Reviews
This awesome hidden bar gem is perfect for those that want low-key, not crowded, and great service. Plus close to all the nightlife to stop by before/afterwards.
The Berkshire offers a really nice ambience and intimate setting with dim lighting (or they can make it a bit brighter if needed).
Bartender was really consistently checking on us and our needs.
This bar lounge is great for groups and you can choose to stay for one hour or even more.
Drinks are premium drinks, cocktails balance of herbs and either fruity or smokey. Also, offer premium old fashioned drinks.
We didn't try the food, but they offer interesting light appetizers that you do not find in typical bars.
Need reservation. Uber or walk to this spot on holiday or weekend. Close to restaurants.
Probably some of the best cocktails I’ve ever had. The barman is also capable of making something on the spot depending on your preferences. The bar is not exactly hidden so not what you expects from a speakeasy but the place looks great.
My boyfriend and I stayed at the attached ACME Hotel (which we thought was great also) while visiting Chicago for our first times in November. The Berkshire Bar and adjacent West Town Bakery were near our lobby, so we stopped in for a few late-night drinks one of the nights we were there. I had a friend actually meet up with me at our hotel one night, so her and I had some drinks together as well. The service was great (but we were seated at the bar so that makes it easy.) Not a lot of seating up at the bar, but there are some small tables nearby and standing room as well. It's dimly lit which gives it a nice, mellow ambiance. Drink prices were average for the area (which we were surprised to discover was quite a bit higher than what we pay here in the Bay Area, CA). Miller High Life ($6), Corazon Blanco shots ($7) and a grapefruit White Claw ($8). Enjoyed the visit to Chicago and when we go back, if we stay in the same neighborhood, we'll definitely pop in here again.
One of the top 3 cocktail bars in the entire city. If you have 4+ you should make a reservation regardless of what time you come because it's very small and fills up quickly.
The bartenders will make you whatever you like, so the menu is extensive but don't be afraid to give them a liquor you like and some ingredients and let them go to town.
This is a great date night spot if you want to impress someone before you go home 😜
Beautiful venue and socks atmosphere but The fact that JOHN was the only person on the floor on a Saturday night is ridiculous. Completely tainted my experience. I walked up to the bar and immediately was able to order a drink but sat almost 20 minutes waiting on the drink after ordering with JOHN. He was clearly completely swamped and busy. Meanwhile, the wonderful host (don’t know her name) was checking on us every second. She obviously noticed that our service was lacking.
Let me just say, I’m not a huge cocktail drinker because oftentimes I feel that I get a drink that is two parts rubbing alcohol and one part pure high fructose corn sugar syrup. …
One of my fave places in the city for great cocktails and an amazing vibe.
Great place for drinks and small appetizers. I only had drinks but it was strong
