Clever Coyote at The Robey

Food + DrinkWicker Park · Cocktail Bar / 90s Arcade Bar Community-sourced, unverified
📍 2018 W North Ave, Chicago, IL 60647

Clever Coyote is The Robey hotel's '90s-throwback bar, and it commits to the bit: tiki-style cocktails, a pool table, a Street Fighter arcade cabinet, classic Nintendo, board games and a soundtrack that never leaves the 80s, 90s and early 2000s. It's one of four bars inside the Art Deco tower at Damen, North and Milwaukee — the others are Café Robey downstairs, The Up Room on the 13th-floor roof and the Solana pool bar — and it's the one built for a cheap, loose weeknight rather than a skyline photo.

$$

The happy hour is about as simple as they come: every day from 5 to 7pm, every item on the menu is $9, drinks and food alike, with the single exception of the shareable Fishbowl. That covers the tiki-style cocktails and the flavor-packed wings the bar is known for, plus the rest of its bar-bites menu, which keeps going late for after-hours cravings.

There are no reservations — it's walk-in only — and it runs 5 to 11pm Sunday through Thursday and until 1am Friday and Saturday, a short walk from the Damen Blue Line and The 606.
