Editorial Review for Delilah's – by Citysearch Editors
The Scene
The clientele has softened since Delilah's was Crash Palace, but it remains fueled by owner Mike Miller's passion for whiskey and rock and roll. Besides having one of the city's best jukeboxes (Hank Williams, Sex Pistols, James Brown and local indie rock), Delilah's features DJs from Chicago's music subcultures spinning selections from their personal collections five days a week. Local musicians spin on a semi-regular basis. Employees of record labels like Estrus Records (garage rock) and Bloodshot Records (insurgent country) have also made appearances. Count on hearing punk rock, country, metal and Brit pop on various nights.
The Draw
If you like whiskey, there are 150 different reasons to set up camp at the bar. Delilah's frequently updates the list of Kentucky bourbons, Tennessee and Irish whiskeys, and scotch as well as the extensive collection of other liquor and 150 beers.

This is a fun place. They always have a drink on special for $2, and very often it includes import beers or Jack Daniels. The jukebox is without a doubt the best! They also have an old arcade game machine next to the stairs. The people are nice and friendly, but very often the place gets packed with a very young crowd. If you are looking to meet people 25+, this Delilah's would not be it.
Pros: Music, Drink specials, Athmosphere
Cons: Gets overly crowded, People are too young
