Delilah's caters to artistic types, from filmmakers to musicians, as well as connoisseurs of fine liquor. Fashion protocol depends on what the deejays are spinning, but a Bohemian look is never out of place here. Also, look for more people during the week. And on the last Sunday of the month, Delilah's hosts an open screening for independent filmmakers and film students. It's the only place in Chicago where these underappreciated artists can publicly showcase their 16mm masterpieces for free.
Patrons saddle up to the ample bar.
With the exception of gooey blender drinks, there's something for everyone at Delilah's, especially if you're aristocratic about your drinking. Normally, this much high-quality liquor is only available at a retail store or a ritzy hotel bar, where you're sure to pay through the nose. Here you get the goods and some atmosphere to boot. Suffice it to say, you'll be blown away as you gaze toward the ceiling at the list of available beverages. Delilah's isn't the biggest place in the world, but owner Mike Miller refuses to put any limits on his inventory.
