America's Bar is somewhere between an upscale restaurant and a casual bar, though it still maintains a neighborhood atmosphere. A beautiful day begs for dining alfresco, and lunch or dinner in the outdoor café just might be the answer.

America's Bar has the only dueling-piano player show in the northwest suburbs. Enjoy distinctive martinis, diverse menu options, a 60-seat outdoor cafe, renowned DJs and dancing.

Average cost: $10-$20
