This popular gastropub is located directly across from Millennium Park. Built in 1889-1890 by Holabird & Roche for millinery firms, it has a super cool The Shining vibe (sans the crazy twins and the busted door). From 5-10pm, the 1930s vintage-industrial space is filled with Looponites drinking their daily stresses away. Take note: the menu is delicious if you want a snack to absorb the alcohol, but you’ll feel it right in the wallet. Hours: Mon-Fri 11am-2am; Sat 10am-3am; Sun 10am-12am

If you ever frequent Bin 36 for happy hour, you know that it’s best enjoyed with a long-term commitment. There’s simply too much to indulge in. The menu may be small, but your taste buds will be on overdrive when trying to choose between the Nicoise Salad and the Pan Seared Atlantic Salmon. Tell the knowledgeable wait staff what you like and they’ll do the rest, including finding the perfect wine to go with your happy hour food order. And if you’re really having trouble deciding…just get the delicious Prosciutto and Fig Salad and call it a day. Hours: Mon-Thu 6:30am-11pm; Fri-Sat 7am-2am; Sun 7am-10pm

The Tavern is a great spot just a few blocks from Michigan Avenue to grab an after dinner drink with friends. If one drink turns in to a few and you need something to eat, they also have an impressive menu. Not surprising since the Tavern restaurant is so good and right upstairs. Did we mention it draws a pretty good looking crowd? It does.
