Worthy Picks
7.9
Common Decency is an ’80s-inspired cocktail bar on Diversey where a gluten-friendly menu of snacks, burgers, and steak frites runs until around midnight. It’s more about the room—neon, strong drinks, and a crowd drifting in after other service jobs—than pure burger worship, but the late kitchen makes it a viable midnight option.
Must-Try Dishes:
Classic Burger, Thrice-Cooked Wings, Steak Frites
What Makes it Special: Cocktail-first bar with better-than-average late-night burgers and bar food.
