California Clipper

Fodor's Review:

California Clipper, in Humboldt Park, just to the west of Wicker Park, has a 1940s vintage look, including a curving 60-foot-long Brunswick bar and tiny booths lining the long room back-to-back like seats on a train. Alternative country acts and soul-gospel DJs are part of the eccentric musical lineup.
