The Best of NileGuide
- Following the latest trend may not be your style, you like a little more originality in your scene. In Chicago there are plenty of hip clubs that are not just about the seen-and-be-seen, they bring something new. These clubs do it up right from the no-frills tavern, The Hideout, where you will find dancers boppin' to the best folk/country bands in the city, to the purposely hard to find, Violet Hour, located in the gritty Wicker Park, marked only by colorful murals to keep its unique retro vibe, and incredible drinks a Chicago best kept secret. One night out at these clubs and any traveler will quickly feel part of a scene.
