The Southern is a central gathering place where the tallest order of the day is a cocktail, conversation and relaxation.
Taking its cue from the laid back way of southern life, this low-down Bucktown bar offers a deep selection of small batch bourbons, micro-brews, hearty whiskeys

When hunger strikes - as it always does when people get together – Executive Chef Cary Taylor satisfies with a menu that raises the bar on bar food.
