10 Great Speakeasies and Hidden Bars In Chicago - Chicago - The Infatuation
"Inside Pilsen Yards you’ll find lots of group dinners and a quizzical neon sign above a door that says “The Alderman.” And while that door doesn’t lead to a government official that’ll hear all of your complaints about street parking, it does lead to an excellent cocktail bar. The interior is dark and intimate with only 16 seats, and though you definitely can waltz on in, we recommend placing a reservation. All of the drinks here are fantastic, with a rotating selection of cocktails like the slightly savory Sichuan Panda made with baijiu, sesame oil, and peppercorn, or the Blind Luck with gin and chai vermouth." - john ringor, veda kilaru
