Proceed only if you're into seedy dive bars. Frank and Mary are the brother-sister duo who have owned this bar for 40+ years. You can also get HUGE lunches on the weekdays alongside city workers.

In a city where cocktails are catching on like wildfire (which means mediocre offerings in many spots) this is one of the great spots for a mixed drink—I mean it.

Neighborhoods
Ah, Wicker Park. That's where they shot High Fidelity. And there was that Wicker Park movie with Josh Hartnett. Wait, who's Josh Hartnett again? Point is, that was years ago. Over the last decade and a half, the enclave of Wicker Park and Bucktown, centered around the six corners of Milwaukee, North and Damen Avenues, has gone from being the first "Brooklyn" of Chicago to being the new Lincoln Park. Gentrification has transformed Wicker Park. Now there might be more pet stores and gyms than dive bars. While the cool has migrated a bit northwest to Logan Square, Wicker Park and Bucktown remain a vibrant hub of culture and commerce in Chicago, riddled with boutiques, restaurants, cocktail bars, concerts venues and condos.
