"Way Out is a dark and brooding bar—meet a first date here and you might leave not knowing exactly what they look like. Good thing you don’t need to see the loaded waffle fries and crawfish rangoon to know that’s exactly what you want to eat after a few drinks. Maybe that drink is the Bitter Baby, which is basically a boozy pink lemonade, or a $5 mojito shot. With large turquoise booths and plenty of bar stools, as well as extraterrestrial art, it’s a fun place to hang out for a little longer than you planned. And just when you’re ready to leave, you’ll remember there’s a pool table and jukebox in the back. It’s going to be a long night." - sarah freeman, john ringor
"After only being open for delivery, this new bar in Logan Square is finally open for indoor service. Along with cocktails, this place has bar food like fried cheese curds, wings, and pizza potstickers. You can see the full menu on their website." - adrian kane
"On March 7 I can attend Undertow II at Way Out, where Motorshucker will return with an elaborate raw bar of oysters, clams, and crab claws, plus a doubles pool tournament, DJ set, and late-night music—the event runs from 5 p.m. to 2 a.m." - Naomi Waxman
"A holiday edition of a burlesque series offers a playful, naughty variety show themed around Christmas, Hanukkah and other winter festivities. Producer-performer Lilly Rascal curates acts that lean into seasonal kitsch and circus-style performance, including Slightly Spitfire’s Elf on the Shelf routine and a ‘tassel kitten’ called Saint Pegapuss — costumed as the Grinch and tasked with retrieving props and costume pieces after each act. The show is free to attend, though patrons are encouraged to bring cash to tip performers." - Naomi Waxman
"A motorbike-delivered seafood pop-up promising a full oyster bar experience plus ocean-forward plates like fish tacos and shrimp tostadas, accompanied by cocktails, beer, and wine in a late-night neighborhood bar setting." - Naomi Waxman
