Hey Ginger:
Baton is okay (for a touristy drag bar), but...
While I am not intimately familiar with that particular part of town (60
miles from home!), I do have two suggestions.
For "just a bar" (?), you might want to check out Harry Carey's, (yes,
the late, great Cubs announcer) which I believe is in the general area
of the Chop House. They typically have a young, upscale clientelle and a
sporty atmosphere without too much "jockieness" (is that even a word?)
pervading the place.
For a more upbeat musical-type atmosphere, check out House of Blues,
located in Marina Towers (the two buildings on the river that resemble
corncobs) where there is almost ALWAYS something cool going on. Also a
younger crowd, and probably a bit more liberal than Harry's customers.
Just a thought.
Rock on.
