"Logan Square has a lot of dark bars and sports bars. But if you want something different in the neighborhood, you should know about Young American. This small spot has plenty of windows, neon lights, and is even bright enough inside to keep some plants alive. The food and drink menu includes ingredients like leek ash, activated charcoal, and CBD - a lot of trends from two years ago. But the cocktails are great, and they’ve got some tasty dishes like Goth Bread (served with a garlicky “smudge butter,” whatever that means) and small plates like pickled okra with popcorn grits." - adrian kane
