The story of Sidetrack Chicago is an American tale. It all started in 1982 when it was a one room bar and beer cases were used for seating. As consumers grew, it allowed for expansion into more rooms. The bar had its own coming out when, in 1994, they debuted their outdoor sign and a window to open the space. Today, it has many bars within including a courtyard, glass bar, Cherry Lounge, upper deck bar. The spaces can hold up to 1000 people. And its gorgeous! My favorite is when they have Showtune Mondays. When in Chicago Go Go Go, enough said!
