Our Story

The Boss Bar was established in 1987. We are located at the corner of Clark and Hubbard in Chicago’s premier River North neighborhood.

The Boss Bar is a classic, timeless establishment that attracts after-work professionals and also hosts a lively late-night experience until 4 am Sunday-Friday and Saturdays until 5 am.  We are proud to have been serving Chicago for over 25 years. Our establishment celebrates key members of our community from the past to the present and strives to provide a comfortable and consistent environment for our guests. Come on in for a game, after-work, or late-night, and experience all The Boss Bar has to offer.
