Freezer martini, served at 10°F. Flavors popped and the mouthfeel was terrific. Very happy.

Bisous is a wonderful, trendy bar in Fulton Market. Expect a bit of a line when going on a Friday night (around the 8pm time frame at least), but once you're inside the wait pays off: super friendly staff, very helpful in making your next drinks choice, and cosy interior bringing it all together. Their wine list is impressive and a tad funky, matching the vibe perfectly.A perfect spot to bring a date, catch up with a friend or meet new people.

Gave this place another try and had an absolutely amazing time thanks to the wonderful staff and manager. Since opening, Bisous has totally refined their beverages and service. Everything here is top notch. This is a great spot for drinks with a friend or a romantic evening. The vibe here was great-- it was busy yet intimate and perfect for an early Friday night. We ordered a variety of cocktails off of their menu and enjoyed every one. I especially enjoyed the signature Paloma. The pink squirrel was deliciously creamy and unique! These drinks were innovative and unlike other cocktail bars I've been too. I also enjoyed the small bites menu here. We tried the bonbons. These are made in house and rotate through a variety of flavors. Ours were cherry, chocolate, and hazelnut. Delicious!

I tried the pink squirrel drink and it was so yummy! I asked for something sweet and the bartender told me to just blindly trust in him. He did not disappoint! I really enjoyed the drink, it tasted like a smoothie with the consistency.The other drink we tried was the reverse, the middle one in the pic which felt a little too strong for me.Ambiance is so cute! Definitely a romantic atmosphere and a great place to stop by for a drink with friends or a date!

Absolutely impecable cocktail lounge with excellent service, gorgeous ambiance, and delicious drinks. Ask to sit in the lounge for a French Cafe feel. Alex (our server) was delightful. The hostess was equally warm and so welcoming. 10/10!!

Came to the city to enjoy a lovely weekend getaway with my friends and randomly ended up here. It was so nice and laid back. I really enjoyed it. We got the French seventy-five and the pink squirrel and both were so delicious. The pink squirrel might be my favorite because it's sweet and reminds me of a frappe. Service was amazing and fast. Really enjoyed my accidental visit and would definitely return.

Love the vibes in here. Never a super long wait to get a table. Such a great spot for a night out with the girls, not too loud so you can still talk, and delicious cocktails! The bartenders also make drinks off menu so you'll definitely find something you like here!

Popped in Bisous while in Fulton Market and was surprised to have found this hidden gem. Service was very friendly, the ambiance is what I described as sexy-upscale cocktail bar, and my favorite is minimal noise levels (you can actually hear the waiter speak), all with a decent amount of cocktail, wine, and spirit menu options. I settled on the Cazenave 'Bel a Ciao' Semillon Bordeaux which was light and refreshing for a night cap. I was told by other customers that I should return for Happy Hour. I will be back!

Bisous is an outstanding addition to the Fulton Market/West Loop area of Chicago. My husband and I stopped by around 7:30pm on a Friday evening. I was initially worried that there would be a long wait when I saw a small group of people waiting outside the bar. After speaking to the outside host, he assured us that there likely wouldn't be a wait for a table of two people. After he checked inside, we were seated right away. Larger groups of people may have a bit of a wait for a table here. The bar was much bigger than I expected. There is a main seating area and then another section off the back. The decor is beautiful! I also loved the dark and romantic vibes. I normally don't gravitate towards martini's, but I was very intrigued by their martini menu. I ordered the Aristocrat ( Aged Aquavit, Apple Brandy, Oloroso Sherry, Cap Corse Blanc). This martini grew on me and I loved the multi-layered flavors. We both also ordered the Norwegian Wood cocktail (Apple Brandy, Scotch, Pommeau de Normandie, Maraschino). I loved the flavors from this cocktail as well.The service, cocktails, and atmosphere helped make this a memorable experience. I look forward to coming back again soon.

Loved coming here for a nightcap! The place is gorgeous and has this old school vibe but yet still modern. The chairs we sat in were so comfortable and each table was separated just enough that you really felt like you had your own space. We didn't get a chance to try the food. We grabbed their French 75, pink squirrel, and an espresso martini. All them were made to perfection! Our favorite ended up being the Pink Squirrel which I normally wouldn't go for because it of it being a "sweet drink" but it most definitely was not obnoxiously sweet. I can't wait to come back here!

Came by on Thursday night. Esquire article ranking got me in the door. The best bars in 2024 list. Went with the freezer Martini. Not my favorite variation on the Martini that would be the Vesper. Their martini is cold, refreshing. Bar had other patrons but it wasn't an overwhelming amount of folks I had to jostle against at the bar which I appreciate.
