2024 Best Bars in the United States

"Wicker Park’s original craft cocktail destination is still going strong after more than 15 years in the spotlight. Enter the polished interior through unmarked curtains and savor the Prohibition-era vibes. The Violet Hour's signature offerings are divided between shaken, stirred, and punch sections of the menu. The Fernet and rum-based Goof Juice is a favorite from the Shaken section; Bbwatdhy is a standout Stirred selection, made with dry sherry and a Nill-wafer infused bourbon." - Brad Japhe
