Lounges in Chicago

Tonight's not the night for raucous dives, stuffy restaurants or family-friendly fun. Tonight's for grabbing a couple of cocktails, listening to some hip background music and hanging with friends—or making some new ones. Chicago is ripe with chic chill-out spots; settle into a comfortable couch at the Signature Lounge and take in the spectacular view, or chat by candlelight in the French Colonial style ambiance of Le Colonial. Enjoy the company of Chicago's best dressed and most relaxed.
