5 Bars That Are Like Midwestern Basements

"This Korean listening bar is what we call basement chic—it’s decorated with old radios and a whole lot of wood paneling, an aesthetic worthy of Midwestern Luxe magazine. Fun vinyl is always crackling through the speakers, and they have excellent snacks and drinks, like a bingsu cocktail that tastes like Fruity Pebbles. Just know that the rules of “the comfy couch” apply—Parachute HiFi is a first come, first serve spot. Arrive early in the night to grab a place to hang." - nick allen
