About Wicker Park Tavern:

The old punk rock haven Borderline has undergone a major renovation into a beautiful, warm space with leather couches, mahogany bar, and amber lights -- which reflects the overall change of its rapidly gentrifying neighborhood.

Besides providing a comfortable atmosphere for hanging out with friends, Wicker Park Tavern is on top of technology, sporting 8 plasma TVs, free WiFi, and a satellite jukebox that takes credit cards and offers just about any song you can imagine. If you only have time on your trip to visit one night spot in Wicker Park, you certainly can't go wrong with this one.
