In Short – Industrial meets luster in the herringbone slate floor, brick walls, long concrete bar and dramatic votive candelabra at this Milwaukee Avenue spot. Young, attractive professionals mingle with the neighborhood's remaining starving artists to a pop-heavy soundtrack courtesy of a live DJ. Drink options include a full bar as well as a do-it-yourself menu featuring 20 sugar-free flavored syrups in flavors like peach, lychee and blood orange.
