Logan Square's Gin Specialist
Scofflaw opened on Armitage Avenue in 2012 with an unusual focus: gin cocktails. The back bar holds around 60 gins from around the world. The cocktail menu rotates monthly and the drinks lean gin-forward, with thoughtful original cocktails alongside reliable classics.
The drinks are precise. The Aviation is benchmark. The seasonal Gin and Tonic programme uses different gins paired with carefully chosen tonics and garnishes. The food is small bar plates.
The crowd is Logan Square locals and mid-thirties cocktail enthusiasts. Pair with Sportsman's Club down the street for a complete Logan Square evening.
