Established in 2025, Blind Wolf is a modern speakeasy tucked behind an unmarked door in Lakeview. Once home to the legendary Room 13, the space has been reimagined with a sharper, more modern edge—while still honoring its roots in Chicago’s nightlife scene.
 

Our vibe fuses Prohibition-era swagger with today’s craft culture, candlelight, a whisper of gangster noir, and cocktails built with precision, smoke, and story.
 

The wolf in a fedora is our north star: sharp, mysterious, and unapologetically Chicago (look closely, you’ll catch the skyline in his shades). Inside, the music is curated, the lights stay low, and the hospitality is high-touch. Every pour, whether a timeless classic or one of our signature creations, is a ritual meant to be savored.
 

Weekly themes and live sets keep the room fresh, while the password remains simple: bring good energy. Welcome to Blind Wolf—where the night holds a secret, and every glass has a purpose.
