Vintage cocktails & gastropub fare in a chic, antique-accented space
"They have drinks with names like the Victorian, vintage liqueurs, and price tags hovering around $30. It’s the kind of place you take a first date to impress them with your “I just Googled this” knowledge of rare amaro. The intimate space only has a few tables (ideal for quiet conversations under the crystal chandeliers), but they also have group-friendly seating on their sidewalk patio." - adrian kane, john ringor
"One of Chicago’s premier bars for cocktails, Billy Sunday has a vintage vibe in Logan Square. Named for a former White Sox player who also led the temperance movement, the space is stocked with rare spirits and there’s small plates. It’s from Folkart Restaurant Management, the same company whose holdings include Mordecai in Wrigleyville." - Ashok Selvam
"Billy Sunday is a figure central to the temperance movement. Sunday was a former White Sox player who used his platform as a pulpit. There’s great fun in naming a cocktail bar after him, but the team does right by the famed teetotaler with alcohol-free drinks such as the Lupine Lady (lavender and thyme- infused verjus, lime, mint, basil) and the Cassandra Onda (Chinese rhubarb, sage, chinotto, juniper, cane)." - Nylah Iqbal Muhammad
"From November 29 through December 31, head to Tinseltown at Billy Sunday’s Optimist Hall location. Enjoy specialty cocktails like the Yippee Ky-Yay Motherf*cker (a hot, buttered, rum-based drink), Ya Filthy Animal (their take on egg nog), and a Kidnap Sandy Claws (a sugar cookie martini), all priced around $14. Enjoy at a fully decorated bar inside, or stay cozy by the fire pits outside." - Shindy Chen
"Billy Sunday is known for going hard for the holidays. The Tinseltown decor and menu takeover at Optimist Hall is nothing short of bold. On the festooned menu, visitors will reach for the sugar cookie martini, the mulled wine, or the hot buttered rum. Even the mugs are little ceramic Santas. Believe it before you see it, or better yet, go see it to believe it." - Kayleigh Ruller
