Betty's Blue Star Lounge - West Town - Chicago, IL 60622 | Metromix Chicago

Betty's Blue Star Lounge



Neighborhood: West Town
1600 W. Grand Ave.

Chicago, IL 60622
312-243-1699

During evening hours, this spacious dwelling offers a low-key vibe within its lounge-like environs. However, at the stroke of the bewitching hour, Betty's Blue Star Lounge morphs into a raucous, after-hours scene. Blue neon befittingly highlights the tavern, which also features clamshell-shaped booths and overstuffed sofas. Complete with a pool table, the interior's exposed brick walls, hardwood floors and elongated bar adhere to typical Chicagoan watering holes. However, this haunt is also equipped with a dance floor and impressive sound system, as DJs and live bands provide the music.
