Three Dots and a Dash is a subterranean tiki bar that transports guests to a tropical paradise in the heart of Chicago. Located steps from the Clark/Division Red Line station, the bar is accessed through a discreet alley entrance marked by a glowing blue sign. Inside, the space is adorned with bamboo, thatched roofs, and vintage tiki artifacts, creating an immersive escape from the city. The menu features classic and original tiki cocktails, including the namesake Three Dots and a Dash, served in ceramic mugs shaped like tikis or skulls. Small bites like pupu platters and coconut shrimp complement the drinks.
