Bar Bambi brings a burst of color and personality to West Town, staking its claim as one of Chicago’s most exciting bar openings of the year. Led by industry veteran Katie Renshaw, Bar Bambi offers creative cocktails from skilled bartenders in a vibrant and whimsical setting full of neon lights and colorful decor. The staff are also warm, attentive, and truly represent Midwestern hospitality to their core.
Continue the evening with a visit to next-door neighbor Brasero, which showcases wood-fired Latin-inspired dishes in a lively dining room.
Bar Bambi is currently walk-in only and does not accept reservations, so plan accordingly, especially on weekends. The neon lights, while being fun and striking, can also be a bit overwhelming if you’re extra sensitive to light.
