CHICAGO: Nightclubs (North Side Clubs)
The ONLY way you'll ever be able to enjoy ALL the jazz, blues and dance clubs Chicago has to offer, is to LIVE here.  Chicago sounds could EASILY be the best in the country. But you'll just have to find out for yourself. Start with an incredible dinner and you'll have an evening to remember!
Our Top Pick The Underground Wonderbar | 10 E. Walton | (312) 266-7761 Established in 1989, this tiny venue is open 365 days a year. Live music is offered nightly to an incredibly eclectic group of patrons. Although, jazz and blues are the main focus, acoustic guitar and piano music are often featured, along with music ranging from Joplin, to Rap, to Marley, to Sinatra. Music begins at 8PM and continues to 4AM (5AM on Saturdays). Ordering or bringing in carryout food is acceptable. Truly a classic.
