With a wide variety of beers and veggie-friendly fare, this artsy Wicker Park lounge has something for everyone. Snag a seat outdoors or mingle in the cozy, eclectic dining room with exposed brick and lots of local art (all for sale). Snack on a tasty and slightly upscale menu – think crab cakes, homemade macaroni and cheese, teriyaki steak skewers, and a trio of hummus and pita. A relaxed atmosphere with a refined touch, Swig is ideal for both catching the game and sharing a romantic date.
