Hey all,

Looking for recommendations for bars/nights in Chicago that are good for finding girls in the 21-30 range?

Ideally, bars not loud clubs.

Thanks.

That narrows it down to about 75% of the thousands of bars in the city, you will have to be more specific.

I haven't been out looking for girls in Chicago in a while...but a few years ago, Old Town Pour House and Benchmark served me well. They're right by each other.

Chicago is largely sliced into various neighborhoods. Each neighborhood varies quite a bit & typically has a cluster of bars and/or clubs within its borders. Since you mentioned that you'd rather avoid large nightclubs, I'd probably avoid the very clubby River North area & most likely avoid the Rush & Division (Gold Coast area) as well. These areas can get pretty bridge & tunnel feeling (to borrow an NYC term) & very clubby / see & be seen upscale loungey.

If you like yuppie chicks, stick to neighborhoods like Lakeview, Lincoln Park and Old Town like DLV Master mentioned.

If you like to try getting with hipsters or bohemian type chicks you might want to venture further northwest into Bucktown, Wicker Park or Logan Square.

Surprised nobody mentioned Wrigleyville. There's bars for 2 blocks.

Yeah that's true. Wrigleyville is full of drunk pussy in the summer. It's technically part of northern "Lakeview". A significant % of the chicks that come thru the area are basically suburbanite Cubs fans coming thru & getting sloshed.

N. Wells St. in Old Town fits the bill. Mostly WASPy crowd if that's your thing. Lakeview is similar, especially after Cubs games, although some spots may be a bit louder and more crowded.

Here are top clubs/bars.

1. Underground
- most exclusive, dress well, behave well, harder to get into
2. Paris Studio
- second best in town, very exclusive.
3. The Mid
- top club, but not the best
4. Soundbar
- both hiphop & electro playing on separate floors
- a lot of Asians, so if you are into Asians, this is your spot.
5. Social 25.
- a bit more chill, but still clubby enough.
- older crowd.

Personally, I am into Asian chicks, so Soundbar was my spot...

No one goes to wrigleyville because it’s full of dudes and drunken idiots and ghetto mfers. The current scene is in Logan Square and Wicker Park. If you really want to game, head to the neighborhood festivals.

If you want latinas, PM me. I know a couple spots.
Nacional27 is so-so. Hit or miss with the crowd.

Everyone loves Wicker Park but while the vibe was good when I went with my friend on a warm Friday night a couple months ago, the quality and quantity of women was significantly worse than River North. I think we saw two above-average looking girls and we checked out Damen and Milwaukee.

Taste of river north is this weekend and Colombia festival as well. There will be moist bitches everywhere

Well it goes without saying that the ritziest ZIP codes within the city of Chicago are probably within the boundaries of River North, the Gold Coast, Lincoln Park, and maybe Old Town. Note that these areas are mostly close to the lakeshore & north of the downtown Loop. Typically in terms of sheer looks, the hottest, most hypergamous chicks will be in these neighborhoods.

The drawback is that sometimes the cultural offerings within these areas can be a little bit blander. The funkier Brooklyn vibes tend to be further northwest (Wicker Park / Bucktown, Logan Square, etc.) as has been mentioned previously.

I've been to Chicago briefly for work and from what I could tell the west loop area at night seemed to have the highest concentration of talent. Not sure how it is for gaming.

Agree with this. The truth is that River North is the best for high volumes of hot girls. Tastes vary with the other neighborhoods as many guys have bias towards venue type, girl type etc. but River North is the undisputed highest concentration of girls.

I also like old town/LP. LP crowd is a lot of young students, old town has the more mid 20s yuppie girls. Nice thing about OT is that girls still get dressed up to go out, but you don't have any of the club entrance shit to deal with, and the venues are all very conversational.

Hard to make generalizations about the girls other than demographics, your mileage will vary based on your personality and game. In no neighborhood are ALL the girls stuck up or bitchy or hot, you can find great girls everywhere. All in your attitude

Just my $.02 cheers!

I agree. River North seems to have a lil something for everyone, although a night out there can get quite expensive. It's probably the closest feeling you get to being in NYC.
