    When da homies link up it's always GUD TIMEZ!!! We love a great Silent party, so we decided to give Chicago a try. Tickets purchased online, flight booked & bags packed. I must say the event was organized very well. Tickets are scanned at the door, sanitized headphones given & you can party up or downstairs. The bartenders (Meg, Megan, & I didn't catch the other bartenders name) & two DJ's with plenty of energy & awesome conversation. I must say the venue was very well air conditioned for the amount of people that attended. PRAISE DA LORRRRD-T!!! The drinks were strong & price effective which was a delight. Our liquid poison for the night was crown 'n' Coke, Malibu 'n' pineapple, & maker's mark w/Coke. Plus shots of Flor de Cana rum. Needless to say we were LITTY N DA CITY!!! The music was EPIC old school R& B or New skoo TRAP. Three hours later, 4 drinks & two shots each we were all danced out. But we definitely enjoyed ourselves at this event.

    New Boxing Machine at Trace!! Hands up...

    Got a quick drink here before the Cubs game on a Friday afternoon. They had a nice selection of beers on tap or bottles. Prices ranged from 5 to 7 dollars per beer. Service was fast and place looks well maintained. Place has alot of ample seating and appears to have a second floor, which I didn't check out. They also had food specials as well.

    Good place for those who like baseball history. It's literally next to Wrigley Field and is open…read moreeven when no game is being played. Lucky Dorr has reasons to come besides baseball, and you don't have to be a fan to have a good time. A lot of choices from local breweries. There's also some ballpark style food like pretzels and junk. Curious about this, we made our way here when there wasn't a game. It was actually pretty chill and laid back with almost no one at the bar and patio. This is located next to the Cubs statues. Go check those out whether you're a fan of the team or just baseball in general. Those who don't care about the loser team can still enjoy the offerings. It's about $8 a pint, which is a bit of a ripoff, but expected with the location. There's selections from local breweries such as Pollyanna. Also there's food. It's $8 for a big ass Pretzel. Even if you don't like the Cubs, it's a nice little bar. It's open during the season even when there's not a game. The beer is a good sample of the local breweries, plus they have pretzels that are good for sharing.

Door guy had beer recommendations for us, so we already knew what to order. Nice that they were still serving in actualy glassware despite being really busy.

    Only giving two stars because of the lovely bartender that served us (didn't catch their name)…read more There was however, another bartender (blonde) that seemed to have some issue with my friend and I being in the bar. We came in around 1:15am, thinking this would be a cool bar to end the night. The first bartender informed us that last call was approaching. We only wanted one round, so we immediately closed out after ordering. That bartender was very attentive and pleasant during the entire transaction. At 1:50am, the other bartender (who wasn't even serving us/hadn't spoke to us) came over and said we needed to start chugging. Her words: "I'm not going to tell you to get the f* out, but you need to chug". She kept telling us we needed to chug, and I kindly told her I wasn't chugging anything because we already paid and I can literally just leave. She brought up the bar closing soon (we already heard the very loud announcement for last call). She proceeded to blame it on having a bad day. Mind you, someone next to me literally just came in, and was being served. She tried to back out of it and kept repeating we'll know when it's time to go. I'm not sure what kind of establishment this is, but she didn't say anything to anyone else but us, the only two Black women at the bar at the time. I don't understand why she felt like it was okay to direct her "bad day" at us, sitting there calmly with two half drunken beers, while there were plenty of other people still up and active at the bar. The behavior displayed, completely unacceptable.
