Weekend Photos: Bonny’s

Posted Nov 22, 2010 at 03:35 PM

Dear The Whistler,
We love your finely crafted cocktails at ridiculously recession-proof prices, but shuffling our feet on the sidewalk as we wait to get into what’s essentially a neighborhood bar can feel just plain silly. Enter Bonny’s (2417 N. Milwaukee Ave.; 773-486-8480), a black-as-stout 4 a.m. dive just a few paces south on Milwaukee, which quietly reopened under the management of the Boiler Room guys earlier this month. Pros: plenty of seats for Logan Square hipsters, no beer over $5 (from PBR to Wittekerke), that so-late-it’s-early last call. Cons: a 10 p.m. opening time, a faint eau de basement, and that so-late-it’s-trouble last call. Don’t get us wrong, The Whistler: We still love you. Sometimes we just want to see other beers. (Browse our photos of Bonny’s below.)

About Seen on the Scene

Call it bar hopping by proxy: Each week we send our photographers into the thick of the action to capture the latest openings and the most buzzed-about events; then, on Mondays, we post the photos here, where you can view them without getting elbowed in the side or having a drink spilled down your pants. You’re welcome. And for those who do run into our photographers out and about, be sure to smile for the camera.
