We came here for the Sparkling Tasting NYE Prep and had such a great experience. We tasted 12 different wines, and the distributors were extremely knowledgeable! We learned a lot about fermentation and even discovered something new, especially with the pét-nats. The staff were friendly and genuinely enjoyable to talk to, and the event was very well organized. I also loved the atmosphere, cozy with a modern touch. After the tasting, we stopped by the bar and ordered a glass similar to our favorite wine from the tasting, and it was delicious. The bartender was very attentive as well. We also tried the cheese platter and it was amazing, the seed crackers with the cheese and apricot jam paired perfectly together. This was our first time here, but it definitely won't be our last. We had such a great time and will absolutely be back. read more

Went on a saturday around 4 for some mid day drinks with my friends. The sparkling orange drink is delicious but a bit pricey. The bartender was awesome. I love how much space there is but it's better at night because when we got there it was super bright inside and no music was playing so the ambiance was a little off. Overall it was a great spot to chat and catch up while enjoying some drinks. read more

Such a fun spot! Great vibes and a funky, playful interior. They have a solid happy hour and great deals on wine bottles, which makes it an easy place to hang out. They currently have a Motorshucker popup. We ordered the charcuterie board, which was solid, and the disco chips, which were a little too greasy for our liking. The crab roll was refreshing and really tasty. Definitely worth checking out! read more

Showed up for friends birthday party tonight. Immediately as I walked into the line the fat bouncer told me to leave. So confused, but as he explained he said he saw me finishing my drink entirely down the street and that he wouldn't let me in for that reason (Keep in mind my first drink of the night and truthfully was completely sober). How does this have any implications on the business? Even though I had politely asked to reconsider, he doubled down on the insults and rude attitude. I stayed the bigger man, did not get angry, and simply left with a portion of our group to another bar. He's on such a power trip trying to impress his bum friends who were keeping him company and smoking outside the front door. When your first interaction with a place is a guy that treats customers like they're getting into the most prestigious club in Chicago, it takes away any future interest for me to want to go there. They need to get rid of this guy. I've actually had some fun times here last year but I remember having another bad experience with him then too. We had a group of 30+ people, most of whom were already inside. I told them about our experience today and will advise my friends to go elsewhere next time. read more

What a fun place to spend a Sunday afternoon @ Easy Does It! Mind you, I was the oldest person there by 100 years (I'm prone to exaggerate) but my #3 son was there with his significant and me and my wife just like being with them. Apparently Easy Does It have these "Once a Month" Sunday themed events that really packs them in: Paella Night Weintoberfest celebrating German Wines We were at their 5 Year Anniversary with DJ's and a ton of food These gatherings are pretty damn cool - The wines they serve are very good and we had plates and plates of very good oysters on ice. The music was loud and everyone had a smile on their face. What else could be better! read more

This is the vibe! Drinks are strong and the service is great. Open seating and order at the bar. It's a very chill vibe in the day but when the do set starts it gets bumping and it's nonstop dancing by the stage. I need to come by when they have food events. Best time with the girls here or a fun date night. read more

TL; DR: lots of desk space Great place for a big group of people. Warning: if it's sunny, know that there is not much shade in the back outside! Also, the Blue line runs by every couple of minutes on the weekend. They have food outside as well, but I didn't try it. Not sure if I'd go back because of the shade situation, but had great cocktails read more

Fun place to grab a drink with friends in Logan Square. Parking is very limited and difficult to find due to parking permit restrictions, but if you're a local it's a great place to checkout. They offer a few bites and charcuterie and have ample seating throughout the bar. read more

Heard about the thursday wine tastings and decided to try this place out with a couple friends. Totally loved it! We came for the b-side oregon wine tasting, and our guide was a very silly yet intellectual man who led us on a perfect tasting experience. He really hyped up each of the areas where these wines were coming from and drew from his personal knowledge of these sort of small-business growers and their methods. We got to try six wines for $10 per person, with pretty good sized pours. I tried an orange wine skin-contact pinos gris named tomato ramato, and was very impressed. The back patio seating was awesome, with plenty of space. Easy does it was also hosting a birria taco pop-up at the same time, so got to enjoy some tacos for dinner. I hope to come back for another tasting! read more

The patio is great in the warmer weather and it's nice to have some drinks with friends back there. I've also been here when it's very busy with a dj and it's fun, but the crowd can be a bit rowdy which is off-putting and caused my friend group to leave. The staff provide great service and I would definitely come back! read more

Cute place, large outdoor patio which is great for snow free days. They have an inside as well. This place has good wines, chilled well, and the staff are casual and nice. When sitting outside the bathroom is in a weird / creepy place. You go up an industrial metal stair, around some corners, inside and down a hall. Definitely doesn't feel comfortable at night. read more

Easy Does It - Sparing white wine - Bars Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Easy Does It is listed in the Top 10 wine bars in America!!!! This place is straight-up cool. From the street, Easy Does It looks like a wine store. Once you show your ID you can walk up the staircase and the wine shop transforms into a cool wine bar and lounge. Food & Wine: The wines at this establishment are constantly changing. They have it all: white, red, sparkling, rose, and orange wines! Yes, I said orange wines! Try it! But don't worry, you don't have to be a wine snob to enjoy this lounge. They also offer cocktails, ciders, spirits, and beer. If you're getting hungry they have snacks. I recommend the cheese plate or popcorn to keep the good times rolling. Service: Ask for Francisco! He is the best sommelier in town. If you need a recommendation or just want to talk about wine, Francisco is the man. Overall, the staff is extremely friendly and attentive. I like to sit at the bar so I can easily get my drinks and have a clear view of the live entertainment. Ambiance: This is a huge lounge, with separate areas depending on the size of your party. From time to time Easy Does It has live entertainment! Check out the Instagram page @easydoesitchicago for all the details on upcoming events. Tonight was Jazz night. Overall: On the top ten wine bars in America list. Great for date night! Ask for Francisco for recommendations. Large space. Lounge seating areas. Chill vibe. Great for small or large groups. Live entertainment by local talent. You can go by yourself and meet great people. read more

Great service, great vibes and would 100% come back. Wish I would have found this place sooner. 10/10 would recommend

This is such a fun place. The vibes are great and the servers are so nice. I will definitely come back and celebrate life events here

Great happy hour deals. Went on a Friday at 5:30 and there were a few people but not packed.

Perfect spot for a low stakes date. Wine is amazing, it always hits and the bartenders are always knowledgeable and kind.

Went for a friends birthday and we wanted to have a good time, dance and celebrate her. Immediately when we walk in the bouncer is super rude and dismissive there was 5 of us and he got mad we were holding the door for our friends to come in...once we get upstairs it only got worse. This is by far the worst customer service I've ever experienced. Everyone I encountered was super nasty and on a power trip and this is disappointing as we chose this place to celebrate a friends birthday, never again will we make that mistake. read more

We came to East Does It with a small group and had a scheduled wine tasting. The staff was friendly and did a great job. We tried 6 different wines. They brought them out one at a time, told us a bit about the winery it came from, how it was made, and what it tastes like. It was educational, but also pretty casual and not too intense. All of the wine was fantastic and our guide did an excellent job taking care of us. They served us at our own pace and ensured we had a great time. The location itself is very cool. I would love to come back sometime when I am in the neighborhood to sit down and have a glass or two. Great place to bring a friend or group of friends for some conversation. read more

You know... I wish I could say that this spot was a perfect venue for a Sunday afternoon date... but my date didn't show. Sat around drinking wine on the happy hour menu and chilling with the staff. They were super cool and fun to hang out with. The wines they featured were well diversified and each brought their own flare. I had a fresh reisling and a few pungent wines. The pungent ones were good but i wasn't quite in the mood for them. Sunday afternoon for me means JUICE! it's a seemingly fun venue and I would encourage anyone who is looking g for something chill to do solo or with friends in Logan square check it out. They do pop up events and pop up food service. I love the concept especially when it's intended to highlight the rest of the local industry! read more

The ambiance is so cute! It's a wine bar but it's very lounge and I love that. It doesn't give club vibes at all but if you wanted to dance you could! Very cute, sophisticated, and chic. It's great for an after spot after dinner or early plans elsewhere! The service was very nice! I do like the open tab vs immediately closing out bc I can't get service. Every bartender was attentive and knowledgeable. The best part are the taco trucks that arrive outside during the later part of the evening. My brand are tacos @damnthosesteaktacos on IG & TikTok. They don't have food so having them pull up outside is so clutch after having a few Frenchies . Unfortunate I have no pictures because I was too busy having fun! I definitely recommend coming with friends for a nice night out. Maybe I can pause for a pic next time but I some reviews need ,no pics, just the experience itself! Have fun every and cheers read more

Snacks are fire. Wine is incredible. Tunes are always good. Jonathan R was our bartender. Couldn't imagine a kinder welcome into a space than his smiling face. The bar back Fidel was also incredible. To say we'll be back is an understatement. We need more Jon and Fidel in our lives. Thank god we came here. read more

Such a cool vibe. I felt cool being there. The wine selection is simple and detailed. The bartender was fantastic to chat with and gave great recommendations. The space was large with an industrial aesthetic, but the decor and lighting made it feel cozy. We were there on a Monday, without realizing it was a jam night, and was surprised with some fantastic Jazz music. Will be back for more. read more

If you are looking to expand your horizons with complex wines and heavy heavy cocktails, I recommend stopping by Easy Does It. The focus here is on natural wines, which have minimal intervention and can be quite unorthodox - very different animals than organic or biodynamic wines, although they can share similar qualities. These wines bring the funk and effervescent tartness (though not in the same wines). There is also a small selection of curated cocktails, of which the Stirred is a standout. With cognac, rum, rye, Averna and coffee liquor, your black heart will be pulsating! They can also make most classic cocktails. Service is friendly, and the space is very fun. The indoors is a maze of rooms and bars, with a stage for local bands - we heard some excellent free jazz during the last half of our recent visit. In the summer there is a massive patio out back. The indoors is on the second floor and to my delight, it is accessible via an elevator. We will return again and again. read more

Easy does it is a such a lowkey spot to hang out on a Saturday night. They have a patio where you can get local food from vendors that are on rotation which is a nice add to the establishment. They are more of a wine bar and the bartenders are very knowledgeable and friendly. The vibes are nice with music blasting and plenty of space to sit and chill whether it's a night out with friends or a date night. Later into the night looks like it turns into a dance party they have a space for dancing and a disco ball. Would come back here. read more

I pass by Easy Does It all of the time, but have only been twice. The space is well-designed and includes a small wine shop, large upstairs area, and large outdoor area in the back. They throw wonderful events all throughout the year. Some of the events feature guest vendors/small businesses and they also will have ones like wine tastings. They always have excellent wines, but they also have cocktails, beers, and non-alcoholic options for people that may not want wine. I highly suggest checking out their website for happy hour specials. They currently have a happy hour from 2-4pm on Saturdays that includes discounts on several wines, beers, cocktails, and non-alcoholic options. read more

Would have given it 5 stars, but the doormen were very rude. First, my purse was searched and I was asked to open the top off of my water so the doorman could smell it and make sure it wasn't alcohol. I know it's a thankless job, but this man was very rude for no reason. There are plenty of establishments to choose from to get an after dinner drink. I will not be returning. read more

Had no idea this gem was here! Super close to my apartment and new patio destination. Loved the wine selection and vibe. The patio was super cute and the ambiance was chill and inviting. Seemed like the upstairs turns into a dance party later at night so I will have to come back and stay later. Give the orange wine (dreamsickle) a try - it was lovely. They have a bar on the patio for wine and beer I believe and then cocktails are available upstairs at the indoor bar. read more

Easy Does It is one of my favorite summer patio spots in Logan Square. The patio area is spacious and really relaxed- there's some sun protection but be sure to ask for that if you need it. The drink selection is always changing and has something for everyone. Right now they have Makku available, which is a really interesting Korean rice based beverage, and I also really enjoyed the frozen rose to cool down. I've had a great selection of ciders here as well including some unique hard to find ones. The staff are really nice although you don't interact with them a lot because everything is done through the QR codes at the table. They're really attentive with making sure you have enough water and everything you need, though. One final note- the busyness level can vary widely here so I recommend always making a reservation just in case. read more
