The details
Every Friday evening we open bottles we're excited about and pour them for anyone who walks in. No ticket. No reservation. No minimum purchase. Just show up between 5 and 8, try something new, and talk to us about it if you want.
What to Expect
We usually have two to four bottles open on any given Friday — typically a mix of whatever's new, whatever we've been obsessing over, and sometimes a producer or importer rep who wants to talk through their range. The selections rotate every week.
It's genuinely casual. Bring a friend. Stay for one pour or stay for three. We're not running a ticketed event — we're just opening good bottles and sharing them the way we'd do it at home.
Where to Find Us
We're at 1128 W Armitage Ave in Lincoln Park, between N Clifton and N Seminary. Easy street parking on Armitage and the side streets. A short walk from the Armitage Brown Line stop. We're the shop with the green awning.
Serving neighbors from Lincoln Park, Old Town, Bucktown, Lakeview, and everywhere else in Chicago worth drinking in.
