In honor of Cocktail Week, Eater convinced 9 bartenders in the Cities to disclose their go-to hidden gems when sitting on the other side of the bar. From dive bars to neighborhood spots, these eight picks span the Cities and suburbs, offering up cocktails, mixed drinks, and lots of places to get some good straight whiskey (do we sense a bartender trend here?).
Without further ado, here are 9 favorite hidden gem bars from Eat Street Social's Nick Kosevich and Ira Koplowitz, Marvel Bar's Pip Hanson and Peder Schweigert, The Strip Club's Dan Oskey, Parlour's Jesse Held, Saffron's Robert Jones, Café Maude's Elliot Manthey, and, in a late addition, cocktail man-about-town Johnny MIchaels (of La Belle Vie, Icehouse, and Union).
