What to do and see in River North, Illinois (IL): The Best Bars & Clubs

September 1, 2021 Ying Subia

The windy city is a cornucopia of modern art, fine dining, cutting edge comedy, and die-hard sports fans. Snap a photo of your reflection in the silver Cloud Gate sculpture at Millennium Park before heading to Grant Park to get hit with the refreshing spray of Buckingham Fountain. There are dozens of museums and theater companies in Chicago, so a cultural experience is never hard to find. You’re sure to laugh your head off at the Second City Theater, the professional launch pad of many famous comedians.

The Drifter

An orignal Speakeasy, pouring craft cocktails and offering live entertainment, located in Chicago's oldest bar, The Green Door Tavern.

Reviewed By LaurenB259 - Hamilton, United Kingdom

We were in the green door tavern above when the bar staff let us know about their "secret" speakeasy bar below. Just look for the secret door behind the book shelf for the way into The Drifter. We were there on a Tuesday night which we now know is their Sirens & psychos night. We were seated quickly as it wasn't too busy when we first entered, but it wasn't long before the place filled up. We enjoyed the atmosphere of the bar, horror movies playing on the screen, cocktails presented on a Ouija board like menu, and then to our surprise, burlesque performances throughout the night. Music was also at a good level, so it was easy to hold a conversation but not quiet enough that you could hear everyone elses. Cocktails were strong and flavourful, and staff were very helpful. I would recommend going to this bar, we had a wonderful couple of hours here.
