Meat Market Mayhem
Last Updated: July 2008

If you're up for some wild action to celebrate the bachelor's last night of "freedom," here's a Chicago Trolley pub crawl where you can bribe the ladies so that the bachelor thinks he's "still got it":

Destination
Address
The Hook
Directions to the Next Place
Suggested Timing
Zella 1983 N. Clybourn

Though a bit pretentious with meal prices to match, Zella offers some top Lincoln Park talent along with an excellent beer garden.

Board the Chicago Trolley, and have the driver shoot north up Racine, and west (left) onto School until Southport. 7:00-8:15

To book a trolley, please contact Chicago Trolley for pricing & availability:

Chicago Trolley & Double Decker Co.
(773) 648-5000
chicagotrolley-charter@coachusa.com

Your pub crawl agenda is completely up to you. If you'd like to hire a guide, please be sure to mention that when you contact Chicago Trolley.

Schoolyard Tavern 3258 N. Southport

Schoolyard is one of the few "over 23" bars in the city and is stocked with Lakeview hotties.

South along Southport, southeast (left) along Lincoln, and east (left) onto Wrightwood. 8:30-9:45
Grand Central 950 W. Wrightwood

One of the latest pick-up joints to open in Lincoln Park, it's loud & obnoxious and you're going to love it.

Wrightwood east, north (left) on Clark until right before Addison. 10:00-11:15
John Barleycorn's Wrigleyville 3524 N. Clark

Never has a cover, always has lots of hot women and there's a huge dance floor upstairs; Moe's Cantina is the Mexican version next door with phenomenal kabobs (under the same ownership) and Red Ivy across the street offers a somewhat more upscale and trendier version of the same.

South down Clark Street, and east (left) onto Division. 11:30-1:00
Finn McCool's 15 W. Division They charge a cover up to $10, but it's the best chance you're going to get to see flashing chicks (upstairs). 1:15-4:00 (5:00 Sat)
