Spend this season of love at the stylish and colorful cocktail bar and restaurant in the heart of River
West: The Dandy Crown. I got a chance to preview the love-themed pop-up bar, Tunnel of Love, which
is located on the enclosed patio that has numerous fireplaces and comfy chairs for a warm and cozy
indoor/outdoor vibe.
The pop-up bar welcomes cocktail lovers, connoisseurs, and everyone in between. The experience
offers an extensive list of decorated cocktails, as well as multiple non-alcoholic options. They truly
have something for everyone. I had the pleasure of tasting three of their specialty drinks from this
love-themed menu, my absolute favorite being, “What's Love Got To Do With It.” A delicious drink
made up of vodka, espresso, coffee liqueur, strawberry, and almond. This fun twist on an espresso
martini was as beautiful as it was delicious. I am convinced they added a splash of a love potion in it
because, boy, did I fall in love with this drink. It tasted exactly like a chocolate-covered
strawberry… but in a cup. Why chew your Valentine’s Day desserts when you can drink them?
Don’t forget your camera and your best going-out outfit because this spot is truly Instagram-worthy.
Every inch decked out in themed decor. There are several inflatables that are set up for the perfect
photo op. Perfect for big groups and couples.
Enjoy your next night out this February with your partner, friends, and family (even the four-legged
ones because did I mention the enclosed patio is dog friendly?) at The Dandy Crown. It’s even a
great place to go solo. When I previewed the event, I was immediately adopted into the nicest
group of women who were ready to have fun and spread some love.
Don’t just celebrate Valentine’s Day or Galentine’s day once a year, celebrate all month long at the
Tunnel of Love at The Dandy Crown. This event runs from February 1 - 28.
