Happy Village sale and $3 million renovation inches closer as Out to Lunch is ready to buy the Ukrainian Village dive bar known for ping pong - Eater Chicago

"The Happy Village, a long-standing dive bar in East Village, is set to be converted into a gastropub-style venue under new ownership. The bar, known for its shot-and-beer service, private patio, and ping pong game room, will undergo a $3 million renovation led by Out to Lunch Hospitality. The transformation aims to keep the bar's atmosphere but includes significant changes like demolishing the game room. The building's sale is pending approval from the community and local alderman." - Ashok Selvam
