What people say

Trace, located on North Clark Street in Chicago, is a must-visit pub for night owls and sports enthusiasts alike. This tavern has been a late-night staple in the Wrigleyville neighborhood since its opening in 2001. What sets Trace apart from other bars in the area is its unique atmosphere that contrasts the typical Wrigleyville bar stereotype. While you can find a wide selection of premium and domestic beers and top-shelf spirits, Trace also offers a rock 'n roll lounge-like nightlife during the off-season.

Trace is not just any ordinary bar; it's the official home of The University of Michigan viewing parties in partnership with the Michigan Alumni Club of Chicago! So if you're a Wolverine fan, this is your go-to spot to catch all the action. And if you're looking for a place to host your next private party or event, Trace has two party rooms available that are perfect for any occasion.

What's more, Trace is dog-friendly and hosts an industry night. It's no wonder why Trace has become Wrigley's favorite 4am bar! So come on in after all Wrigley bars close and enjoy the unique atmosphere that only Trace can offer.
