• 
  Bar/Lounge
  Candlelite Chicago Rogers Park/West Rogers Park
  For decades the green martini glass on this neighborhood saloon’s neon sign was a beacon for wonderful cracker-thin-crust pizza—and still is. That’s even after a group of regulars took it over—including a culinary school grad—and installed flat-screen TVs in practically »

  Bar/Lounge
  Edgewater Lounge Edgewater
  The only problem with the Edgewater Lounge is that it's become the fallback date spot for my boyfriend and me: one wishes for more options, but there's really no place nearby that offers such an elevated combination of food, drink, »
• 
  Classic Bar
  Happy Village Ukrainian Village/East Village
  With board games and a Ping-Pong room, this is a place you could easily pass a few hours reconnecting with your childhood, and maybe for this reason it attracts a younger crowd than some of the other neighborhood institutions. It »

  Classic Bar
  Hungry Brain Roscoe Village  1
  Hungry Brain is one of the coziest spots in Chicago. You've probably passed this small bar over and over and never realized it was there. Its interior is comfortable and lit with the glow of beer signs and Christmas lights. »

  Bar/Lounge
  Morseland Rogers Park/West Rogers Park
  Rogers Park mainstay Morseland has music just about nightly, a solid menu of food (brunch is rumored to be especially good), and an outdoor patio that's open when the weather permits. The beer list is respectable: currently ten taps, 29 »
• 
  Music venue
  The Whistler Logan Square
  Part storefront art installation, part eclectic music venue (and record label), mostly craft-cocktail mecca, the Whistler is a Chicago destination, forget about neighborhood spot. Just don’t let the Friday- and Saturday-night lines deter you from visiting at more reasonable hours. »
