Double Chicken Please

The line outside on Allen Street is the first clue: this place turned a bar into a phenomenon. Double Chicken Please runs as two different experiences under one roof. The front room is casual, bright, and built for quick hits, including chicken sandwiches plus drinks served on tap style systems with seasonal cocktails and beers. Past the partition, the back room shifts into a more focused lounge where the menu leans into culinary cocktails that mimic specific dishes, not just ingredients. It debuted at No. 6 on The World’s 50 Best Bars in 2022 and topped North America’s 50 Best Bars in 2023, which tracks with how influential it has been for the current wave of food inspired cocktail menus.
