Fathom
Cocktail Lounge · Chicago, IL
About
Fathom is from the same owners as Dorothy, Chicago's beloved lesbian bar, but it has its own personality. This nautical-themed cocktail-lounge splits the difference between upscale and dive, with a sleek interior and a relaxed crowd of mostly 30-somethings.
The space is compact, so it fills up fast on weekends. Regulars know to arrive early if they want a seat at the retro bar. It's a good spot for a quieter pre-game before heading to Sidetrack down the street.
