There are three bars: Baja Beach Club, Dicks Last Resort, and one other generic sports bar. Baja is definitely out! Dicks is a lot of fun, but it is too loud for anyone to talk. The sports bar does have some possibility. They also have outside seating. There is one other bar in the Habitat Apartment Buildings on McClurg. (Never Been in it, so I don't know what they have to offer.) There are other bars nearby, and I am planning a trip to spot one out. Other locations: Rush and Division. (House of Beers), PJ Clarkes are two of the better spots. This is about a mile from the hotels, short cab, long walk. The problem with Chicago, is that it is a BIG City. I mean like Wrigley Ville is considered part of Chicago but it is about 5-6 miles north of the loop. So please bear with me on this one. -Mikey
