The Welcome Back Lounge

Jason is the best of the best. One of the best bars in Logan by a landslide. Absolutely love this spot!

My daughter and I stopped by for a few drinks and some food and had a great time. We had the hibiscus cocktail and a lavender cocktail which were both creative concoctions of yumminess!! Combine that with the epic burger and Cancun Fried Chicken Sandwhich and it was a dinner to remember. The fried chicken was seasoned to perfection and not greasy at all. The combination of toppings made this the perfect summer sammy. The burger was also so very yummy with all the toppings. The vibe of this place was fun and kitschy with a bus in the back garden that acts as the bar in the space. So very fun!! Meanwhile, the inside bar area is right out of the late 70's/early 80's. The vinyl chairs and brown wooden bar bring me back to my childhood. Everything about this place exudes come, have fun and stay for awhile.

Wow! I was greatly impressed by this place! This review is more of a 4.5 than a 4, but nearly everything was perfect! I will start off with the excellent Scrappy Burger there. The menu doesn't do it much justice as it is WAY better than it sounds. The cooks here know how to make a juicy and tasty burger. I got it with bacon which was a good move. Nice, thick, bacon. The drinks were decently good as well. The area that lost the half star for me is the price. This place is very expensive for what you get. They do have a happy hour which you can get some fairly priced drinks and fries with a burger, but outside of this time, it is quite expensive. My burger was $10 (which was fine), but to add bacon, its an additional $5 and to add fries, its another $5. The amount of fries you get are pretty small for the price. My slushie was about $14 and it came in a smaller highball glass. Everything was delicious though so that counts for something! I REALLY hope the reason why this place has higher prices is so that they can pay their employees well. This is owned by a larger restaurant company so I can see this going either way. They make you order mostly from your phone and bring it to your table. They still charge a service fee (pretty small actually) and still request a tip. I still gave it because the service was actually pretty excellent here. Everybody seemed happy, had their schtick down for greeting, and mostly was speedy service. I am a little torn here between great and outstanding. The only real downside of this place is the price. Outside of that, the food, decor, and service is some of the best in Logan Square!

Very chill place to grab drinks with a bunch of friends. The back area with the bus is quite retro and cute. They've got some games too so we played Jenga and enjoyed! Priced more expensive than I would have assumed in my opinion for the cocktails.

I LOVE this bar. Jason the bartender was so amazing and helpful getting us drink swiftly. I came because someone told me they serve free hotdogs at midnight and they did not disappoint ! the hotdogs were yummy and i love that it attempts to sober people up. The music playing was also hit after hit after hit. whoever was on aux was doing a great job. I can't wait to go to this bar at midnight every night !

Stopped in to waste some time and get a cold drink & snack. Loved the vibe and super friendly bartender and owner. The attention to detail to create the best ambience is evident. The selection on tap is a nice blend of local flavors. Try the Rose Cider!

This place looks like a great time honestly. My friend and I went in for just a drink because we were walking around the area. The bartender was veryNice and helpful. The tang drink was good but the guava one was very sweet and syrupy, did not take any alcohol at all, could barely finish it. Only reason I gave it 2 stars is for the drink, everything else seemed great!

Great summer spot! Upon walking in everyone says 'welcome back'. We headed to the back patio with no reservation and sat ourselves. The van was converted into a bar where you can order at or place an order via the QR code on your table to be delivered. There's happy hour Monday-Friday from 5-7 pm. We stopped in after dinner so we just ordered a few mixed drinks ($6 each) and Jell-O shots ($4 each). There's also a bell on the bus you can ring to buy a round of Jell-O shots for the whole backyard! Will be returning for bingo Mondays!

Fantastic ambiance with great indoor and outdoor options. Very cool retro vibe with friendly service definitely a place you'll want to return to more than welcome back!!!

This place has been a favorite go-to on Sundays. Very chill, the energy the vibes. Saturday and Sunday brunch specials! Mimosaaa! The OJ is not just OJ it's perfect! Enjoy the backyard seating very vintage
