Smart Bar - Chicago
You won't find anything "old school" about this legendary dance club that's been around since the early 1980s as it keeps contempo with some of the world's best deejays.

Went there once. Low lights and more emphasis on music. The music was great! House/deep house genre. Definitely worth a go to dance solo without anyone...
I had the most amazing experience on my 24th birthday at this bar. So I decided on my 29th birthday I would drive 10 hours to relive the experience. I was denied access because I didn't have my vaccination card. My state doesn't allow online verification because they are to country to get with the times. Absolutely pitiful. I wish I was from a big enough city to allow an online copy.
Was a regular patron here for years, spent many weekends and dollars here, sadly things have gone in the wrong direction, much like the rest of Chicago. Definitely not inclusive to the non-superficial, also still requiring you to show your papers! Unbelievable.
Big shout out to security for doing their job and making women feel safe. I was out with my friends, and this guy wouldn't leave me alone all night. Despite me saying I'm not interested, and furthermore am married. He went as far as trying to get information about me from my friends and following me into the bathroom, it was truly terrifying. Finally, I called security on him and they kicked him out no questions asked. Even though his group of 'bros' tried to make it seem like I was too drunk and making it all up - that it couldn't possibly be him. I appreciate security believing me.
This place books a nice variety of electronic music. The last shows I've seen were Luke Vibert and Ben UFO. I'm always checking the schedule.
