Marge's Still

Old Town · Bar Community-sourced, unverified
📍 1758 N Sedgwick St, Chicago, IL 60614

Marge's Still has been pouring drinks on Sedgwick Street since 1885, which puts it in the running for Chicago's oldest continuously operating bar — it even kept the lights on through Prohibition as a speakeasy.

$

There's nothing curated about the place; it's a straightforward neighborhood tavern that's survived nearly a century and a half by not trying too hard to be anything else.

No happy hour deals, no social media presence to speak of — just a long bar and a longer history, which is the whole draw.
