Where are the Best Bartenders in Chicago, Illinois?
When my liver demands satisfaction the Clark Street Ale House delivers, warding off my shakes with an ample selection of top shelf liquor and high quality beer. Probing the depths of my body’s dependence on alcohol is easily accomplished by simply perusing the fine collection of bourbon and scotch that sit proudly displayed top shelf. As I ravenously devour double portions of 30-year old scotch, I must admire the professional manner in which the barkeep jigger pours my lifeblood. Without a doubt, the apex of my existence has come to fruition as I wash down a triple portion of 108 Proof bourbon with a well-hopped cask conditioned 2 Hearted Ale. This leaves me speaking incoherent babble as I feel my insides dissolve into what certainly will become the gentle kiss of an early death. The barkeep was very professional when he told me that I had been over-served and perhaps it was time I “found someplace else¿.
Being new to town, some friends and I went to Sheffield’s. It’s right down the street, within stumbling distance. The place was packed and looked great. We had a rawkin’ good time, but at $4 a bottle for bud light, I can’t say I’ll be heading there too often. Maybe they have specials during the week, but the weekend is killer on the tab.Pros + great atmosphere, huge barCons – expensive
Hi there – I celebrated my 40th bday there with close friends. He had a WONDERFUL TIME. Great service and excllent food! The Prime Rib was the best I’ve ever had and I’ve dined at the best rated Steakhouses inthe city. Gibson, Capital Grille, Magnums, Rosebud, Chop House, Gene’s. We had drinks and gathered in the bar lounge while waiting to be seated and we had so much fun. I don’t remember the bartenders name, mike or bob or something, he was hysterical and told us how much HE loved working there. So that says a lot about the place. I had the best birthday in forever there and the staff all came and sang to me. I think the entire restaurant knew it was my birthday cause even the host wished me well when I passed the front desk. It was really busy though so I don’t think I’d just show without a reservation. my boyfriend also got kind of jealous with all the cute guys in the bar trying to buy me drinks. Too bad. haha I am going back for sure
