You can find something in almost any style and vibe that you prefer whether it is something more chill or more upscale. Here are some of the best bars you should check out in Chicago!
Located on the outskirts of town, Hala Kahiki tiki bar is a low key looking little shack in the middle of nowhere…but it sure is a gem worth trying!

If you like fruity and strong Hawaiian style drinks, this place is the best!
A sexy, jazzy, speakeasy vibe, The Violet Hour is the perfect place for a chill but classy atmosphere and upscale cocktails. Its great for after work happy hour, or a romantic evening out. You will definitely feel like you are taken back into the 1920’s here.
Another amazing Hawaiian place to try is Three Dots And A Dash. Located deep in the city on River North, this bar has some of the best reviews for drinks. To some this place may be very “girly” but there is no shame in loving those fruity drinks when they are that good! A great place for a night out!
Rooftop, brunch, and drinks, what is there not to love?! Known to have one of the best views of the city, Cindy’s rooftop is always poppin with a good and delicious time! Drink up on those mimosas while eating yummy french toast and getting those Instagram aesthetics ready!
