"Cara Cara Club is the latest tenant inside a space neighboring James Beard winner Lula Cafe in Logan Square. The bar’s owners have brought in the team from Nine Bar, the smash-hit in Chinatown, and they’re trying something radically different. Find spritzes, espresso martinis, and more." - Ashok Selvam

"The owners of Nine Bar in Chinatown have created a second tavern in tandem with the owners of Ludlow Liquors which brings a carefree attitude and delicious cocktails to Logan Square. Look for a strong lineup of classic cocktails and snacks like conservas. It’s a comfy space situated on one of the neighborhood’s brightest corners." - Ashok Selvam

"Cara Cara Club is a bright and breezy cocktail bar that channels the effortless ease of the Italian Coast. It features amari and vermouths with tropical flavors and is a departure from Lily Wang and Joe Briglio’s first bar, Nine Bar. The bar has a sunny corner space, vintage-style paintings, and a music soundtrack focusing on Italo disco, French house, and Neapolitan funk. The menu includes clarified cocktails and mix-and-match highballs with a coastal European theme. Snacks like conservas, cheese, and cured meats are available, with plans to expand the food menu." - Naomi Waxman

Do NOT sleep on the martinis. Absolutely killer.

We came in a few weeks ago, and loved everything about this place. The drinks were incredible (I loved the fortune teller and 24 hours in Singapore, and my partner said it was his favorite espresso martini he’s had). I haven’t had the food yet, but have heard amazing things about the meat and cheese selection so definitely will be back soon to try out more things on the menu!

I’ve lived in the neighborhood for 5 years now and this is the best addition yet. Incredible beverage menu and the food is just as delicious. Owners are super solid. Support good people and check this spot out!

Exceptional drinks, ambiance, and casual but elevated service. Loved the amaro drinks and the 3-shot flight (how can you not?). Definitely coming back!!

New bar located in the heart of Logan Square, right next to Lula Cafe. We went in for a soft opening, and it was a fantastic time. The Fortune Teller (green drink) smelled like a Vietnamese dessert with the pandan fused into the drink. Highly recommend. Aesthetically feels like you’re in a small coastal city somewhere in Italy

Im very grateful. We will be back to eat more of your delicious snacks and have more drinks with you. 12/10!!!

Another incredibly uninspired cocktail bar. Very mid and very expensive. They're charging River North Prices in Logan. Going to need a better concept to survive at that location. I'll be surprised if they last a year.

A great addition to the neighborhood with beautifully made drinks, great vibes and a really friendly staff! Easily the best espresso martini I’ve ever had!

Woah, this place is fun. A perfect date night spot if you want something up beat! The vibes feel beachy and coastal. But, not palm tree beachy. No, it's yacht clubs and aperol spritz beachy. Like you're on the italian coast living the life of an heir to a billionaire. Elegant, effortless, smooth. Oh, and my drink was much of the same. I went with the canary islands. Nothing like mixing tequila with coastal vibes. A boozy concoction with italicus and mango. So, it had the fruity notes with the herbal, slightly bitter notes of italicus. A really solid drink. The bar tenders were slinging and I loved it. They were nice and grinding away. An amazing spot all around!

Food: we did not eat here, however, we did order one round of cocktails. My friend ended up ordering an old fashioned and I ordered a mocktail. The mocktail was great! I love that this bar had an option for mocktails. It was perfect mix of sweet and sour. 10/10 Service: all the bartenders were very attentive. We were greeted quickly when we sat at the bar. When a bartender took our order, another was pouring us waters (we didn't order waters but it was good to have some on hand). 10/10 Ambiance: the bar was small, but cute inside. We came around 6:30 so there was enough sitting for two people pretty quickly because we just walked in. There wasn't a hostess but it wasn't too difficult to find seating. The music wasn't too loud so it was easy to hear my friend. 10/10 Overall: 30/30 - would go here again for a cocktail or mocktail again.

This 60s inspired discotheque bar with an emphasis on Amaro quickly became one of our favorite spots. Amari are a broad class of Italian liqueur centered around bitter and earthy notes, balanced with sweeteners and diluted to an easy drinking ABV. This place was incredible and a perfect balance between crafted cocktails and fun fancy vibes Negroni bianco: 5/5 a perfect classic cocktail. Not too sweet, not too bitter with a lovely finish of lemon oil Fortune teller: 5/5: we are obsessed with clarified cocktails in this one did not disappoint. Using coconut milk to clarify, gives it a deliciously, sweet and tropical base that blends perfectly with pandan and sumac

We had wonderful drinks here before dinner. A great spot to catch y up over delicious cocktails. I had the Canary Islands which I was afraid would be too sweet but it was amazing!

Happy to see that Big Boys is replaced with something similarly cool. Very good cocktails here and a knowledgeable staff that could walk you through the creation of their cocktails. It's a laidback bar, not too loud and not dark at all. Very much suiting for an early afternoon quick drink. Welcome to Logan Square.

The espresso martini, decor, and welcoming atmosphere is enough to make me want to come back to Cara Cara Club. My husband and I stopped by around 5:30pm on a Friday night. There was a good crowd there during most of the time we were there, but there still were available seats. I had passed by the night before after 9:30pm on a Thursday night and there were many people standing, so I would imagine the place gets busier as the night goes on. I have tried many espresso martinis around the city and have my favorites, but the dalgona foam on top really helps this one stand out. I also tried the black manhattan and was a big fan of it as well. I will be keeping Cara Cara on my rotation of Logan Square bars and look forward to inviting more friends to join me in the future.

Cara cara gives a great face! The menu consists of small bites and great drinks. The Negroni was on point! The manhattan was smokey like a forest fire. The crew is friendly and can offer great suggestions. This is quite the looker

Met some friends here on at 6pm on a Monday night for cocktails before heading off for dinner around the corner. We were greeted by a bouncer who checked our identification before allowing us entry. Perhaps it's a necessity to have someone like that watching the door at a Logan Square bar, but it seemed a little off-putting. Beside our group of six, there were a half-dozen other customers sitting around the L-shaped bar. The bar area is beautiful and well-designed. The only detail in the room that seemed off-note were the tiny panel curtains that were visually overwhelmed by the large floor-to-ceiling windows. The bartender was attentive and friendly. My husband ordered a South of the Border that he said was very good. I was not drinking, so I ordered a non-alcoholic Prickly Pear Swizzle. It was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was expertly prepared and beautifully presented with a large sprig of mint. Our friends arrived earlier, so they already had their cocktails, and they seemed to be pleased with what they had ordered. We did not try any food, but the menu looks good. Cara Cara is probably a lot busier on Friday night and weekends, but it is a great place to hang or have a cocktail before heading off to dinner.

This place is awesome, I highly recommend stopping in for a few apps and cocktails. Staff is friendly and space is very cute (some outdoor seating as well).

We were disappointed after seeing such good reviews. My husband had the 24hrs in Singapore (just tasted like fruit juice with LOTS of extra ice) and I had the Fortune Teller, which tasted like it wanted to be complex, but it was just a mish mosh of icky flavors. Both drinks cost $15/each. We actually came for tapas since we heard it was a tapas bar, and we were also disappointed in the choices. Most offerings were with toast, which tasted great, but there was no variety for people that want to stay away from bread. ‍ The conservas were all unavailable, which left the two small plate orders-olives and bottarga toast and then the charcuterie. The olives weren't amazing, just olives with lemon zest. The bottarga toast had a nice crème fraiche on it with - also - a lot of lemon zest. See a trend? Finally, the charcuterie. We both got nice plates with more bread and our choice of cheese and meat and this was probably the only thing we liked. The mustard and jam was yummy and the plate came with caper and peppers which were a delicious accoutrement. Service came from the counter and they were going through a shift change, so there was some confusion as to how we get our food. The ambiance is kind of cool, but it was kind of dirty inside. My take: if you want to call yourselves a small plate establishment, get a little more diversity, and certainly if you want to be known for good cocktails, you've got to make them well.

Loved, loved the vibe! Went on Saturday night and they had amazing cocktails and music. There was a diverse crowd of all ages, making it a great bar for all positive vibrating people. They had Noshaluv as the DJ and she kept us there all night. I've heard her in other places and she has a very diverse range of music which I love. The music was not too loud so you could hold a conversation, or enjoy the great music and dance. Did I mention the cocktails? Yum! I'll be back.

The best place. An amazing addition to the neighborhood and fits the space perfectly. It's decorated beautifully and their menu is incredible. The cocktails are out of this world!! There's something for everyone and the vibe is just feel-good. The owners, bartenders and everyone else working there are just good people. You won't be disappointed I promise!
