Bodega Taqueria y Tequila West Loop 7.5

Vibes: Girls Night Out Approved Happy Hour Hotspots Trendy Table Hotspots Group Dining Gatherings
The Chicago outpost of a Miami-born taqueria and tequila bar, Bodega West Loop brings DJ-energy, neon-lit interiors, and a menu of tacos, Cali-style burritos, and late-night cocktails to Randolph Street. It’s more about the scene and drinks-first vibe than quiet sit-down meals, but the burritos are a draw for nightlife crowds.
