Chicago bars for me and my laptop on Saturday nights
January 6, 2020 8:00 PM
A laptop at a bar is fine most places on non-summer weeknights, but on Saturday nights the vibe often changes: it's louder and more crowded, and I feel awkward and distracted. Examples: Green Street Meats, CH distillery. Can you recommend Chicago-area bars I can bring my laptop to on a Saturday night and have it be socially acceptable?
FWIW, I buy stuff and I tip well.
I'll cast a wide net for any recommendations from hotel bars to local watering hole places with 2 taps, but bonus for: not super loud, has wifi, is more "cozy" than bright/harsh. I'm often in the loop, west loop, evanston, wrigleyville, and andersonville areas but am stoked to try anywhere easily accessible via transit.

I'm not a regular, but I think I've noticed people camped out with laptops at the Map Room on Saturdays. Never checked for WiFi.

I regularly have my laptop at Gio’s, at least until karaoke starts at 10.
