Simone's

"Over in Pilsen, Simone's unique space packs the crowds in on the weekends with DJs, a satisfying brunch menu, a fireplace, and more." - Samantha Nelson, Ashok Selvam, Naomi Waxman

"Simone’s is a quirky bar in the heart of Pilsen. The interior is made with reclaimed materials, including the bar that’s made from a bowling lane. There’s a variety of pub grub to go along with beer or a cocktail, whichever wets your whistle." - Eater Staff

"Simone’s is another bar located near the proposed Headquarters Beercade site in Pilsen. A resident has raised concerns about intoxicated patrons from Simone’s leaving litter and causing disturbances in the neighborhood." - Naomi Waxman

"Quirky Pilsen bar Simone’s is offering to-go verisons of its much-loved micheladas and house cocktails like the “Violent Delights” (Maker’s Mark, Tattersall Sour Cherry Liquer, simple syrup, bitters). Customers can call the bar to place an order or just stop in." - Naomi Waxman

"Nothing if not eclectic. The bar, which is broken up into a number of different spaces, is built from reclaimed materials including a bowling alley lane, high school chemistry lab tables, and old pinball machines. Cocktails are clever and boozy, like a punch of Scofflaw's Old Tom Gin and Aperol or a white Manhattan made with George Dickel's unaged whiskey. They've also got a rotation of well-known craft brews from the likes of Founders, Lagunitas, Lost Abbey, and Stone. A reliable neighborhood joint in the Pilsen area that's seeing more and more visitors." - Brad Japhe
