There's beer and late-night food in the quiet front room, but the Beat Kitchen is worthy of recognition as one of the best venues in the city outside of Wicker Park for double or triple bills of excellent, little-known local and touring bands. Tuesdays are set aside for the Chicago Underground Comedy stand-up showcase.

Mon-Thu 4PM-2AM, Fri 11:30AM-2AM, Sat 11:30AM-3AM, Sun 11:30AM-2AM
