High Craft, Low Key

After isn’t about white tablecloths or hushed voices. It’s about unmatched cocktails, loud laughter, good music, and an authentically laid-back spirit. It’s a come-as-you-are bar—because a great drink should make you feel something, not just impress you.

Opened by Michelin-starred Chef Curtis Duffy reinventing what a cocktail bar can be—seasonal, boundary-pushing drinks, grounded in technique, built for fun. After is where culinary precision meets barroom revelry.

After was named one of the United States' Top 15 bars by Food & Wine in Spring 2024. In 2023, Esquire put After on their Best Bars in America list. The New York Times featured After in their 2023 "36 Hours in Chicago."

Lincoln Park

Over het restaurant

The Gatsby is a prohibition era inspired speakeasy hidden directly above The Bourgeois Pig Cafe, in the center of the historic Lincoln Park neighborhood of Chicago. As fortune would have it, The Gatsby just so happens to be a block away from where the infamous bank robber and gangster John Dillinger was shot and killed by federal agents nearly 100 years ago.

You are invited to Gatsby’s party!
As you pass through the hidden entrance and authentic, period steel door, sounds of classic jazz, crooners and big band fill the velvety rooms, and antique portraits in the library study are illuminated by the gentle glow of flickering candles. In some far away room a grandfather clock chimes on the hour. As you ponder the century, our expert bartenders create bespoke prohibition-era cocktails crafted to match the literary vibe of this Great Gatsby inspired speakeasy.
