For over ten years Simone’s has been located in the Pilsen neighborhood of Chicago offering a great bar and grill experience. It’s a fantastic environment for mixing with friends, colleagues and neighbors. We have something going on most nights whether it’s DJs, trivia, karaoke and live performances with DJs.
The interior of Simone’s is undeniably unique with two distinct bar areas and seasonal outside space. Using various reclaimed architectural artifacts, the decor includes a bar-top built from a bowling alley lane, graffiti-scarred high school chemistry table tops and booths built from old pinball machines.
The use of reclaimed materials fits in with Simone’s commitment to responsible and green-friendly practices which also includes a rooftop herb garden and banks of solar panels.
Simone’s offers a fantastic platform for performance and presentation, including two main rooms, each with its own premium sound and PA systems.
Hovering over the end of the front room, beyond the bowling lane bar, is the main DJ booth, complete with a cage to hold all the groupies. Around the corner of the front room lies a columned seating area with booths woven of old seat belts.
Following the rear walls of the front room is a band of graffiti created by local street artists. Through the doors at the back of the front room is Simone’s Lab, another bar and performance area which focuses on art exhibition, salon-style discussions and performance and cultural events.
Sound fun? We think it is! Come by and join us for food and libations in the Pilsen neighborhood of Chicago

Stop in for a drink and good conversation with Stevie and Abel. Pizza and PBR on Mondays is a solid deal. Love the rotation of 80s classics on the CRT

Staple of the neighborhood. They do everything with quality and are a model of consistency with both food and drinks. A "come as you are" bar/eatery without any pretentious nonsense you see elsewhere. Come eat, drink and exchange some banter.

Ask for just sweet potato fries! They give you a mix of sweet potato fries and regular fries, and they're both tasty, but the sweet potato are amazing!

Simone's does a little bit of everything. The beer specials keep me coming back and the karoke nights. I miss the burlesque shows but love the atmosphere. Would come back more if they bring back burlesque. They are a great bar, I have literally met best friends ther
