Richard’s BarBAR

( MAP GOOGLE MAP ; %312-733-2251; 491 N Milwaukee Ave; h7am-2am Mon-Fri, 9am-3am Sat, noon-2am Sun; mBlue Line to Grand)

Richard's is a timeless dive complete with lingering cigarette-smoke aroma. The bar – with its tall, humming refrigerated coolers for to-go orders and a strange mix of Rat Pack and Saturday Night Fever on the jukebox – feels like something out of a Jim Jarmusch movie. The only food option is hard-boiled eggs served in a shot glass. Cash only.

Beauty BarCLUB

( MAP GOOGLE MAP ; %312-226-8828; www.thebeautybar.com; 1444 W Chicago Ave; h7pm-2am Sun-Fri, to 3am Sat; mBlue Line to Chicago)

The interior is an imported and restored late-1960s beauty salon from New Jersey. ‘Martinis and manicures’ are the shtick, and you can get the latter anytime for $10 (Sunday through Thursday) or $15 (Friday and Saturday). Genre-spanning DJs spin nightly. If the Beauty Bar sounds familiar, it’s because it’s part of a chain with outposts in several US cities.
