About this place Sofo

Sofo Tap is a neighborhood gay bar on North Clark Street in Andersonville, named for its spot just south of Foster Avenue. It's a low-key, local bar where you can talk without shouting, with an open layout inside and a large back patio that is the main draw in summer. Hours on file: 17:00-02:00 Monday to Thursday, from 15:00 on Friday, from noon at the weekend (until 03:00 on Saturday). Weekend afternoons on the patio are the busiest. Andersonville's other gay bars and restaurants are within a few blocks; Northalsted is a short ride south on the CTA.
