Cocktail bar · Wicker Park

@infatuation

"Named after composer and pianist Clara Schumann, and featuring drinks like the Haydn’s Head or E Major (a tasty pistachio-tinged espresso martini), this Wicker Park bar and venue has plenty of musical nods for classicalheads. While you can definitely stop by to hear chamber ensembles play Top 40s hits of the 1800s, Clara also highlights jazz combos, funk bands, and the occasional tap dancer. You can find the bar and some comfy booths at the back, but grab a table at the front performance area if you want to watch somebody shred Mozart up close." - john ringor, nick allen
