"Regardless of the liquor or bitters, perhaps the best ingredient for the optimal cocktail experience is live music. And with a robust drink menu of 52 cocktails, along with regularly scheduled acts, Lazy Bird in the West Loop makes a solid argument for this. This dimly lit, 1940s-meets-modernist bar is hidden in the basement of the Hoxton, and has plenty of soft couches and chairs that you wish existed in your apartment. Performances range from solo jazz piano to more upbeat DJ sets so check their performance calendar first." - adrian kane, john ringor
