10 Overall Closest Nightlife
Lizzie McNeill's
(Nightlife - Pub)
400 N Mcclurg Ct, Chicago  60611 • 312-467-1992
Distance: ~0.26 mi *
        Description: RIVER NORTH. This diminutive Irish pub draws a mix of locals that like to swill Harp and Guinness and listen to the jukebox as they relax in front of the fireplace. The menu includes a mix of basic bar eats, including burgers, appetizers, salads, and sandwiches. Of course, many of the items are Irish in nature, like the Irish stew and the corned beef sandwich.

Billy Goat Tavern
(Nightlife - Bars)
430 N Michigan Ave, Chicago  60611 • 312-222-1525
Distance: ~0.38 mi *
        Description: MAGNIFICENT MILE. This tavern boasts quite an interesting history. It was made popular by a "Saturday Night Live" sketch in which short-order cooks yell "cheezborger." Even before the humorous SNL bit, however, the place had quite a reputation. The original owner, William Sianis, apparently cursed the Cubs' owners because of their refusal to allow his billy goat into the stands. So far, the curse has stood strong – the Cubs haven't won a championship since. Despite its fame, the bar is pretty basic in nature, focusing on good beer and, what else, cheeseburgers!

Roof
(Nightlife - Bars)
201 N State St, theWit Hotel, Chicago  60601 • 312-239-9501 • 312-239-9502
Distance: ~0.38 mi *
        Description: MAGNIFICENT MILE. The Roof lives up to its name with impressive views of the Chicago skyline from the 27th floor of theWit Hotel. An outdoor lounge lets patrons soak in the sun on warmer days, while an indoor area (complete with fireplace) offers some respite from the brutal winter winds. The stainless steel and gray accents exude industrial cool, but plush lounge chairs and low tables keep the atmosphere light and enjoyable. Guests can listen to the grand piano or spy on the city below with a telescope.

House of Blues
(Nightlife - Live Music)
329 N Dearborn St, Chicago  60610 • 312-923-2000 • 312-527-2007
Distance: ~0.46 mi *
        Description: RIVER NORTH. Although HOB features live blues every night at 10pm, it's far from being just a blues place. National, international, and local groups of all musical stylings show up to play in the intimate concert hall with great acoustics. The multi-floored complex is decorated in a funky juke joint-meets-the-opera house style that features folk and Outsider art. Numerous opera boxes offer great views, and the Foundation Room (members only) is a luxurious treat.

Miller's Pub
(Nightlife - Pub)
134 S Wabash Ave, Chicago  60603 • 312-263-4988
Distance: ~0.47 mi *
        Description: THE LOOP. Miller's decorates its walls with photos of famous folks who've graced the bar with their presence. The place has been around since 1935, so it has seen its share of foot traffic. And patrons keep coming back to order drinks, watch a game on TV, and fill up from the menu, which includes Italian dishes, seafood, salads, and beef. Time-tested, the baby back ribs and homemade barbecue sauce are legendary.

Distance: ~0.50 mi *
        Description: RIVER NORTH. It's jazz, jazz, jazz at this Hubbard Street entertainment venue. Andy's has live acts playing nightly. So, no matter what day of the week, you get in the mood to hear true Chicago jazz. The menu here is quite extensive and goes beyond the typical bar food offerings. A wide array of groups perform, but most play traditional bebop and swing.

        Description: STREETERVILLE. Timothy O' Toole's is a bustling sort of place that features a number of entertainment options – TV's, pool tables, dartboards, interactive trivia games, video games, and of course, the drink menu that includes microbrews as well as domestic and imported beer both on tap and by the bottle. Keep in mind, this place stays rather busy. In fact, they've poured more than 4 million pints of beer and served more than 150 tons of wings since opening in 1992.

Rockit Bar and Grill

22 W Hubbard St, Chicago  60654 • 312-645-6000
Distance: ~0.53 mi *
        Description: RIVER NORTH. A trendy, high-concept space draws crowds nightly to this happening bar, lounge, and restaurant. The bustling front bar is the place to see and be seen. Sample a specialty cocktail, like the Rockit Root Beer – root beer, Stoli Vanil, and Godiva white chocolate liqueur – while you take in the scene. Looking for something a little more relaxed? Head to the upstairs lounge, where pool tables, couches, and 50-in. plasma TVs can be found. There's plenty of upscale bar food to nibble on too – think Kobe burgers and fries cooked in truffle oil.
