About this place Charlie's Chicago

Charlie's is the country-western gay bar of Chicago's Northalsted (Boystown) strip, part of a small chain that also runs Charlie's in Denver and Phoenix. The draw is the dance floor: line dancing and two-step, with regulars who know the routines dancing next to people who are trying it for the first time. The crowd is mostly gay men, with plenty of lesbians and friends mixed in. It opens at 4pm on weekdays and 2pm at weekends, and closes at 2am, or 3am on Saturdays. Drinks sit in the mid price range. It is quiet in the late afternoon and busier from about 9pm, and the music tends to move away from country as the night goes on.

Love all the updates the bar has made. I moved out of Chicago a few years ago. I visited them this month on a return trip home. Can't say how impressed I was. The location and the size of the bar make so much more sense than the old. Not to mention the layout of the entire space. Hats off to the person who designed this. They truly utalized the space in a way that is both aesthetically appealing, and productive for sales and fun.
