A Vintage Hideout on the Edge of Logan Square

A one-of-a-kind cocktail bar

Opened in 2006, Weegee’s Lounge was named after the famous 1940s crime scene photographer Arthur Fellig, known by his nickname Weegee. What makes Weegee’s Lounge unique is its dedication to preserving a timeless, unpretentious vibe. Featuring an old-school shuffleboard table, classic cocktails crafted with care, and a welcoming back patio that feels like a hidden oasis. Unlike many modern cocktail bars, Weegee’s favors authenticity over attitude, making it a favorite neighborhood tavern for those seeking a relaxed and nostalgic drinking experience.
