Queen Mary Tavern

I was so excited to come here to celebrate my 24th with dollar oysters. And though the oysters did disappoint, the service did not :) Our waiter made sure we had an incredibly intimate dining experience. He did not check up on us once. I love flirting and so did our server. He was definitely playing hard to get. It was incredibly hard to get his attention. Understandably so, it was super busy. So busy, that when we did catch him, he had one foot out the door the entire exchange. His urgency to leave made our time together all the more thrilling and gave me this really unique feeling—the feeling that I did not belong there. This was confirmed when we were approached after paying by someone else who worked there, who reminded us that we were young and that at an “adult establishment” like this, you tip the quality of the service you received. Never in my life have I felt so incredibly seen. Not only did he recognize that I am young, but that I did in fact tip the quality of the service I received. Overall, dining here was a once in a lifetime experience. I will certainly never come here again in my lifetime. The treatment I received for being young was definitely special, and I urge other young folks to come here and experience it as well.

Great bar, great bartenders, great small bites if you like fish. If you're not sure what to get the daily grog has always been amazing! The Atmosphere is amazing it is a very well done period themed bar that feels authentic.

I love the cocktails at this place, and all the sexual tension between the bartenders. Great place for local gossip and drama! Ask for Jacob and you might the the “in” on some of these details.

Such a fun happy hour on Mondays! $7 martinis and $1 oysters. You really need to get there right at 5 as it fills up fast. We also got some wine, cheeses,...

This spot is one of the few places that does $1 oysters and I appreciate that GREATLY. However, there are many restrictions to this. 1) Oysters often sell...

Monday Oyster happy hour was amazing. Their $1 shucks were plump and delicious and were cleaned expertly. Add a $7 martini and you have a wonderful snack or starter to a nice meal. The place is small but they know how to make the most of it. Great service as well.

This is a limited review because I've only had one drink here -- their Old Fashioned. But it's the best one I've had in Chicago. So good I've had it at least 10 times now.

Get here at 5p on the dot to ensure a seat, it's well worth it. The dollar oysters are heavenly, only one order at a time so be prepared to be there a while...

Really good cocktails. So good that I forgot to take pictures. Go drink.

My favorite cocktail spot in Chicago. The Penicillin is my go to, but the bartenders are beyond talented and are sure to make you a delicious cocktail...
