Dorian’s

Venture through a petite record shop storefront in Wicker Park to discover Dorian’s, a cocktail bar built around music (or behind music, if you want to get literal). The elegant space boasts an Italian-made hi-fi sound system for vinyl DJ nights and a stage for live music—where the bar has hosted performances from luminaries like Jeff Parker and Makaya McCraven—plus a narrow menu of house cocktails perfect for sipping while you listen.
