos immediately caught our attention. The bar fit our vibe perfectly, and after visiting a few times, we knew it was the right place for us. We rented both spaces: the main bar upstairs and Nightshade, the speakeasy downstairs. Moonflower has a small stage in the main bar, which we used for our ceremony. The space already has so much character that it needed very little decorating. We brought small flower vases and an altar piece that the bride and her now mother in law made together. After the ceremony, we held cocktail hour and served food buffet style in the main bar. Later, everyone moved downstairs to Nightshade. Its lounge atmosphere and dance floor were perfect for our 50 to 60 guests. Some people relaxed around the cocktail tables while others danced, so everyone could enjoy the night in their own way. Moonflower's event organizer, Morgan, was wonderful. She made the entire planning process feel easy and was a joy to work with. She helped turn our ideas into reality, assisting with day of logistics, décor, beverage packages, and every question that came up. She was always responsive and available. Morgan also helped us think through details that had not occurred to us, including coffee for our guests, explaining the parking situation, contacting nearby businesses about using their lots, and recommending DJs. We ultimately hired one of the DJs she suggested. Her extra support was incredibly helpful and took a great deal of stress out of planning. If you have not tried Moonflower's drinks, you are missing out. Their regular cocktail menu is fantastic, and our experience was even more special because of a custom cocktail session with Zach. He created signature drink options for each of us based on our tastes and favorite cocktails. Every option was spectacular, and the final drinks felt personal and special. We chose Funeral Potatoes for the food. Since they already handle the food at Moonflower, we were able to try many dishes beforehand. Our guests raved about everything. We especially recommend the brussels sprouts, deviled eggs, and caprese sandwiches. Alexis, who heads up Funeral Potatoes, was also extremely helpful with selecting the menu. The only outside food we brought in was our wedding cake. The entire staff was phenomenal. Everyone treated the occasion with the perfect balance of care, professionalism, and fun. The night went off without a hitch and was truly one of the best nights of our lives. Moonflower was also extremely reasonable compared with other venues we considered in the city, especially with an open bar and food available on site. Street parking was plentiful, and none of our guests had trouble finding a spot. For anyone looking for a relaxed wedding for 50 to 60 people with a memorable lounge atmosphere, fantastic staff, buffet style food, and exceptional cocktails, Moonflower should be at the top of your list.

    Super cute date night spot!…read more That being said, I went to meet a date and the staff was incredibly kind while I waited nearly 40 minutes for my date to show up late. (Insane of me to wait at all at that point, I know) I didn't end up eating the food here, but the beer selection was lovely, and the ambiance was a vibe. Will come back, definitely with someone else.
