The Sixth

THE LOCATION OF YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD The Sixth, which opened in December 2015, is an award-winning cocktail bar from the Fifty/50 Restaurant group's cocktail crew. We're in the Lincoln Square neighborhood of Chicago. We are a hip, modern hangout that serves unique handmade cocktails crafted with specialized ice in an upscale but approachable setting. HOW DID WE COME UP WITH THE NUMBER SIXTH? Our name is derived from America's early distillation history. Whiskey production was once so popular in our country's history that it was estimated that one out of every six men was involved in some way, whether distilling, transporting barley, or milling it. We're also honored to be The Fifty/50 Group's sixth idea, a pioneer in developing creative and diverse restaurant and bar concepts. EVERY INGREDIENT IN THE DRINK HAS VALUE. We emphasize on using seasonal ingredients, being resourceful, and repurposing what we can, when we can, as we always attempt to pay attention to the city and world around us. We bow in homage to our heritage while looking to help take things ahead, drawing on the historic history of cocktails. The Sixth is available to host your next event for 15 to 55 people.
