Juicy Wine Company
Update: Join Rodney Alex of Juicy Wine Company for their $5 brunch. That's right: each menu item is just five smackers! Options include Juicy eggs, Harold's chicken and waffles, the Hippie breakfast (yogurt, fresh fruit and homemade granola), and--of course--Bloodies and Mimosas. Brunch is served Saturdays and Sundays 11am-3pm.
And when you're looking for a great evening lounge for drinks, dining, and cool tunes, stop in to Juicy Wine Co. (now with a cozy outdoor patio). At Juicy, the wine, sake, and food are several notches above most late night options in Chicago.
Here's a fresh gem for an afternoon or night out with friends!
Partners Rodney Alex and Alex Pearsall have created an inviting, smart hang-out/retail hybrid. The atmosphere downstairs at Juicy is intimate and modern, a great space to hang out with friends. Upstairs the volume turns up a notch. Most nights starting around 9:30, a DJ spins and it's a party.
At Juicy Wine Company, you can enjoy boutique wines typically only available at restaurants where you pay a considerable mark-up. At Juicy, you can enjoy these delicious wines at retail prices plus corkage fee ($15.00) - a real deal. In addition to hand-selected boutique wines, Juicy carries American Artisanal, Spanish, Italian and French cheeses. And after a six-month waitlist, the much in demand cured meats from Armandino Batali are finally available. What a treat!
Be sure to introduce yourself to Rodney when you check out Juicy Wine Co. He's the perfect host with a simple philosophy. Rodney wants you to relax and drink a big glass of wine (which he affectionately calls "the DIVA") and discover for yourself if you like it. This is a soulful experience, he says. And what better way to learn about wine than to drink and enjoy it? Tastybeat could not agree more.
Juicy's offbeat vibe might be just the New Year's Eve destination you've been looking for. They're calling it Juicy's New Year's Eve Revolution. Rodney says it's their revolt against spendy restaurants with over-priced food and wine that have become the New Year's Eve norm.
Two packages are available for the night:
Guerilla Movement ($75.00/person) This gets you unlimited premium wine, open bar, snacks, and all the Harold's fried chicken you can devour.
The Revolutionist ($800/table of eight -only available in upstairs room) This gets you the same as above, plus a bottle of Belvidere, 2 bottles of Dom Pérignon, special desserts created by Mindy Segal of Hot Chocolate, and party favors.
Cheers!
