Rose's Lounge: User Reviews

Roses is one of the best dives in Chicago. Rose actually works the bar, shes probably in her late 60's. The place very few matching chairs, couches, a pool table, an old school jukebox and cheap beer. Bottom line, just got a great vibe from this place.

My boyfriend and I were strolling along Lincoln Avenue the other night and found this bar. We were supposed to meet some friends later so we were just going to have a beer. We ended up staying all night!!! The atmosphere was great and free from all the jerks that usually go to bars around there. Clarence and I will be back for sure. However the bouncer was kind of rude when he saw two guys toghther, but whateve we had fun....

Rose's was a late night find that I can't wait to go back to. Rose was really sweet and the decor was eclectic much like the crowd there. A great escape from the typical Lincoln Park bar.

Overall rating:

Rose's is the crème della crème of Chicago's drinking hole community. A delicious oddity, in that it is where the bustling metropolis' elite high society co-mingles with the slow-witted proletariat masses to discuss current world events from respective view points. The poorly lit atmosphere whisks one gently away into a golden age of grace, elegance, and shivery which otherwise is only existent in sentimental rosy memories. Parking was ample.

This retro, eastern-european, hole in the wall bar is a great place to get away from society. Get your hand out of your pocket and enjoy authentic $1 warm beers, GNR on jukebox, and some good ole fashion drinking. Soon you'll be acclimated to life void of sunlight and fortified in your plastic chair at Rose's.

Overall rating:

Roses consists of 1 dollar beers, a pool table, a 45's jukebox, and the kindest family bartenders in Chicago. If theres a better tavern in Chicago for spending a drunken evening, I havent found it. Be ready to hear " The Gambler" about 3 times an hour on the jukebox.

This is my favorite bar in Chicago. How can you beat $1 drafts and still hold a conversation with the person(s) next to you. Good times.
