About this place Roscoe's

On West Roscoe Street, this gay bar and club is a North Side fixture. It’s young, fun, and doesn't take itself too seriously.

You’ll find a dance floor here, though the connected café next door is where you’d grab food. It’s useful for a quick bite before or during your night.

The outdoor patio is the real draw, especially when it’s warm. It fills up, and you’ll see why it’s a good spot to hang out with friends.

They do special events. One is a monthly gathering on the last Thursday of each month, kicking off at midnight. Check their website for current hours, events, and specials. It’s also well-placed if you’re planning to hit other spots nearby.
