Chicago’s New Cocktail Bar — Lemon 🍋

Name: Lemon
Price range: $$
Rating: 4.8

The former Grand Bar space in West Town has been reborn as Lemon — a sleek new cocktail spot. Visited on opening night. 🍹 Le Pommier – Calvados-based, with pear cider, cinnamon, and lemon — slightly spicy, tart, and fruity. 🍹 Jack Johnson – Whiskey, sherry, banana liqueur, and horchata — sweet and creamy. The vibe is moody and dim — perfect for dates, though the space feels a bit empty for now. Rumor has it they’ll host live music or cabaret shows later. Industry friends say the drinks are solid — a great post-dinner spot for cocktails. Just note: it’s mostly drinks, with little food — think “round two” after a meal. 📍 Lemon 1600 W Grand Ave, Chicago, IL 60622 #LemonChicago #CocktailBar #WestTown #DateNight #NewBar #ChicagoNightlife
