Unlike most of the nation, happy hour is a recent phenomenon in the city of Chicago. Drink specials were not allowed until 2015 and after the pandemic happy hour has spread to tempt people back into indoor spaces. But one of the best ways to enjoy drinks with your favorite people is to rent a happy hour space instead.
You have the option of choosing themed spaces like experiential
theaters with artistic installations and pop culture themes. Or you can choose one of dozens of rooftop bars in Chicago, where guests can view the iconic skyline of the city while enjoying drinks and company. Rented happy hour spaces mean you aren't limited to the drinks, times, or schedule of a particular venue. Karaoke night can be every happy hour if you wish!
Every neighborhood has a spot to grab a drink and relax with friends. Chicago is also full of repurposed warehouses, lofts, and
rooftop bars for those looking to host their own happy hour.
