Looking for a bar that goes longer than midnight or 1 am? Trace is Wrigleyville’s late-night staple since 2001. Located just 2 storefronts down from Full Shilling, and within walking distance of some of Chicago’s most well-known entertainment, we’re open late so your night can continue even after all the other bars close. Weekdays and Sundays, we’re open until 4 am, and Saturdays we go for an hour later, to 5 am. What’s more impressive? We’ve taken on the stereotype of the ‘sports bar’ and decided to go against the grain. We don’t just offer sports and beer here; we also offer a rock and roll bar and lounge that’s been in business for over 20 years.

Super fun place. Late night bar open until 4 every night with great bartenders and fun but firm security. On the weekends the manager is always at the front of the bar making sure everyone is safe and having fun. The Nintendo Switch on the big screen is an awesome addition on top of the Rock music playing whenever you come in. Highly recommend.

Mimi was such a pleasure to have as a bartender. Sweet and helpful. Would definitely come by again to hang out with her and play some Smash Bros on one of their TVs! The place has made a nice well sought change in the neighborhood after changing GMs.

Always a great time at Trace! Friendly staff, great drinks and specials. Open till 4am on Friday and 5am Saturdays. They do industry Only from 2am til close on the weekends so it's a great place to meet up with fellow bartenders servers and fellow industry peeps. They play great rock/punk/hair bands too!
