Coq D'Or

The coziest little basement bar to lounge around with a drink. You can never go wrong with wood panelling .

Good cocktails and an extensive menu of classics. Service is poor even for a lounge , and the room design makes things very crowded , but if you don't mind, it's an absolute throwback.

You're paying for the atmosphere, so make the most of it. Go on a Saturday night and prepare to be sent back in time and serenaded by the jazz singer . Try the Hardball or the Moscow Mule .

A few draft beers on offer which was surprising (Stella/Guinness/Samuel Adams). Proper bar tender/service in a relaxed atmosphere . ???? ???? ????

It doesn't.get any more real than this. The Coq D' Or opened the day after the repeal of Prohibition in 1933. Have a classic cocktail and enjoy the atmosphere & history.

Hands down this place offers the best service of any bar I have been to. They can make any classic cocktail you desire to perfection and will stop at nothing to make sure you get a wine you love.

This wood-paneled Prohibition-era lounge at The Drake will make you feel like a million bucks—even while you’re taking advantage of happy hour prices (Monday through Thursday, 5 to 7 p.m.). Read more

Amazing old school atmosphere with classic cocktails . Great place to unwind after work.

Perfect after dinner bar , piano player is really good.....

I've been coming here for years. Decent drinks, adequate menu, good service . Get the Snapper Soup !!

Great ambiance, delicious whisky selection and so much history. Worth the trip

The Bookbinder soup is delightful. The burger on the soft pretzel roll is a must....scrumptious!

Perfect Manhattan . Perfect as in delicious, not as in half and half vermouth .

A bowl is two cups when it comes to the soup . Bookbinder soup is a must! And it is made from snapper (the fish ) not snapper (the turtle ) nowadays. Delish!

nice atmposphere on this Drake 's bar . Cozy , nice service and nice selection of wines and beer .

This was the 1st place to legally serve liquor again in Chicago when prohibition ended.

Great atmosphere, friendly staff . A must in Chicago.

The best part about the Coq d’Or is the live music on weekends. Read more

Service industry discount Sundays and Mondays - 25% off entire check.

The sweet potato fries ..oh my....a must.

Happy I rediscovered this oldie but goodie! Dark, comfy atmosphere. Revamped menu. Gr8 for drinks, food all day 11am-2am

Make your drink an executive size for a few bucks more.

They revamped their menu. The slider sandwiches are great, especially the grilled chicken . Order the turkey club ; it's wonderful.

Not a chichi cocktail lounge , but probably the most solid drink in Chicago.

Try the Chimay Red Cap! It's amazing...

The bookbinder soup is a Drake classic for a reason. Everyone should have two bowls a day.

Decent Manhattan . But the environment is stuffy. Quiet , upscale , but unremarkable.

The ambiance of a speakeasy , maybe. A whiskey bar , this is not.

Moscow Mule and deviled eggs : Do it.

Bookbinder Soup is a classic

Great place for late night cocktails ... & Excellent service .

If they're serving the split pea soup , get it. Good stuff.

Terrible service. We walked in to a not-so-crowded bar , and were overlooked by servers for 15 minutes. We left without ordering anything.

Loving the new look of a #RealChicago landmark .

excellent atmosphere!

It's 5 o'clock somewhere!

Mad Men style "executive size " scotch

I may or may not be sitting next to Joan Holloway.

One of the most comfortable places in the workd

Get an executive of your favorite liquor , no better way to start a long night :)

The Executive Martinis will knock you on your @$$
