A true gem in the heart of the Loop, Encore offers its business clientele, theater-goers, and locals a unique lounge experience tucked inside the Hotel Allegro, next door to the Cadillac Palace Theater, steps away from City Hall, and just a few blocks from the Magnificent Mile. During the weekday, a bustling lunch crowd gathers for hand-carved sandwiches and tossed salads (try their "Two Martini Lunch"), and in the evenings, the crowd leaves their worries at the door and indulges in Encore's own "Liquid Therapy." Whether seated at the white, spiral-shaped bar or a luxurious booth, every hand-crafted cocktail is created with your well-being in mind, and the bar menu is full of irresistable small plates that satisfy the most discerning diners.
