Five Star
1424 West Chicago Avenue (map) (312) 850-2555
The rock ‘n’ roll theme at this West Town spot mixes an old-school
1940s deco element with modern touches. Sidle up to the 75-foot,
L-shaped bar or settle into cushy booths near oversized mirrors. When
the weather’s warm, floor-to-ceiling windows open up the front of the
bar to the sidewalk. If you’re looking for more seclusion, a
semi-private lounge area in back sets quite the scene: Vintage
“tattoos” cover the walls, and there’s even a stripper pole. If you
like other, er, bar games, try the pool table in back.
This spot
specializes in bourbons, stocking 30 American varieties and a cocktail
menu featuring 14 bourbon-based drinks. Boubon’s not your thing? Choose
from 16 beers on tap or the fully-stocked bar. A playful, upscale bar
menu features everything from specialty burgers to tempura chicken
fingers to the “Sid & Nancy” Honeymooner sandwich. Tap your toes to
a weekly soundtrack of indie rock, punk, rockabilly and metal; DJs rock
out on weekends.

Featured Review from TimeOutChicago
November 01, 2010There’s no shortage of DJs and bartenders in the city who spend their Fridays and Saturdays slinging drinks they wouldn’t drink and records they wouldn’t listen to at home. Five Star now provides a night of respite for the industry playing rock tunes we all love and serving plenty of High Lifes and shots of Jameson. more at timeout.com
