The cultural forces that be have decided cosmopolitans are officially back—and we aren’t mad about it. Here, some of the best spots to enjoy a cosmo in Chicago.
An iconic Chicago establishment since 1989, Gibsons Bar & Steakhouse serves a killer ice-cold cosmo, crafted with Ketel One Citroen, cranberry, triple sec and lime.
Gilt Bar seamlessly blends dining and drinking experiences with an opulent twist. Indulge in American classics, global wines and cocktails like a cosmopolitan in the elegantly playful atmosphere adorned with luxurious furnishings and amber-hued accents.
Step foot into the charming Vol. 39, where craft cocktails and gourmet fare transport you to a bygone era. Among vintage law books and tufted leather couches, enjoy a classic cosmopolitan in style.
Nestled in the North Center neighborhood, The Victor Bar has garnered city-wide acclaim since its establishment in 2016 for its meticulously crafted cocktails and welcoming atmosphere. Explore a diverse menu of libations, including the cosmo, for a unique twist on the classics.
Immerse yourself in a sensory adventure at The Aviary, where chef Grant Achatz and Nick Kokonas have crafted a groundbreaking drinking experience. Pushing the boundaries of mixology, innovative libations like the Ferrands With Benefits (featuring cognac, strawberry, banana, pineapple, and rooibos tea) prove The Aviary team is one of the best in Chicago.
