"In an area rife with restaurants, this standalone French-inspired bar from veteran Chicago bartender Peter Vestinos (Sepia, The Betty, Sparrow) is a welcome addition. Location aside, Bisous’s charming interior design and expertly made cocktails are the reason you are here. Stop by at happy hour, 4 to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, for $10 glasses of wine and select cocktails, as well as $8 beer and $7 cider. The truffle parmesan popcorn is on the house." - Lisa Shames
"Chicagoans can get a feel for Paris along Fulton Market with Bisous. They won’t hurry you along after pouring you a luxury cocktail. The beautifully designed space begs drinkers to linger, providing an experience for connoisseurs of fine spirits. This is the best place for a martini in the area, with a vast arsenal of options. Highball lovers will also find plenty to drink." - Ashok Selvam
"1960s Parisian vibes provide the backbone for this newish cocktail bar in Fulton Market from Footman Hospitality, the local group behind spots like Bangers & Lace and Emporium Arcade Bar. A moody, low-lit space devoted almost entirely to drinks, it specializes in popular cocktails from the era, like martinis, highballs, and aromatized wines. There’s also a mostly French wine list (it’s heavy on sparklers and Champagne) and a solid lineup of natural wines." - Ashok Selvam
"A Parisian-inspired Fulton Market bar whose staff will represent the beverage industry at the fundraiser, bringing cocktail and bar expertise to the event." - Serena Maria Daniels
"This is one of the most gorgeous bars in the city, and proof that Fulton Market and West Loop shouldn’t be just for chains and giant companies. Parisian-inspired Bisous is just a sultry space great for a date. The formidable cocktail list will also help whisk customers away." - Ashok Selvam
