Chicago’s Finest Bars: Where to Drink in the Windy City Right Now
The best bar lies in the eye of the beholder. Many are drawn to immaculate cocktails, while others chase after extensive beer lists. Some might only require a comfortable barstool in a cozy setting. It’s safe to say, though, that a few spots stand out from the crowd. These 10 Chicago bars, from high-end cocktail lounges to tried-and-true neighborhood escapes, are guaranteed to deliver the most memorable of drinking experiences.
Chicago’s 19 Greatest Restaurants
While the Windy City has always prided itself on its restaurant scene, in recent years, the rest of the country has taken note as well. Since the 2000s, the city has routinely picked up MICHELIN stars, launched the careers of star chefs such as Rick Bayless and Stephanie Izard, and played host to the James Beard Awards for the past five years and counting. The year 2017, when both Condé Nast Traveler and Bon Appétit magazines singled Chicago out for being America’s best restaurant city, was a windfall. Coming off a time that’s wreaked havoc on the restaurant industry as a whole, there’s never been a better time to celebrate the iconic spots that have shaped the city’s restaurant scene into the juggernaut it is today. From classic steakhouses to modern Korean food, these are The Greats: 19 restaurants that have helped define Chicago’s world-class dining scene.
