Bin 36


Bin 36

339 N Dearborn

312.755.9463

Four blocks north of the Chicago Theatre, and kitty-corner to the House of Blues, Bin 36 makes for a prelude to a momentous night on the town. With its far reaching ceilings, iridescent lighting and alluring features, oenophiles, entertainment seekers and cheese fiends find this site irresistibly convenient. 

Situated across from House of Blues, Bin 36 is not only for oeniphiles

 

An impressive list of handcrafted cheeses, imported from Spain, France, Italy—and Wisconsin too, instigates an excuse to sip fine wine and nibble on artisanal cheeses.

Novice wine drinkers need not be intimidated by the 50 different choices available on the wine roster. Bin 36 is all about making wine “approachable.” Meanwhile, wine epicureans in quest of the ultimate vino, may be overwhelmed by the 300 additional options, located in the wine cellar.  

For obvious reasons, wine and cheese seem to upstage cuisine. As service tends to become overwhelmed on Friday and Saturday nights, plan theatre, concert and other social functions, accordingly.
