Sidebar Hospitality Brings Two Jems to Chicago

By W. A. Muller

Hubbard Inn, located at 110 West Hubbard Street, features European inspired small plates, quintessential mid-century cocktails and old world décor, making this eccentric River North establishment one of Chicago's preferred dining and nightlife destinations.

The dinner menu consists of flatbreads, snacks, salads and smaller portions, perfect for sharing. The bacon-wrapped dates, seared scallops and lamb meatballs are all highlights from the small plates section that are not to be missed! The large plates and sandwiches cater to all taste buds with a bison burger on the menu and a grilled whole fish coupled with pickled vegetables depending on if a guest is going guilt-free or over the top.

Barn & Company is one of Chicago's top BBQ destinations– thanks to Pit Master Gary Wiviott. Gary has written several BBQ cookbooks, such as Low & Slow: Master the Art of Barbecue in 5 Easy Lessons, and is a co-founder of the Windy City BBQ Classic. He has brought the traditional goodness of Memphis, Kansas City and Texas-style barbecue to Chicago.

Barn & Company redefines the all American smokehouse and BBQ shack, with interior elements like reclaimed barn wood walls, rusted tin ceilings, warehouse barn lighting, sleek cement countertops, large open kitchen, wood burning pit, big boy smoker and a wraparound courtyard for al fresco dining.
